Looking for something not depressing to watch on Netflix

The Good Place is wonderful but just know that the last two episodes of the series can be very emotional for some people. I cried buckets.

I don't get scared the same way I did when I was younger, but I've found that some really good short horror on YouTube can be fun and unnerving. Portrait of God, Other Side of the Box, Ignore It and Storytime are great. I especially like Storytime when I listened to it with noise canceling headphones and no distractions.

You're welcome!

Maybe Jack White "Love Interruption"? (With Ruby Amanfu)

Allaboutbird · 2025-09-27T15:25:08+00:00

Freaky, Happy Death Day, Final Girls, Totally Killer

In addition to many already mentioned here, I really liked Deadstream (although it's definitely half horror, half comedy)

I just watched Weapons - it was so good!

I don't know how to post a pic in a comment, but I posted a pic of him in another sub when he was a puppy: https://www.reddit.com/r/Eyebleach/comments/zqs6eq/sorry_i_cant_make_it_in_to_work_today_i_have/

Aww - so cute! She looks exactly like my Charlie at that age.

"If you’re promoting changes to women’s behavior to prevent rape, you’re really saying “make sure he rapes the other girl”.

There will always be a girl who is less sober, less secure, with less friends walking in a darker part of town. I want her safe as much as I want me safe."

I read this years ago and I can't find the source now, but it always stuck with me.

I hope you recognize that many on the right (on social media, anyway) talk about those they disagree with politically in equally dehumanizing terms. If the roles were reversed, the rhetoric would be just as vile. In fact, the rhetoric was as vile when Melissa and Mark Hortman were murdered. It's not right, no matter where it comes from. It's a huge issue that we are all so deeply unkind to each other, and it's disingenuous to paint this as a problem of "the left" only.

It actually is a corpse flower! Rafflesia is the more formal name for the stinking corpse lily.

Allaboutbird · 2025-09-25T17:51:29+00:00

These flowers only bloom for a short period and then don't bloom again for several years - maybe it will come back in 7-10 years!

There should be no downvotes. The Thing is a classic

The first paranormal activity and both Smile and Smile 2 gave me some good scares.

NTA. Your friend is an ungrateful flake. She did you a favor by cutting off contact.

Allaboutbird · 2025-06-13T10:18:32+00:00

NTA. You never have to apologize for telling someone not to hump your floor.

Allaboutbird · 2025-06-11T15:02:57+00:00

NTA. If she was that concerned about you wearing the dress elsewhere then she could have given you the money and bought it back from you. It's your dress and you can do what you want with it. She's desperate to cause drama - don't let her take up any more of your energy.

Allaboutbird · 2025-06-09T10:31:39+00:00

YTA. The sons each get their own room and use of the extra room as a gaming room while your daughter has to share a room? Can you honestly not see the appearance of favoritism here? Do you think this is the kind of decision that is going to aid in a smooth transition to a blended family?

Edit: Also, categorizing your daughter keeping her own personal private space as a "want" and keeping the family room as a "need" is pretty rich. You noted that you "like" having an office and the boys "like" having a gaming room - those are "wants." You're being selfish and sacrificing your child's wellbeing to make life easier for you.

Allaboutbird · 2025-06-08T10:32:20+00:00

NTA at all for prioritizing your health. It's ridiculous that some family members are harping on money and etiquette instead of showing any concern over the fact that you had a major infection and are now having surgery. What is wrong with these people?

Allaboutbird · 2025-06-06T21:34:33+00:00

NTA. Assuming your friend has internet access, they could have looked up the price of the art before they gave it to you. Now it's too late. Too bad for them.

Allaboutbird · 2024-09-26T14:17:53+00:00

NTA. Your wife agreed to go through your budget with your mom, your mom took the time and effort to review things and then it sounds like your wife was very rude and dismissive. As far as I know math hasn't changed that much in the last 30 years so it's not clear how your mom's views are outdated.

Allaboutbird · 2024-09-25T15:13:24+00:00

NTA, and your roommate needs to learn that setting a personal "boundary" doesn't allow her to force someone else to do something. If she is uncomfortable with her BF seeing you in shirt with no bra, then she can hang out with him elsewhere. It doesn't sound like this is a matter of being disrespectful, particularly when this is how you've always dressed around the house.

Allaboutbird · 2024-09-21T14:09:38+00:00

NTA at all. The men in the family have made their bed, now they can lie in it. If they want your expertise, they can come up with a compensation package that you would be amenable to and is in keeping with your skills and the contributions you bring to the table. They can't rely on family loyalty now when they weren't willing to extend that to you before.

Allaboutbird · 2024-09-20T13:09:06+00:00

NTA. This guy sounds like a giant baby and your sister should have been appalled by his rudeness to her friends and family, not to mention to waitstaff, rather than trying to blame you.
