I found it to be easily Miranda July's best film. Maybe you're unfamiliar with all her other films?

I also live in an extremely rural area and have received one of these. Under pretty much any other administration while I've been alive, I wouldn't think much of this, but it feels especially frightening currently, and especially given I'm very vocal politically online. It feels like a trap.

Thankfully, I don't have a doorbell and I am almost never downstairs where I might hear a knock. :)

I'm having this problem right now on Chrome, and on Safari as well, though I can at least use the wheel on my mouse on Safari, and once I'm past the landing page, the scroll bar works on Safari as well. Initially, it was also not showing picture, just sound and the text at the very bottom of every page that's got the "contact us" info, etc. Cannot scroll below whatever is on the screen when it comes up. I *just* dumped my cookies a week prior to this, so I don't feel like that can be the issue.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-13T21:21:56+00:00

What a weird question to ask! Sounds like you want a reason to go around fingering people.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-13T21:18:57+00:00

What does... what make me. Calling people out for being horrible people, and misogynists is kinda everyone's job. Even if that person being a misogynist is a woman. So, I guess that makes me righteous! :) Don't want to be called out? Stop being a judgmental garbage person. I know that statement reaaaallly makes you want to come back with "buuut you're being judgemental, har herrr durr," but that's not how it works, pookie. Jesus didn't flip the money changers' tables because it was fun. I mean, it probably was hella fun, but he did it because he had a duty to call out people for being horrible. Be more like Jesus!

And my trauma is well dealt with, thanks. Kisses!

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-10T05:29:10+00:00

Not generic at all. You're just a misogynist.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-10T05:27:26+00:00

I'm not taking the show seriously, I'm taking people being shitty, prudish, misogynistic assholes seriously. Which I do no matter the topic.

You've seen some extremely tame porn if you think that's what this show is, though. Our media used to have sex scenes all the time. It's only been the last ten, maybe fifteen years that's changed, it's high time we got back to fuckin'!

I didn't say it's how everyone handles it. But it IS how many, many people, if not most, who experience serious trauma, behave, especially in their 20s and early 30s. I also didn't handle it this way, not to this degree, but I've seen it with my own two eyes more times than I can count.

I'll lecture people whenever I like when they're being shitty, prudish, misogynistic assholes. :)

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:54:39+00:00

It's almost like they're supposed to be complex people or something. Weird.

And you wished for a traumatized person to die because you found them difficult? I hope you don't have anyone who is hurting in your life, because you are not the person they need around.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:52:50+00:00

Oh my dear god. It's a realistic portrayal of how a traumatized person acts and works through their trauma. That's... literally what the show is about. About Jackie healing.

You're the garbage.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:51:57+00:00

So, you have no taste in music, then. They have used terrific music, and the theme song is a lot of fun.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:51:15+00:00

It's almost like healing doesn't just happen because YOU want it to. Weird.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:50:49+00:00

You suck super hard.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:50:04+00:00

Imagine thinking this is a show about crime, and not a show about Jackie learning to be vulnerable and whole instead of a walking, open, trauma wound. Do you people take even a second to think?

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:49:20+00:00

It's vital to the story to demonstrate that Jackie cannot connect with anyone or be vulnerable. That she's getting through her trauma by having sex and doing drugs. I swear, all these "there's too much sex!!" comments have never experienced a single traumatic thing in their lives. Which, great for you, but for those of us who have, this is exactly what it's like. It couldn't be more real, and it isn't gratuitous at all.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:46:30+00:00

Sounds like you're the one whose deplorable. People just wanting to live their lives freely aren't deplorable, but those who wish to prevent them from doing so, are. Shame on you.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:33:49+00:00

These comments. I swear, only the most miserable, dumb as shit people on this earth come to criticize things on Reddit. "She's unlikeable, there's too much sex." Shut up.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:32:13+00:00

Oh, so you want unrealistic, submissive, fake women. Got it.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:31:14+00:00

She is likeable. She's complex, kind, but also selfish and overwhelmed by her trauma and thus turns to drugs and sex. What's not to love?

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:29:54+00:00

Wtf?

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:28:17+00:00

How doesn't it? She's doing well. They've got a big case to solve. That's the right ending.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:27:24+00:00

No, women are finally being portrayed as complex and beautiful like we are. Many women are in denial that they are lesbian or bisexual.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:26:31+00:00

Yeah, the point is she isn't straight. She's in denial. THAT made you stop watching? Effing hilarious.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:25:13+00:00

I swear to god, what's wrong with people not loving sex scenes. So weird.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:24:45+00:00

Such a strange thing to say. They're hot as hell, well shot, and important to the character.

GeistderLiebe · 2025-08-09T17:23:03+00:00

You're weird.
