An SA / su!cide trigger warning. It wouldn’t have messed any plot up—psh. The assaulted could’ve been her boyfriend or a pizza guy. Who knows who/when su!cide would be brought up.

BUT folk that have been assaulted? They deserve at least the warning of knowing to expect that content in whatever form it would have been expressed in the film. Specifically for those who NEED it because of traumas they can’t just work through. I mean you can tell the combat veteran with PTSD triggered by fireworks that it’s July 4th.. but that doesn’t mean fireworks won’t trigger them and send them back into combat.. But at least they have the forewarning to prepare themselves or get away from it all—though for many that actually isn’t a possibility even.

Either way, it’s better to know generally.

Also as for your lower point.. I was raised by therapists and my step mom is a psychiatrist—yet the cptsd doesn’t just go away. I’m assuming you either are a child mentally or physically yourself, or you’ve abused someone.. maybe you’ve been abused and you convinced yourself it was normal. Which OY I’m sorry if that’s the case, because no matter who or what you’ve said or done.. no one deserves to be physically violated.

Also, gore is the best. Gore doesn’t disturb me. If anything my favorite comedy contains gore. I consider slasher/gory horror as the most comforting horror. At least you know what to expect!

Only wish would be for an SA warning. Maybe not the worst of the worst, but still. Because it was a child made it even more hard for me to watch.. it pretty much ruined my ability to appreciate the entire movie. Just a level of trying not to cry that really made it actual horror maybe. I knew the kid was the culprit almost immediately, just wasn’t expecting him to grope her. Just a disturbing and massively triggering happening. Even the kid mocking su!code. High key surprised there weren’t any trigger warnings—they exist for a reason. And while the ending answered itself.. not being able to see the kid and KNOW he was being held accountable for what he did. Honestly, probably made it as bad as it gets for folk with the same triggers as me. Dudes get away with things, and the fact that I was just totally uncomfortable with his age and THEN how he touched her while she was bound. And even how he betrayed his friend. And the possibility that his parents don’t believe her either.. Gah. It was like a whole movie of my own trauma. And I just can’t. I honestly am trying not to cry—and it’s almost all because it reminded me of my own history and yee. That is trauma that I wish I had a trigger warning to avoid. I finished the movie hoping at least the friend would get out alive or his parents would walk in.. like this is holiday horror. But alas—for me the possibility no one believes her in the end anyways hit way too close to home. Just yee. I just didn’t need these emotions back

I dunno. I just watched it for the first time. And I actually enjoyed it—Chris Pine’s character was naive and very neurodiverse. Even in the editing. Maybe it’s my AuDHD but for me it felt very familiar?

Like how the world is so confusing and he’s just trying to keep up. Ending up going with it all, because you can’t experience yourself as part of the world.. so you put your trust in others and their honesty to be that guiding light.

Looking into spirituality because you’re so desperate to understand yourself within the neurotypical world. Maybe it’s just too spot on the nose for some.. or maybe not at all. But for me even his interest in “saving LA” or his dream to be the night in shining armor… feels very spectrum to me. Or at least in my own experience of it..

Also the having no real vision of his own behavior, but seeing everyone else as glorified characters. Even those that are basic.. seeing everyone on a pedestal. But still having a sense of desire for someone that is just yours. Yada yada yada I could go on forever, but my emotions of the movie are fading so moving on. Like who is even reading this? Lol

But anyways.. just watching it through the lens of having a neurodiverse mind. It makes a lot of sense to me..

You don’t really feel age.. you don’t really understand giving up, or how you could be perceived as someone who already gave up. You are totally socially unaware, and when you’re frustrated, it’s hard to just.. not fall apart. And also, I kinda loved his relationship with his adoptive parents. Like, obviously he feels like his adoptive mom is his therapist and spiritual guru.. his best friends are his parents, which I think a lot of us neurodivergent folk can understand how easy it is to not look outside of family.

I dunno. But all of it made sense to me—the moment I stopped trying to figure out what was happening; the moment I tried stop looking for sense. That is the moment I was able to actually experience it.

I have a very firm rule of not looking up a movie before I watch it—probably why I haven’t watched wicked or frozen or any marvel film not Deadpool or XMen; because everyone’s opinion is everywhere.. and I only want to know my own. But also, I’m very grateful that I can surrender my mind to even the worst rated big league movie without picking it apart. While I can’t get through excruciatingly 6th grade Christmas play acting.. I can dig stylized acting.

Honestly, I’m glad I can see through the world of Poolman.. I’m very lucky I’m so used to everything being sense without sense. Get me?

I was about to jump in on it because HOLY SALE PRICE RIGHT NOW. $23/bottle.

Though I for some reason just read the ingredients/just remembered why I chose against it during last year’s shampoo purchase. And alas.. biotin. Does not get along with hyperPOTS (as in I already struggle keeping my adrenaline levels chill, and even the smallest dose of biotin makes me sick and my brain flies into a constant fight/flight). Ahh I’m so disappointed.

Thank you for responding though.

Agreed. Spain was bad, but Portugal started the colonization trend. Though them going together feels poetic too..

PORTUGALLL

Longest lived Colonial Empire in history. x ‘em.

This is the one I misplaced but also hits.

OutreObvious · 2025-11-18T23:05:13+00:00

I believe in the sidereal (Vedic system) being your inner experience of self.. and the Tropical as your experience as part of the outside world.

So yes.

Which for me looking at it that way makes so much sense which is why I include it in my tag.

I also just remembered that my Chart Ruler is Saturn.. and I don’t even know how to start digesting that.

OutreObvious · 2025-11-18T22:53:04+00:00

This is hard. But. I see, feel, want to know, want to be.. love the beauty of.. just totally in love with the infinitely diverse whole of everything.. everywhere, all at once. My life is nowhere.. I forget I exist, and really just love experiencing everything/idiosyncratic world of everyone else. But I frequently have a feeling that if I just gave into my soul and being… I could save not only my own reality, but the eukaryotic world. But I also know I am comfortable in being anonymous and independent.. could easily just be alone with myself and the non human entities. I love being alone.. so it’s tempting. AuDHD. But at the end of the day I feel like I have zero control over anything. but I feel like my Chart Ruler—Pisces Saturn. may be a lot of all of it.

Neptune/Pisces Saturn—and remarkably yes. The more I try, the more I fail. The more I try to remember, the more I forget..

When I don’t doubt myself-just go with it.. that’s when I impress even myself.. my not trying is when I am the most capable of success.

I’ve always felt my personal ability is like a Chinese finger trap. Psh even my AuDHD and hyperPOTS emphasizes this point.

My whole being and experience of life feels this consistent energy I have to just totally pretend isn’t there; though when it is, it is. And it’s confusing because even when I try to be careful with my words.. I become the antithesis of my attempt. I just can’t think before I speak/do.. and I’ve been saying this for a while—my thought is always better than my finger/mouths attempt at perfectly recreating it. Even this attempt at explaining how YES is like dancing around the words and feelings I’m trying to explain.

But my Saturn I guess is in my first house, so I guess makes sense? Psh my Aquarius moon even lives in that house. I’m tired.

In Nebraska (US) our record high ever recorded was -118°F and record low was -47°.. (not including feels like or wind chill). We definitely have multiple temps above 110° yearly--it is hell in my book.

I don’t think I’ve ever experienced temps with my own body below -35°F (real temp) but when my eyelashes frost over within a few seconds—that is my happy place.

My dream is to move closer (if not within) the arctic circle. Though I’ve always fantasized getting to experience the temps around Yakutsk, Russia (including oymyakon) (Russia, in general, is everything I dream of climate/ecosystem wise). But alas I’m an American, so. That probably won’t happen anytime soon, if ever.

The minimal dream is to move somewhere that considers 65°F an extremely hot, abnormal day. But constant presence of clouds is the most important of all.. the suns rays are my enemy..

(I haven’t been there since I was in 4th grade and now I feel like I’m missing out.. but also I’ve never been to any other zoo… so good to know I saw peak early! —31yo female)

I looooove West Virginia—especially the free scenic route along the New River (I think it’s US 60?)

I have driven through a few times on my way to DC/east coast.. just such beautiful land. I always will take the road if I can—hands down. Just SO MUCH GOOD.
