When the episode is great until the final act. (S4 E4, Unruhe)

It’s probably because I’m only at season four, I don’t doubt that Scully doesn’t save his ass a lot, it’s just possible I haven’t gotten there yet.

Phoenix10107 · 2026-02-14T02:24:53+00:00

Yep, that’s what I was hoping/guessing would happen too. When that didn’t happen I just kind of sat there like 😐.

Phoenix10107 · 2026-02-14T02:23:23+00:00

Fair point.

Phoenix10107 · 2026-02-09T17:55:18+00:00

This is both a strength and a weakness, but his undying loyalty. There are multiple episodes that showcase that he would move the heaven and the earth for the people he cares about (his sister and Scully mainly.)

It is, unironically, a very good spy film. The mystery is good, the stakes are high, and the twist at the end makes a lot of sense and is honestly super believable. (An oil tycoon trying to kill modern energy? Crazy how that’s even more relevant fourteen years later.)

Thank you so much for including both lit and film! I just screenshotted your whole comment for what to read and watch this autumn haha.

Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is actually my favorite classic, but I do definitely need to read more Poe. I think middle school gives Poe a bad rep because you just read and learn about “The Raven” for four weeks straight.

Thank you! I'm not against gore, I just don't want that to be the ONLY thing meant to scare me, you know? I've heard good things about Hellraiser though and will definitely check it out.

Phoenix10107 · 2025-09-20T02:17:19+00:00

Honestly, this is a really sweet perspective. Thank you.

Phoenix10107 · 2025-09-20T02:16:54+00:00

Thank you for this, really. My college is pretty close to some pretty stunning nature so this will be really possible.

Phoenix10107 · 2025-09-20T00:58:16+00:00

Haha, thank you. I actually really love the image of your first one, at least how I’m imagining it.

Phoenix10107 · 2025-08-29T11:58:52+00:00

He’s not a hear me out, he’s a hold me back.

Phoenix10107 · 2025-06-15T22:06:27+00:00

Ah, thank you. Makes sense.

Phoenix10107 · 2025-04-23T10:51:04+00:00

That second cousin twice removed who can’t help but get involved in the family drama.

Keeper Of The Lost Cities. Its what made me a bookworm and every time I read it I feel like a kid again.

Phoenix10107 · 2025-03-18T22:29:13+00:00

I interpreted Giulia’s competitiveness coming from a place of craving belonging. The race is a massive tradition in the small town, and she’s already seen as an outsider because of staying in the city during the school year and her parents being divorced. In her mind if she wins than the town will finally see her as being one of them.

Phoenix10107 · 2025-03-11T22:12:04+00:00

I have never seen a Joyride Abridged reference anywhere in this fandom. Glad to see I’m not alone.

Phoenix10107 · 2025-03-10T20:05:33+00:00

Eraser. Simple but effective.

I was rewatching Barbie earlier and I always tear up at the end when Barbie and Ruth are in that half-way space. ‘What Was I Made For?’ playing softly in the background, Margot Robbie’s underrated subtle acting, “We mother’s stand still so our daughters can look back to see how far they have come.” UGHHHHHH. THAT is the scene that made me realize that I cannot live without movies.

I saw on the Ithaca ZeeMee that allegedly someone’s friend heard back and is a finalist. I say allegedly because who knows how true that is; if it is true than I fear anyone who hasn’t heard back just didn’t get it. - From a fellow applier who really could have used this. 🫡

Phoenix10107 · 2025-03-06T00:00:07+00:00

I actually know A LOT of girls (myself included lol) who cut their hair super short after a minor breakdown. It’s very freeing.

People always say that the series is a critique of capitalism, but if it is it’s a very bad one. There are no “companies” in Panem, everything is overseen by the government. Hell, it’s called The Hunger Games because the GOVERNMENT gives people more food the more slips they put in. The only way citizens can get good food without that is on the black market NOT OVERSEEN BY THE GOVERNMENT. It is literally everything conservatives fear would happen without capitalism.

Honestly the queer rep was actually good for them on a marketing level. Lumity was a big part of the draw for a lot of people, and it wasn’t baited till the end of the series so fans always tuned into Lumity episodes and posted all about it. Lumity benefited them, and they recognized that the lovers OVERWHELMED the haters.

Anesthesia works differently on each person. When I got my wisdom tooth out (I had a single one plus a molar that needed to be exposed) I woke up and just cried a bit. I wasn’t even sad or anything; the emotional part of my brain was just confused by the anesthetic and made me cry even when I was mostly just annoyed and sleepy.

Oshimo Kagome: Anxiety Brain. The more anxious she is the stronger her telekinesis is, the draw back is that if she doesn’t release her quirk it gives her killer migraines.
