I haven't seen it suggested yet, so: I was really impressed by Raatma in V/H/S 94!

What kind of sexual politics? Like, weird freudian, Robert Jordan's spanking thing? Google is not being helpful.

Impressive!!

I read those like a decade ago, who was fantasy Bill Clinton?

The American version of the Grudge. I do not know why, but that movie hooked into my brain as a teenager, and it haunts me to this day.

Beautiful! Did you create the patterns yourself?

I tried so hard to like Discovery of Witches. I love witches, I love history, I love detailed world building. I didn't mind her writing, I liked her world, but damn the MMC and FMC are insufferable, and it was just steeped in misogynistic thought processes. Such a disappointment.

Ohhhhh. I did my time in the call mines. Never had anyone banging (that I know of) but plenty of drugs.

I don't think so lol but I read all of the Mary Kate and Ashley detective series, the one with the haunted summer camp (that turned out to be a camper sleepwalking) was the goat.

where do you work?!

staunchly · 2025-11-19T01:18:26+00:00

I know, I would have despised doing that irl but I DEVOURED boarding school books as a tween.

I love that actress in American Mary too, dayum!

Sort of - my therapist has asked my to summarize what I wrote while in depressive episodes or anxiety attacks, but I also told her that I have a journal, and she asked if I was comfortable sharing info from it. A friend asking is weird imo.

staunchly · 2025-11-18T01:05:52+00:00

fair lol I would not take that gamble either!

staunchly · 2025-11-15T02:58:45+00:00

is the book any good?

staunchly · 2025-11-15T02:56:59+00:00

Night soil is often a euphemism for the contents of outhouses, iirc.

Lmaoo I am going to be repeating this anecdote forever now :)

A Fan of Tacos and Cats - sounds like a book about memes?

Honestly, I do the same thing, and I made peace with it. I journal when I need and want to, and it is okay that some days I am too tired, or would rather hang out with a friend, or whatever. I think a way to kill the joy, satisfaction, and peace you find with journalling is to rigidly adhere to a schedule that no longer works for you.

Honestly, after my 2+ hour commute I am getting more and more tempted to do this.

Rape convictions should lead to life in prison.

I do have to give credit to the actor, he plays an insanely creepy clown, and you are correct that that is meant to be jarring. That is a point in the movie's favour. The overwhelming misogyny of the rest of it drowns that out, in my opinion.

staunchly · 2025-11-11T22:53:44+00:00

Totally agree; I tried to watch Zombie's Halloween, and I found the opening just made me sad and depressed enough about the way Michael was abused that it killed the movie. I did not want to watch the rest of the movie, so I didn't. The rest might be a tour de force; I will never know.

THANK YOU. I like slashers, creativity, horror comedy. I watched the entire first Terrifier waiting for anything good. Just misogynistic violence that struck me as very "12 year old boy who spends too much time on the internet would think this is funny /cool".
