Getting embarrassed by 2 teams you’ve dogwalked for decades back to back in the playoffs isn’t enough to radicalize, nothing is. Trade Giannis for Jaylen and bring all the Antetokounbros with him idgaf.
The same parents who travel long distances to help/ grieve/ celebrate their friends?
The ones greeting almost everyone from church to the market? They model alot about community and friendship. Alot of us think we're too good for mundane things.
Let's be serious please.
Basically repeat this to any young writer I work with.
Fetishising the idea of “community” will stagnate your own vision. Baldwin was spitting when he recognised that creativity also needs the aloneness of birth or death, the aloneness of the grave.
everyone is addicted to infantilizing themselves and trying to appear innocent and completely incapable of malice. i partially blame the recent proliferation of the phrase ‘childlike wonder’.
i revisited sum of the stuff i wrote when i was depressed & the overwhelming feeling i came away w was that it was all self pity dressed up as profundity
I keep seeing this post and it's annoying because Bear treating her like a psycho girlfriend does not mean that's how she's being presented to the audience. The film shows so clearly that Bear is a coward and unreliable
More people seeing a movie = more/louder people with rigid, black & white analysis
Movies can be (and usually are) about a lot of things, themes and metaphors are a big part of art
Reducing OBSESSION to one thing and rejecting interpretation is anti-art

Obsession is ultimately a film about how ordinary men can commit extraordinary violence while genuinely believing they're the victims. How a "nice guy" can wish someone into a cage and then slowly rationalize why he shouldn't let them out. How the distance between fantasy and reality can cost lives.

@asaprania y’all haven’t faced anything close to an actual contender, spurs just beat an all time great defending champion team. stop the mental gymnastics lol
I Love Boosters is perfect because it tells the universal truth that you must reject the performative man (even if he models) to fulfill your ultimate goal in life (class war obviously)
