Watched The Exorcist (1973) for the first time the other day and the demon part is scary but I was not expecting so much medical scenes.

I also understand that the 70s were Like That (and for many people things unfortunately still are), but what is this of making medical tests on a teenager while her mother is in the waiting room? And then, the mother hasn't been there, we the audience haven't been there either, and the doctor says "your daughter has used bad language" and the mother "that's impossible, she doesn't do that" but what is she going to do? She will trust the doctor, the expert, her daughter's character is changing so there must be something (not adolescence) going on. Long story short, your 12 year old, who is starting puberty, needs to take Ritalin.

This was harder for me than the actual possession. It then turned out that there was something terribly wrong with the daughter, but the way they presented this information was aaragadafsdfasdhjgla.

Also, they say the girl doesn't remember anything of the possession, so from her point of view she goes from undergoing a lot of medical procedures and being high as a kite over nothing to having scars all over her body (and very likely genital problems for the rest of her life, there is a whole thing going on down there that is never adressed). There is a whole different movie here of the daughter trying to find out which medical doctor actually disgraced her like this and why did my mother never sue them? Was my mother the one who did all this? "It was an evil possession". Right, so my mother is crazy and I paid for it with my health.

So yeah... it's a medical/psychiatric horror movie as much as it is a supernatural one.

Modern day horror anime: So there's this group of highschool students that are in a death game and they have to escape but there's literally 0 rising tension except maybe if one of the side characters die and also make sure it's not the fan favorite characters or the mc. Maybe add some excessive gore that it won't definitely turn into comedic with how over the top it is.

80's horror anime: Hey kids you want to see an animated horror story that's banned in 50 countries?

Serious post but something that’s been bothering me is people’s assumption that fetish content creators must be uncomfortable with the content they create for views/money/etc. And while I’m sure there are a handful of people who wittingly, continuously create content that they’re not into, the vast majority of people are into the primary fetishes they make content for. Willingly creating content for related fetishes that they aren’t into, usually for money, is also not exploitation.

Like I saw a screenshot on Reddit of a young female YouTuber who was purposefully gaining weight, and everybody in the comments was saying that she was ruining herself to appeal to pervy men on the internet. Setting aside the fatphobia of vilifying weight gain, the implication that she herself was just as disgusted by the fetish as an unprepared vanilla onlooker is almost certainly wrong.

It’s all part of the infantilization of sex workers, which people never want to admit is a misogyny issue. I feel like people read one article about abuse in the porn industry (which is certainly real, but becoming less of an issue thanks to creator-centric phenomenons like OnlyFans), and then changed their outlook of sex workers to “oh these poor helpless women trapped under the disgusting gaze of horny predators”. Getting into sex work, for working-class and higher people at least, is a choice you can enthusiastically consent to, and consuming their content is not harmful to them nor society. You can’t be sex-negative and then hope to make change in the sex industry; it’s the same toxic mentality as claiming women are too pure and childish to give consent. If you’re already sex-positive enough to conceptualize sex workers as people with agency, that’s great; please also make sure you’re extending that respect to fetishes you personally don’t like or understand.

Every day is a culture shock

Bro ive been on the internet for how long and I'm still in a perpetual state of culture shock?

I feel insane when I hear that people don't take family roles or family duty as seriously as I do.

My best friend loves to send me posts of People complaining about family and we both look like

Oh that's crazy! They're not even defending the family honor and reputation from outsiders????? Literally insane!! Even if you hate your family, you still have to defend them from outsiders. What's even going on?

To us it's like instinct. Even if your parents are straight up evil, you still have access to connections and favors by virtue of your last name. You have to defend the last name so you can keep using that. It's not a common idea? CRAZY! And what about your younger generations? You want to ruin it for them too?

Despite being females, we are both the firstborn son of our households. And then we go online and nobody knows wtf we're talking about

Wtf you mean you're the oldest and you're not at least the firstborn daughter? It comes with birth. You don't have any of those duties? Then what do you do?

Like obv were not robots. I have a lot of friends that didn't do some of their duties. Whether they disagreed or were lazy or just didn't want to, the word "duty" is always there. "That duty was stupid so I didn't do it". Fair. Your choice.

dude ok I know I'm aware other cultures exist and they're different. I didn't realize in practice its SO different. people look at me like I'm fucking insane bro!!!

I had a conversation with a girl and she's like "you're so lucky you have a great relationship with your dad!" And I was like "not all my siblings have this close relationship. I earned my right to stand as his equal by completing all my family duties (almost) perfectly"

Like I earned my right that when we argue I can say he's "being cringe". I earned my right to argue actually. I earned this by repeatedly demonstrating responsibility, maturity, and correct priorities.

Dude that girl said this sounds like child abuse and I was like dawg wtf are you talking about 💀 your parents don't let you earn standing? Do they even love you? (That was mainly ego. She insulted my family so I tried to as well).

I'm guilty of growing up in a mixed asian society. My best friend grew up also In a mixed Asian society but a different one. In mine, the largest groups were Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai and Korean followed by every other kind of Asian.

Her area's largest groups were japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Indian followed by every other kind of Asian.

So it's kinda different but close enough. She knows how to eat with her hands and I know how to eat with chopsticks. We all celebrate 2 kinds of lunar new year. One by the south asian lunar calendar and one by the east Asian lunar calendar (don't ask, I don't know why we have 2 lunar calendars. You would think there's only 1?)

Both our areas, aunties will scold you if they hear you talk disrespectfully to your parents. Both our areas people will look down on you for not knowing your home language. Both our areas, the elders expect proper acknowledgement.

There are differences too. In my area, those who disrespect you must be disrespected In return. It's an offense to your family that they think they are allowed to disrespect you. In her area, the disrespect will happen but not to the face. You have to show you're from a better family. Here you have to show you are aware of the bullshit and you won't let it slide. I think its a difference between acting on behalf of your family vs acting with permission from your family. That's my speculation.

When teachers at my school said "grades don't matter" we said "then don't grade us? Liar". When teachers at her school said that they said "we understand, thank you for telling us" and then told their parents and the parents filed a report against the teachers for intentional misleading and sabotage.

The levels or respect and politeness and what kinds of actions imply what about your family were a culture shock to me. When I visit her, I have to adjust to be a lot more mellow and polite than I have to show here. Here, the elders accept any proper acknowledgement like "hi grandma" is fine. Even "hello" or a wave is fine. There, elders expect you to acknowledge them according to their culture. I personally fuck this up so bad because I don't even know who they are so i just copy what my friend is doing. And then I get the relation wrong and then they stare at me. Sometimes I'm lucky.

Over here, we don't really know too many people. It's not as social. Where she lives, everyone knows everyone.

I don't know how to describe this melding aside from just generally "asian" .

I log on to the internet and there's no shared culture except for speaking English 🤣 HAH.

It's like the difference between going to a swimming pool vs a jacuzzi

Vs jumping into a pile of leaves

Previously the common factor was water. Now the common factor is that it's matter.

I'm being so deadass I feel like me and some fictional characters from cultivation novels have more in common

[webginz]

it lowkey bothers me when people say lobotomies were done with a drill or saw and exagerate everything and stuff... it was a real thing that happened to mostly women and it bothers me when people treat it like a horror movie premise or something. idk. there are still victims of the lobotomy alive today...

"The handmaiden is male gazey" did you know lesbians like fucking other women sexy style? Did you know that a large theme in the handmaiden was the male gaze and misogyny and if you can't separate explorations of a harmful idea from endorsements of it you may be hopeless?
