Anyone know what I mean when I say that I can no longer watch movies without some kind of intentionality in mind? (hexbear.net)

When I was younger, that was something that I didn’t consider whatsoever. Epitome of soypoint-1

I kinda wish I could turn it off and on but that hasn’t seemed possible. Feels like I’m always reading into what used to just be slop and can’t really pinpoint when things changed 😅

Does this make sense?

I’ve become an insufferable media companion in much the same way.

I see all the plot devices, I see all the tropes, especially the harmful ones and those I disagree with perpetuating. I see all the bad faith arguments and egregious illogic..

It’s frustrating for everyone involved. Wish it wasn’t so, but.. when you realize there are indeed boogeymen, you see them in the shadows because that’s where they hang out.
