Daylight Anxiety

I completely understand and empathize with why modern living conditions have turned situations where only you understand, can control, and exploit a video game world to your every whim into a massively popular subgenre but I also find those scenarios being the ultimate escapist horizon so depressing

Catriona MacColl has a vision and drools some because it's pretty horrible in Lucio Fulci's classic City of the Living Dead (1980)

Gnarled witchy blue and pink lit hands grab a screaming face in Dario Argento's masterpiece Inferno (1980) ...feel free to debate me in the comments--although I will warn you of impending loss for I am a master debater

A defeated projectionist slumps on the stage of a theater in front of a lit screen without a movie playing on it in Izo Hashimoto's Evil Dead Trap 2: Hideki (1992)

When the DMs be like "so what films are your vibe" and these are the films...🤷‍♀️📽️

in the darkness

Anne: Everyone, this is.. C-Clarabelle.. She'll be joining us in accounting. Clara: I look forward to working with you all. Clara stands a full head taller than Anne, is more muscular, and has two long horns. Her clenched fists are shaking nervously. In one image, she is attempting to saw them off.

Clarabelle: Can you get this report to me by EOD? Anne (nervous): Y-yes, Clara!! Clara: Thank y- Anne: I'd Do anything for you, Clara!! Clara: That's not necessary, thank you. Clara stands over Anne, holding a stack of papers, a couple of cows look over the cubicle in the background to see what's going on.

Bluesky user “assigned hustler at birth” quoting my post about the Gundam wiki glitching and featuring a picture of anon chihaya on job john’s page saying “there’s a character in Gundam named job John?” to which I reply “there’s a character in Gundam named zucchini nicchini and he is the president of the United States”

Telling people about Gundam names is the gift that keeps on giving

Honestly, good decision. That site gets worse and worse by day, the only reason I haven't moved completely is because of some movie accounts.

an artwork of Spindle's characters, Asimov and Ottilie, showing a down-POV with Asi sitting crosslegged (at the bottom) and Otti in front of her. A cup of tea is between Asi's legs, with the reflection of them kissing.

Aftermath of violence

Yeah, I think I saw Interstella on music channel as a kid at some time too, along with some snippets of Galaxy Express.

A woman says to her girlfriend "OK. I have the nightcap and candle." She leans in and says "I'm ready to do an all-time "Who Goes There?" The woman enters the starkly lit room, looking apprehensive and terrified. She utters "who goes there?" Her girlfriend embraces her and says "God, I'm so glad I met you on the "Who Goes There?" Forums."

A nice quiet moment for our Princess #clair-obscure #expedition33

This Youtuber evinces sincerity so effectively that I have decided to use the malware-like VPN he swears he also uses.

Also peak pre-2000 vibes. In a sense of anxious anticipation of the turn of the millennium.
