I never thought much about my future and to take care of future needs. I didn't need to. I could change my mind on a whim, to separate from my men, only to get back together because I - again - had changed my mind.
it is an interesting exercise to try and put oneself back in the mindset of the time
I think one can be seriously honest with oneself instead of molesting others. Genuine exercises are helpful, though can be scary.
all interactions are a manipulation to some degree
sure, that's what they are to some degree. Since I am not alone in the world, I appreciate being manipulated when I or others benefit from it. Being appreciative more in retrospect than in a moment I become aware of it, though. Then it doesn't work that well:) In the same way, I do not always realize being the manipulator.
it really jumps out at me now in movies and tv shows when someone says,
"have a seat"
which, in the past seemed simply "polite"
but now it sounds like a command
and a way to set the tone for dominating the conversation
I see more than I like to notice in all these new movies and series. They are often dripping with political correctness but utterly lack objective reality. The cinematic good experiences get rare and I stick to old movies and good story tellings, which luckily are there in plenty.
Do you know the "Critical Drinker" youtube-channel? It's hilarious.
yes, that's a really good one
Excellent film review. You can only be that brilliant to critique a movie if you know some shit about life yourself :)
Thanks for this one, I haven't seen it.
I got engaged in the comment section on yt - here:
Though I am very critical about this new age stuff (which I still call it, even though it's now called "woke"), I don't support women who play victims.
nice, i'll take a look
