Reminder: if you try to engage with me in bad faith, such as ridiculing me, picking arguments w/ me, or being otherwise unkind (vs genuinely curious), I will block you. FAFO.

Perhaps the worst part of 1982’s The Thing is the way the alien attacks and mutilates the dogs 😭😭😭 Ugh, so hard to watch!!!

I love me a base under siege film! It might be my fave genre. Limited resources, small space, people being picked off one by one. 👩🏻‍🍳💋

Here’s my synopsis! I mean, yes, 1982’s version is perfect AND I love this prequel 💕 bsky.app/profile/ambe...

2011 is a prequel that tells the story of the Norwegian researchers who found The Thing buried in the ice and excavated it. The ending leads right into the 1982 version, with similar footage of the dog running to the American research compound as it’s being chased by a helicopter.

Every time I watch 2011’s The Thing, I’m astounded by how no one listens to Kate. I hope someday people will learn to listen to women.

Be a ruthless, pragmatic extremist when it comes to curating your social media, podcast, & video feeds so they give you resources supportive to your recovery.

Life is too short for the stupid rage bait dopamine hamster wheel the algorithm is trying to feed you.

Recovery first.

Same! We have a long list of spooky season movies we like to have on rotation. It’s been a few years since we watched this one.

The backbone of realistic trauma recovery is a relationship w/ ourselves we can trust. Trauma Brain will try effortfully to get us to disbelieve, distrust, & belittle ourselves.

We gotta work, daily, hourly, to be on our own side & have our own back against old conditioning.
