Like what creates a more immersive experience with a book or movie, watching/reading in one big go or stopping every 5 minutes to riff on character names

I'm realizing people who advance this idea as a positive just assume writing is like typical office make-work and the contents of it don't matter

I am kind of a sourpuss about excess table shenanigans, but I've always preferred a tight focused 90 minute session to 3 hours of mostly goofing (for any genre)

Also very susceptible to meta goofs because people just do not want to engage with tension

If you are looking for an unusual, tense, and oddly beautiful horror movie this Halloween, I highly recommend A Dark Song, should it have escaped your notice before.

Woman facing a doorway with arcane symbols with title A Dark Song and accolades including Outstanding abd An Utterly Unique Film.

Maybe It Will Happen Today @today-maybe.bsky.social · May 21

Digital illustration in comic book style of 1966 Adam West Batman. He’s making a very manic and stressed out gritted-teeth grimace as he runs with a comically large bomb with a lit fuse held in both hands over his head. Three speech bubbles, the last being a red and orange burst, contain the words ‘Maybe it will happen today!’ 🦇 💣

Never ask a woman her age, instead ask her what tales have carved their mark on her flesh. Ask if she is wizened, bent low from the sins of the past. Ask her if she believes in retribution

As the only Sims 4 player who doesn't use mods (apparently) it is frustrating trying to find help with bugs. All the stuff online is like "I have [same problem]. Mods installed: Nonstop Group Sex, Everyone Is A Goo Alien, Exploding Cats, Sometimes The Game Doxxes You"
