Satire is dead

Pls don’t <3

Cheers to all the brothers and sisters out there helping out their siblings!

Indeed. Let me add some more to the list:

Black Bear (2020) slow burn twisted story, Aubrey Plaza knocks it out of the park with her performance.

The Neon Demon (2016) even more twisted and not for the faint of heart. Visually stunning.

The Substance (2024) calling this one twisted would be an understatement. I feel like this is pushing the definition of an indie movie because it’s got blockbuster production values.

The Zero Theorem (2013) and Pi (1998) kind of hitting the same notes of crazy. The former especially worth watching because of Christoph Walz.

Titane (2021) it’s been a while that I watched it but it definitely left an impression. Also not an easy watch.

Swallow (2020) is about a girl developing a disturbingly unhealthy coping mechanism.

The Outrun (2024) hit way too close to home for me. Beautiful and sad movie. Shoutout to Saoirse Ronan.

Splice (2009) this one gets WEIRD oh boy lol

Adam’s Apples (2005) classic danish dark humor also Mads Mikkelsen!

Garden State (2004) awkward Zach Braff humor that feels very personal.

And if you feel like permanently traumatizing yourself then I can recommend Irréversible (2002) and any other Gaspar Noé movie.

The whole setting is so grim and depressing I couldn’t get myself to finish it. Excellent game though.

Economists talking a bunch of horseshit, news at 11.

I have generalized anxiety because I worry about the general state of the world

I wish them all the best and hope students across the world take note of this.
