can I offer a hopeful anecdote? when I left oppenheimer (which had a well-behaved audience) I passed two theater employees patiently explaining to a soaking wet woman that they wouldn’t help her identify the people who poured their drinks on her in Barbie bc she was on her phone

I literally turn my phone all the way off whenever I'm at a movie theater bc the idea of my phone making any noise in the audience makes me wanna die... so the idea that people are just ON THEIR PHONES BROWSING TIKTOK DURING A MOVIE IS INSANE TO ME WERE YOU RAISED IN A BARN?

@ebruenig -show them something, and according to her mom this at the time 4y/o just went zooming down the hallways of the museum into the Egyptian section and they had to chase her. She stopped in front of one of the mummy cases and pointed. The mummy was of a little girl named Myt.

there's an upcoming YA book about some kid accidentally unleashing Captain Hook on the real world. if I accidentally let Captain Hook into the real world, I'd just tell him 'Peter Pan isn't here and gay marriage is legal' and he'd just cry on my shoulder in relief.

to clarify: I only saw the aftermath. I don't know if they warned her first or anything, only the theater employees advising her that she would have been kicked out and banned if they had caught her instead, but in this case she could go home, wash up, and reconsider her choices.

@ebruenig A kid I babysat for the summer a few years back had an invisible friend named Myt who apparently joined the family during her first trip to Central Park after they'd moved here from Chicago. They went on their first trip to the Met a few days later; the kid said Myt wanted to-

@ebruenig They'd never been to the museum before that & the kid couldn't read yet. Also, apparently the chittering I heard in her room 3 years later was Myt, who according to the kid "doesn't look [like a little girl] anymore". The ancient Egyptians believed the soul is bird-shaped.

@amandamull about ten years ago I was heading to JFK late at night on the A train and forgot my suitcase on the platform at 59th St as I boarded. a group of guys on the platform formed a human chain to throw the suitcase to each other and then onto the train right before the doors closed.

see the thing is Michael Caine played Scrooge completely, utterly straight, like it wasn't a Muppet movie at all, and Tim Curry basically decided if it's a Muppet movie he's going to MATCH THAT MUPPET ENERGY and that's why both performances rock

@_necrodank_ @DannyVegito @MasterTarantino the serious answer is that sometimes the people who offer an easy escape from an abusive situation (rather than helping the victim rebuild in safety) are actually abusers themselves looking for people with no home to go back to to take advantage of. it's a metaphor for that.

I can't believe I'm saying this but what you're talking about here is what used to be called "spoopy" on Tumblr, and that was somehow a much more coherent concept than "cozy horror". Everybody knew spoopy and horror only occasionally intersect and it was fine!
