all of these movies have themes of moving on, grief, acceptance, and learning how to be yourself all while making you giggle.

• the banshees of inisherin (2022): I only reccomend this if u want to think abt the relationship and be sad abt it for a bit. especially if it is a case where nothing particularly happened you just drifted apart without explanation
• do revenge (2022): fun and lowkey cathartic movie for 17 year old me! dec helped me reconcile with the more messy and tumultuous side of friendships? idk i can't remember much abt this one i think it was just a "right place, right time" movie for me
• deadpool & wolverine (2024): yes I am being so fr rn. I saw this bc my mother was tired of me crying over the fact that my bff-of-two-years-and-partner-of-7-months had just broken up with me and for those 2 hours I forgot abt all the pain and sadness over ya know the whole dating ur off means when u breakup u lose both a partner AND a friend. but yeah it was a good wild time that even made me almost cry for ya know other non-breakup reasons :)
• in regards to the previous rec binging the x-men movies rlly helped distract me from all the emotional turmoil of that breakup
•10 things i hate abt you (1999): a good fun uplifting rom-com to ignore the world to and in my case helped me ignore the grief of some stuff over the years :)
•the muppets (2011): comfort movie to the max degree!!! makes the world feel a little less evil imo
• any one of the cornetto trilogy movies by edgar wright: the bromance between nick frost and simon pegg truly helps me remember that real love in friendship is possible. and it's funny and silly goofy. that is also a big part of my enjoyment for those movies

this movie makes me so emotional even though it’s partly a comedy. as someone who grew up with undiagnosed neurodivergence, the parallels between lars’ experiences and mine is very similar.
the part that makes me emotional is how everyone in the movie treats him. they are so kind and understanding, and allow him to grieve and cope in a way that is most comfortable for him. it’s a reminder that we are all worthy of love and patience, and we shouldn’t settle for any less. one day we will all find our small town that loves and accepts us for who we are.

i saw this movie a year and half ago and still think about it 4+ times a week. haven't been able to listen to under pressure since. still feel like i'm stuck navigating between grief and healing. which...i guess is what life is??? finding your ground between the person you were with the person you'll be. anyway! aftersun ruined my life in the best way possible and it may be time to grow a pair & rewatch it.

i‘ve been feeling really nostalgic and missing the “old internet“ and making internet friends lately as well. i feel like pi.fyi is the closest i have gotten to that feeling again! i don’t feel afraid to comment on people’s posts and start conversations about common interest.
I feel like pi.fyi (and its community) really fosters that kind of thing, which makes me believe it’s totally possible again 🙂↕️
(can you tell i like it here)
