The Lotus Eaters
THE LOTUS EATERS ARE A NONE TOO SUBTLE METAPHOR ON THE PERILS OF ESCAPISM
HOW DO YOU MISS THAT SO FUCKING BADLY?
What, the peril of giving up early on a bunch of dangerous adventures fighting monsters and pissing off powerful beings to go do opiates and/or eat pussy?

Rachel Zegler hates me!?
Lmao okay who cares?
SHE'S WOKE AND SHE HATES YOU.
THE FNAF VIDEO LMAO
These people have deluded themselves, or simply pandering to the fans, that every dog ass video game movie is actually good now. So good that the Elders of Rotten Tomatoes are conspiring to ruin its reputation even though the website and movie are owned by the same company.

Oh. Nevermind. I guess I answered my own question
Imagine thinking mindless media consumption is a serious hobby lmao
Unlimited Genocide on G*merkind
I don't understand. She looks really pretty. What do these guys want exactly?
