fuck man i overslept again and by evening my heads gonna hurt like shit
how is it even possible to wake up at 9, off the alarm, go slep again and wake up at 15
i just watched silence of the lambs and i dont understand why is it so praised and why is/was lecter so popuar in media
the whole thing about this girl wanting to crack the case to stop her from some nightmare looks like bullshit
the leads and logical chains that lead the girl to cracking the case also look like bullshit, it's the whole "i have 0 clue about the killers identity and make little to no progress for 80% of the storyline only to magically deduct some shit from basically nowhere and pretty much crack the case"
so u wanna tell me that fbi "have no clues" and are desperate enough to send a trainee to negotiate with a psychopath... but they didnt even check the relatives of the first girl he killed. cool!
the focus of the story is also random, for the first half of the film its all about lecter and his shenanigans but then he gets almost completely forgotten in the story to only appear at the very end jut to let us know what became of him
idk maybe im stupid and dont understand smth - i just expected more from the film that was this praised and i almost dont watch movies at all so im easy to impress
I’ll risk being denounced as anti-American here by suggesting that the American Dream has a tragic flaw that has made a nightmare of Detroit. Central to this American Dream narrative we are routinely fed at school, at work, and through the media is that America is the land of boundless opportunity. We keep repeating the myth that everyone can succeed here if they work hard enough. That they can do it on their own. That losers are losers because they’re little engines that didn’t try hard enough.
Tell that silly tale to a single mother with three kids and no money to pay the rent or heat. Tell it to an unemployed father whose unemployed son wanders the streets, angry and depressed. Tell it to the teenaged girls who refuse to go to school because they’re afraid of what might happen there. Tell it to the thousands of Detroiters who don’t go to doctors because they have no health insurance, and often no doctor willing to spend ten minutes with them.
Tell them with a straight face that they’ll succeed if they try harder, without asking for help. Convince them they won’t be shamed by asking for help.
That we all should be hard-working little engines is a nice idea, necessary for teachers and parents to repeat as they try to inspire individuals to live up to their potential, and also useful to successful types who feel a need to congratulate themselves. But it is not a credible groundwork for public discourse or public policy. At the core of the American Dream narrative is its tragic flaw, a cancerous radical individualism that expresses itself politically on both the right and left, especially among libertarians. The cancer lurks in one of our favorite words – “freedom” – repeated like a meaningless mantra, drearily by preachers and politicians. The American Dream fiction claims that an individual alone is responsible for his or her fate, and that the individual is “free to choose” this fate. An individual’s failure, a whole city’s failure, is not to be explained in terms of a failing economy, or Wall Street greed, or mismanagement of its major industries, or corrupt politicians, or drug users outside Detroit’s city limits who enable those trapped inside to participate in the city’s alternative and illegal economy. And certainly nobody wants to hear anyone explain Detroit’s problems in terms of race. If black Detroiters fail, it’s all their own fault, and they’re just playing out their victim roles when they ask for help. If they can’t succeed at the American Dream, they’re not good enough. Why don’t they leave us alone? Why don’t they just go away?
The American Dream fiction, like the steady diet of melodramas we’re routinely fed by Hollywood, has good guys and bad. The moral of this simplistic story is that those who make it are good, and those who don’t are bad and deserve to lose. What’s wrong with them?
It’s this flawed narrative, widespread and profound in the many who live outside our Detroits, and invoked by those who do great damage from outside, that makes victims of so many Detroiters. What we as outsiders don’t see is that we’re victims too of the American Dream story we routinely tell ourselves. We have plenty of technical expertise, a lot of knowledge of systems, hoards of wealth, and, I think, a profound need for the gratification that comes from collective response tied to worthwhile purposes. Detroit, its many versions throughout the U.S., will require us to pay and pay and pay for our collective failure to respond.

Imagine you are invited to a conference on "American Dream - now and then". Emilio DeGrazia is a speaker. You are strongly against his views. Prepare the script for a debate statement.
Hannibal Lecter is an individual obsessed with perfection, a patron of the arts, has supreme manners, and has perfect knowledge about everything, from kitchen apparel to artisanal hand cream.
Does all that make Clarice Starling and us love him?
As dangerous as he is , audiences want to feel fear, only to be relieved by a relatable hero. And as far as Hannibal goes, it’s not the killer we love; it is the mentor we seek.
yeah he has that vibe of "antisocial yet extremely intelligent, cunning, profound in many fields and with deep insight" but he isnt the only one, there are a lot of characters that seem like they got it all figured out
I have no idea how SG can just go for the second lane though. They kill 5 of them, 4 of them use buyback, THEY STILL GET THE RAX ANYWAY and then they just decide to stay and go for a second lane? That was a massive mistake.

2 weeks ago, I accidently slept 20 hours I also used an alarm, went to sleep again and gg
so it's possible
It depends on what time you woke up, how much sleep you got in the last few days and how tired you were at that point.
Every morning, I wake up because I have to poop, even though I poop during the night before almost every day, and then I can't sleep again FeelsBadMan
man i can't even poop every 2nd day
