Hey friends. After having open heart surgery in Dec and another procedure in July, I've been left in 10k+ debt while recovering. During this, we were also laid off from Skullgirls. To try to help dig myself out, I have begun listing things on eBay: ebay.com/usr/mshinzan

So, I just flicked on the first Silent Hill flick

The visuals and its own original elements are cool, but man does it drag when the lore kicks in.

I feels like there’s a solid 90-minute cut somewhere in there.

Thinking about how I've spent most of my year seeking out works that inflict intense emotion upon me and leave me to simmer

I like being entertained, but I love FEELING something

A bit rote, I know, but it's how I've felt lately.
