No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Imagine breaking up with someone because you "saw their true nature" when they lost their dad.
That's kind of the plot of Midsommar. The main character loses both her parents and her sister, but her boyfriend is really detached and uninterested in helping her move through her grief. In fact, it turns out he's been planning a trip to get away without her going along, then she finds out and he feels guilty so he brings her along anyway. And in this new life, she's about to find the community that can nuture and support her at HIS and his friend's expense.
I think all of Ari's recent works have been centered around loss, in some way or another. Maybe Beau being centered around loss is kind of stretching it, but that movie is so crazy it is in a category of its own.
