i keep thinking ‘if i was interested in dating men, i’d have dates for years.’ but then i think...why would i ever. literally ever

is it really? i had no idea. it is SO bad though, the acting isn’t great and the effects are...like you said

although i have to admit, while the design of the time-travel predator (some kind of baboon crocodile thing?) is ridiculous, the actual body mechanics aren’t the worst i’ve ever seen*

*jk, i just got to a scene where they’re suspended from the ceiling like bats. lol

this is fucking awful and I'm so sorry you're being stalked like this. have you ever considered Oregon?

i like the idea of moving around, but my anxiety just “what would you do there? what if you can’t find a job? or a home?”
