      this is why i dont really love time travel since its very nature calls into the fundamental reality of our linear existence. Exploring that can be fun, but our story telling methods arent really built for that kind of environment.

      Chuck Klostermann had a whole very serious rant about time travel being fundamentally immoral as a fantasy He said its simplest form is just the old "If I could start my life over knowing what I know now" Stealing your younger self's life, in other words, imposing hindsight

      Replying to @arthur_affect @Plutoburns @Gr8SageEqlofHvn

      Which is another thing I was discussing with my therapist, that fantasies about being able to change the past contribute to my depression I just think if a story is going to use a potentially harmful trope, it's worth explaining why it's harmful

      like, if you wanted to critique fridging but did it by, i dunno, a world where women are inexplicably immune to any kind of physical harm whatsoever. I feel like that isn't putting in the necessary work

      I dunno, I feel like LOOPER plays fair, moreso than the kind of story where the time traveler simply fails due to wacky coincidence because changing the past is just impossible

      Replying to @arthur_affect @Plutoburns @Gr8SageEqlofHvn

      I guess it's possible. I admit, again, that my hostile reading of it is based largely in my dislike of what Johnson did to existing SW canon and, beyond that, the conversations around that having grown up in a way such as to equate liking Johnson's filmmaking with opposing sexism

      I obviously wouldn't recommend LOOPER for a depressed person with thoughts about time travel I'm not sure exactly what I would recommend ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND maybe

      Nah EDGE OF TOMORROW is pro-timeline optimization GROUNDHOG DAY is actually better for giving you perspective I would argue

      For what it's worth, my time travel related depression issues, such as they are, are mostly an expression of self loathing. LOOPER and other time travel is bad stories don't accentuate it, stories where you CAN fix your mistakes do

      "Firstborn" would be a good story for you, especially if it's linked to daddy issues

          The writer said it's disguised as a Worf episode but he himself was much older than either Worf or Present-Day Alexander, and Future Alexander was really the main character

          The feeling of being older than your dad was when he died, never having had kids yourself, never having gotten the chance for closure with him or fix all the ways you weren't the child he wanted Too old to see a future, only gazing at the past
