that sounds like an option, though what i'm really looking for is something subtler and less syntactically forceful. the og line is literally something like "it had to happen this way" and it's only the particles (and word order) that add the "which i think is bad"

machine translation is not particularly helpful here, don't fire your translators...

crowdsourcing a translation in case someone can help: not the exact line, but how would you express this sentiment (which i would characterize as lament or regret about something that happened) arising from the affective qualities of the -pA and -kin enclitic particles in English?

i'm jealous of people who only like big studio movies bc they get to have the craziest discourse all the time... you can't really do "if you don't like X you're a bad person" when X has been logged by less than 5k people on letterboxd

i'm a transhumanist but more importantly, i'm a transfoodist; if you ask me, the stuff we invented outsells mother nature so hard. oat milk sent cow milk to the khia asylum, and beans + soy chunks are the only everyday protein sources i need

I'd even go as far as to call it the bee's knees but you know, the payment processors might be listening

this diva gives you plentiful proteins & fibers at a minimal cost and expires basically never... and the respect she gets for it in our culture is close to zero...

Mohammed Atta and Satam al-Suqami were enjoying a pleasant flight to New York on the morning of September the 11th 2001, but then things took an unexpected twist when it turned out they were insane religious fanatics. Things would never be the same again.

horror makes things that are the hardest for the characters to experience the easiest for the audience to stomach. it's like, oh awesome, gore effects! but then (at least to me) the focus is on the effects rather than the gore, and the stakes become a lot harder to buy into.

i think the reason i often struggle with horror is how it combines the repulsive and the comforting (through being full of familiar tropes the audience is expected to like seeing). artistic impulses that could in theory be challenging and confrontational instead become boring and conventional.

we need to watch it together... maybe i'll my find my way to Tampere sometime...

they're going to have to shove me into the criterion closet bc i haven't watched Get Out yet... but i have seen NOPE and found it pretty good, if messy, though i think it worked better for me as an action spectacle thing

i should say, i guess, that i usually like horror more as a mode than a genre. i think it's easier to fight against this dissonance when you're working with multiple genre influences, allowing horror elements to be a shocking intrusion in a world where they're not predetermined.
