How often does read literature / watching a movie make you cry?

@stone @wohali *uses quicked reflexed to jump back* now your asslet’s failure is sealed

@wohali @stone *triple jumped mogged over your asslet*

[blindcoder@toot.berlin]

@wohali Practically never. Then I got children, and now I cry over everything from Bluey to Beauty and the Beast to almost everything involving family.

@blindcoder Bluey can be quite heavy!

[sixsider@mastodon.halibut.com]

@wohali I never used to. Then I became a parent.

@wohali When it’s sad, when it’s happy, when it’s cheesy.

@wohali I'm gonna choose "Hardly ever" but it's, like, very very very hardly ever, like I can only think of two off the top of my head and one is really dumb

(there's one particular shot in Mad Max Fury Road where you see a baffle on some air intakes open up and the engine can breathe again! )

[aplundell@timeloop.cafe]

@wohali you got a nice bell curve of results.

That's a sign of good data collection!

[wohali@timeloop.cafe]

@apLundell yeah i'm really impressed, and a decent set size (542!)

[kaliah@dragonscave.space]

@wohali I'm cold and emotionless and don't think I have ever cried at media.

[jhavard@mastodon.social]

@wohali the first movie that made me cry was short circuit

[catzilla@toot.cat]

@wohali All the damn time, which is interesting because I’m not a person who is prone to crying about the things that happen in life, in general, including my own life.

I find it so hard to cry. But when I experience art? Easily.

@EinsPossum @wohali Same. 🫂

[transience@beige.party]

@wohali Ever since I got PTSD it’s impossible for me to cry or even laugh while watching movies or TV. But scenes of horror, rape, gore and gratuitous violence trigger my fight mechanism or make me hyperventilate, so I avoid most movies & TV altogether –unless it’s something I know is safe for me to watch. #actuallyautistic

Same, and less and less is safe, pick something safe on TV and the first commercial is some nightmare
