does anyone know the struggle that you really need someone right now, but all your friends are busy or not responding, but you’re scared you’ll do something destructive if you’re left alone now, yet you don’t want to tell them that cause it sounds manipulative, so now you’re kinda just like ????? or am i like way more fucked up than i thought

“Have you ever thought about how we’re living in a society designed to give us anything we want, but we’re essentially the same people who lived during tribal times?  We’re catering to the same base needs like warmth and sex and social gratification, but we’re doing so through unnatural means.  If you think about it, the scrolling mechanism on a phone is a bit like strolling through a forest.  We still come across unknown things.  But now the first judgment that comes to our mind is immediately reinforced.  We can say “I like it,” and we’ll be given more of the same.  Or we can say ‘I don’t like it,’ and the thing will go away forever.  That single mechanism ascribes permanence to our most basic instincts.  We’re never forced to ask: ‘Why do I like it?’  Or ‘Should I like it?’  We’re living in a world that always adapts to us, so we never have to adapt to the world.  I wonder how that affects us.  I also wonder why we like squirrels but hate rats.  Because they’re both rodents.”

‘Star Wars’ 1st birthday poster, 1978. 

Fantastic find! Thanks!

This was a thing because the first release of Star Wars stayed in theaters for 18 months! First from May 25, 1977 to July 20, 1978, then extended to November 7. There were also multiple re-releases (detailed in a surprising overview at starwars.com).

In the days before home viewing, this was how you built the fandom – studios leaving movies where fans could watch ‘em, and fans watching repeatedly. 

This was quite a bit longer than usual, of course, and being in theaters a year later was definitely worth celebrating.
