- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

SKINAMARINK.
Two kids wake up in the middle of the night, and things are just ... Not right. The door's not where it's supposed to be, the chairs in the dining room aren't right, mum and dad are acting odd...
It's such a primal form of horror for me, when simple things are just - different... It's either painfully boring for people, or uniquely terrifying.

Fair enough, a CBC News review said
"Even though [Skinamarink] has cemented its place as one of my favourite releases of 2023, I almost feel I'd have better odds playing Russian roulette with a fully loaded gun than finding someone to recommend it to who'd actually enjoy it."
It's not a narrative film as much as just a mood, an evocation, tapping into a very unique experience.
