Banes at 12:00AM, Oct. 10, 2024



I was watching The Dead Zone again the other week, and thought that Johnny Smith might be the perfect horror Protagonist.

Cynicism

Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, July 14, 2024



Cynicism. That is the inclination to believe that people are motivated in large by their self-interest and therefore cannot be trusted – at least not initially.
