Anyone here want to start a film club?

Kinda tired of going to the movies myself lol. Since there are so many indie theatres screening cool stuff in Toronto, I thought I’d see if there were any film buffs who’d like to periodically hang out and go to the movies?

Has anyone else attempted suicide?

I’m in my late 20s, and shortly after my 20th birthday, I hanged myself (autistic, beaten by my father and belittled by my mother as a child, neurotic, obsessive-compulsive, and generally miserable.)

I apparently survived without any real damage, but ever since, I’ve felt like a temperamental, short-sighted, obtuse manchild. A few years ago, I even developed, embarrassingly, a porn addiction, something completely out of character with who I was pre-attempt. Not to disrespect any man who’s grappled with it, but to watch with the regularity I did seems to point to some regression, some decay in the actual structure of the brain.

I’m currently studying for a PhD in philosophy, but am easily the least talented in my cohort, with the possible exception of a peer with whom I briefly hooked up. I used to be a reasonably charming conversationalist with a quick wit and fairly wide range of knowledge, but I’m a stammering dimwit mouthing platitudes on a good day now. My memory seems to be actively deteriorating to this day, and I’ve basically resigned myself to premature mental decline.
