I don't watch TV or movies anymore. The last film I remember watching, I was in a military PAX (PAssenger Transport) terminal awaiting a bird to take this princess to another castle, and some troll thought it'd be a good idea to leave the movie, "Black Hawk Down" playing for everyone waiting for their bird to touch down. It wasn't looking good for the protagonists and I had to leave before the movie was over. I then later experienced extreme turbulence due to a sandstorm and we had to make an unscheduled landing (luckily at somewhere I also had equipment to service) but during the whole ordeal I thought I was going to die. I then made the realization that watching TV/Movies just raises my cortisol levels, and why am I doing that to myself? I don't want that. I stopped watching TV and Movies after that. I just create content now. I only listen to music for my media consumption. I just don't get people that need to watch horror to be terrified. I don't need horror to be terrified. I can just, turn on the TV, or, go outside!
