I didn't feel invested because of the things that they were demonstrating for me.

I'm sort of with you here, but I'm kind of on both sides of it.

There's an allusion to the aliens being like of supreme being nature.

And I'm sure that's like the best collection of words to say that.

But, like, the way they said it, I was like, wait, what?

Yeah, well, and I remember thinking to myself, like, if I were at home, I definitely would have rewound to re-hear what they just said, because how did we get here?

Like, what are we talking about?

I feel like I spend a lot of time thinking about God and religion coming out of divinity school in the last year.

And like I'm always interrogating these themes for myself as I've like left Christianity here recently and like I'm engaging religion in a lot different kinds of ways.

And so when I saw this theme happening in the film, I was like, oh, this is interesting.

But like I never really made any other notes past like supreme beings, God, question mark kind of thing.

Like, what are we doing here?

I do remember thinking, like, you're telling him he's being a bad manager, but he's, like, trying to kill people and, like, hide secrets and chasing people through woods.

You said it better than I did.

But also, you're not nice.

It's like, I don't understand what we're talking about, right?

I would also offer, as a person who has been a local news reporter, as a person who worked in production in local news, as a person who was a newspaper journalist in 11th grade, I count those years, mind you.

I'm thinking about the fact that I've been on social media for 20 years.

Right.

Like 20 years.
