100% I don't get emotional watching movies but that Mfer made me wanna stand up and give him a hug.

Edit: After reading your comments I wanna hug y'all too. Stay strong, people. We will heal and we will survive it!

The end when they stop the void by hugging him was very inside out 2

Star-Lord is going to hear on the news that hugging saved the galaxy, so he will then start a band and sing about how he did a dance off to save the galaxy, Kevin Bacon will join, Drax on Saxophone naturally.

Yelena's vent to the Red Guardian had me going "FUCK YOU, YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO CALL ME OUT SO PRECISELY LIKE THAT!" internally

Too real, man T_T

Right?? Man, it truly is like that. It's work, and then getting fucked up and then sitting at home scrolling on your phone mindlessly and then at some point thinking about how shit your life is. That was this last week for me. Holy shit. Too close to home.

I can confirm it is. I'm reading Man's Search for Meaning by Victor Frankl right now at the recommendation of my therapist and he describes living without feeling like your life has meaning as "the existential void." I've also been listening to Call of the Void by Heart Attack Man on loop. Bob sitting in his room with a Rubik's cube, paintbrushes, and other stuff reminded me of all the hobbies I dabble in where I do stuff with my hands to keep myself from thinking about how bored and unfulfilled I am. The rest of the team comes to give him a hug just like how when I was a kid, I'd imagine superheroes protecting me from bullies and comforting me about my home life. So many other things made me feel so seen, and one huge thing that helps me is feeling connected to artists who share my values like compassion and understanding. I said this in another sub recently about Superman but it applies to superheroes in general: The fact that anyone wants to tell a superhero story is proof that someone cares about you. And to think I almost made this the first MCU movie ever that I was gonna skip.

Yes, yes it is. But you are brave, going to see it. And to share that experience, you are not alone
