A .38 Special song "Hold on loosely".
An Alan Jackson line, "Stark naked light bulb".
I can't quote any other Alan Jackson lyric, but that phrase encapsulates for me his profound talent at word art.0 -

anyways it worked great and now the majority of kitties have encountered this parasite, and the majority of humans too. so like 60% of the population has been exposed to this parasite at some point in time and other than upset tummy or whatever, we dont know it. *but* the parasite does the same thing to us, makes us really love kitties like want to be around them and have affection for them. also the parasite messes with our brain a bit, making us more susceptible to mental illness like depression and anxiety and even schizophrenia.
she told me all this and got to that last part around the time she was doing my wrist, which was the most pain, and it pavlov’d me somehow with an association so i look at that part of the flower sometimes and think “parasitic kitties cause depression” and tbh it makes me kinda unjustifiably mad at my cats
Please record all your stories. I love them.1 -

That whole Heaven's Gate debacle. I feel like I saw too much too early with that one.
Their website is still up and running btw. It's my homepage. 🙄3 -

According to their website, notes from the Heaven's Gate hardbound edition is available in a German translation.
Imagine my relief.

But back to the question op posted.
For me it's song's like in your room by halestorm that touched me to tears. When i hear song that i haven't heard in year's or a movie it's just like wow3 -
Certain scenes and cinematography do it for me. All of Mr. Robot basically, never has a style of TV been able to capture and embody anxiety on screen as well as that series.
Also, I’m in adoration of scenes with long cuts lately.
Sometimes books do it too. Particularly, philosophy. Which is also kind of dangerous in that it can render me in this state of existential dread and nearly get to a state of catatonia, but I can snap out of it.
I was reading some Jung lately and was just thinking to myself “How could this man be so astute in his observations about these intangible concepts and phenomena”. It perplexes the mind.
Just check this out.

Amazing insights into our minds. Also terrifying0 -
I’m fascinated by death too. Yes I know how scary that sounds but the whole paradox around fearing it is a mind bender.4

My first horse was a super steady dude, hardley ever spooked. There were these two old graves on a trail we used to ride, and he would never go anywhere near them. Freaked the heck out over them. It always freaked me out a bit.4 -
