"I was watching the new season of black mirror (surprise, it's dogshit) and one of the eps hinges on a multiverse premise where this one girl keeps having shows made of her life across different dimensions or whatever the fuck. Then she breaks the cycle and decides to live in her own timeline!"
can we fucking retire the concept of the """multiverse""" already? · u/SeeYouSpaceCowboy0 · ↑580 · 2023-06-26
"I feel like I'm in a black mirror episode. Are you guys real? Are the posts here AI generated? fuck"

"I can only be peer pressured into watching Black Mirror so many times, why not info dump to me about an educational film with a budget of $50k that you watched in the 5th grade (and every year since)?"

"Hate calling something "just like black mirror" but man it's so dark."
The Joshua Block (worldoftshirts) thing is so grim. · u/MoistTadpoles · ↑371 · 2025-04-14
"Imagine being in your last moments, injured, covered in dust, almost alone but with your opponent's drone hovering behind you. All you can do is use your remaining arm to chuck a stick at it. This is broadcasted for the world to see afterwards."
Can't stop thinking about how Black Mirror-ish Sinwar's death was · u/publiclibrarylover · ↑336 · 2024-10-22
"It's bad. It's been bad for years. You know it's bad, and you expect more of it to be bad. And then you watch it and it's bad and you don't like it."
Why are you watching Black Mirror · u/OberstScythe · ↑232 · 2023-06-27
"I've also seen this happen at concerts, bars, and other populated areas. It always feels really strange and Black Mirror-esque to witness it."
Anyone else find BeReal to be completely dystopian? · u/rdyaarnb · ↑189 · 2022-10-27
"We just kept hooking up and having a insane time doing it but not doing anything besides hooking up. It was at that weird point where I was spending 3-4 nights a week at someone's house but not ever texting them besides to come over. I leave for a trip for a week today so we were in bed last night a"

"I think I'm just gonna have to accept that everytime there is a high profile crime involving a white person and a poc, angry internet users are gonna donate millions to whatever side shares their racial identity. Eventually we are basically just gonna be crowdsourcing hitmen to go after our least fa"
People go-fund-me-ing a race war is so bleak · u/Candid-Owl-2668 · ↑112 · 2025-04-19
"My best shot at explaining is I think BM relies on sensationalism, technophobia and extreme, absurd scenarios which shock people and give them a dopamine hit, but as a whole the message of the show is hollow. The bleak dystopia it wants to warn us about rarely connects with reality."
"idk, i'm just baffled everytime i hear someone say they're quitting their job to make content. it feels so black mirror and unsettling."

"Anyone remember that Jon Hamm ep of Black Mirror where he basically gets blocked from society for some crime and everyone who sees him just sees a digital grey blur? no matter how much he tries to interact with people, he's basically a ghost without a voice who's left totally alone to stew in his ow"

"Zoomers: Openly pro-selling out. Their perception of work, family, relationships, and society is incredibly pessimistic. 'Act your wage,' quiet quitting, Doomer memes, climate despair, heavily romanticizing/aestheticizing the past, situationships, rising singlehood, declining car culture, Black Mirr"
