Kindness, trust, magic, embracing the unknown. The OA to me is spiritual Sci-Fi at its true finest.

When I first watched this in middle school, I felt enamored by this dose of: steampunk. Obsessed with the new take on the yellow brick road, Zooey Deschanel having a blasé attitude towards finding the Emerald, the Mystic Man inhaling the vapors, and the dominatrix goddess Azkadellia (basically the Wicked Witch of the West but is also the older sister of D.G. (played by Zooey)(Code for Dorothy Gale…)). Anyways!!!! My soft spot is high fantasy and science fiction.

even with zero context the scene still works perfectly - it's such a perfect vertical slice of what makes the show so profound. if it makes you feel anything at all then you must watch the full show, because it's full of moments like this

I am by no means traditionally religious, but I fully understand how being in the presence of beautiful stained glass can feel like being with god.

I used to be envious of people who had “MySpace friends” or “tumblr friends”. Now I have PI.FYI friends. Thank you capyboppy for your lovely letter and this illustration of a capybara and a mouse with fruit on our heads, it made me weirdly emotional ❤️
