After a soul-crushing Tinder date, a woman returns to her apartment to cook some squid and seethe. Her eye starts to itch; her memory starts to skip, and she starts to spiral. Offense is an auditory explosion and an exploration of the rash of loneliness...and what happens when the voices inside our heads start to warp.

I don’t see the beauty in this people claim to see although I did find it interesting. But I think on the whole I’d rather get my mental health insights from a text book.

Odd and disturbing

Apparently I missed the point of this. Honestly without the little title synopsis I wouldn't have had any idea what the point of this story was.
The performance and other sounds/music was great which is why I gave it the stars I did.
But really not so great to waste a half hour I could have been listening to something better.

weird.
