I don’t have this problem when reading novels or comics on the same devices, what gives?

    WebMD says it’s a brain tumor. Or an ear infection. Or lupus. But it’s almost never lupus.

      you want to ruin a hypochondriac’s day? look up headache on WebMD’s symptom checker.

      It goes from “you have a headache” to… “You’re going to die” rather quickly. and boy, oh boy, are their options on the scary end.

    On all screens? All movies and all tv? Is this with a new tv? When you go to the movies with a projector too?

    Try changing the tv setting to “movie mode” or “cinema mode”. You can google for the difference it gives.

    Could be motion sickness.

    Is it recent and only with some TV’s or maybe with a new one you bought. If so its possible changing some settings will make it more palatable. Apologies but I really don’t know about this stuff as I have not messed around with configs but I have seen a variety of stuff around modern tvs and settings. In particular I found out why my work tv gave me a creep uncanny valley sensation compared to my home one.

      No idea why you didn’t finish this thought, but I’m going to guess it was because of frame interpolation right? That shit is so gross.

    You really should go to a doctor. Like. really. If it’s common and you don’t have a clear “its this” (like standing up suddenly, or some other condition you know about,) Sudden lightedness that comes and goes could be one of several awful things.

    (or it could totally something not scary at all.)

    We’re not doctors… (and honestly, it’s not stupid to ask a doctor this. but it is kinda stupid to ask randos on the internet. thats how you wind up snorting ground up leeches or something weird.)
