My nephew says he’s given up on me.
He said it was bad enough when I told him I’ve never used Spotify and now that I’ve admitted I’ve never watched The Traitors, his head exploded.

Good morning.
A regular reminder: a tiny few hoard staggering wealth and own much of the media, while millions struggle to survive.
That’s not an accident. It’s a choice made by those in power.
Tax wealth. Fund public services. Build an economy for everyone - not the 1%.

Blakes 7 final episode.
The troopers surround Avon, who raises his gun and smiles. Gunfire is heard.

Given that apparently the Stranger Things finale was meh (idk, didn't watch it, just the scuttlebutt) and we're not that far removed from the disastrous GOT finale that retroactively made everyone have never cared about the show:

Has to be My Neighbor Totoro for me. It's pure and full of innocence.
In honor of Hayao Miyazaki's birthday, what's your favorite Studio Ghibli film? Doesn't have to be the one you think is "the best," just the one that nestled in your heart. Mine is Howl's Moving Castle.
