i call bbc merlin a comfort show as if it weren't frustrating and traumatizing on like ten different levels, didn't kill off almost every single character, and didn't have the most disappointing, devastating, unforgivable series finale i've ever seen.

Is me specifying I’m arospec heterosexual minimizing the struggle of being open about one’s sexuality? Because despite being arospec and having struggles with it throughout my life I still have straight privilege so I don’t wanna be insensitive. I don’t feel comfortable calling myself a non-arospec straight person tho.

Pienso que tú pareja influye en ti, y no lo veo de la manera en que te haga necesario cambiar, no. Creo firmemente que cuando estás con alguien correcto eso influye en tu vida; eres más feliz y sientes que por fin la vida va en alza, cambias tu modo de ver la cosas y vas mejorando para ser mejor persona y no por ella, sino por ti mismo para agradecerle por aparecer en tu vida.

Bluey Spoilers for The Sign (S3 Special)
This episode is so polished, not just from an animation and story standpoint, but also on a structural level.
I really wanna talk about it, so let's go step by step with this.
Early on in this episode (it's over 30 minutes instead of the usual 7), Calypso tells Bluey a story about a farmer who is granted what appears to be good luck (having a horse), which actually leads to bad luck (getting injured from the horse and is forced to stay in bed), but then leads to good luck (the military comes and takes all the young men from the village, except the farmer, because he couldn't leave his bed). It's basically the "blessing in disguise" idiom.
Good luck, bad luck, good luck.
Bluey is confused by the ambiguous ending, not understanding how an ending can be both happy or sad.
Then the rest of the episode proceeds to illustrate this idea for Bluey to better understand it.
The whole episode uses the same reversal of fortune structure right to the end. Just when I thought they'd finished using it, it would come back again, bringing more and more previously planted elements into play.
Bluey's Mum needs to find the missing bride (bad fortune), so she takes the girls to a bubble tea shop where Bluey finds a coin (good fortune). They find a telescope and Bluey has a coin to use it, but it gets stuck and she gets upset (bad fortune). Because the coin is stuck, the sheep dog family are able to use the telescope later on to spy a different house they want to buy instead.
Bluey will never realise that her actions directly affected the outcome of her getting to keep her home. asdfghjkl
There's so many other details I'm leaving out, but that illustrates the overall structure.
I love domino affect stories like that where everything's interconnected and little details from one person's life are directly affecting a stranger's. It's very Dirk Gently, it's very 428 Shibuya Scramble, it's very Good Omens. It creates this emerging narrative that our lives are more intertwined than we realise and that trying to do right by your community effects your community (and past it) more than you can even be fully aware of. I think it's an important message for kids (anyone really), because it gives you this perspective on life that urges you to try to do the right thing, even in the face of feeling powerless or small.

Christmas Movie, but it's from the perspective of Jesus Christ, who sneaks back to Earth, and is immediately confused why everyone is celebrating his birthday in December.
He wanders into a Megachurch on accident, thinking it was a mini mall, and hears an evangelist (who lives in a mansion) taking the Lord's name in Vain to guilt donations out of people. Then he gets arrested for rushing the stage and beating that guy with a whip.
A significant chunk of the movie is just his elaborate escape from prison, wherein he starts a riot upon learning how cruelly the prisoners are treated by a blasphemous carceral system.
The movie ends with him using God Magic on the president of the US, and being formally declared the Anti Christ by the Catholic Church

¿Libertad? ¿En qué momento crees que sos libre?
Y creo que eres libre cuando un domingo a las 16:00 no extrañas a nadie, cuando te sientes cómodo llegando a casa y te acuestas a escuchar música solo en tu cuarto, eres libre cuando decides y eres objetivo con quién quieres estar y no estás mendigando cariño a nadie. Eres libre cuando un lunes a las 6:00 te despiertas queriendo iniciar el día, cuando llega el fin de semana y no te afecta el no tener compañía. Eres libre desde el momento en el que sueltas todo lo que te ata; ya sean personas, lugares, recuerdos e incluso momentos. Eres libre cuando decides irte por ti mismo y nada te detiene.
