If you can get in the right mood for heavy philosophical & psychological topics, To Your Eternity hits so hard and the animation so solid and the art style matches

and then i forgot all the horror elements and I love it even more, the animation just elevates those moments 👌💯🔪

Watatabe is just so much perfect in handling the tense themes around depression while made with so much love the last episode was so amazingly beautiful and so much pain :'))))))))

and the voice actors so much love was put into this despite limited budget

FINALLY GOT IT!

I've taken well over 100,000 pelican pictures, maybe 200,000.

Over 20,000 the past month alone.

Today, I snagged "The One That Got Away"

In my infinite optimism, I give you, a very rare:

Fish success story.

🪶
a pelican with their mouth open, and two fish are above to fall into their pouch, but one is above another and may take a path out the pelicans mouth is closed, and there's a fish out the pelican looks at the camera, miffed, the fish is far away from its head at this point the pelican opens its beak and tries to go for it, but i can report back it failed, the fish was long gone

you can't tell me they made an entire hallmark movie about being single and the two main characters saying "it's ok to be single" during the whole thing and then mash them together like NO - hallmark would never do aroace rep but also like NO BAIT
screenshot of sango from pokemon horizons with a gangster angry face. there's also been a few number of hallmark movies where the female MC sounds aroace but then ofc she gets the boi at the end like pls no i want a movie where the women says NO i'm fine living alone and don't need a partner

there was a watercolor class being offered and i was interested and then i read that the person doing the class only did watercolor for like 7 years and i've been doing it for like 12 years so i was like nah

and then i heard the class wasn't great so i'm happy i didn't spend the money lolsdofl
screenshot of marcille from dungeon meshi having drunk face while holding a pumpkin face bowl. like i don't wanna be cocky cause you can always learn new stuff but the advertisement looked kinda wispy watercolory and that's not me but it's ok to learn different ways to do stuff. but my boss said that the person holding the class wasn't actually there so they had a sub and the sub was like "you gotta do what i'm doing" so it sounded more like a "paint and drink" thing where you do the bob ross steps rather than critically think about what you're doing so i'm glad i didn't waste my monies lolsefoeljklsdjlf

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

2 panel comic of my character in pokemon legends being outside the wild zone 8 with the aggressive alligator pokemon on me and the second panel is my gyarados is ramming everything with waterfall and whirlpool. also i know by now that whirlpool isn't that impressive but it was fun to watch it hit all the wild pokemans
