I'm going to start a thread to try to keep track of stuff I watched, read, listened to, or whatever through the year.
I have such a terrible memory and feel like I forget things as soon as I'm finished watching, so I think this will be interesting to look back on.

The fall of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor does NOT show "no one is above the law". What it shows is that a singular person can be made the fall guy if the elites deem it necessary. The majority of those who have done what Mountbatten-Windsor has and worse will not face any consequences.

If you want to extra do the reduce, reuse, recycle thing, get your mini loom from Worth Mending. This is one of the ones I have, and I adore it.
It’s made from almost 100% recycled stuff (like, wow!), and you’ll be supporting a small Canadian business. 🥰

Anyone around the Hurstbridge area interested in a bag of very fresh veggie garden produce? This bag keeps coming up on Too Good To Go.
We got a little while ago and I wouldn't say it was $30 worth, but they were lovely to deal with and we got a mix of veggies from their garden.

I love her.
“When Liu, 20, decided to return to skating, she did so with conditions. She’d wear what she wants. Dance to the music she wants. Eat what she wants. Take breaks when she wants…. [Skating] would be the vehicle through which she displayed the real Alysa.”
she did it! her! way!!
she did it! her! way!!
Alysa Liu’s Olympic run came with terms. Her choreographer helps her express them
Liu is the best U.S. hope for an Olympic medal in women's figure skating, which would be the country's first in the competition since 2006.

I have the worst allergies of my life, and got an appointment with an allergy/respiratory clinic, but with like 5 days notice.
I cannot do anything with that little notice. Are people usually able to make that work??

I've been researching how parents feed kids with a specific health condition.
It is horrifying the amount of them who won't feed their kids fruit because it has 'too much sugar'. Meanwhile they're adding lard as if it has magical healing powers.
How do you design health info for these people?

This makes me think of how they love to shit talk wine Mum's, but this kind of energy is exactly what we need right now.
That feeling of 'I've got you' - here's a jacket in case you're cold - do you need a snack?
It's these little moments of care which carry immense power that they cannot fight.

As the pedophile führer's ICE Nazis are ordered to release people they've kidnapped, they do it in the dead of night to make sure it's as cruel and brutal as possible. Fortunately, compassionate Patriots are there to meet them and make sure they're ok and driven to their homes.

My favourite vet show episode is when a dog eats something silly and the vets have to go fishing in their tummy. And the silly thing is retrieved and everyone is okay.
(except the owner who has perished from stress and also the cost)
Bonus is then they find like 5 extra silly things. 🧦🧸🪥🧩🪀

We're watching KPop Demon Hunters again and I realised that thunder boy says Abby when he means Zoey.
And now I've decided this is canon and Abby grew up and took the stage name Zoey.
Also, whenever there's no singing in this he very earnestly says "wait" and patiently waits for the next song. 🥰
