5 Centimeters Per Your Name
Maybe don't watch this unless you've seen Your Name. (2016), but this is a fun blending of comparative shots in 5 Centimeters Per Second (2007) and Your Name.

You might think from the headline that this is a story about a trans kid suffering medical consequences from a large drug dose but nope! It is just an interview with an estranged father who is angry that his child happily transitioned.

An ICE agent has been arrested for putting a woman in a chokehold and causing “serious physical harm”
Police said they had been called to the residence 22 times
It’s time we talk about what kind of men are attracted to being ICE agents
Hint: It’s men who would strangle a woman

Transition is a matter of free will and freedom. Trans people are going to do it anyway and you cannot stop them.
We are full human beings with the right to decide our lives for ourselves and no one has a right to stand in the way of that.

one of the main reasons trans healthcare moved away from strict gatekeeping and toward informed consent & GAC is that trans ppl who were denied the means to transition would simply seek it out elsewhere
What did you think would happen when you restricted access to care?

masakazu sugimori is just a master of the craft of creating tracks that have huge forward momentum while being a loop at the same time, an incredibly difficult feat. this is a huge part in why the narrative of AA is so compelling, it's SCORED in a way almost no other game (that i know of) has

Unrelated to Enterprise but speaking of things not being (as) good:
Finished Prime 4 today. Took me about 12 hours. And I had SO many thoughts on it, I had to write over 5000 words on it.
Metroid is very, very important to me, and I was so sadly disappointed in Prime 4. I think I'll be sad for ages.
Here's a link to my review:
