It just feels like overconsumption crossing over into media and creative spaces. Like, are you watching this to get something out of it? Or are you watching it to say you did? I try to watch/read what's important to me and i want to live in that world for the short time I'm there.

And finally, my all time hall of fame best holiday ad ever. I'm not dumb, I know this is all to sell products, but if in the process you deliver a compassionate masterpiece like this, I'll take 10 of whatever it is. Love is a verb.

This one speaks for itself. The ending...

This one hits on so many levels. The contemplative reflection on mortality, the memory of a Christmas that changed the trajectory of your life, remembering that there was a time that your parents saw & accepted you, even if they didn't in your adulthood. I sob every time.

I'm finding that most of my favorites tend to be animal focused. The ending to this one, along with the song, just fries me.

The one that stole my heart the hardest and has made this song forever a Christmas song to me.

Just sent it to my Santa to ask for it for Christmas! It will go so well with my Papa on a Pew. You're wonderfully talented 🥰

This is beautiful 😭

I thought Joshua Odjick was like 18 tops, I was glad to see that he's 24 so I can respectfully gaze upon him admiringly when I see him in films 🤣

I'm attracted to all genders but often I'll find myself watching a movie and seeing a young-looking actor who i think is hot, and I legit Google their age to determine if having a totally innocent crush on a person i will never meet is ok or disgusting. Maybe that's overkill but I'm not a perv.

I love my Peeps! I don't know if they sell additional Peeps Jibbitz 🤔

We are abandoning God in the name of those who claim to speak for Him. We are placing the church over those they are supposed to serve. It's idolatry. I'm not surprised, I'm just tired and sad. We've fallen so far.

Women answering phones at the churches not only denying a mother a $20 can of formula but also not offering any other resources or even a prayer for her, and people saying it's not the church's responsibility to feed starving babies (?). It's bleak out there, y'all.

Other highlights: some rat-bastard piece of shit pastor at his pulpit wearing a Rolex, calling Nikalie a witch and wishing for her death while his congregation cheered, a pastor in his bathrobe making a video saying that a mother asking for a small can of formula for her baby was probably a scam...

Neither do parrots. You can snooze an alarm, but you cannot snooze a tie-dyed chicken that can scream.
