The Ghibli thing is particularly egregious because the reason you love Miyazaki movies is that they’re unabashedly human. He admits to not even knowing what it all means, he is just putting thoughts and feelings of the human experience on the screen and letting people relate.

This is how Israeli settlers and soldiers – supported by the entire Republican party & much of the Democratic party – is responding to a movie about peace:
BREAKING: Yuval Abraham, co-director of Oscar-winning documentary "No Other Land," says Israeli settlers beat his co-director Hamdan Ballal, injuring his head and stomach — and then Israeli soldiers invaded the ambulance he was in and seized him.

Ballal's whereabouts are now unknown.

Believing your relationship with art should always make you feel good is like expecting a long-term relationship to be all honeymoon phase. Unrealistic, unhealthy, and setting you up for disappointment.

NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.

Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.
