Such a wonderful series that tells silly yet poignant stories that are never cynical about people. I’ve been considering a re-watch.

Because you keep noticing new things, it's comforting, and it's a way of appreciating good art. In a way it's also anti-consumerist. My current favorite rewatch is The Bear.

Nothing makes me feel like this show does. Except for maybe the comfort of a perfectly warm blanket. or a wonderful, life affirming hug from a best friend. I watched it when it first came out in 2018 but since then I have rewatched it twice(?), and each time I do, my life around me just takes on such a safe and lovely overall aura.. truly a comfort show in every way and I’m getting ready for yet another rewatch with a friend who hasn’t seen it! every episode should be watched like a film. Plus - the acting is top fucking notch, the characters so carefully treated , these Mothers are doing some Serious Mothering every episode 😩😩😩😩

I’m not a parent and do not plan to be. Kids can wear me out fast with their high energy and noise level; it leaves me very over-stimulated. But it’s pretty extreme when people say they ”hate kids” and I often feel it’s a reflection of their childhood and beliefs around how kids “should be.” That they were expected to be quiet, obedient, and out of the way by their parents when they were little.
It’s fucking hard to be a kid. You’re dealing with a rapidly-changing body and underdeveloped brain, managed by flawed adults who are enforcing boundaries that you do not understand. It’s confusing and hard to manage your feelings and honestly just a lot.
People are impatient with kids when they‘re brand new to the world and figuring it all out, and this is a time kids need a friend the most. Children can also be teachers to adults with how they are less habituated to the world. They teach us how to be free and open-hearted and silly and imaginative.
A good practice is to be kinder and gentler with kids. If that feels difficult, start with gentleness toward your inner child. Maybe that’s the child in your life that needs your attention and kindness most.

I meant to post this yesterday. Absolutely beautiful morning for walk.
This morning is also beautiful but in a spring rain kind of way.
