I saw the movie 100 meters which is from the same creator as Orb on the Movements of the Earth (Uoto). If you have that competitive spirit or were a former athlete, this movie is a must watch.

After 5 years Kaiju No 8 manga has come to an end. With 129 chapters across 16 volumes it has been a up and down journey. I wanted to talk through my thoughts on the series as a whole from start to the final chapter. Obviously SPOILERS so enjoy.______________________________Follow meMy website: https://dadneedstotalk.com/Blue Sky: dadneedstotalk2.bsky.socialTwitter: https://twitter.com/DadNeedsToTalkInstagram: https://www.instagram...
It has been a very strange last 7 days. Recent losses, close calls in other situations have taken its toll on me mentally. I start the show talking through some things. Then I use some recent movies I saw to help shape a conversation about us as a person at our core. I hope you can take something from this episode.

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
