I use https://numbr.dev/ as it’s web based and everything you type is encoded into the URL so it’s easy to create templates. it’s replaced my numi usage and it’s pretty seamless for my small usecase.

this would make an incredible adult animated series. I think doing skitter’s bugs would be difficult as a live action

what cream cheese do you use? I’m severely lactose intolerant and I haven’t found a decent one yet

my personal favorite is Kiki’s Delivery Service, as it’s a film that doesn’t have common Disney/Western tropes of trauma or horrible things happening. the main character has a loving family, she is strong willed, sticks to her convictions and is honest/empathetic/kind. there’s action and conflict in a non violent way and the characters are sane. while I don’t have kids, it’s also appropriate for children and has lessons that are valuable for all ages.

the animation is beautiful to boot and the story is fun. I honestly think it’s an example of a perfect film.
