“Stunbrella” is great. Top name. Slap a flashlight in the bottom of the handle, which can also be unscrewed off to unsheath a tanto-knife styled blade for piercing and prying (the flashlight end would essentially be the handle/pommel of this knife.)
Crackling candles with wooden wicks.
I like growing and tending to plants, painting miniatures, and working on DnD projects. All of these also generate a physical, tangible thing which is also nice (though I really wish I could use the DnD stuff more.)
Ehhhhhh, no. I support sobriety, but this is definitely not the answer. Yeah, bland is normal, but it is definitely not happiness, and there’s definitely such a thing as too much of it. It is important to have activities or hobbies that bring joy in life and help break out of that blandness.
Ah, my bad. Guess they’ll just churn out Elden slop for awhile.

Half-truth take. It’s not stretched artificially in the fashion you describe. It is still rife with artifical stretching. Rife with filler. An absolutely obnoxious amount of screaming. Several minutes in each episode wasted explaining what happened last time. And so on. It is garbage that needs to end, but for those who absolutely want to dive into it, I’d at least recommend canning the anime shit and just read the superior manga.
Made by the Futurama and Simpson guys, a Matt Groening show. More of a fantasy show with heavy comedy than a comedy show. Very, very strong continuity between episodes. This thread reminds me there are probably a new season or two out by now I need to go watch.
I watched this in the wake of K-Pop Demon Hunters. I am not the biggest fan of its animation aesthetic, but I got used to it. What caught me off guard is that the writing is pretty solid. This is also a very strong continuity show, one long plotline. Can you tell my interest in episodic animation is dead, now?
Honestly, it has been a very long time since I’ve watched this, but I feel like it should get a special mention. I dunno if it would stand the test of time, but it was both incredibly refreshing for the time (2004) while also parodying a lot of anime and videogame stuff I loved.
A show I was obsessed with for a few years. Metalocalypse was king of media in my life for a while. I had the first two Dethklok albums on CD. One of my most recent regrets is I had tickets to see Dethklok and Babymetal together in concert and did not go because depression was eating at me, and I just didn’t want to go out. That was so fucking stupid. I want to punch my past self.
