I just read the most amazing article looking at the hidden message of Pixar’s films. It’s well analyzed and written, but the best part is that- if you agree with Kyle Munkittrick- this is a great example of how art and stories can actually change the...

I haven’t had time to adjust to the currents here, the motion that comes before the changing of the seasons, those scents and smells that usher in the parts of the year. It makes me lost. At home, those currents are burned into my brain. There is a smell that...
