'The Polar Express' (2004)
A wondrously imaginative, diverse, and spirited allegory of childhood and the arduousness of adulthood.

Clara, a mother of two teenagers, is a woman open to new experiences who decides to create a profile on TILINK, a dating app. What goes through the mind of a twenty-something when she finds her own mother's profile on Tilink, the trendy dating app? Yes, his mother is still young. Yes, she's divorced from her father and has the right to rebuild her life, but.... Doesn't she know what Tilink is? There are only guys who are going to use her and then dump her, sex snipers... like himself. Dani and his sister Milena will embark on the delirious adventure of boycotting their mother's flirtations, and will go all out when the woman starts a more serious relationship with an Argentine yogurt man, convinced that he will only make her suffer. Only that the brothers' strategies will have the opposite effect to the desired one, there will be more and more men in their mother's life and nothing will turn out as they expect.

“Trust your gut" is one of the most common pieces of advice you’ll receive during your lifetime. And as a person inclined to trust my intuition above all else, it’s the most common advice I find myself giving in real life and in my online socialising. But what happens when your gut is trying to warn you that something is seriously wrong without you being able to identify what triggered it in the first place? How can you act on a feeling or make it go away when you don’t have a clue about what could be wrong? How can you trust your intuition when you don’t know what makes it act out in the first place?

An aspect of She-Ra that I find refreshing is even though a large portion of the cast is on the LGBTQ+ Spectrum, being gay is never mentioned. While this might initially sound like a negative thing, in the show’s land of Etheria being on the gay spectrum is shown to be so common and normalized that straight isn’t the default. As much as there is to appreciate about narratives revolving around the obstacles that may come from being non-heteronormative, it’s nice to get immersed in a world where no one bats an eye at all to any sort of differing identity.
