But I loved Maggie Gyllenhaal's directorial debut and will watch whatever she does next so my overriding reaction is respect for the vision. 3564

I know they mean well but I've seen them all and I hate them. I love cats. Seeing them uncomfortable and humiliated for human entertainment does nothing for me. 1022458163

Like I don't think they should actually exist outside the show or do anything in the real world. They should only exist to sit in chairs on TV and say things like 'IT'S A SCAM' or 'I could put that on QVC' 122867
Swamp Jawn @swampjawn.bsky.social · 22/06/2026It's a bit besides the point for the video I'm working on, but LOOK WHAT WAS STOLEN FROM US There's so much to commend about Witch Hat Atelier, but I can't help but wish they had kept a little more of the medieval woodcut style from the manga.
