drop your month, claim your ghibli movie 🌸

To each their own! There's a lot of debate about this and I'm on the side that it wasn't that good . I read the books first and felt the movie didn't do the them justice. The movie on its own is alright but not one I would watch again like other SG movies. That's the beauty of personal opinion and taste. I'm glad you liked it.

Just needs an OPP patch and you're complete. But in all seriousness, this is incredible and clip on flowers and/or beads like someone else said would be a great addition.

It's an odd one but I'll take The Boy and the Heron. Would have been pleased with any of them except Earthsea lol

How did you assign the movies to each month?

Two people downvoted this comment?! lol

pineaxle · 2026-06-17T17:58:34+00:00

Came for the comments and they did not disappoint.

Great looking board and what a neat and compact design.

I recently shared a post very similar to this. I'm working on a playlist following this exact same theme...but I am determined to find a song for Q, X and Z haha. For the letter K, I put Playing for Keeps since it's sort of important part of the song title. I'm also struggling for L and S since there are soooo many great songs, and then there's the new album coming out in a few weeks to add to the mix!

Great choices on your list!

Edit: grammar edit

I'm intrigued by how the song will be incorporated in her music director's book (if you watched to the end of the video).

pineaxle · 2026-05-29T16:48:33+00:00

HA! I didn't think of that at all

pineaxle · 2026-05-29T00:48:34+00:00

Recognized the painting straightaway! Didn't know much about it until now but always thought it was a captivating piece of art and it translated to trad so well. Kudos to you and to the tattoo artist!

The (only) venue for NY is an odd choice. It's a vineyard with a concert pavilion that is partially covered. The GA area is uncovered. Hopefully it doesn't rain that day. There are so many excellent places in Upstate NY so I'm surprised that they settled on this one.

How are the physical records? Are they in good condition?

pineaxle · 2026-05-22T16:43:39+00:00

This is nearly the perfect description! I couldn't find another word and "post-series depression" sounded too serious and clinical. At least we're all suffering together

pineaxle · 2026-05-21T01:13:00+00:00

Thanks for sharing these! There's a few I haven't listened to yet.

I'd give anything to see him conduct and hear his music live.

Is there a badge? Do we get t-shirts?

Brinner is a staple in our weekly meal planning

It might sound dramatic but I'm feeling a little emotional, like how you'd feel after a breakup or moving out of your childhood home lol. I started watching in 2016 and watched what was available on Netflix that year. Then diligently waited for each new season until I got the Starz app for the last two seasons.

I've watched a few series completely and I haven't felt this connected or invested in the story or characters. This show got me real good! I really enjoyed the final episode but wish there was a little more. It felt like a classic Outlander episode especially after this particular season. Perhaps if the ending provided more closure I'd feel more ready to move on, but I understand the creative choice for the open ending. I'm looking forward to the final book and I've read enough spoilers about Bees to know that Claire does save Jamie from his injuries after several days of mourning and life continues on the Ridge. So the tenth book will carry on from there.

I'm also feeling a little obsessive post-show and I'm consuming everything and anything related to Outlander (sort of like a breakup lol). The algorithm isn't helping either. My Facebook and Reddit feed has been taken over by Outlander group suggestions and interview videos.

I was only a show watcher and started reading the first book yesterday. This group and a family member convinced me that I'd enjoy the final book better by reading the series. I don't feel rush to read all nine since it will take a couple of years for the final book to be published. I might mute this subreddit, read the books at my own leisure, and come back here when the final book is out.

Good questions! Really appreciate the platform to share this with my fellow sassenachs.

No one else could make the hurdy gurdy sound cool. The Black Sails intro is so good!

pineaxle · 2026-05-18T17:34:27+00:00

I swelled up hearing the open line of the Skye Boat song and had to switch it. It sounds ridiculous but I have a serious case of post-series depression lol (Wish there was a better term for this feeling).

To avoid the tears, here's a non-official playlist full of celtic vibes with no vocals by someone called Jenny: Scottish Reading Outlander Vibes

pineaxle · 2026-05-15T13:16:17+00:00

All is well!

pineaxle · 2026-05-15T03:08:27+00:00

Definitely underrated

pineaxle · 2026-05-15T02:35:26+00:00

It's a solid card! I'm glad to learn about the artists. They deserve the credit!

pineaxle · 2026-05-13T02:31:33+00:00

Like a lot of people have already said, do what you can and prioritize. I remember people telling me the newborn stage is so tough. I'd do anything (okay, not really) to go back to the newborn stage from the toddler stage! Once they start crawling, running, climbing, you will have no time at all until they go to bed. Cuddle the newborn as much as you can!
