The curse of being intelligent is that you wish you were dead π
ekko getting stuck in an alternate universe, meeting and falling in love with powder a second time, creating a mural of his universeβs vi from memory so powder can see what her sister looks like all grown up, inventing hextech so he can go back to his universe, using his time travel to talk jinx out of killing herself multiple times until he gets it right, and then saving everyoneβ¦ he is quite literally the man of the moment!! EKKO YOU WILL ALWAYS BE LOVED!!!

Me [frothing at the mouth]: Fruits Basket is a beautiful masterpiece and Iβm incredibly normal about it. Highly recommend.

Physical Alternatives to Subscription Media
ββ½γβγβΎβ
Let's face it, subscription models that companies flock to are absolute bullshit. Thankfully it has also begun to be their demise in this era of cost of living issues, people are realising that they don't need to be spending money on these things.
So, for the people who want to get off of subscription media because of their pure hate of it or just want to return to more physical media don't worry I gotchu ;]

Movies/Shows/Audio Books
...
Fun fact: Local libraries are free to sign up to, and free to borrow stuff from. Asides from books libraries usually carry audio books, movies, and sometimes cds. Loan times vary but usually are 1 week+ and is a free alternative to buying movies from pawn brokers.
Thrifting movies is also an option and is great for saving all that plastic from landfill, only downside however is the fact that they may be scratched or scuffed. Don't fret though, cds and DVDs can be easily fixed and aren't permanently damaged. (Unless there's bubbling/sun damage)

Music
...
Again thrifting is great for discovering new music and most thrift stores sell cd's for under $5 otherwise burning music is not too difficult as long as you have either an external disc drive or a computer with a disc port. If you're going to burn music I highly recommend finding a place where the artist actually sells their music directly so that they get most if not all money from your purchase.
Along those lines, a lot of artists will have physical copies of their music in either cd's, vinyl, or cassette so if at all possible try to buy directly from them and not a platforms store like Spotify's because companies are stingy and don't give a lot back to the artists.
Local music events are always something fun and you get to discover new artists while you're there so check around for flyers or even ask the managers of venues if they have any gigs that month. They're nice people and might even tell you if other stuff is happening at another location.

Games
...
THRIFTING!
Places have some really interesting stuff and usually for pretty cheap, the only downside is when shopping for PC games you'll need a disc drive.
