21 Movies and TV Shows That Are Mostly “good Porn”
You will be forgiven if you spend the last, well, 15 months (or longer) in a constant state of anxiety. Of course, in 2021, it’s easy to forget that there are as many reasons for joy in life as there are for regrets. Maybe even more! May be. But with that in mind – and striving to be a positive force in the world yourself – it may be necessary to reconfigure the lens through which you look at the people around you. As usual, Mr. Rogers’ legacy is here to help. In Pennsylvania, Sunday is the 143rd day – the 143rd day of the year; 143 was Mr. Rogers’ favorite number, his lifelong adult weight, and his special code for letting others say “I love you.” This day is intended to mark the most important and simple tasks of the beloved children’s TV presenter: “Imagine what our real areas would be like if each of us, naturally, would offer only one kind word to another person.” If we are all a little kinder to each other, the world will really get better – there is even science to back this up .
That’s all well and good, but how can you be inspired to meet every day like Mr. Rogers? Maybe you just need to live by example. This is followed by 21 films and TV series that show how important it is to move through life with kindness and compassion for others in everything you do. Of course, this is a damn high bar, but I trust that you can handle it and die trying. (And since we need all the help we can get, share your own choices in the comments – without the usual resentment of lists, please; remember, kindness matters.)
