Something I love about my job that I don’t talk about much is the letters we get from inmates. You’d be surprised how many letters we get from folks that are locked up, telling us that Toonami is one of the only things that gets them through their week.
One of the reasons I wanted a job in media was to be able to provide people a respite/escape, however fleeting, from the problems we all face in this dark, cold world.
It’s nice to know that even those who are truly behind the 8-Ball can get something out of what we do, and it reminds me how lucky and privileged I am to be able to do what I do for a living. Knowing it helps some people gives even the “meaningless” work, meaning.
Thanks for watching and listening, and thanks to everyone who reached out to tell me something I worked on touched you in some way. It keeps me going💖
