[Dear Self. @Dearme2_]

Sex feels different when you never masturbate.

Getting drunk feels different when you have reasons to celebrate.

Spending money feels different when you’re rewarding yourself for your ambition and discipline.

Cheat meal feels different when you keep a strict diet.

Earn your fun.

Japanese actor Hiroyuki Sanada spoke about the contradictions of human nature:

“Some people dream of having a swimming pool at home, while those who have one hardly ever use it. Those who have lost a loved one feel a profound sense of loss, while others often complain about their living relatives. Those without a partner long for one, while those who have one often don't appreciate it. The hungry would give anything for a meal, while the satiated complain about the taste of their food. Those without a car dream of owning one, while those who have a car are always looking for a better one.”

The key to happiness is gratitude: truly seeing and appreciating what we already have, and understanding that somewhere, someone would give anything for what we take for granted.

One last time this Saturday.

[✧ @cessonmute]

In case you forgot:

We live on a planet where whales sing songs that travel for miles. Where trees can recognize their own offspring and protect them underground. Where dolphins give each other names and where lightning can create glass in the sand. Where horses can read human emotions. Where rain has a smell before it even arrives and where the ocean can glow in the dark. A planet where the stars we see might not even exist anymore.

Nintendo put up $50 million for the first Mario movie. Split the $100 million budget 50-50 with Universal. Walked away with $559 million in profit, beating both Barbie and Oppenheimer for the most profitable film of 2023.

Galaxy is running the same play. $372 million worldwide in five days on a $110 million budget. Already No. 9 on the all-time list of video game movies, and Japan hasn’t even opened yet (April 24).

The box office is almost beside the point for Nintendo, though. The movie is a $110 million ad for everything else they sell. Their licensing and merch arm keeps 85 cents of every dollar it brings in. Tiny business right now, just 2% of Nintendo’s revenue. But growing 15% a year. The first Mario movie pushed game sales, park visits, and merchandise up across every product line, and AMC alone ordered 500,000 pieces of Galaxy merch for its theaters, the biggest order since Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour film.

Switch 2 launched last June and sold 17 million consoles by December, faster than any Nintendo hardware ever. Mario Kart World moved 14 million copies. Galaxy drops right when all those buyers want more. Super Nintendo World theme parks are running in Japan, Hollywood, and Orlando, with Singapore under construction. A Zelda movie is filming in New Zealand. Due May 2027.

In 1993, Nintendo made a live-action Mario movie. It tanked. $40 million total on a $50 million budget. They quit Hollywood for 30 years. Today, Mario averages $700 million per film, Super Nintendo World parks are in three cities, and a Zelda movie is in production. Nintendo figured out that the movie’s job is to make you want everything around it.
