SHREK WEEK 2024: DAY 5

Touch grass

By Joseph Lavers

Good morning 🐣

Be sure to check out days one, two, three, and four if you missed ’em.

In terms of the U.S. election, this was going to be a rough week no matter what. As the third annual SHREK WEEK comes to a close, I hope it’s been able to add a little joy to your life and maybe even a little inspiration to go out there and make the world a better place. I want to thank each and every one of you fellow Shrekkies for joining me on the campaign trail. As always, it’s been a blast diving into this silly little franchise.

Please note: I’ll be taking the rest of the month off for a much-needed break. See you in December!

To round things out, here’s a collection of pretty, dreamlike images from Shrek the Third that might help ground us during these tumultuous times. Let’s all go outside and seek out calm, peaceful places like these, breathe deeply, and collect our thoughts.

Then the real work begins.

Until next time! 💚
