You know when things are just getting on top of you a bit, and you just need to let it all out?
What's your sure-fire way of getting the waterworks going?
For me, it's either the 'Sleepytime' episode of Bluey (there's something about the mix of the subject matter, alongside Jupiter that just gets me going) or, if I want to settle in for an evening of full-blown dehydration, Coco seems to do the trick.

This is where I think I am broken.
There are times where I genuinely just feel nothing. At all.
Not sad. Not happy. Not angry. Nothing at all.
Have you suffered a brain injury, severe trauma or been forced to sit in the home end at Carrow Road? Normally an extreme adverse experience like those can have lasting impacts. Maybe. Or I might have made that up.
A video of a mistreated dog rescued and scared, slowly learning to trust the people before being adopted and shown living a happy life where it is loved.
May be a sap but that will never fail to hit me like a train.
Edit - or sand under the foreskin.

Ill second that Bluey one. Baby race also gets rhe waterworks flowing as well for me.
Slightly odd one but the BBC closing montages for the 2021 and 2024 Olympics. Man, particularly since having a kid myself. In the 2021 one (I think), there is a clip of the 3 year old daughter of one of the athletes saying "good luck daddy" and that is the moment I normally lose it.

“What is a club in any case? Not the buildings or the directors or the people who are paid to represent it. It’s not the television contracts, get-out clauses, marketing departments or executive boxes. It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city. It’s a small boy clambering up stadium steps for the very first time, gripping his father’s hand, gawping at that hallowed stretch of turf beneath him and, without being able to do a thing about it, falling in love.”
Am prone to breaking down at inopportune moments and seems to be getting more prevalent as I get older.
Spending time with, or seeing pictures of, my granddaughter is usually a guarantee.
Myself and partner have always been fans of, among others, James Taylor. My partner has been going through rough time healthwise recently. I was doing something mundane recently and James Taylor’s Fire & Rain came on the radio and as soon as the first few chords/lines started found myself in floods of tears. No sobbing, just tears pouring down my cheeks.
Not really what the op was on about but music can have such a huge effect on us.
Better to stay silent and be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt

Music is a big one for me as well.
'I'll See You In My Dreams' by Springsteen is an absolute killer. I'd never heard it before, until I went to see him at Villa Park a couple of years ago, just after my grandfather had died.
I'm already fully resigned to the fact that I'll never be able to listen to it again after my dad goes.
