    Cell to Singularity

    I don’t think I like this game very much. It’s got an addictive nature and demands my attention. I like my clickers to be idle and not to shove a lot of PAY 2 WIN shoved in my face. I am not pleased.

    when i was a kid this was peak comedy.now it did not age well.it’s an old style wayans brothers production, leaning heavy on racial jokes and weed jokes and dick jokes and juvenile humor all around. that’s fine, but we veer into like… transphobic territory, homophobic territory, the terrible depiction of autistic people, and just…

Welcome to the Menagerie.

Here is where M logs their media activity. Partly because Goodreads is forgettable and keeping physical logs is harder. Sometimes M writes a lot. Sometimes M doesn’t write enough. It doesn’t matter. This is just a for-fun little blog so that M can remember what they thought about whatever they watched or read or played or. Whatever.


What is M?

I read. Voraciously. I have subscriptions to those book things on digital retailers. I consume books at nearly all hours. The hours I don’t spend reading? I’m writing. I’m drawing. I have a problem. I have a problem in that I love to read things that are in the same vein repeatedly. Book journals don’t work and as much as I text my friends screenshots of book passages, it doesn’t scratch the itch. Now I’m going to be doing… tiny… tiny book reports.
