Thoughtful Dumping Grounds

Trope: Ambiguous Ending

The Descent

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Drama, Horror, Survival Horror

I’ve seen this one a few times, actually, so I rewatched it because I don’t think I ever saw the Descent 2 and wanted to revisit it. I remember young me, 12 years old, thinking, oh god. Juno is hot. It’s a good movie, led by an all-female cast. I love cave creature movies and

Letterkenny Season 3

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.
