Star Trek the Original Series Season 1
(I forgot to publish this months ago) I decided I wanted to try to watch Star Trek. I feel like I don’t have my proper nerd cred without it. And I did not anticipate it being so fucking fun. I wasn’t sure how to write a report of it. I’ve concluded that I’ll do a…

No Longer Allowed in Another World Vol. 3-9
ISEKAI’D BY: Truck-Kun! (this entry does not add to the total) I ended up reading all the volumes I had in a row. I enjoyed the comedy, meeting the fucked up fallen angels— and then found that there’s rewriting powers, so things get reset, except they don’t, and also Sacchan is kinda an asshole. I…

Rosemary’s Baby
A young couple, Rosemary and Guy, moves into an infamous New York apartment building, known by frightening legends and mysterious events, with the purpose of starting a family. Liked the book better.

No Longer Allowed in Another World Vol. 1-2
ISEKAI’D BY: Truck-Kun! An adventure in another world with cute girls by your side and video game-like powers–sounds like an anime fan’s dream, right?

M's Media Menagerie
Thoughtful Dumping Grounds
Trope: Conveniently Cut-Off
This is the trope where someone is about to say something— Just playing. Clarifying information is cut off and leaves the rest of the explanation open for (mis)interpretation.
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.
