Shoresy
Foul-mouthed, chirp-serving, mother-loving, fan favourite character, Shoresy, joins the Sudbury Bulldogs of the Northern Ontario Senior Hockey Organization (The NOSHO) on a quest to never lose again. I didn’t think I would love Shoresy or this sports show or whatever, and then I watched Shoresy and my dumb ass weeped and celebrated and learned the

Letterkenny
As a whole, or for the rest of the seasons, whichever. Letterkenny was something we started watching with our buds— I’ve seen a bit of it before, yeah, and our buds reminded me it existed so I says, hell yeah. We’re gonna watch it. Pull it up. Now we just finished all twelve seasons and

I May Be a Guild Receptionist, but I’ll Solo Any Boss to Clock Out on Time
Bro, so, uh. This opening has absolutely no reason to go this hard. It legitimately looks better than the actual episodes. I. I admittedly. Have just sat and watched it a few times. The fuckin dinosaur and everything. Honestly, I really want to read the manga now because I. I want to see what else…

Would You Like to Be a Family
This is actually a collection of a couple stories, all of which are pretty cute one shots. I picked this one up because I’m a sucker for dark hair/dark eye mean lookin’ types. And family stuff. It’s cute. Look how petty he is. It’s so funny. That said, there are some, uh. Style drawbacks… In

The Healer Who Was Banished From His Party, Is, in Fact, the Strongest
So I only made it through 6 episodes. Usually when I drop anything, it’s because it’s offensively bad. This is not the case. I dropped this because… it’s not… great. It’s not bad, either. It’s mediocre. Middle of the road. It sure does exist and it sure does sit comfortably in the tropes. It doesn’t

M's Media Menagerie
Thoughtful Dumping Grounds
Trope: Haven’t I Seen You Before
Where a character is recognized from a brief encounter in the past.
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.
