What goes on inside this enigmatic manor is anyone’s guess, but soot and shrieks billow up from within…

Homestead
I did not care for this movie. It was overacted, overdone, corny. Lot of masculine games going on until Ian gets shot and Jenna lets them all in and there’s, like. Faith stuff. Basically criticizing the need to hoard materials and prepper culture in the face of WWJD and stuff. That’s the good part, actually,

The Substance
In the pursuit of youth and beauty, you rob yourself. That’s the most basic message in the Substance. The very least you can get from it. But we can expand on that, can’t we? The disposal of aging women in our society, the need to meet male standards for women’s beauty, the men in position

M's Media Menagerie
Thoughtful Dumping Grounds
Trope: No one lives in Fucking Houses Like These
A house that a character lives in that realistically no normal human being would ever live comfortably in.
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.
