Thoughtful Dumping Grounds

Trope: Scary Architect

What the fuck is wrong with architects? They make scary houses, for one, and for two, there is something deeply wrong with them. This is such a weird and hyperspecific trope but it’s weird that it keeps happening.

Escape Room

⭐⭐⭐

Six strangers find themselves in circumstances beyond their control, and must use their wits to survive. nothing to do with the movie, but taylor russell is just beautiful… anyway, this is a fun movie that has a saw-esque premise of people dropped into an extreme survival situation that is very, very personalized to their trauma.

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.
