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…

The Minecraft Movie
We decided to fuck around and have a Minecraft-themed party that encapsulated Father’s Day, my birthday, Remy’s birthday, and his kid’s birthday. Honestly, it was unexpectedly fun? Hammy, dumb, B-movie quality with AAA budget. Did you know that it has like 6 writers??? I was fascinated by this movie. It’s bad, for real, but it’s…

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’m the Villainess, So I’m Taming the Final Boss
Y’all have no idea how jazzed I was to see that this is an anime. I’ve read the manga a few times, but the manga stops right after she successfully stops the Demon Lord from changing. Imagine my surprise at the second half of the series!! And I also am collecting the light novel series…

M's Media Menagerie
Thoughtful Dumping Grounds
Trope: Shitty & Stupid Ex
The ex is so toxic and stupid that they are basically a cartoon. They continue to move with disdain for the main character, sometimes even going out of their way to really fuck things up.
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.
