It's So Fucking Good - Blog Posts
Hello, yes, I'd like to slam the entire 22 Redwall novels by Brian Jacques down onto the counter and then add several picture books, recipe books, and supplemental mini-series.
I would like to look the Internet at large in the eye when I say the following.
These books are an excellent way to see cruel people from their own points of view just as you can see the kind and heroic people's perspectives. It might royally piss you off, even, to realize that you have motivations in common with a scoundrel. That you will have sympathy for the power-hungry murderer. That you might mourn for a monster even as you're so glad the monster is dead.
And you're going to love these characters. You're going to love the camaraderie and the jokes and the squabbling. The coming-of-age stories and the parents seeking to protect their children. You're going to cry so fucking hard at some point, guaranteed, and it's going to feel so cleansing.
Also! Brian Jacques wrote these books with massive feasts and was particularly descriptive about taste. This is because he often volunteered to read to blind kids and became frustrated with how so many books relied on visual descriptions, so he made it a point to focus on a different sense.
I think every single book worm had that series that got them through shitty teenage years. For me that series was Tigers Curse by Colleen Houck. The series quite literly was my source of hope and joy during my early teen years. Was my lifeline. It's definitely YA and a little cringe to read as an adult but it's like a found friend that holds nothing but fond memoriesđŸ’™đŸ–¤.
What was your hard time book series?
And that's a fact
megamind is one of the greatest animated films of the 21st century, one of the funniest films of all time, one of the greatest superhero movies and satires ever made, and was a gift from god in heaven unto humanity, and all current events are just punishment for us failing to appreciate god’s gift back in 2010
Debauchery and obscenity.
Be careful.
P.S. And yes, I do not know what anatomy is.
Happy Belated Halloween! (Guess what I just finished?)
Underwater thoughts
The end of Get in the Water, Jorge does an awesome job at making the listener truly feel like Odysseus is underwater. I think that the voices we hear is not just the people that Ody has lost in the journey, but echos of the underworld. It's the people he's lost telling him that they are waiting for him to join them in death.
I see it as less of them saying that to show that they support him, and more to show that Odysseus really was dying. It was the reminder of all he'd lost tho that made him climb back onto his raft.
