Dress Up
I love playing dress up. Every day presents a new chance to try out a new look, a new persona, a new identity. I usually rehash the old ones, but sometimes I’ll create something different. Every day is Halloween when you’re afraid to show yourself to strangers and friends. Some are for protection, others are…

Shifting Perception
Growing up comes with changes. They range from the obvious that happen during puberty, to the minute like how you stand when you wait in line for your coffee. All these different physical features, philosophies, mannerisms, likes, dislikes, and so much more make up who we are. For the most part, we’re aware of every…

Clannad: A Story of Life, Love, and Compassion
I’ve been meaning to watch Clannad for the past year or so, but was constantly bogged down with other shows and movies to watch. Finally, after getting tired of the last season of Hey Arnold! I put on Clannad this past Saturday. I intended to have this show be a casual watch as I keep…

A Slowpoke Review of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
I’m going to preface this by saying I highly recommend this show and if you want to watch it, go do it before reading this because I do include spoilers. Once again, I’m late to the hype for something, but no me importa. It’s hard for me to keep up with a show, so I…

The Quarantine Saga: The Perfect Backyard Baseball Lineup
I’ve seen a bunch of people throw their lineups around on the Internet, so I decided, fuck it I got time, might as well put together my GOAT lineup, as well. Most people feature 3 or 4 Backyard kids, but I do not follow that strategy. I don’t know if that’s considered cheap or whatever,…

The Quarantine Saga: Give Country a Chance
Country music might be the most polarizing topics in music culture and possibly life itself. It seems people fall under one of two categories: either you hate country music with a burning passion and wish to see it vanish from the earth and plunge back into the depths of hell where it came from, or…

The Quarantine Saga: A Slowpoke Review of Bojack Horseman
My brother put me on to Bojack Horseman when it first came out. He and I loved the show and anticipated each new season feverishly. After season four came out, however, I took a step back from the show because I worried about the effect it was having on my mental health. The show’s dark,…
