Encanto Book Tag

I watched Encanto while housesitting and ended up in a puddle on the floor. This movie is INTENSE. It absolutely deserved the Oscar for Best Animated Feature. If you haven't yet, please watch it. I found this book tag, created by Passport to Eden over on BookTube, on It's Just a Coffee Addicted Bibliophile. The… Continue reading Encanto Book Tag

I AM NOT HAVING A GOOD TIME. For many of us, Bad Time is kind of the default. For me, on top of the already tense atmosphere, everything that could possibly have gone wrong today did and I am unhappy about it. I left work early and stomped around my neighborhood for an hour. Now… Continue reading THINGS THAT BRING ME JOY: Disney Emoji Blitz

Second-string Fantasy Feminists

I came across a character I'd never heard of the other day that I immediately wanted on my fantasy feminist team.

MAKE-YOU-CRY MONDAY: Married Life

Today's montage is infamous for its ability to make everyone cry, save for one heartless friend of mine who said, "What's the big deal? It's not like she died young or something." "Up" is my favorite Pixar movie and the first time I saw it, it ruined my life. The only other movie to make me… Continue reading MAKE-YOU-CRY MONDAY: Married Life
