October 20th-October 27th 2025

For awhile now, I have wanted to keep a weekly log of my media habits, but have failed, so here’s to trying again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again.

I will do my best to check over Netflix, Disney+, Plex, Hulu, YouTube, and Spotify. I’ll talk about something if it’s worth talking about.

TV

• The Apothecary Diaries - This show has officially moved into “comfort, rewatch show for me” and I couldn’t be more delighted.

YouTube

• I Gave Myself 24 Hours to 100% Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4: Love this slightly problematic man be real, real funny on video games.
• Jeremy Allen White Embraces Chaos While Eating Spicy Wings | Hot Ones: Gotta love this humble ugly boy.

Music/Podcasts:

• Redemption Song | Bob Marley and the Wailers - Chicken skin kind of song.
• A Life Well Wasted - I can recommend ‘Game Over’ and ‘Work’ episodes. The others didn’t age well imo.
• Te Whare Tiwekaweka - Absolute banger of a folk/Islander album.
• Butterfly | UMI - It’s been awhile, but jeez it seeps into the sad part of your heart.

Reading

• The Girl She Was Into Wasn’t A Girl At All | Volume 1 - One of the best yuri I have read.

Games

• The Thaumaturge - My what a world they were able to craft. Excellent, excellent story-telling, character, dialogue, voice-acting, and (rare for me) a fun and lightweight RPG combat system. Can’t recommend this enough!!
• Riddlewood Manor - Point-and-click horror with excellent aesthetic style and a good amount of humor to balance the horror. Highly recommend!

News/Essays

• ⭐FlyingBeagle: A Colonial Peace - Excellent, deep, and accessibly written. Read immediately.
