 Straight [audiobook, short story]

THIS IS CHUCK TINGLE WRITING FICTION THAT ISN'T GIMMICK EROTICA. HE'S NOT A BAD WRITER. THE CONCEPT OF THIS IS A WORLD WHERE ONE DAY A YEAR A SPACE ANOMALY CAUSES EVERY STRAIGHT PERSON TO LOSE THEIR MIND AND BECOME CONFUSED AND VIOLENT THE STORY THEN FOLLOWS A GROUP OF LGBT PEOPLE I THE THIRD YEAR AFTER A VACCINE HAS BEEN RELEASED AND THE TRUST AND DISTRUST AND EVENTUALLY JUST BECOMING A ZOMBIE STORY. IT'S NOT BAD. YOU CAN TELL THE WEIRD THINGS CHUCK TINGLE FOCUSES ON. 

PS. NO, I GET IT, I GET THE POINT OF THE STORY, NO, I GET IT. I KNOW I'M THE GUY THAT WOULD SAY THIS, I KNOW. BUT THE MORAL WAS SO WEIRD. LIKE, THE IDEA WAS ALLIES WILL ALWAYS ABANDON THINGS WHEN STUFF GETS ROUGH BUT LIKE.... THEY IMMEDIATELY LEFT JERMY FOR DEAD WHEN HE HURT HIS ANKLE, THEY DIDN'T EVEN CHECK IF HE WAS OKAY, THEY JUST RAN AWAY, THEN THE STRAIGHT GUY LIKE, CAME BACK AND FOUGHT TO THE DEATH WITH A BASEBALL BAT TRYING TO SAVE THEM AND ONLY LEFT WHEN HE WAS LITERALLY SHOT. IT WAS SUCH A WEIRD DISCORDANT CONCLUTION. LIKE HE WROTE THE END THEN FORGOT WHAT HE WROTE EARILIER, IT COMES OFF AS SO MEAN TO BRANDON!

Encanto [movie]

 Encanto [movie] I FEEL LIKE THIS WAS A GOOD MOVIE THAT WAS WAY TOO UNFOCUSED TO BE A GREAT MOVIE. LIKE THE WHOLE OPENING SONG WAS A JOKE THAT THEY WERE INTRODUCING TOO MANY CHARACTERS THEN IT FELT LIKE ALL THE ISSUES EVERYONE WAS HAVING WAS SUPER LIGHT BECAUSE THERE WAS TOO MANY CHARACTERS. LIKE THE WHOLE "I HATE MY SISTER/OH I'M SO MAD I MAD A CACTUS/ACTUALLY I'M HAPPY NOW" ARC IS LIKE A MINUTE OF SCREEN TIME FOR NO REASON.  PS. I FEEL LIKE REWRITING IT SO ANIMAL KID WAS HIDING UNDER THE BED MORE SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE GRANDMA WOULD HATE HIM IF HE DIDN'T HAVE A GOOD POWER WOULD HAVE MADE THE CONFLICT SEEM LESS PULLED OUT OF NO WHERE. LIKE A GRANDMA HAVING TOO HIGH EXPECTATIONS IS REASONABLE BUT IT'S NEVER REALLY ESTABLISHED AS A PROBLEM UNTIL IT'S A PROBLEM.

Magicats! [book]

 Magicats! [book] Space-Time for Springers : This is just "my cat is sad" but wacky. A kitten convinced it will grow up to be human.  The Game of Rat and Dragon : This is some real extreme nonsense 1970s sci-fi. Things from the dark eat you if you travel through warp space, but human brains are too slow to react to the millisecond attacks, so they have to make psychic entanglement with strong hunter cats. There is vague romantic undertones to this.  The Cat from Hell: Oh, it's that stephen king story.  It's that thing from the tales from the darkside movie. The one king doesn't know how cats or mouths work.  Out Of Place: I don't remember anything about this story and have just reskimmed it right now and still can't tell you anything about it.  Schrödinger's Cat: I absolutely love Ursula K Leguin, but oof, this book just didn't work. It has a strong feeling of a metaphor based on some not quite right 1970s pop understanding of physics. Maybe it'
