    As a Teen in the 21st Century

      Mother’s Note: my son, the Little Man, has been homeschooled since July. At the age of 15, he’s quite autonomous, and we have been working together on his curriculum to fulfill requirements and motivate him to learn. One of the things we have gone round and round with is writing essays. I maintain they…

  • Movie Review: Knives Out

    Movie Review: Knives Out

      The Jr. Mad Scientist sent me a message yesterday. “I’m thinking about renting Knives Out, would you want to watch it with me?”  I was delighted with the idea. We’re all in the same house, but she and I and the Little Man have mostly been giving one another space. Me, because sick, her…

    It’s Broken, and I’m done with it

      So I got into a bit of an argument with my son. He wants me to take him to the upcoming Star Wars movie, and I flat refuse to have anything to do with it. He was trying to tell me that it’s ok they are basically retreading the whole series, it’s how you…

  • Movie Review: Midway

    Movie Review: Midway

      Over the weekend my son dragged me to see a movie. I say this like it was hard for me to do, which isn’t actually true in this case. When he wanted to go see JoJo Rabbit I was deeply dubious (and I should write that review up soon, I suppose). Midway? I was…

  • Review: Captain Marvel

    Review: Captain Marvel

    I took the kids to see a movie last night. Normally I take them, drop them off, and come back later to get them. But this time they really wanted me to go, too. It’s a Marvel movie, which they know I appreciate, and as I told the Junior Mad Scientist later, the time approaches…

  • Geeky Kids Review Wonder Woman

    Geeky Kids Review Wonder Woman

    The Otaku Princess and Junior Mad Scientist have now seen Wonder Woman – twice, in fact, and the second time in 3D. They really wanted to do a review on my blog, and I’m glad, as I have not yet had a chance to see it – and may not, with the schedule around here.…

  • Ramblings and a Movie Review of Sorts

    Ramblings and a Movie Review of Sorts

    This is a post full of links for those who want to follow them, and also a post of ‘I’m alive!’ for those who were wondering. This last week was more than manageably busy. On the upside, my daughters have enjoyed their first (note: the Jr Mad Scientist informed me that for her, LibertyCon wasn’t…

  • Review: Suicide Squad

    Review: Suicide Squad

    I know, I know, I NEVER do movie reviews. Maybe once or twice before. I’m not really a flick chick. Being raised with no TV and only seeing a handful of movies on the big screen before adulthood will do that, I think. Anyway, I do like a good movie, but my idea of a…
