Music
Sia's Ableist, Poorly-Researched "Masterpiece"
I'd love more Autistic-centered movies. Just not like this one.
A badly-researched, poorly-executed sensory nightmare, Sia claimed "Music" was Autism-centered for Activist!Points, when it was actually full of racist&ableist stereotypes.
It wants us to cheer that the actual protagonist didn't institutionalize her Autistic sister.
(Not to mention the off-screen bullsh*t...)

My Coworker, Death
Death and I work very closely, but never together I see death in passing about once a week, but we've never actually met. For most people death is an obscure thought, something that rarely crosses the mind. For others, it is the prominent shadow that runs past our peripherals. Tonight, death worked over time. He was not a blur that ran past as I was turning away, but was a prominent shadow in the room I stood in and the floor beneath me. I didn't see him at first, he's easy to miss if you want to. My focus was on the muddy veins of my patient's right arm, attempting to finagle one last good one to draw from. It was never my forte, but when I did get it, I enjoyed watching the smooth red liquid collect into the tubes; the simple movement of it was relaxing to me in a sense. It was a reward, an earning for my blind pokes that eventually caught what I was looking for.

Paddington Bear series
This is an overall critique of the Paddington Bear series. All of these books are about a little British bear in a raincoat and yellow hat who loves marmalade. Paddington has many adventures throughout all the books. Each book has pencil sketches depicting what is going on in each of the chapters. In the beginning book Paddington arrives to live with his new family in New York and waiting at the train station and his adventures begin. Paddington Bear kind of reminds me of Winnie the Pooh in a way, but totally different too. This is a first in a series of critiques of this series.

Interesting take! I honestly don’t remember the film very well… I’d have to review it to fully digest your critique. Very interesting.
Ugh, that sounds really bad! Excellent review!
Thanks, Natasja. I think I'll just skip this one.
