So, after a tireless search yesterday, I decided to watch this documentary miniseries. It was very disturbing in multiple ways.
For one, it made me glad I never paid for any R. Kelly songs. The only song I have on my iPod was provided to me, courtesy of Limewire. Secondly, it made me feel incredibly terrible for laughing at all of the skits and jokes surrounding R. Kelly, like the Chappelle Show and South Park.
This series features multiple survivors, and the families of women still trapped in this strange sex cult. That dude is sick and likes children. I have to say Vince Staples' rant that was featured in the last ep was my favorite part, because it was purely the truth.
As always, it's interesting to think about that if the victims weren't the race that they are, maybe something would have been done sooner. It really makes you sick to your stomach.

The only thing I didn't like is that some of the episodes repeated portions of the interviews again.

Kudos

Unneeded information at the beginning of each chapter (0 more)

Ok I am a bit bias when it comes to this book. There are people who probably would like this I am not one. It wasn't the story I wanted him to write and I'm a bit bitter about it because this is supposedly the last Mithgar story. It is an unnecessary story and could have been an ok to good short story. There is more of the piecemeal to this story than needs be, as we see how each race and kingdom reacts to the High King being overthrown and the villains are a bit comical and in case of Nunde gross (necromancers are disgusting). There is little character development instead it builds upon the history and geography of Mithgar at the beginning of each chapter. Although this is interesting and does pertain to things in the upcoming chapter it is also distracting and feels very detached. Truthfully the writing tone doesn't remind me of McKiernan.

Kudos

Border Control, hmm.

141. Desierto. Nice, random movie on Netflix time and it paid off. It's a short one, but freakin intense man! It's all about a group of Mexicans crossing the border and they meet an American that disagrees with that idea. Its Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who already kinda looks like an asshole, is a real American man, truck, dog, gun, and happens to like murdering people crossing into the states. Meanwhile one of those illegal crossings is happening right now... A group who is crossing the desert on foot because their car breaks down, are pounding across the sand, group gets seperated, one gets ahead...which is good news for the ones way behind, because they get to watch all their travelling companions picked off one by one. The group in the back lead by Gael Garcia Bernal, gets a running, but Morgans dog smells those fuckers out and the race is on. It was really fuckin good, like I said intense and right to the point. I say, watch.
