  • Bad Romance: Is Belle in Love or Trauma Bonded?

    Disney’s Beauty and the Beast isn't some rosy romance novel set to a harp and a happily-ever-after. Oh no, honey. It's giving serious toxic situationship in a medieval mansion. See, while everyone’s ...

    Blood Trails & Divine Payback: The Cinderella You Were Never Told About

My Blog

My blog is not your average entertainment review—It may appear to be just another standard look  —analyzing movies, music, and books—but beneath the surface, it’s a focused examination of the subtle messaging woven into today’s media. Behind the polished visuals and catchy dialogue lies a deeper- darker agenda, quietly shaping beliefs, values, and behavior without our conscious awareness.

Because let’s be real: somewhere between the rise of dystopian dating shows and pop stars dressed like Greek goddesses preaching “freedom,” I started noticing a pattern. The stories we consume don’t just reflect culture—they install it. We’ve gone from “entertainment as escape” to “entertainment as indoctrination,” and my darling, that shift deserves more than a Rotten Tomatoes score.

My blog digs into those glossy, binge-worthy distractions and asks: why does that animated character not have a supportive nuclear family? Why is that love song lowkey encouraging narcissism? And did that book just casually rebrand ancient occultism as “self-care”? These aren’t just plot twists—they’re cultural nudges. It’s all part of the subtle scripting that turns worldviews into wardrobe choices.

That’s why this isn’t just any old entertainment review—it’s a sparkle-drenched spiritual audit.  And my blog is your backstage pass to the culture concert, where we pause the show and say, “Hold up, what did they just say?” Whether it’s a demonic cameo in a music video or a messianic complex baked into a children’s story, we’re not here to cancel—just to clarify. With scripture as our stylist and discernment as our diva, we’re peeling back the velvet curtain on all the narratives shaping the next generation.

So if you’ve ever finished a movie and felt just a little off, come hang out on my blog. Because the truth might not trend—but it’s always in season. 💄🍿📖
