Not only are wildfires blazing across much of the West Coast, but the sky is red (though it was a sickly yellow here in Seattle … Continue reading My 2 Cents on When No One Is Watching
Project Super Nex – Chapter Eighteen – Bring Into The Light
I fade in and out of a silent, sprawling darkness. I fight off its attempts to ensnare my soul in its talons, carve it out of me, rip it apart.

My … Continue reading Project Super Nex – Chapter Eighteen – Bring Into The Light
My 2 Cents on Mr. Lemoncello and the Titanium Ticket
What’s new, readers? Before I get into the review, I want to take this moment to honor the phenomenal bravery and strength of Chadwick Boseman, who passed away last Friday after a private four-year battle with colon cancer. Needless to say, I’m devastated that we’ve lost the magnificent actor who embodied King T’Challa. On top … Continue reading My 2 Cents on Mr. Lemoncello and the Titanium Ticket
My 2 Cents on Interstellar
What’s new, readers? Travis Scott recently teased “The Plan,” his theme song for Christopher Nolan’s Tenet. Obviously Nolan is a filmmaking genius, but it helps that he’s a marketing wizard too—casting Harry Styles in Dunkirk to draw in One Direction fans, dropping the Tenet trailer on Fortnite to catch the attention of gamers, and now his collaboration with Scott. The … Continue reading My 2 Cents on Interstellar
Project Super Nex – Chapter Seventeen – In The Fractured Island
When I walk into the Citadelle through the main entrance, the atmosphere of the lobby is abuzz with a palpable tension, as if preceding a crucial event in the future.

Project Super Nex – Chapter Sixteen – Chaos and Death
It’s the 25th of Merto, ten past eight in the morning. The edges of a cumulus cloud burn white as it slips over one of the suns, while the second sun radiates razor blades that slice gashes through other approaching clouds. The grass and the trees and the lake of Gollinger Park flash and gleam … Continue reading Project Super Nex – Chapter Sixteen – Chaos and Death
My 2 Cents on Hamilton
What’s new, readers? Amazon recently pulled Washington Redskins merchandise from its website, following in the steps of Nike, Target, and Walmart. At the same time, FedEx, Bank of America, and PepsiCo are all leaning on the NFL to change the name. Oh, so now we’re realizing how awful it is to use a racial slur … Continue reading My 2 Cents on Hamilton

Recently, it was announced that Christopher Nolan’s Tenetand Disney’s live-action Mulan reboot have had their theatrical releases pushed back from July 17 and 24 to August 12 and 21, respectively.

My 2 Cents on Disney’s Artemis Fowl
What’s new, readers? I just want to give a huge shout-out to the Gen Z users of TikTok and the K-pop fans who bought up all those seats at Trump's Tulsa rally yesterday. This is fantastic—the young people banding together to make their political voices heard, bring about change, and stand against racism. And it's … Continue reading My 2 Cents on Disney’s Artemis Fowl
