The Mystery of Dark
Dark is a complex German show produced by Netflix. It has many twists and turns but the biggest mystery is how Claudia's dog opened the doors. It's a tiny dog and those doors are hard to open. Who opened them for her? Did they open on their own? If that is so, then that opens new possibilities for the show. Are the doors sentient beings?

'Repo! The Genetic Opera'
Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not seen the movie! First of all, I cannot believe I am just now hearing about this movie. It came out in 2008 and I only just watched it last week. (Yes, 2008 was actually a decade ago. Yes, it is weird for everybody.) If you have spent any time on musical.ly recently, you might have seen people do one called "Zydrate Anatomy". (“Zydrate come in a little glass vial…..”) This is the movie it is from. Apparently, this movie is a cult classic right up there with The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I believe it. It features a thrilling soundtrack, gory visuals, and plot twists along the way. I have seriously never heard of it. I may just be completely clueless, it wouldn’t be the first time, but I can’t be the only one right? (Cue crickets in the background.) I did, however, recognize some of the actors/actresses.

From Chaos to Civilization
Egyptian mythology has many fascinating features. One of the most interesting of these features, and sometimes frustrating, which one really doesn’t find anywhere else, is that there is more than one creation story. This makes it difficult if one is trying to streamline a singularly coherent narrative of their stories.

The Day the Doctor Saved Me
"A king asks a shepherd's boy 'How many seconds are there in eternity?' The shepherd boy says, 'There's this mountain of pure diamond. It takes an hour to climb it, and an hour to go around it. Every hundred years a little bird comes. It sharpens its beak on the diamond mountain. When the entire mountain has been chiseled away, the first second of eternity will have passed.' Now, you must think that's a hell of a long time. Personally, I think that's a hell of a bird." -The Doctor

Galaxy Simulations Are at Last Matching Reality
Since the earliest days of computers, scientists have looked into their potential for simulating the cosmic processes that led to the creation of the near limitless amounts of galaxies in the observable universe. The shortcomings of previous computer technology limited their practical applications in this regard. However, thanks to the levels of processing power offered by modern computer hardware, along with refinement in algorithm scripting, simulations are reaching a point where they can begin to accurately replicate the mathematical values involved with the development of an individual galaxy. What’s more is that computer technology is advancing exponentially, meaning that progress is accelerating at a truly impressive rate.

The Invasion (Pt. 2)
“Everything starts from somewhere,” the two men said. “But tonight, you belong to us.” The voices were discerned as vital characters in the four guys' imaginations. The act's unbridled performance was taking the audience; it created a subliminal sense of authority that made them feel they weren't being had.
