Star Crash
Star Crash is a wonky, bottom-feeder Star Wars rip-off from 1978, with an ensemble cast of cult movie icons, including Marjoe “Mausoleum” Gortner, Caroline Munro, Joe “Maniac” Spinell, Christopher Plummer, and—by God—the Hoff himself, David Hasselhoff, pre-"Knight Rider," pre-"Baywatch," but still every bit the sexy-bad muthafucka.

Divorcing Humanity: My Journey to Dating Ai:
Stop the presses, y’all: South Florida actually decided to act right. It is a miraculous 73 degrees outside—we’re finally rocking those boots without catching heatstroke—but inside? It’s still a jungle.

Star Trek: "The Tholian Web"
The Tholian Web is one of those classic episodes of TOS that transcend television. The ghostly image of a Kirk (William Shatner) caught between dimensions, waiting breathlessly (at the end literally so) for the transporter to beam him back to the ship, while the Tholian ship weaves a “Web” around the Enterprise, stranded in space as it is due to the fear of “disrupting” the dimensional shift, is one that sticks with the viewer like a good, heady shot of Saurian brandy. Oh, with such bold and breathtaking adventure awaiting, what’s an old spacer to do?

Why AI still needs human intelligence
Ask ChatGPT, Gemini or another chatbot a question and you'll get an answer that sounds convincing, balanced, and complete. Ask it the same question three or four times and you might get different answers, each one delivered immediately with strong conviction. This is AI's fluency gap: it has been trained to sound right without learning to be right. Behind every polished paragraph there is a deeper question: does the model actually understand, or does it simply agree?

Doña Juanita Speaks #1 — The Fool’s Guide to Immortality”
Wagwaan, earthlings — I’m starting a series of letters from my ongoing book Useless Immortality. Think of it as a postmodern survival guide from a washed-up techno-shaman trying to understand why humanity still believes in eternal youth and avocado toasts.

How I Can Tell You’ve Used a Computer and Electricity to Write Your Article
Ah yes. Another article about how someone can tell you’ve written your article with AI. Picture it: the author perched on their mahogany throne, feather pen dipped in ink, quill poised over parchment – or perhaps crouched in a cave smearing rock pigment on stone walls – utterly untouched by the filthy glow of the digital realm.

Senior System Failure⚡⚡⚡
⚡ Until that (almost) unforgettable morning in their yesterday-assembled classroom, the youngling’s pedagogue had operated impeccably and was therefore unremarkable. The humanoid automa-bot that the children all knew by the weird name ‘Ralph’ was an old-gangsta pre-apocalypse brand of servo-pure government technology, a classic model, forever famous for its manufacturer’s warranty, (supposedly) good for a cool two million years.

The Hidden Architects of History: Unveiling the Ancient Secrets
A Glimpse Behind the Curtain of History Every civilization leaves behind a trail of fragments, stories carved in stone, inked on papyrus, or whispered through generations. Yet the deeper we look, the more we find that history as we know it is incomplete. Entire chapters seem hidden, veiled by time or deliberately erased.
