Confessions from a Book Lover. Pt. 1
One of the first things people notice when they walk into my apartment are my beautiful bookshelves. They are right now filled to overflowing because everyone knows I love reading so everyone gives me more books during the holidays! I love it, but my fun reading has been taken over by my literary reading (more on that later) so in consequence, my books overflow the shelves. Most of these solid, wooden bookshelves were handmade by my dad, who is a woodworker by hobby. They are beautiful, tall structures that make me imagine every day of having a giant library of my own. At the moment, though, I live in a small apartment and must allow space in my living room to live and write.

Faster than a speeding bullet
After all it was a Gunn who brought down Kal-El. On to 40k. I have never really been a fan of DC Snyder and having such a sentiment I never really got to know Henry Cavill and his role as Superman, but one thing that is apparent is his love for the role. The Witcher was my first real exposure to Cavill. I've never read the series. I've never played the games... but he has. I see so many posts online on media of things he fought for to bring to his characters, characters he so clearly loves, characters he has described as his dream roles. He has a need and longing to be these characters and to stay close to source material because he is passionate about them. He brings his real-life passions, ie comics, games, reading, on to the big screen.

Animation - not just for kids
For ages, the stubborn statement that anything that is drawn (and by extension, animated) is for children. Even after titans like The Simpsons or South Park made their way into pop culture, the idea remained: animation was a somehow lesser medium for storytelling than live action. Even in this day and age, creators like Guillermo del Toro (who has a few animated passion projects himself, such as The Tales of Arcadia or the umpteenth new Pinocchio movie this year) spoke up against the discrimination of animation as a medium. And while del Toro's animated movies and series aren't neccesarelly ones I'd categorize as "adult animation", the fact remains: animation still has a long way to go.

All About X-box
Choppy waters The Xbox was quickly followed by release dates in Japan (February 22, 2002) and Europe (March 14, 2002), however neither market responded to the system with the same fervor as North America. Only 123,000 Xbox systems were sold in Japan in the first week after launch, confirming Microsoft's concern that the system would struggle to gain traction in the famously competitive international market.

I Never Thought I’d Be An Artistic Person. Top Story - December 2022.
Growing up as a sheltered, fearful, religiously-influenced child, I had no idea what my future was going to be like. I’ve felt fairly lost in life compared to many others around me. I was not a confident kid, young adult, or even a middle-aged man until recently.

What’s in the Box?
What is in the box, exactly? In no particular order, it could very well be the following: Is it Gwyneth Paltrow’s head? A fair soon to be mother, whose life was cut short from an overzealous and envious man whose sole purpose was to expose the seven deadly sins.
