Why Australians Sound Like They’re Always Asking a Question
Why Australians Sound Like They’re Always Asking a Question If you've ever spoken to an Australian and found yourself wondering if they were subtly quizzing you about everything, you're not alone. That melodic rise at the end of their sentences—as though every statement is a casual inquiry—has confused (and amused) English speakers around the world for decades.

"Love, Death & Robots 2024: Where Carnal Desires Meet Mechanical Nightmares"
On this planet, water is worth more than life itself. Only the truly wealthy can indulge in the luxury of an ice-cold Coke, while water thieves are locked inside glass boxes, left to bake under the scorching sun until their bodies are drained of every last drop. The parched sand becomes their final resting place.

The Unrivaled Art in Chainsaw Man
Chainsaw Man? How good can anything with that name be? That sounds stupid. And yeah, it is. But it’s also a masterpiece, and an absolute master class in absurdist fiction.

When Real Madrid and Arsenal faced each other: A dream football match
When Real Madrid and Arsenal faced each other: A dream football match When I first saw a football match as a child, I did not know the names of the players, nor the difference between the teams. There was just a ball, 22 people and immense passion. But with time, I understood one thing some teams make a home in the heart. For me, those teams were Real Madrid and Arsenal.

Hitchhiking to the Arctic (Norway)
I was in southern Sweden when I decided to turn north. I had no itinerary, just a fierce yearning in my heart to see the Northern Lights. Not from a bus tour, not through the foggy pane of a hotel window, but with my own breath visible in the air, my boots in the snow, and nothing but silence between me and the sky.

It's a unified cry for peace and justice to come to Gaza, where still innocent lives go astray within a disastrous human crisis.

Black Mirror's New Season Premiere: As Familiar as it is Outrageous. Content Warning.
Black Mirror is not the kind of show I like to binge. It's better in small doses for a few reasons. Some episodes get really heavy and at times hit a bit too close to home. I also like taking it slow because the stories are so rich and full of meaning. It takes a while to let them marinate. Clearly they are meant to do more than just entertain.
