Players 2024 Review: Best Valentine Gift
Look, now as you all know, Valentine's Day is going on and content related to it is also coming on OTTs, so while following up on the same thing, a movie was released on Netflix yesterday called Players, which I have watched completely. So whatever my experience has been, I will try to tell it without spoilers.

Making the Case for Seth Rollins vs The Rock at Wrestlemania 40
The current plans for WWE's Wrestlemania 40, April 6th and 7th, in Philadelphia, have a tag team match pitting Roman Reigns and Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, aka 'The Bloodline,' against Cody Rhodes and WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins in a tag team main event on night one and Cody for Roman in the main event of night 2 where, supposedly, Cody will 'Finish the story,' as the marketing has pushed it. This is not a bad pair of main events, but I have a better idea.

The Psychology Of Micromanaging
"Micromanagement" a term that evokes frustration and annoyance in the workplace, is a management style characterized by excessive control, close supervision, and an inclination to scrutinize every detail of an employee's work. Anyone who has worked with a micromanager will understand that these kinds of people have a tendency to be the worst during work.

Percy Jackson
The first season of the Disney+ Percy Jackson series is now over and I have many thoughts. Now these are thoughts completely untainted by nostalgia or even knowledge of the book. I wanted to wait until the end of the season to read the first book so there will be another article comparing the two. However I firmly believe that the series stands on its own and the complaints from book readers are nitpicky and irrelevant.
