Iconic and sometimes notorious business wars between key thought leaders and competitors in multiple categories, genres, and topics. From Nintendo and Sega to Penthouse and Playboy.
The Decay of Public Discourse
Today, over 100 Reddit communities have banned links to Twitter (sorry, X) because ELON MUSK IS A NAZI. If you’ve been living under a rock and haven’t heard, Elon Musk gave a speech and at the end did some slightly awkward nerd-ish attempt at a wave/salute that kind-of-maybe looks a little bit too much like a Hitler salute. Yes, it didn’t look great. But now the internet and the news have all gone mad, running article after article about “Did Elon do a NAZI SALUTE?”

Medusa's Symbolism: A Reflection on Gender Roles
Despite being one of Greek mythology's most infamous monsters, Medusa's story has always been unique. As one of the fiercest predators in the genre, she might have survived the storms of time. However, the story can be interpreted through a feminist lens. Medusa was more of the prey than the predator. As a follower of the goddess Athena, Medusa made a vow to live chastely, but when Poseidon sexually assaulted her in the temple, that plan fell apart. To put it briefly, the goddess of war did not find the Greek god Poseidon's seduction of a lovely young woman in Athena's temple endearing. Another version tells a darker story in which the god of the sea pursues the innocent woman violently against her will. She rushes across Athens, desperate to get away from her conqueror.

Pip Quirkwright and the Symphony of the Windstorm
In the heart of Oddsville, a village where peculiarities were as common as dandelions in spring, lived a curious inventor named Pip Quirkwright. Pip, with wild, unkempt hair that often seemed to have a life of its own, and a wardrobe filled with mismatched fabrics and forgotten trinkets, was a walking contradiction. Though everyone in Oddsville had some quirk, whether it was the baker who could make pastries sing or the librarian who could rearrange books by simply thinking about it, Pip's oddity was the most eccentric of all—creating gadgets from ordinary objects, transforming them into strange, sometimes nonsensical contraptions.
