We've all had periods like this- everything that needs to be done yesterday just keeps piling up and up, demanding your time and your energy and focus, and you only wish you could clone yourself to get it all done in time.
Especially when it so happens that you ...

kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Aug. 19, 2019
Years ago while living abroad, I heard an expat mom explain to her kids that it was good to try new foods just like in Green Eggs and Ham by Dr Seuss!

On Spoilers
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Aug. 17, 2019
So, full disclosure: I am spoiler immune.
I don't really care if I know how a story ends, or where the twist is. I might even enjoy it more as I anticipate it. I will watch the movie without issue and still enjoy it just as much.
Granted, when ...
What you love and what you hate about comics

Heavy Meta
Banes at 12:00AM, June 20, 2019
I'm not generally a fan of ‘spoofs’ or parodies. There are a few greats of course, like Young Frankenstein, but even the well-regarded ones like the Naked Gun series back in the day aren't ones I was ever crazy about. There are some funny jokes and good performances ...
