Yesterday a scammer on the phone tried to scam us out of around 3k euro by some silly pretense and a bait of around 250 euro supposedly they wanted to deposit on behalf of the government. Now, of course this didn't fly with me or my mom, but it ...

Hair is a weird thing isn't it? It's just a bunch of thin filaments that stand out and hang from the body, most visibly from the head. Everyone is bald as an egg underneath this ...

The Competition Plot

As I'm writing this I'm counting down the hours to the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games 2024 which are taking place in Paris. The Olympics are the king of all sports competition, and even being able to participate requires for athletes to have been rigorously through very ...

I’ve found myself – as I’ve gotten older and encountered many different acquaintances and personal relations in my younger years – that I’ve become ...
Art, Communication, and Comics

Comics are one of the most effective forms of art.

Preachy Comics

Last night I had an interesting conversation with one of my favorite creators (you know who you are) about what makes a webcomic (or comic, or movie, or book, anything applies) preachy. Preachy as in trying to force an agenda, or ideology, or outlook down the audience's throat whether ...
