Making History or Making Flops: Marvel vs. DC Cinematic Universe
Comic books movies have somehow accomplished the impossible: bringing nerds and mainstream audiences together under one glorious, unified sentiment, all for the sake of profit. The Marvel Cinematic Universe is a prime example of the utter impact these once “geeky” pieces of media have had on our society. Billions of dollars have been generated only…
The Issue With “Dieting”
Dieting to many is seen as a form of restraint and miserable abstinence. Rather than seeing it as a way to fix an unhealthy lifestyle and live a more fulfilling existence, society has instead manifested a “diet” into something much more sinister, more despicable, more susceptible to disdain and scrutiny.

Ironic or Sincere: How Offensive Memes Harm Our Generation

The 2018 Grinch is a Cinematic Masterpiece- And Here’s Why (‘Grinch’ Review)
As of late, I have found myself in a state deprived of motivation or a muse. What good is writing if there is no song in my heart to do so? It was not until last night, around six p.m., that I found a piece of art that moved me enough to write again. Today,…
Wind and Cake (Final Part)
The Contest: Child’s Play The rest of the kids came around 8:05. There were twenty kids including himself, ranging from ten to seventeen. All of them came and sat down on the chairs and assembled into their friend groups. (One of the groups made it a big fuss for all of them to sit down…
Big Epic Intro
Salutations, my nugs. I finally have a blog! I’ll be posting excerpts of my novel Accursed Red on here, along with short stories and little posts about my inner thoughts and opinions.
