Hufflepuffs Are Adorable as Fuck
Since writing my article, The Day I Discovered I Was A Slytherin, I felt the urge to write an article about the other three houses: Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Gryffindor. I'm a Slytherin and I'm proud of it, but I think the other three houses are just as amazing. I like all of the four Hogwarts Houses because I think they can represent some amazing abilities and traits. By default, you have to be an amazing person if you've got your letter of acceptance from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Google Translate With Shakespeare
William Shakespeare is one of the very few writers in the world that has remained relevant even centuries after his death. His famous work has been adapted many times and his use of words have been constantly dissected by generations of pupils and teachers. He is considered one of the great writers of all time. Of course, nowadays this can be easily disputed as everybody has their own opinion. Despite this, his work is still referenced and adapted even to this day. So, a random thought came to me after watching some Google Translate sing music videos: what if Shakespeare's work went through the ever-so-famous Google Translate treatment?

Poetry's Mysterious Ways
Poetry has been around for centuries. A lot of questions come to mind with poetry, especially to those who don't write poetry. Even people like myself who actively write poetry find ourselves questioning what poetry is and what it's purpose is. There's a huge interest in how it's made, where the ideas come from, and the hidden tricks beneath each technique used, if there is any. Many are frustrated, as the response is always the same: I don't know.

Top Picks from Pokévault
Pokévault is one of the biggest stores for second-hand merchandise from Japan. It's got one of the best reputations and all products sold can be guaranteed to have 100% top quality. With over hundreds of items in their catalogue, and a catalogue that is always changing, I thought I could compile a list of some of the best products on Pokévault at the moment as well with the most desirable and things that we want to have. I've not heard one bad thing about this store.

Digimon Rumble Arena
Digimon started off as virtual pet toys in the early 1990's and has been converted to many various other formats ever since including the famous anime, movies, video games and the not so well-known books. The popularity of the new series, Digimon Adventure Tri has breathed new life into old characters and brought in new merchandise for the franchise, proving very much that it is not dead.

Suicide Squad
Suicide Squad was one of the most talked about and hyped about films in 2016. With superhero franchises and crossovers on the rise in cinema, it's very easy to see why. The film is about a team of dangerously crazy villains completing missions under the direction of Amanda Walker in exchange for reduced prison sentences and privileges. Before we get fully started on this review, I feel that I should say that I have not read any of the Suicide Squad comics, but I do know some of the characters from DC Comics. I saw it twice in the cinema and seen it several times with friends at home.

The Importance of Art Commissions
There is millions of artwork available on the internet; sadly there is a plethora of artwork that's been stolen or insufficient credit or permission has been used. Stolen fan work being sold at conventions is still something that I sadly see a lot of the time. There are lots of talented artists out there trying to make a living out of something they are passionate about, and they should be allowed to do that. Commissions are a big source of income for a lot of artists.

The Gate - BjörkTop Story - September 2017
The Icelandic songstress is back with a light fluffy persona and a brand new song called The Gate. Her new album Utopia is scheduled to be released in November. Am I excited? You bet I am. Björk is one of the most innovative and artistic singers around and has been fusing the lines of abstract art and music since before I was born.
