The Case for Social Media
Sometimes, social media can be demonised way more than it should be (I should know, I do it quite often). But honestly, it has been one of the greatest inventions after the internet.

Why James Stewart Will Always Be My Favorite Actor of His Time
I’ve decided to take on a new movie challenge: watch every single film James Stewart ever made. It’s not just about checking boxes on a filmography—it’s about spending time with the work of the man I consider the greatest actor of his era. I’ve loved Stewart for years, but I’ve realized I’ve never seen all of his films. That changes now. And this essay is my way of explaining why this journey matters so much to me.

Most Recognizable Houses
The Addams Family So you remember the original spooky, kooky family known as the Addams? The series became popular and aired from 1964 to 1966. There are Addams Family cartoons and more recent movies. These characters remain popular to this day. It all started with Gomez Addams played by John Astin and Carolyn Jones as Morticia. Basically the show was filmed at Desilu Studios, with their mansion depicted using a combination of set designs and exterior shots, often featuring a large, Gothic-style house.

The Hacker Who Only Speaks in Movie Quotes
The First Message It started with an email that shouldn’t have reached me. I don’t mean “wasn’t meant for me”—I mean, my email account didn’t even exist anymore. I’d deleted it six years ago after the June Breach, when a half-dozen hacker groups tore through government servers and private emails alike like piranhas through a bleeding river.

Cringy Moments From '90s TV Shows
Not every moment in life is worthy of applause; everyone has a moment when they look back and cringe about something they did or said. The same can be said of TV shows. Scenes like I Love Lucy’s pregnancy reveal and Ellen’s coming-out episode made people cringe but were ultimately hailed as groundbreaking moments.
