Corto Maltese - Under the Sign of Capricorn
Corto Maltese is a lanky, hard-as-nails comic strip antihero, a sailor born from a gypsy mother and a father who, also, was a sailor. Corto grew up in the Jewish quarter in Cordoba, Spain, where, discovering he had no lifeline on his palm, he carved one for himself, like a jagged, bloody, and mysterious road into the tender flesh that would see so many black-and-white comic strip adventures.

We Regret to Inform You: The Rejection Podcast
Another podcast review? Well, there are two very good reasons for me to write a review about this particular podcast: 1. A few relatives came up to visit Montréal – with me as an option, I think – this weekend. I showed them around the old part of the city (Vieux-Port – Old Port), noting the stores, cafes, bars, and history of this preserved cultural area. At a terrasse, we sat down for a drink and I learned a lot about my cousins and their lives. One works in advertising; another is running her own business. One other has just bought a house. And I had to sit there, nursing my one espresso, while wondering about how I was going to pay my rent for next month. Of course, none of my concerns were voiced, but they were all over my thoughts as I took them to an indoor market and noted how they were haggling over jewelry in one small boutique. What was I doing with my life?

These K-Dramas Will Ruin Other TV Shows for You (In the Best Way). AI-Generated.
Let’s get real for a second: once you fall in love with a great K-Drama, everything else starts to feel… kinda flat. Your usual go-to series? Suddenly too slow. That “popular” Western romance? Lacking heart. The latest crime thriller? Predictable.

The Mind-Control Fungus That Turns Ants Into Zombies. AI-Generated.
Deep in the tropical jungles of South America and Southeast Asia, there is a microscopic puppet master turning innocent ants into mindless zombies. This is not a science fiction movie — it's a real phenomenon caused by a parasitic fungus known as Ophiocordyceps unilateralis.

"Beyond the Gates" Week 18 Review
So I'm late with this recap, but this time, it's only partially my fault. Most of the blame is on CBS, and as much as I want to say why this early in the story, I'll wait a bit for that, and all I'll say for now is that your wait won't be as long as CBS' for sure. But anyway, it was the final full week in June (June 23-27), the Cup was awarded, the NBA Champions were crowned, and, but Beyond the Gates remained hot.

My Review of "Jurassic World: Rebirth"
Jurassic World: Rebirth is the latest dinosaur movie to come from a franchise that will never die. I had to see it in theatres because a movie like this warrants watching in the theatres. It's the summer and I wanted to see a big monster movie and that's pretty much what I got with this movie. I'm not going to say it's the best one out there but why do we expect everything to be continuously better? Not all franchises are created equally.

Think You've Seen Good TV? These K-Dramas Say Otherwise!. AI-Generated.
You’ve binge-watched the biggest Western hits. You’ve seen all the plot twists, survived love triangles, and sat through cliffhangers that left you yelling at your screen. But let us ask you—have you really seen good TV?

Jane Austen Wrecked My Life
I was going to write something serious about the fluff of rom-coms. I made notes about Jane Austen’s heroines and the tropes of cinematic romantic comedy. It was going to be clever and oh, so dull.

Crypto Horizons: Navigating the Waves & Glimpsing the Future of Digital Assets
it's a living, breathing creature fueled in equal parts by bleeding-edge technology, rampant speculation, tribal community loyalty, and global economic shockwaves. Trading it is less like investing in the traditional sense and more like whitewater rafting – thrilling, terrifying, and requiring constant attention.
