Eminem Grew A Beard
Over the last week, we've sat in silence watching as the internet has blown up over what they are calling Eminem's "New Look." I'm not staying silent any longer. This is the classic case of why Celebrities like Eminem live so much in isolation. These people put themselves out there and share their exceptional talents with the world providing a sense of Entertainment. Yet, the general population takes this for granted. They act as if because these people share that small portion of their lives. That they have the right to get involved in these people's personal lives and judge even the smallest decisions. It's a beard!!If you, or a man in your life, decided to grow a beard, would there be this much hoopla?No. We have that freedom, people like Eminem don't, and this past week is proof of that. I've bitten my tongue reading comments, like:

Tabletop Games
Whenever we get together, Slightly Twisted Games tries to make time to play a board or card game. We love games, and after we play a new game for the first time we discuss both the things we enjoy and dislike about it. This has shaped our game design philosophy, and we work to incorporate our philosophy into each game we make.

Bond: The Living Daylights At 30
Once upon a time, the James Bond film series was in trouble. Despite financial success, the series seemed to have sputtered somewhat with the last two Roger Moore Bond outings. When Moore confirmed he was leaving the role in December 1985, fans of the nearly 25-year-old franchise may have been left wondering what would happen to the series next. The answer came in the summer of 1987 when not only a new Bond film called The Living Daylights appeared but a new Bond as well. His name? Dalton. Timothy Dalton. The result was to be the beginning of a new era for the series.

7 Downloaded Apps I Can't Live Without
1. Facebook Some people may argue that Facebook is dead, but practically everyone I know still uses it, at least to check it. Social media websites are quick to be adapted by the younger generations, but even my parents use Facebook, making it a hub for my cross-generation communication. It is my first choice in making a uniting group page and the business I work for remains active on it. Dead? Facebook is still my number one social network.

NieR: Automata Review
NieR: Automata, released February 2017, is a Japanese RPG emotional roller coaster. While it might draw you in with sex appeal, it will keep you with a gripping storyline (which consists of three unique, linear routes and a total of 26 endings), enchanting soundtrack, and existential commentary.

The Connection Between The Matrix and Westworld
The Matrix trilogy is a groundbreaking series that first came out almost two decades ago and still remains relevant in popular culture today. From satirical portrayals in movies and cartoons to the use of the "Red Pill" as a commonly used term denoting the awakening to reality.But for all of its popularity, there is a misconception about a pretty important plot device that has not been widely addressed. In this article, I attempt to highlight a new perspective on what humans really do for the machines and how it relates to Westworld.
