If you’re like me (I guess you probably aren’t) you live in a country that’s pretty isolated and had a faaaairly snappy Covid response, resulting in hardly any COVID-19 cases at all. Living in such a chill place can easily lull you into a know-it-all mentality – which tends to raise its head when new…
This article was originally written for a 2014 issue of M2 magazine. However new numbers that have come out in the intervening 7 years show that things have not changed for the better. Waiting lists for victims wanting to get help for meth addictions are on waiting lists that are now sometimes 5 months long.…
Congratulations, you’ve just been trained to create beautiful things but are about to get paid to create ugly things. Here’s a list of things you should keep in mind while moving your meat sack into the future. I wrote this back in 2014 shortly after I left uni because it was somewhat of a shock…
Over the holidays, I was lucky enough to get my hands on the Oculus Quest 2, which is the perfect way to pacify teenage nephews and terrifying toddler nieces. The Facebook produced VR headset currently stands as the best in class for standalone VR use. It’s almost shockingly easy to pick up and play compared…
Very occasionally I find myself in the mood for a schlocky B-Grade action movie. A Shadow in the Cloud ticks all these boxes and adds a few more boxes just for fun, those being: creature feature & Thriller. You’ll see two sorts of reviews for this movie out there, those are “this movie is ridiculous!…
I was lucky enough to be invited to a screener of Earwig and the Witch, and tardily release this review weeks after it released to what few cinemas could operate in this Covid infested world. The movie is Studio Ghibli’s first 3D outing, and as such they had to put their best foot forward and…
I drafted this shit before new years, and that’s all come and gone now, but better late than never right? I have to say, in general 2020 was a great year for me. There was plenty of anxiety during the initial lockdowns that I may not have a job coming out the other end, but…
I have been waiting for Cyberpunk 2077 for 8 years now. When I started waiting for Cyberpunk 2077 the fanboys hyping it’s release were still damp from their own birth. I have been waiting for Cyberpunk 2077 since before there was any reason to believe it was even going to be any good. Witcher 3…
So you started Genshin Impact a couple weeks ago, and you had a real blast. You opened all the chests in the world and you were swimming in XP scrolls. You thought the fun would never end. You leveled every single one of the new characters you pulled with all those free primogems to 40.…
I was pretty eager to play Genshin Impact leading up to it’s launch after I saw an announcement maybe last year regarding it’s development. There was little to no mainstream coverage of it apart from Youtuber MMObytes who was happy to plug it at any given opportunity. For some reason MMO sites were the only…
