Endless games

Recently games video essayist Adam Millard published a video about the recent innovative indie hit Before Your Eyes, in which he argues in favour of shorter games which present a more cohesive experience over longer endless games which offer far more content for your money but end up consuming all of your time in what …

A trans poem I wrote when I was drunk

Soo, I was drunk and ended up reading a bunch of really transphobic tweets. I ended up writing my first ever poem in a trance fuelled by Thatchers and anger Apparently being trans brings advantages Dominating women’s sport Whilst no trans woman has ever won a major sporting event And women’s sport brings far lower …

Paul Blart: Mall Cop 3, AKA Blart

(This was meant to come out at the end of October, but an essay for uni got in the way. Hope that that explains the intro) It's October, and I've put out approximately one thing this month. The sensible thing to do would to be a Halloween-themed post, but why the hell would I do …
