Dark Hearts and Things

So it took me a little longer than I had hoped (read: 2 weeks) but the first ACTUAL "Adventures in Photography" video is up.
Watch it and let me know what you think.

     The bush was a tricky climb, there were lots of thorns and narrow paths, but the climb was still nearly as fast as climbing the thread.
     They reached the window, and Grayson was in luck, it was open. It was a tilt-type window, rather than one that needed to be lifted to open. The tilt opened at the top, which meant the jump from the bush would be a little tricky.
     Both mice made the jump with less effort than they though they would need. Now they were in. Next was the climb down, and Grayson once again was hoping he was right.
     Grayson peaked his head over the window ledge, and there it was a gaping hole in the side of the spider’s house.
     “We’re good,” he said to Sweetie. “Wish me luck,” he said as he began to climb down.

Video - How To Comic Con

Continuing with the discussion we stared a couple weeks ago about people who have never been to comic con before. Here is a video, the first of a small series, with some pointers.

Convention Life

     Reading through some Facebook group posts, I saw some people posting about how they have never been to a nerd convention before. This is 2017, nerd culture is at its peak (possibly even headed on the other side of the peak), and there are over 500 nerd conventions across the country. What are you people waiting for? Being into "nerdy" things has never been more en vogue, and never will it be like this again.

     Let's do a generalized walk-through of an average nerd convention.

Nerd Culture: A Saturation

     We are reaching critical mass with this influx of Nerd Culture into the pop mentality. What does that mean for our favorite characters?

Millenials in the Kitchen

"What is the thing you hate the most in the kitchen?"

     Saw this in my Instagram feed and was triggered into writing a thing...

13 Reasons...

    

     This piece has been stewing for about 2 weeks at this point... and possibly longer by the time I actually publish it. It needs to be written though.

     On March 31st 2017, Netflix released a series to stream called 13 Reasons Why about a group of teenagers dealing with the aftermath of one of their friend's suicide. The series is narrated by the disembodied voice of the dead girl, each episode being a side of a cassette tape (yeah... its a whole thing) she recorded explaining why her suicide was all of their faults.

     This is the place for the disclaimer. I, being a human being, have strong opinions about both the overt, obvious subject of this series, and the slightly more hidden, underlying issues that it refuses to acknowledge. Also, Spoiler Alert! I am going to talk about some details that will ruin the ending and other major plot points. If you haven't seen this show, and care about such things, then stop reading now. Otherwise, more after the jump...

back on!

 

Week in Nerdom has RETURNED triumphantly! Where should we go next week?
