The Werewolf at Dusk
Permit us, if you will, to make an observation. We often try to distract ourselves with illusions—of a past or present buried beneath the rubble of diversion and self-deception. Delusion: we all live in little rings of it, orbiting nothing. But then something bubbles to the surface, reminding us—plainly, brutally—of our own personal extinction. Nullification by circumstance. Erasure by time. This is our journey, and it is not one of earthly tread.

Cellulose vs. Regular Pads for Evaporative Coolers: What’s the Difference?. AI-Generated.
Evaporative coolers, commonly known as swamp coolers, rely on cooling pads to absorb water and facilitate the evaporation process that cools the air. The two most common types of cooling pads are cellulose pads (often called rigid media pads) and regular pads (typically made from aspen wood shavings). Each type has distinct characteristics that affect performance, efficiency, maintenance, and cost. In this article, we’ll break down the key differences between cellulose and regular pads to help you choose the best option for your evaporative cooler.

My Space Dark Horse Presents
Dark Horse Presents was an anthology comic that debuted in 1986, the august year of my wayward youth. It was almost a decade before the internet took off, but the internet iteration Myspace Dark Horse Presents, so named because it tapped potential comics talent from the denizens of the now-defunct social media platform, extenuated the indie comics anthology to the cyber realm. The series, six volumes long, eventually pulled in big-name talents such as Mike "Hellboy" Mignola, but still managed to retain the status of being a vehicle to showcase new talent.

Thank You, Chrollo
Spoilers for the Hunter x Hunter anime and manga! — Chrollo Lucilfer Chrollo is one of the most beloved villains in Hunter x Hunter, and for good reason. He is a very mysterious and interesting character in how tricky he can be to understand, so I want to preface this analysis by saying that all of the following is just my opinion and my personal interpretation of Chrollo’s character—unlike my Makima analysis, which is all fact. (She told me herself.)

The First Film to Win an Oscar: Wings (1927)
Before the glitz of the red carpet, before Meryl Streep collected her first golden statue, and before movies spoke a single word—there was Wings. In a time when cinema was still discovering its voice, one film soared above the rest and etched its name into history. Wings (1927) wasn’t just the first Best Picture winner at the Academy Awards—it was a breathtaking war epic that proved film could be more than entertainment. It could be art.

With Superman: Legacy (2025) a box office and critical success, even the most ardent Snyder supporters must confront a troublesome question:

Are The MCU Young Avengers Being Set Up To Battle Aubrey Plaza's Death?
Fans have been eagerly awaiting the debut of a Young Avengers team in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and now the pieces seem to be coming together. The team, likely to be an amalgamation of the Young Avengers and Champions line ups, currently looks set to be headed up by Kamala Khan, aka Ms. Marvel. Kamala was last seen attempting to recruit Kate Bishop in the final scene of The Marvels, and an Easter Egg in Daredevil: Born Again has her Father, Yusuf, reference her as visiting San Francisco, possibly to recruit Cassie Lang, the daughter of Ant-Man. Riri Williams, America Chavez, and Billy Maximoff/William Kaplan (Wiccan) will most likely be part of the team as well, along with Tommy Maximoff/Speed, after his rumoured return in Vision Quest.

I'm Hoping Fantastic Four: First Steps Will Have a Bad Ending
