Camp is a vaguely defined term, but certainly its hallmark is its joyous self-mockery. Camp can be naughty and it can be dangerous, but it is not mean. ANOTHER GAY MOVIE is just mean -- and petty and shallow; it has no right to use the word "gay" in any of its forms. Helpful...
I love long term storytelling and characters getting years long payoffs. This has never been more true than with my all-time favorite wrestler, Sami Zayn. This week, I analyze the brilliant years long story arc of Sami Zayn in WWE. A story of imposter syndrome, a miscast villain, and a...
The term “boys” is particularly significant. Boys were a group of people from the town who stuck together and formed some sort of group identity, perhaps like the boys in David Bowie’s “London Boys” and Thin Lizzy’s “The Boys are Back in Town”. It was at the Lincoln festival ...

I had prepared her a kittening box downstairs, but no, it wasn’t safe enough for her. (I have to say that the term “kittening” sounds ominous to me. “Beware the kittening!”) Anyway, Persephone turned out to be an excellent mother. She showed her babies – all boys – how ...
There is a slice of SL photography that focuses on the solitary figure with dramatic lighting seemingly emphasizing some unspoken drama or angst happening within. If you’ve taken any art history courses you are probably familiar with the term chiaroscuro, which refers to how light and dark are...
freedom and the rights of the individual is as unique as a water molecule, thus I think evaporation is a good term. But to turn water into vapor Mother Nature or a large amount of energy is required. The New World Order Is bringing it on. Let us all hope they do not have enough en...
