Character Development
Sipping Whiskey and Ignoring The King James Version of The Bible
My shabby motel room's Gideon sits, gathering dust on its unopened spine. Yellowed by years of neglect, putrid from bearing witness to man's depravity to others, especially by its sacred truth-bearers. My stomach turns contemplating the hypocrisy perpetrated upon humanity by those perverting its stories for their own glory.

The Calvin Stickers
Let the grifters grift. It’s their only gift. You work hard on your craft. You spend hours on your craft. Just for someone to drop a link. Or worse, they drop something unrelated. It stinks. Maybe Bill Watterson was right, when he chose to ignore the sticker grifters. We’ll see.

Me Before You
Me Before You deserves credit for evoking a visceral reaction from me. The book is ableist, even ignoring the ending. The story didn't dive deeply enough into any real trauma (such as Lou's sexual assault) and treated Will like a vehicle for overcoming Lou's issues. It's a tone deaf romance.

Ethereal Symphony
In this captivating artwork, luminous strokes dance gracefully, forming a breathtaking play of light. Yet, while composition echoes brilliance, an opportunity for deeper narrative connection arises. By intertwining thematic elements, this symphony could evoke profound emotions, ensuring lasting resonance in the observer's heart.

A Critique of The Ex
Visually appealing, however, the content swiftly proves mediocre at best. Accommodating a substantial lack of originality, with predictable plot twists, awful character development, and a final act that will leave even the most easily pleased with a sour taste in their mouths. A complete unadulterated disappointment. Avoid at all costs.
