My Top 5 Geeky Shirts
Wearing geeky shirts are a way to express who I am. In my early 20s, I started to wear them and by the time I turned 30, I had over two dozen shirts. Many people ask me why I wear them and the reasons are obvious: they fit and I love them. I plan to continue wearing geeky shirts forever. On social media, I use #geekyshirtfriday to post which shirt I'll be wearing every Friday. One week it would be a Nintendo shirt and the following week, it would be a Power Rangers shirt. It all depends on the type of mood I'm in. I'm going to share my five best geeky shirts. Hope you enjoy this wonderful list.

Aren't You 'Con'vinced? Why 'Con Air' Is The Greatest '90s Action Film
The flowing long hair of #NicolasCage, Steve Buscemi creepily clutching a doll, and Danny Trejo as the ruthless rapist. What sounds like a gritty HBO's True Detective Season 3 is in fact 1997's Con Air. Just two years after America started the Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System, Simon West's film about an aircraft full of convicted criminals is almost unrivalled in its brilliance as a '90s action flick. Alongside the likes of Cliffhanger, True Lies, and of course Cage's stint in Face/Off, Con Air is smothered in a generous helping of Blockbuster Video cheese.

BEING AN INTROVERT is the Flashy New Outfit You Want to Show Off Out on the Town
Fashion experts predict that the number one standout look this season is being an introvert. You've probably noticed the hordes of articles with subjects like "how people don't understand introverts" and "how to treat introverts" and "why introverts are better than those filthy annoying and mundane extroverts that are so 2000s."

Exposing the KK
Exposing the KK... Let’s be honest, the Kardashians and Jenners are no strangers to the appropriation of any of the cultures of the world. It seems that their favorite location of cultural appropriation appears to be sourced in Black Culture. From their "boxer braids" aka corn-rows, full lips via injections, dreadlocks, Bantu knots, and a long list of wrongfully credited "trends" and their lifeless imagination they may finally get exposed for their undeserved fame.

The Best Ways to Introduce Kids to Superheroes
One of my absolute favorite things about being a parent is sharing the things I love the most with my kids. A perfect example was getting to hear my kids gasp in shock when Darth Vader reveals that big family secret to Luke in The Empire Strikes Back. Nothing like the magic of re-experiencing the best science fiction, fantasy, and comics with someone who’s seeing or reading it for the first time. Case in point: superheroes. I love hearing my six-year-old geek out about what Spider-Man would do in a given situation, so I’m definitely planning on fanning the flame of fandom with some comic books to keep the superhero love going. Rekindle your fascination with the great men and women of the superhero universes with these toys, costumes, books, and more this Christmas or any time of the year.

Adding Height In Cosplay
Height. It’s one of those things you can’t really do much about in cosplay, isn’t it? You can turn into a purple alien, a lizard person, or a cyborg through the use of makeup, you can get your werewolf or elf on with prosthetics, and you can drive people up the wall with your Waluigi vocal imitation, but you can’t get from 5'6 to 5'11 without throwing on a pair of six-inch heels and going as the stripper version of your character.
