There are plenty of reasons to believe that we are at the end of something. I have watched plenty of the rapture videos out there, both before and after, trying to find some practical reason as to why the chosen ones were not chosen, and they can no longer work or even commute after losing their jobs and cars. There is the growing sense that the world is losing its collective sanity - for what it was worth - with wars, protests, authoritarian governments that seem to ignore what the people want (especially if they put them in power). Things are crumbling. As the poet said, The centre cannot hold. We are doomed!

The Future Was and Wasn't. Top Story - September 2025.
Shatter is the first comic created entirely using a computer. It premiered around 1987 or 1988, and I remember standing in what used to be the Waldenbooks at the old North Park Mall in Marion, looking at the rough, digitized artwork with a strange, childish mixture of wonder and disgust. It captured the eye. But what could a computer possibly bring to the world of comic art, I wondered. A child operates from childish prejudices. Forty years on, the rough, low-res (yet still incredibly gripping) artwork by Mike Saenz, done on an old IBM* that utilized those humongous punch cards, still carries a wallop.

Google Turns 27th
On September 27, 2024, the tech giant we interact with daily celebrates a monumental milestone: Google's 27th birthday. What began as a research project named "Backrub" by two Ph.D. students in a Stanford dorm room has since exploded into a verb, a global empire, and an indispensable layer of modern life. This Google birthday isn't just a corporate anniversary; it's a moment to reflect on how a single search engine fundamentally altered the course of human knowledge, communication, and commerce.

Jimmy Kimmel's Return
The world of late-night television rarely experiences genuine suspense, but for a few days in [Month, Year], the question on everyone's mind was: "Is Jimmy Kimmel back on the air?" The speculation surrounding Jimmy Kimmel's return followed a highly publicized standoff between the host, Disney/ABC, and the Sinclair Broadcast Group. The resolution of this conflict wasn't just about a popular host's reinstatement; it was a microcosm of the powerful forces shaping modern media.

James Van Der Beek
For a generation, the name James Van Der Beek is inextricably linked with one character: Dawson Leery from the iconic teen drama Dawson's Creek. His face, filled with earnest ambition and teenage angst, became a defining image of late-90s television. But to reduce his career to that single role is to miss the fascinating journey of an actor who has consciously and creatively navigated the challenging path from teen idol to respected character actor.

Jimmy Kimmel Is Back!
I am so glad ABC has reversed its decision to suspend Jimmy Kimmel's late night show. I understand that it was probably more of a business decision for them because in less than a week after Kimmel's suspension, ABC/Disney lost billions of dollars in stock sell-off (I sold my DIS shares right away) and Disney+ and Hulu subscription cancellations. It truly became a movement, and the very obvious loss of business must have outweighed the benefits of the potential merger approval by FCC.

Reform UK, Nigel Farage, and the Battle Over ILR
In the turbulent landscape of British politics, few figures are as influential or divisive as Nigel Farage. As the honorary president and driving force behind Reform UK, he has once again thrust immigration to the forefront of the national conversation. A key point of contention in this debate is the future of policies like Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR), a status that Reform UK has pledged to overhaul as part of its core platform. For migrants and political observers alike, understanding this proposed shift is critical.
