Broforce (PS4)

The Broforce is the most awesome side scrolling, action hero homage I have ever seen and played in my life! From the names, changed to avoid paying licenses, to the trophies everything in this game reeks of nostalgia. Spanning many decades of action heroes, the game includes 8 bit sprites of mainstream characters in all […]

Open Letter To The Men Who Are Fathers

This one goes out to the dads in my feed and beyond. The unsung heroes that don’t babysit their kids but rather rear them. The dudes that taugh their offspring how to surf, BBQ, skateboard, read comic books, play video games, do a mean braid, accept defeat gracefully, discipline, how to code love and respect […]

When Our Friends Had Kids Our Lives Changed Too

Never in my wildest dreams did I surmise that my friends having children would impact my life so greatly.

…Anger Leads to Hate, and Hate Leads to Suffering

I have met many angry people throughout my career and I still can’t understand why the male humans have so many issues controlling their temper.  We teach children to use their words and to cry but at some point the men stop being children and start to bottle all their feelings in.

The Show Must Go On…

The tragedy in Orlando’s Pulse Club reminded me of Freddie Mercury’s iconic performance during the video and Queen tours of the song The Show Must Go On.

Envy

Envy those who are loyal, Those who are strong, Those with an open mind and heart, Those who can make you forget you are broken. Envy those who have found love, Who have lost it, And who have found it more than once For they truly know what it means to live, to keep and […]
