You will often hear people say, “write what you know,” or “write from experience.” But if that were true, what could be said about the existence of fantasy, science fiction, surrealism, and similar genres?

A powerful film produces personal resonance. It has emotional poignancy, cultural pertinence, and perhaps provokes one intellectually.

Just when I thought that Alex couldn’t make worse life choices, she throws shit to the fan.

Life is complicated. Especially if you are not sure how many times you've already lived.

The latest episode includes a special guest from Wisconsin. Although, not a particularly good one.

Girlpool’s voices complex issues of gender, sexuality, and marginalization in a beautifully resonant way that commands important self-reflection.

Episode three of American Horror Story: Hotel is all about that blood price: what would one do for love? Well, blood seems to be the response, now doesn’t it?

The truths of the world are as interesting and as strange as fiction.

Adventure Time juxtaposes the Adorable with the Destructive
