Bizarre Ideas in Sci-Fi

May 12th, 2023

I’ve been watching some videos from Sci-Fi Odyssey over on YouTube recently, not really because I find them to be great, but because I’ve been bored. That’s not to say that they’re bad, because certainly, they’re not, I just find his take on things to be “interesting”. I say it like that because I simply do not agree with some of his overarching ideas. He seems to think, again, from my limited exposure, that science fiction must, by necessity, be hard, meaning it’s got to be scientifically plausible to be worthwhile.

That’s not how it works, though.

The Tale of a Book, Week 3

December 10th, 2021

Just finished off week three and I’m really impressed by how it’s going.  Everything is flowing and I could just keep writing through the end if I let myself. I just don’t have that much time.

So here’s where I’m at right now and what my goals are for the last week of work. Let me know if you have any questions, I’ll try to help.

Review What You Saw!

February 22nd, 2021

I watch a fair number of YouTube movie reviewers and this seems to be an issue with a lot of them. They will watch a movie and then review the movie they wished they’d seen, not the movie they actually sat through. They had expectations that we not what the director intended. Then they complain that the product wasn’t up to what they wished for. That’s not how this works, sorry. So today, I’m going to talk about that, along with look at the latest place I’ve seen this happen, Willy’s Wonderland.
