If you’re unfamiliar with films like The Blair With Project, and Trollhunter, or haven’t even heard of them, then I’m at a loss to explain how you got here.

“Fairy Tales, as they were originally written, weren’t the saccharine offal children who don’t belong to Mrs. LFM and me, or a few notable Friends, grew (or are growing) up with. They were intended to convey valuable life lessons to the offspring of people who lived a lot closer to reality than most in the […]

“We have everything to fear including fear itself, and the bad news hasn’t yet hit, I don’t think. You’re running into a losing struggle. No one has ever beaten these odds. I’ve looked up ahead, or if you prefer, down the road. I know what’s coming. I know no one beats these odds, and it’s […]

“If you’ve ever lost someone who mattered, regardless of their species, you have experienced grief. If you haven’t so far, then you eventually will, because all relationships in Nature come with an expiry date. Neither good nor evil, it’s the way of things, and grief is the process Nature has given to some of her […]

Artificial intelligence is a field that offers opportunities both for wondrous good and ultimate evil, for as man strives as a god to create sentience in his own image, much of known history and current reality is at risk of sacrifice upon the altar of wishful thinking. That being said, tonight’s Dark Sentiment was brought […]

“Spirit Messengers. The term conjures images of animals sent by a higher power to offer guidance toward the right Path. A Google search will turn up reams of pages identifying the characteristics of each creature, along with its “meaning” should it choose to make itself seen to you under a variety of circumstances. “As with […]

“Through every life, lived fully or not, taken note of or not, cycles repeat within and without our mortal vessels. Tiny samples of starting and ending match the macroscopic in their ebs and flows. Rises and falls. Wins and losses. Loves and hates. Embarkations and abandonments. Just as a spell of ascendant convergence may arise […]
