Well, it’s officially the very last day of November, 2022. December is but a stone’s throw into the future. In some parts of the world, it’s already here. December is always a time of reflection. We look back on the year…

Hey look, it’s Tuesday! That means we all survived Monday, and we might just make it to the Friday finish line. To be fair, I don’t really do Monday - Friday personally. I’m more of a “work every day of the…
I’ve been in a bit of a creative rut lately. Writer’s block is a terrible thing. I sit down to write and it’s as if a dump-truck has parked across the road I need to drive down, and whoever’s driving the…
Well we made it through the Thanksgiving day chaos and the subsequent madness that is Black Friday. Now it’s time for lazing about, watching movies, playing games and eating whatever leftovers remain. We’ve worked hard now it’s time to chill out…
I’m beat. Thanksgiving can really take it out of you. A day of chaos and food prep followed by over-eating and then lots and lots of clean-up—though, to be fair, I didn’t do most of that. I helped here and there…
It’s that time of year again. Tis the season! Time to spend your money on steeply discounted consumer goods to help push the economy back into the black. Yes, it’s almost our nation’s most fitting holiday: Black Friday. This year, Black…
Happy Thanksgiving, dearest Wordlers! This is perhaps my very favorite holiday of the year. It’s like Christmas without the gifts (and pressure and commercialism associated with gift-giving) though I love Christmas also, mainly for the same reasons I love Thanksgiving. I…
Another day, another Wordle. A rather relevant Wordle in my world, though we’ll get to that later—I don’t want to give it away just yet! You forget how busy this time of year can become. Family visits from out-of-town, or you…
Wordle! Time for a Wordle! Another one! And hey, why not? It’s almost winter. What better time to solve puzzles? December approaches and with it the end of fall, the coming of Christmas and...in the end, New Year’s Eve. What does…
The Walking Dead ended Sunday night with a finale that was about as good as we could have hoped for following a very, very lackluster eleventh season. The show has shuffled and stumbled its way to the finish line. The Commonwealth…
There’s a lot to unpack from tonight’s extra-long series finale of The Walking Dead. AMC’s zombie drama sendoff had some truly great moments, some tantalizing cameos and yet it still left me feeling a little hollow and letdown. I suppose it’s…
Wordle remains remarkably resilient as one of the most-played, most-talked about buzzy little games of 2022. I wonder what’s in store for 2023? Will Wordle retain its popularity or will some other viral sensation swoop in and steal its thunder? Getting…
Somehow, November is two-thirds of the way over already. Thanksgiving is rapidly approaching—with the Black Friday shopping chaos spilling over into the holiday and even the days leading up to it. I admit, I find the whole thing a bit grotesque,…
It’s finally happened: A Warzone 2 squad has blown up the map, instantly winning a special ‘Champion’s Domination’ victory in the process. Players were hoping a nuke would be added to the original game as far back as Verdansk. It’s been…
Another day, another Wordle. We’ve passed the halfway mark on November, and the final month of the year will be here before you know it. The way time passes—hurtling forward like some wild, reckless bullet—has me thinking too much about mortality,…
If you’re having the same issues I’m having with Modern Warfare II and Warzone 2 today, I guess we can console ourselves in an old saying: Misery loves company. Season 1 of Modern Warfare II and the launch of Warzone 2.0…
Updated 11/16/22 at 6:30pm ET. See update below. Warzone 2 is almost here, along with the start of Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare II Season 1, the addition of the new DMZ mode and a plethora of new content to dive…
Warzone 2 goes live today. What does that mean for its predecessor, the original 2020 Call Of Duty: Warzone? The answer is a bit complicated. What comes next happens in stages. According to Activision, here’s how it works: At approximately 8…
Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare II Season 1 is now live, a bit earlier than expected. This means that a whole bunch of new content is available to dig into, including a new Battle Pass, the revamped map Shoot House (which…
Tis the season for sicknesses it seems. My kids and I are in a rotating cycle of various colds and maladies that doesn’t appear to have an expiration date. Round and round we go, coughing and sneezing, feverish and wheezing. It’s…
Video game trailers often use questionable song choices. Or sometimes good songs that are weirdly integrated into the trailer—like The Smashing Pumpkins’ Bullet With Butterfly Wings in the Modern Warfare II / Warzone 2 trailer earlier this year. Great song, poor…
Warzone 2 is almost here, along with the start of Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare II Season 1, the addition of the new DMZ mode and a plethora of new content to dive into. The new free-to-play Call Of Duty Battle…
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas around these parts. Sunday evening it began snowing (again) here in the mountains of Arizona. It’s our second snowfall of November, and it’s quite lovely. But it feels less autumnal than ever. The…
As I watch these final episodes of The Walking Dead, I find myself thinking a lot about missed opportunities. I shouldn’t be thinking about this. I should be deeply invested in these characters and the conclusion to their stories. There are…
Andor continues to be the dark horse candidate for Best Disney-era Star Wars project—and I’m lumping movies and shows together here. The only reason I can’t say it’s better than The Mandalorian is that it feels like comparing apples to oranges.…
On November 13th, 1789, Benjamin Franklin wrote “Our new Constitution is now established, everything seems to promise it will be durable; but, in this world, nothing is certain except death and taxes.” The quotation comes from a letter Franklin penned to…
