At this point, anything having to do with Rick Riordan or his publishing imprint, Read Riordan, has become a reliable content cow for this blog since they just can’t seem to keep their mouths shut about cultural issues that are particularly dangerous for teens. In today’s episode of Rick Riordan/Disney being stupid, I’ll be providing... Continue Reading →
If you guys have read my blog post on why you should still try to go to church even though most of them suck, you will know that I have left several churches: The Church of the Holy Dollar, The Church of the (W)Holy Incompetent Pastors, and the Church of the Holy Dinosaur, and am...

Last year, political commentator, Matt Walsh, said in a video that anime is Satanic. While I think that he was mostly saying this in a joking manner, I can’t say that I don’t disagree with his stance on this massively popular genre. Sure, there are anime out there that aren’t horrible such as Avatar: The... Continue Reading →
When I was still a small child, I didn’t watch that much TV. My family had cable TV and a DVD player that we still use to this day. Roku hadn’t been invented just yet and we wouldn’t get a Roku system until I was about eight or nine (I’m only a teenager, but this... Continue Reading →
Even though I’ve talked about quite a few books on this blog, one of the series I haven’t talked much about is the dystopian series that really kicked the genre into full gear in the 2010s and that was The Hunger Games. Though I’ve talked about the prequel book that came out in 2020 and... Continue Reading →
Last year, Rick Riordan released two new books: The Sun and the Star, a gay romance that tore the Percy Jackson fandom in two as people argued over how bad it was, and The Chalice of the Gods, a book about the now college-age Percy Jackson and co. needing to find and return Ganymede’s lost...

I pick on Rings of Power a (perhaps) unfair amount on this blog. I mean, I’ve written numerous articles meticulously picking it apart as compared to the books, making fun of the showrunners and writers, and in general beating it a ton to make sure it’s extra dead. But today, I’m back to break down... Continue Reading →
I am not a fan of the Divergent trilogy. Not only is it essentially soft porn for teenagers, but the main character, Tris (short for Beatrice because she’s just soo edgy), has one of the worst mental health arcs I have ever read. Throughout the series (especially in book 2), she is a whiny, selfish... Continue Reading →
Let’s be honest, fight scenes are one of those things that can either make or break the believability of a story. If they’re really good, they have the audience rooting for the hero and fearing for their lives, or perhaps feeling as cocky as the hero that he’ll win because he’s the hero. On the...

As you guys know, I am not the type of person who likes love-triangles or many other lovey-dovey type tropes in books. However, I’m not completely heartless; I still enjoy a good love story now and again in a book when it’s not completely contrived. So let’s talk about how I think a romance should...
