NASA has unleashed a campaign that allows you to etch your name onto a Jupiter-bound microchip, joining a magnificent poem written by none other than the U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón. This is your chance to become part of a message in a bottle that will traverse billions of miles, aboard NASA’s Europa Clipper mission to Jupiter’s captivating moon, Europa.
Dear reader, to say much more than the title of this story ruins the surprise. The horrific gut punch at the center of this odd tale. So, I must ask you to trust me on this one.
Even after watching the first three episodes, The Bureau of Magical Things feels like a show that doesn’t exist. A hypothetical series a nerdy character might watch in the background of a scene. I’ve heard no one discuss The Bureau of Magical Things, reference it, or allude to it anywhere online in critic circles, yet it has all the trappings of a show that people make video essays about.
If you’ve read a lot of my Magic content, you’ll notice I’ve made Mythic a few times. I did it again this May. And, considering I would’ve wanted a guide on how to do it when I first started playing MTGA, I figured I’d make one.
It’s a long-ago established idea in science fiction that we might live in some computer program. And thinking about it can lead down so many roads of thought. What does that mean about our lives, about our personalities? Who are we outside the simulation?
The Cellar Letters is the first podcast I’m reviewing that I didn’t like. Its first few episodes have many problems that ejected me from the narrative.

Be Careful What You Wish Fur may have the worst pun of a title yet, but it proves that the Disney Chills books continue to improve as stories. The societal commentary from the first book combines with the physical threats of the second and even uses the focused structure of the third. The result is so close to YA fare, like Rules for Vanishing or Horrid, that where it doesn’t reach that height feels even more disappointing, but where it works is almost triumphant.
Words have so much power, dear reader. Apple. Car. Battery. Simply by reading that, you likely pictured some or all those objects.
Writers of the Future is a yearly anthology featuring the latest in great speculative fiction.
The Mario Bros. Movie Does Not Try Anything New The Super Mario Bros. Movie, hereafter simply called The Mario Bros. Movie, was inevitable. In the media landscape that brought us Sonic the Hedgehog and gave The Matrix another sequel, the most famous video game character besides Pac-Man was bound to get the silver screen treatment…
In human history, the things people regularly drink have profoundly affected the course of civilization.
To call Circle an intense film is to undersell it. Utilizing almost only a single location, this death game story touches upon politics, human nature, mercy, and bigotry. It uses a very simple premise and plays it straight and is one of the best-paced films I’ve seen in a long time.
