    Passionately Curious – An Interstaller Investigation

    March 19, 2015
    by Film, Passionately Curious, Paul Hofma, Reviews

      As you may well know by now, I’m a huge fan of the natural sciences. Usually, I use the space allotted to me here to try and explain some interesting bit of science in more simple terms, so that those of us who aren’t as big on the giant formulas and heavy textbooks can…

    Forever Alone, or Not, And Everybody Is Pretty Fucking Fine With That

    March 5, 2015
    by Tessel Rijneveldshoek, WB Column

    Do you have a favourite love story? You probably do, as we all are spoon-fed love stories from the moment we first saw the outside world. Romantic love, differing from other ‘kinds’ of love, such as platonic love, is a major theme in a great amount of songs, books and movies. Not to mention commercials,…
