    Long Live Irony

    February 21, 2020
    by Sebastian Alcocer

    I should be able to come up with something. Anything. I’ve been thinking of subjects but the only things that come to mind are loose words that have no meaning by themselves, flashing by like [enter something poetic and pretentious]. I’ll just try to give you a sneak peek into the writing I am used…

    Top 5 Video Game Soundtracks

    February 14, 2020
    by Chaakir Benzina

    Long before I took to tidying up my jumbled thoughts on video games to write them into existence, music was my bread and butter. All the work I’ve put in exploring the vast and deep oceans of fiction and nonfiction was preceded by years of self (mis)education on the fruits of songwriting, becoming so obsessed…

In my article In Defense of Anarchism, I…

    Will History Repeat Itself? Looking Back at the 1920s to Predict What’s in Store in the 2020s

    February 4, 2020
    by politics, Ruby Fitzgerald

    The 1920s, glamorised and celebrated in books and films, seems like an anomaly in history. With such vivid iconography, it’s a struggle to remember anything about the decade other than flappers, Gatsby, art deco, and jazz. It feels entirely separate from the rest of the early twentieth century and its two world wars. But, saying…
