One of the most important jobs in New Zealand is up for grabs
Before I launch into another fascinating lecture, I do need to point out that I realise that only about three people will be interested in the aforementioned lecture today. I get it, seriously, I do. Not everybody is perfect, but we can still try. To the three people who fit into the intersection of a…
Tour of the Solar System: Pluto
To mark the 60th anniversary of Batman premiering on ABC, and bringing Gotham’s live-action citizens into our living rooms, I thought I would celebrate by launching another Tour of the Solar System entry. Sorry, what’s that? Did you just ask what the Batman TV show and the Solar System have in common? Absolutely nothing, of…
To control another country, or not to control another country, that is the question
As fans of this highly informative blog will undoubtedly know, I’m somewhat of a fan of William Shakespeare’s work. I’ve talked about his work before on this beloved blog, but one day I will discuss the villains, because, in my humble opinion, there’s nothing greater than a Shakespearean villain. Now, you could be sitting on…

Free Comic Book Day vs Comics Giveaway Day
2025 is drawing to a close, not just in this reality where we live on a globe,1 but also on this informative, insightful, and popular blog. That being the case, I wanted to share some news that, in my candid opinion, is a quirky mix of fascination and pettiness. Since the word in the title…
Is there anything better than the Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace? Hold my beer.
I had originally planned to write about something else this week, but after learning about a particular piece of news, the die was cast, and the decision was no longer mine to make. Just in case you’re a very unlucky person and have not been following the news, there has been a recent development in…
Geographical Misconceptions: Part Three
I seem to be on a roll of adding to the diverse range of my previous blog posts. In 2021, I published the first Geographical Misconceptions blog post, and two years later, I published the second. Since it appears it takes me two years to create one of these, which is the same rate at…
