Just think about this, whatever your child or your niece, nephew and some strangers kids are feeding their eyes with is likely attached to a clown or maybe a cynical conglomerate that knows social media and children fed algorithms will make them rich. Those little eyes looking for comfort, or simplistic entertainment and viral content are creating the future millionaires, perhaps billionaires given inflation. In the past television had dedicated time spots and channels for children, then the internet and the many devices gave us access to so much media that ignorance should be impossible....

Netflix put on its first boxing event, it’s content was plugged from Squid Games to Cobra Kai and Mike Tyson, 58 years of age, fought Jake Paul, 27 years of age. A battle of nostalgia versus the modern celebrity culture that has used boxing well as a promotion platform, and to show that the combat sports are trapped in an identity miasma. Despite MMA for the past three decades being touted as the ‘fastest growing sport’ and the UFC becoming a brand synonymous with the sport itself, the big money is still in boxing.

The 11th of November, specifically at 11AM is a sacred time that has taken on a religious observance among the victorious of World War One. A time to officially remember those who died in that war and the many others since, often with the observation of silence for a minute of more.

Harris was never going to win, she was terrible. She had been the VP under another terrible person, Biden. The election was more about them not winning and the Neocons being denied direct power again than it was about Trump, himself. He just happened to not be another politician. But Donald Trump, the celebrity tycoon who has been famous for over forty years. Remember how last time he became...

She could be anywhere from sixteen to her early twenties, a strewn mess of hair rests tangled above and over her face. A regular at the Seaford Shopping Centre, she watches families walk by, smiling at children and when no one is nearby she talks to herself. In the winter her bare feet purple from the cold and as summer approaches her skin showing bruises, cuts and debris that clings to her youth. Pacman, the man mountain who works security tells me that she is nice, keeps to herself and the mall management and local shop owners don’t mind her being inside. Though it’s not the weather that...
