Humanity or geek-manity? Humanity topics include pieces on the real-life lives of geek advocates and influencors.

When Reality Slides
Reality—however you define it (and most define it as a deeply “multi-layered onion,” to borrow from Jim Goad)—cannot be denied having its own hypnotic, imprisoning power. We know, ultimately, that everything is an illusion, a surface. A blink of an eye, the pull of a trigger, and all is forgotten—all erased. Instantly.

The Echo in the Red Dust: My Martian Garden and the Memories I Carried

Shona Black Fury: Unseen Cardbound Odyssey
Everybody talks about Shona: Black Fury the card game. Why? Because at its core lies something more than a set of rules or a glossy insert of illustrations. It offers a doorway into a lived, evolving story in which players become co-authors, strategists, and witnesses to a larger arc of courage, choice, and consequence. From a psychological perspective, the game taps into several deep and interlocking human needs: refuge, agency, belonging, and the thrill of shaping a narrative in real time. It invites us to experience a medieval world not merely as spectators but as active participants who decide who to trust, when to bend, and how to respond to looming darkness.

What If Comics Had Never Existed?
Imagining a world without comics is more than an exercise in cultural nostalgia; it is an opportunity to examine how a single form of expression shaped cognition, culture, and social life. Comics sit at the intersection of image and language, asking readers to perform mental leaps between static frames. Without that particular way of combining pictures and words, many familiar cultural practices and social tools would look different — sometimes subtly, sometimes radically.

Why Fearless by Stefano Labbia is a hit?
It has to be said, from the moment I heard about this project, about Fearless, I felt a deep, resonant connection to the heart of its story. It is a powerful thing when an artist steps up and says, "Here. Here is the truth about what it means to be human." And that, my friends, is exactly why this film, this work by Stefano Labbia, is set not just to be a success, but to become a true box office champion.
