 The Covid-19 pandemic has had a dramatic and devastating effect on the British education system. Forced into our homes, under lock and key, we had little to do but sit with our own thoughts and somehow find the self-motivation to learn. It’s something that all British schoolchildren have had to endure by now, and it’s not to be laughed at, the lockdowns have had an unpredictably massive effect on our educational experience, and I don’t doubt I’m worse off for it. I felt the effects of the pandemic first-hand, as did my peers.  The first lockdown was a brutal and wholly unforgiving period for me, made to hop on Zoom once a day to endure a few hours of technical difficulties. With no motivation to continue, and no sight of light at the end of the tunnel, it was so easy for me to just disconnect and dissociate from the hellish monotony my life had become.  The second lockdown was slightly better, but it was still a vicious cycle of boredom, disappointment, and an...

Born  in Singapore in 1981, 'Tila Tequila' is an American TV Personality, and, get this, Bisexual! Her 2007 'bisexuality-themed' MTV show, (very creatively) entitled 'A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila' was MTV's  second highest-rated series premiere of that year. She's kind of an icon, and she'd be my new Gemma Collins had she not posted a photo of herself in a 'scantily clad SS uniform' in front of Auschwitz, and posted an article she'd written entitled 'Why I Sympathise with Hitler: Part I,' but we'll get to that another time. My main enquiry, of course, is to ask: why was there more than one part? Why wasn't one part enough, Tila?     One of the show's most chaotic images. So, the show, why we're all here. MTV's ' A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila' (2007) is both one of the most distressing and entertaining pieces of reality TV I have ever consumed - and I've been through two seasons of 'My Uno...

Hatred  isn't a feeling I'm often attracted to, but when reading the disgusting, transphobic,   hateful  rhetoric of J.K. Rowling, Helen Joyce, and Germaine Greer it's hard not to reflect a little of the hate they radiate.                                                   Germaine  Greer (kinda slaying.) I was watching a clip from the British TV show  Good Morning Britain , ironically this evening, in which the presenters (Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid) are discussing J.K. Rowling's (at the time) new, allegedly transphobic, tweet, which read: 'People who menstruate.' I'm sure there used to be a word foor those people. Somebody help me out. Wumben? Wimpund? Woodmud? Isn't that a jolly little thing to laugh about! J.K. has observed that the woke left is using accurate terminology for, literally, people who menstruate...

There  have been six dramatisations of Jeffery Dahmer's murders since 1993:   The Secret Life: Jeffery Dahmer  (1993),   Dahmer  (2002),   Raising Jeffery Dahmer  (2006)(2008),   The Jeffery Dahmer Files  (2008),   My Friend Dahmer  (2017), and finally Netflix's   Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffery Dahmer Story  (2022). They could be better at coming up with original titles, couldn't they? Or original concepts, come to think of it. It's almost like they're not adding anything, just recycling content to profit off death.                Evan Peters as 2022's Dahmer. True crime dominates the media market, polluting each corner of the internet with the depraved need for gory and gruesome details of  actual  crimes, involving real people. Where has this need come from? Is true crime as a genre ethical? How can true crime content normalise and even romanticise deviance?  On ...
