Nicole: 1, Joshua: 0

Yesterday Joshua and I released the results of the World of Warcraft competition. If for some reason your  computer wasn’t playing our podcast (there really isn’t any other reason you wouldn’t have listened to it), you would have found out I was the victor. It was a very close race the entire way through, and [...]

Why Nicole’s End Will be Swift and Humiliating

This ain’t a scene, it’s an arms race
