Greek mythology is full of sex, and the Odyssey is no exception.

> "The Odyssey features his usual combination of grandiosity and superficiality". A pretty succinct summation of Nolan as a filmmaker.

It's a pity that Apple neglects its creative apps. I've been working on a video project using Motion recently, and while not as capable as After Effects, it's pretty serviceable an…

Very impressive. How are you managing to produce such a clean model without artifacts?

India, China and Japan are the largest markets for quality whole leaf tea. Tea bags contain fannings and dust, the lowest quality byproducts of tea production. Try a single estate …

People still use tea bags even though what they contain is a byproduct of tea production and barely counts as tea.

Capitalism subsumes all culture, even counter culture, destroys its essence and commodifies it.
