That Aquaman Movie

March 7, 2024March 1, 2024 Medic 0 Comments aquaman, dc, movie, random, review

Every week or so, I visit my dad and we watch a movie together. He’s got pretty much everything, Netflix, Amazon Prime, all sorts of streaming services, so there’s plenty of choices to be had. We were going to watch Aquaman 2, but I hadn’t seen Aquaman 1 yet, so we decided to watch that first. And it was an alright movie. I mean, as far as super hero movies go, it was fine. A nice origin story, some changes of heart, the whole becoming a more devoted super hero thing and unlocking more powers, it’s pretty standard. The story… [Continue Reading]

For obvious reasons, this image will be as bad as it gets. But seriously, if you're put off by a badly textured Argonian butt, I'm amazed you got this far.

On Writing Sexy Things

March 6, 2024February 28, 2024 Medic 0 Comments not actually sexy at all, random, sexy, writing

This article is technically not safe for work. But honestly I’m struggling to write actual articles as of late, so you’re getting the random rambles from the depths of my mind. If you’re uncomfortable with mentions of sex and nudity, then you can safely ignore this article. However, I won’t be getting into anything too graphic, nor will there be any sex scenes, this article is just about writing about vaguely sexy things and stepping out of one’s comfort zone. N0w, normally, I’m not that interested in sexy things. In fact, it took me years to even be sexually attracted… [Continue Reading]

The 21 Year Old Bohrok-Kal

March 1, 2024February 23, 2024 Medic 0 Comments bionicle, bohrok, bohrok-kal

I have a lot of Bionicle parts, but I weirdly don’t have that many Bionicle sets. Well, I kinda do, since I inherited all of my brother’s Bionicle sets. When we went our separate ways and brother moved in with his (genuinely charming) girlfriend, he didn’t have room for both his comic collection and his Bionicle collection. So I inherited it, aside from his absolute favourites. However, the Bionicle sets I own, they are almost ALL custom MOCs, things I’ve built myself. In fact, some of those MOCs are ancient – my Arkay MOC is at least 10 years old… [Continue Reading]

My Favourite Twitch Streamers

February 28, 2024February 21, 2024 Medic 0 Comments streaming, twitch

In my desperate bid to write articles, I am not just scraping the bottom of the barrel, I have clawed my way through it and am on my way to digging towards the center of the earth. But, well, I’ve had a lot of Twitch playing in the background while I work, so I feel like this is a good topic to write about. Plus, I’ve mentioned Youtubers that I follow before, Twitch is no different. Anyway, here are some of my favourite Twitch streamers. The assorted friends and stuff Before I go into streamers who I don’t know but… [Continue Reading]

On Struggling To Write Articles Again

February 23, 2024February 16, 2024 Medic 0 Comments ramble, rant

Lately, it’s been a real struggle to write articles for the Daily SPUF. Normally we have 10 articles ready to go, but because I’ve been busy with real life, that number has dropped down to around 5, and I really need to start writing articles again. The problem is, I’ve kinda just… written so much lately, that doing Daily SPUF articles is hard. And no wonder. I just went and checked my stats on my profile, and I have written over 2750 articles on my own. That is a LOT of articles. A minimum of 1.3 million words, assuming every… [Continue Reading]

A Phoviverse MOC Article – Part 2

February 18, 2024February 10, 2024 Medic 0 Comments bionicle, phoviverse

In yesterday’s article, I went through the two teams of beings that survived the death of the old MK4 Phoviverse. The Phoviverse is my long-running fictional universe, filled with a myriad of different beings which I swear are not all related to Bohrok. It just so happens that Allmaker Kinisis, the in-fiction creator of the universe, had an obsession with the species her son was taken from, and reused a lot of species blueprints to create the races of her universe. She also shared these blueprints with her fellow Life Goddesses, who ended up making very similar beings. Anyway, here… [Continue Reading]

A Phoviverse MOC Article – Part 1

February 17, 2024February 10, 2024 Medic 0 Comments bionicle, moc, phoviverse

The thing that got me into writing was Bionicle. The first forum I ever signed up for was BZPower, the original big Bionicle forum, and from there, I joined multiple writing forums (being an admin for one for years), eventually getting into writing for the Daily SPUF and also writing my own fiction, the Phoviverse. Now, I’ve mentioned both the Phoviverse and my original long-term Bionicle fan fiction, the Bohrok-Kal’s Ramblings, before, but, well, I also have a lot of, well, actual Bionicles. When I finally got my own apartment and was no longer sharing with my brother, I inherited… [Continue Reading]

A Valentines Day Article

February 14, 2024February 8, 2024 Medic 0 Comments ramble, rant

I’ve never liked Valentines Day. In fact, despite me being in my thirties, I’ve only actually only properly celebrated it once with a partner. And, frankly, that whole relationship was a waste of my time, dedication and money. I wouldn’t call myself jilted or anything, but I’ve never had a good real-life relationship, and a day about love and partnership has always pissed me off. In previous articles discussing Valentines Day, I’ve also called it an annoyingly commercialized day, with a vast amount of pressure put on people to spend money on their loved ones. Often more on men than… [Continue Reading]

Fuck Jetpack

February 10, 2024February 1, 2024 Medic 1 Comment jetpack, wordpress

When I was new to WordPress, there was this handy plugin called Jetpack. Made by a company called Automattic, it added a ton of useful features, all for free. These included things like extra widgets, an easy contact form you could add to your website, a vastly detailed stat system and an easy way to post blog posts to other websites. Sure, Jetpack constantly tried to sell you its premium version, after all, that’s what most free plugins do to try and make money, but the features it offered were great, and the price for the premium stuff wasn’t too… [Continue Reading]

On Writing About Shapeshifters

February 2, 2024January 24, 2024 Medic 0 Comments ramble, shapeshifting

Shapeshifting is probably one of the most overpowered super powers. You can be pretty much anyone, do pretty much anything and also access a wide array of other powers, based on how that shapeshifting works. That being said, I don’t see shapeshifting much in video games. Off the top of my head, I can’t think of any popular games where you play as some kind of shapeshifter. The one exception for this is various classes in games like World of Warcraft, but even then, the shapeshifting is limited. Despite that, there is one place where I’ve seen lots of shapeshifting,… [Continue Reading]
