[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7zFwdzBfVg] The Walking Dead: Still (4×12) Synopsis: A Beth and Daryl-centric episode that looks into Daryl’s mysterious past. Rating: ★★★☆☆ Let me just preface this episode with the acknowledgement that I hated it. No disrespect to Emily Kinney, but I just don’t like Beth. Her voiceovers are jarring, she’s like Lori 2.0 […]

Kickstarter Round-Up: Clothing, Costumes, and… Cecil Baldwin?
In case you missed it, this past week Kickstarter was hacked. They put out a press release strongly urging users to change their passwords, but insist that only two accounts showed any kind of fraudulent activity. No credit card data was accessed, but it’s a good idea to keep an […]
