Warp Stream Myth Explored

by Lazarus on Sep 16, 2017
Sci-Fi & Fantasy

Slipping in and out of warp three times rapidly in a single minute, it was said, could create an intense emotional response in humans. There was a whole lot of scientific "evidence" to support the theory but no one had really debunked this particular myth. Lyn and Jon were prepared to do just that. As freelance galactic reporters they often researched and de...

Reviews & Essays

Okay, gentlemen, I just want to share with you some common myths about women that really get under my skin. I'm not saying that these statements don't apply to some women out there (I'm sure they do), but they are not a blanket statement, encompassing all women, and I just want to set the record straight, once and for all. I'm tired of society misunderstandi...

Logos, Psyche & the Karmic Bridge

by Toxico on Sep 16, 2017
Reviews & Essays

Logos and psyche appear to be two sides of a coin, two warring factions within the documented realm of history. Whether legend or myth, truth or fable, parable or documentary, times present or times past, there has always been a perceived conflict between logos and psyche.

NonHuman

It was cold down this deep. The slow rush of temperate water from the vents of the volcanoes did not do anything to improve the frigid temperatures all the way down here. Warm water rose, and the caverns at these depths did not retain the warm water very long. Melusine hurried along the old corridor, shivering in the chill. There it was, just a narrow fiss...

Capable of not only literally tearing a person limb from limb but extremely hard to kill as well unless one knew how. Silver and wooden stakes being the best options. Garlic was just a bullcrap myth created by Hollywood. Contrary to popular belief, vampire...
