  • The big idea: what would culture look like without nightlife?

    Live music venues, clubs and bars feed creativity and drive social change. But they’re increasingly in dangerA few weeks ago, I decided to walk from London Bridge, up through Soho, to Marylebone, to catch a train home to the West Midlands. It was late-ish on a Friday afternoon, early spring was in the air, and I had time to kill. I was expecting the familiar mass of people finishing work, spilling out of pubs, standing around on corners, but the city streets were dead. It felt more like an early...

  • It's Not About Revealing Clothes: How 'Stellar Blade' Became a Front in the Culture War

    I've been reporting on the drama unfolding around the South Korean video game from Shift Up studios called "Stellar Blade." The only reason there's drama behind it is because radical leftists are furious that the game sports a beautiful female protagonist with sex appeal.
