Nerdy Nummies have nearly 2 million views on this baking video after nearly a year of being online. Geek Native recommends it as a last minute Valentine’s Day save if you’re a baking superstar. This cake is a block of grass. As Rossana Pansino points out everything in Minecraft is square. Use chocolate for the […]

Chronicle City appoints “Grim” James Desborough
James Desborough has some experience with controversy. Geek Native interviewed Grim during a firestorm of protests. A petition had been set up to urge Mongoose Publishing to drop him from their roster for misogynistic views. The claim was denied, passions and tempers rose, arguments flooded into RPG forums and no one will thank me for […]

It’s hard to watch the trailer, consider the name and not conclude that Arise is a prequel. There’s no more debate as to whether Major Kusanagi looks the […]
Valentines: I don’t hate you
This rather awesome Portal turret is by the deviant artist Syntheticph. I think it catches the character of the friendly little turrets perfectly. They don’t hate you.
