About
Marielle Bokor is a photographer, writer, editor and recovering foodservice worker. She’s been on the arts and culture scene in Chicago for over 10 years, which officially makes her an old. As you’d suspect, she’s a big ol’ nerd, a Trekkie, and a foodie who loves to cook. As you might also suspect, she’s married to Antal Bokor, and the duo have been spotted doing journalism and retro games things anywhere they roam. Well versed in Weird Al, Buffy, and Star Trek. Can probably recall every single episode of Full House. Definitely lived in a Lisa Frank world full of action movies, rom-coms, great Mcdonald’s toys, Trapper Keepers, pogs, My Little Ponies and yo-yo balls. In love, in love with life.

DarkSwitch Preview: Frostpunk Meets Silent Hill in a Lush Fantasy Nightmare
We recently got to play a preview build of DarkSwitch that shows off a little bit more than the Steam demo does—and few colony sims have grabbed me quite like this. I probably haven’t been this invested in the genre since the original Frostpunk thrust me into a “what if” frozen world and tasked me with keeping its residents alive. But instead of a frozen wasteland, DarkSwitch drops you into a lush fantasy world where being on the ground means being subjected to a creeping fog that hides monsters

Consume Me is a Game That's Well Worth Waiting Six Years to Finish. Here's Why:
Stop me if you've heard this one:
You've got very specific health, academic, and social goals.
There are 24 hours in a day
You need money, but you also need to exercise, eat right, and do chores
By Wednesday, you're hopped up on caffeine and feeling good. You’re motivated, and you're gonna do the things.
On Friday, you find out you're short 12 dollars for your college application fees, have no energy at all, no laundry done, and can't go to the party.
I'm sorry, is this not sounding fun?

Kumail Nanjiani's "Night Thoughts" Special is a Fantastic Return To Form. (No, It's not a Muscle Joke)
Of all the muscled glow-ups there are to talk about, his was my favorite - because not only did it reflect a change we as fans knew was important to that scrawny kid, it was also for a Marvel movie.
Still, you can’t help but wonder, when someone gets super buff, has a hit film that wins multiple awards, and lives in LA, if they can still pull off that same colander headed, “house full of betas” vulnerability.
And the answer is a resounding yes, much to my absolute delight
