The Chic Side of Geek: Best States in the U.S. To Fit In [ARTICLE]
To paraphrase the incomparable Wil Wheaton, being a nerd is to be absolutely passionate about something and not care if anyone makes fun of you for it because that thing you love is so important to you. Whether your passion is clothes, comics, makeup, Doctor Who, or Magic the Gathering, we impassioned souls are nerds by definition. Yeah, we may be better dressed and more stylish than some stereotypical nerds on TV or in film, but who amongst us couldn’t have an impassioned discussion with personalities like those we see reflected in the CBS’ show, The Big Bang Theory?

The Elder Scrolls Online [VIDEO GAME REVIEW]
The Elder Scrolls is sailing into uncharted waters with its first try at not only a multiplayer title but a full blown MMORPG. These are some huge shoes to fill with the most recent Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim being heralded as among the best RPGs of all time. I am happy to report that Zenimax has delivered not only a solid MMO but also a worthy chapter in the saga of the Elder Scrolls.

Silas & Ami Season 2 Premiere [VIDEO]
Season 2 opens with a bang as Ami Kabar is stranded in Canada (not unlike the protagonist from the new Kevin Smith film, Tusk) and is forced to do the show via Canadian vidfeed–which is always in danger of moose damage! The shocking Silas McBane hits her right between the eyes with the question of tattoos, how people without tattoos behave towards those with tattoos, and many other hard questions!

V for VERITAS: The Truth In A Lie [EDITORIAL]
I’m known as Veronika Gypsy, but everyone just calls me, V. Your editor and I know one another because we both do photography with alternative models and we tend to hear some really amazing stories. As we got to talking, he suggested that I write for you because, with a little ingenuity, I can tell stories that others cannot. We decided that I would use a pseudonym and that I would change many of the details about my life so that no one would know who I was. By using a public lie like this, I could tell the truth about some amazing women I’ve worked with without risking anyone’s identity…

Breaking The Law: Cory Doctorow, Deric Lostutter, and ‘Little Brother’ [ARTICLE]
If you don’t know Cory Doctorow’s name, don’t feel bad. I didn’t a month ago, either. That was, until I read, “Ready Player One,” for our review here at DGM. In the dystopian novel, the author mentions TWO freedom fighters that are still fighting the good fight for users rights in the future: Wil Wheaton and Cory Doctorow. I’m hugely familiar with Wheaton and respect his opinions enough that I’ve tried out a number of games based on his…
