Dear nerdies and gentlegeeks, A massive thank you to all those who donated last week after reading our post asking for help. My ultimate goal this year for Geeks are Sexy is to cut down on ads, removing some of the most annoying ones from the site. Thanks to Patreon, we might eventually be able […]
Dear readers, I’ve been running Geeks are Sexy for 18 years. I’ve launched the site in 2005 as a hobby project, but it quickly became much more than that.

Another year, another edition of Comiccon in the beautiful capital of the Province of Quebec, Quebec city! It was also the first time for as long as I can remember that no one was wearing a mask at a con. It was certainly a welcomed sight, especially when it comes to cosplayers who could finally […]
Digital artist Dan Leveille is at it again: He just used various AI technologies to create the full cast of a fake Legend of Zelda series on Netflix, and I couldn’t agree more with the cast! Tom Holland as Link, Emma Watson as Zelda, Idris Elba as Ganondorf, Danny Devite as Tingle, and more! Perfection! […]
