Is anyone else’s feed on social media filled with sporting and exercising videos, or is that just me? Because it appears that everyday, when I open Instagram, I am hit with video after video that often record and document them exercising to get their “ideal body”. But something just appears insincere. Instead of actually focusing […]

Should There Be an Age Limit in Politics?
When considering all forms of government, there is one thing that boils down to that connects the different types of authority and government across the world: the age that holds power. Especially in American politics, many members of our Congress are often older than the people they govern. And while many people do not see this as […]

Tusk:WTF
I would consider myself a big horror movie fan. From physiological to the run-of-the-mill slasher, I can find something enjoyable in any subgenre of horror. And so I thought that the film, “Tusk” (2014) would be a fun watch for me and my sister to pass the time since I enjoy horror films. But… But […]
Can We Truly Separate The Art From The Artist?
In our current society, seemingly more and more public figures within the government are being exposed as being horrible people. This additionally extends to the entertainment field, specifically the musical industry.

Why We Like Star Wars

I No Longer Recognize America
Seemingly, it looks like we stray farther from normal society towards a distorted and unfamiliar civilization that is reminiscent of dystopian books. Novels such as “1984” (1949), “Fahrenheit 451” (1953), “Animal Farm” (1945), and “The Handmaid’s Tale” (1985) used to seem so extreme and exaggerated to the point that they could never, ever happen. Displaying […]
Why We Want to Belong
As a society, we often engage in sports for the wellness benefits of physical activity. Whether it’s softball, rugby, football, or gymnastics, sports offer significant health benefits for players engaging in such physical activity. While this fact holds merit and is a valid advantage in playing sports, I argue that we, as a society, additionally […]
Sports And Uniforms: Performing For the Male Gaze
In many aspects of our society, nothing is equal when it comes to gender and gender identity. And this depressing fact extends to sports as well. While I could discuss the inequity in the pay and wages gap between male and female athletes, another inequality plagues sports: uniforms. Take a look at the male uniforms […]
