So, I just finished watching the first episode of The Penguin on Max, starring Colin Farrell, and let me just say… who knew Oswald Cobblepot would emerge as the antihero we’re oddly rooting for? Sure, he’s a slimy, murderous, and manipulative gangster, but in this new series, Farrell’s […]
What’s your all-time favorite album? As a GenXer, I’m no stranger to the beloved concept of the album—a cohesive, artistic expression that could turn an ordinary afternoon into an emotional journey. But here’s the thing: even though I grew up with albums, there’s a part of me that […]
Well, what a week! You’d think that amidst the political circus, the only wacky stories out there would involve a podium and a scandal, but lo and behold, we’ve got some non-political oddities, too. One story that caught my attention? Well, let’s just say it involves a funeral, […]
Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life. I’ve been ghosting people long before the word was a thing. Back then, we didn’t call it “ghosting,” it was more like a silent exit—less spooky, more socially acceptable (or so I told myself). But there’s an […]

Are you holding a grudge? About? I’ll admit it—I’ve held a grudge or two in my life. I’m human. And let’s be honest, holding a grudge can feel oddly satisfying at first. It’s like wrapping yourself in a cozy blanket of righteous anger, protecting yourself from the cold […]
