Let’s talk about something no one put on their vision board in January: curated nostalgia. It’s not just a vibe. It’s a survival mechanism. And it might just be the most underrated form of self-care we’ve got. You see, I’ve been time-traveling lately—not via DeLorean, but through carefully […]
Does karma have a deadline? It’s a question I keep circling back to like that leftover Tupperware you keep meaning to clean out but instead just open, smell, and regret. I believe in karma. I do. Firmly. Deeply. With Bronx-born intensity. I believe what you put out there […]
So I spotted a tiny rash the other day and my first thought wasn’t “maybe I brushed against a bush” or “I should change my detergent.” No. My brain, in its glorious hypochondriac majesty, screamed MEASLES. Not mild skin irritation, not a rogue mosquito bite—nope, full-on outbreak, cue […]
Sometimes, all you want at the end of a long day is a good whodunnit with just enough twists to make you furrow your brow and wonder if you could have pulled off the perfect murder (you know, hypothetically… with plausible deniability). So along came The Residence on […]
It happened again. After months of avoiding the chilly shadows, I’ve plunged right back into the abyss of Nordic Noir. This time, it’s The Åre Murders, and I’m hooked—again. Every six months or so, I find myself back in the icy depths of Scandinavia, vicariously solving brutal murders […]
“I thought of making myself a beautiful wooden marionette. It must be wonderful—one that can dance, fence, and turn somersaults.” Now that is a quote that gets my mind spinning. I recently heard it while watching an episode of Grimm, and it struck me with its whimsical, slightly […]
I recently stumbled upon an article, courtesy of a TikTok deep dive (don’t judge), that featured an interview with Friends star Matt LeBlanc. Now, while Joey Tribbiani might have been all about pizza and asking “How you doin’?”, it turns out real-life Matt is all about…doing nothing. And […]
Write about your first computer. It’s Super Bowl Sunday, and while the game is entertaining, what I really look forward to are the commercials. Though, I must admit, the excitement isn’t what it used to be. Remember that Apple commercial—the one that became a seismic cultural moment? I […]
There’s something about the ridiculousness of lies that sometimes makes them amusing—especially when they spiral into the absurd. Case in point: Tony’s memorable line to Abby on NCIS, “You don’t bowl with nuns. I should have seen that coming.” I laughed, not just because it’s outlandish, but because […]
In what ways do you communicate online? Rewatching Younger recently, I came across an episode from 2016 where a character warned that we might be in the midst of a “technopanic.” Back then, it sounded a bit alarmist, like the show was trying to play with the growing […]
