Most Wanted: Robert William Fisher
"If you leave me, I'll kill you," Many have used this threat to keep a significant other in a relationship for centuries. Some may have even followed through on the threat after a breakup. And there are others who may not have acted in the heat of the moment but put together a plan, and began to methodically ensure the death of a loved one(s).

Florida Man Posted Revenge Porn Out of Spite
Social media has changed the way communication happens, for better or worse. It has also changed the way people seek to get revenge on those who have wronged them. Or at least those who are perceived as having wronged them.

Not So Pleasant Murder Plot
Hiring a hitman is not as easy as it seems. Time after time, people who want to have someone killed off are caught by the police more often than not. It would stand to reason that it would detour people from doing it, but that is not the case.

Who's in Charge?
"Who run the world?" My friends always answer Queen Bey in unison, "Ed!" It's not true, I do not want to run the world. That's what the lackeys are for. And I am not helping my argument here, but seriously, there's a reason lackeys exist and that reason is to do my bidding. Same thing when it comes to work.

Valerie Bertinelli Is My Mortal Enemy
Like Florine Mark before her, Valerie Bertinelli is on my list. It's an exclusive list of two people—well, it used to be three but Kesha has redeemed herself in my eyes. Also like Florine, Valerie has no idea who I am and doesn't care that I'm unhappy with her.

Comeback Needs to Be Retired
"This is for the best, my reputation has never been worse..." Taylor Swift croons on her hit single "Delicate." This is not a true statement, much like Mickey Mouse, Swift seems immune to any kind of scandal or bad press. In fact, the entire Reputation album seems to be a way for her to convince people that she isn't the master manipulator behind these scandals, as she has been accused of, rather once again she is the victim. Even as she embraced the bad girl persona. And while the CD is not best selling in Swift's arsenal and had fewer hit singles than say her 1989 album, it did decent enough and the accompanying tour proved she is a superstar to be reckoned with. So then why are so many outlets calling her new single "ME!" a comeback? Mostly because that word is overused at this point and no one seems to know what it actually means anymore.

What 'BH90210' Should Look Like
Have you heard? Tori Spelling got an acting job! The Powers That Be are once again rebooting beloved 90s teen soap, Beverly Hills, 90210 as a mockumentary (think Curb Your Enthusiasm). The cast of the original series is reuniting (sans Luke Perry, RIP) after someone gets the bright idea to reboot OG 90210. Shannen Doherty was the last original cast member to sign on and is probably the most important one. Here's what should happen if the series is to be a success.

Not So Professional Picture
There are many things I am good at; writing, social media, and things that are best not discussed in this essay. However, there are some things that I lack enough knowledge about to call myself good or even adequate at. Playing games (DnD and apparently shooter video games are among my weakest) and photography. After taking a picture of the New York City skyline from a friend's apartment, many people encouraged me to try professional photography as a side hustle.
