Stop Cyber Bullying
We live in a world where information is at our fingertips. The world wide web. It is supposed to be the greatest tool of the 21st century. And yet this magic that brings us closer together comes with a cost. It comes with anonymity. This anonymity is a power to those who were once afraid to share their voices. It's the 'Dear Abby' of the 21st century, but instead of using it as a tool to ask for help and advice, many use it as a way to hurt and attack others.

Stop Idolizing Harley Quinn
Psychiatrist. Vigilante. Landlady. Criminal. These are the occupations, former and present of Harley Quinn. A fan favorite, Harley Quinn is a character many love and some even idolize. While I have enjoyed the character in the 1992 cartoon Batman: The Animated Series I find myself in the minority of thinking her such a great character. In fact, I find her idolization quite disturbing.

Loki & Bi-Sexuality
DISCLAIMER: THIS ARTICLE IS BASED ON FACTS THAT I HAVE LEARNED AND ACCUMULATED OVER THE YEARS. IT IS NOT MEANT TO OFFEND ANYONE OF LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY, THE NORSE PAGAN COMMUNITY, AND ANY STUDENTS OF NORSE MYTHOLOGY. IF SOMETHING DOES NOT SOUND RIGHT, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO SEND ME A MESSAGE AND TELL ME WHAT WAS WRONG AND WHY. POLITELY TEACH ME SO THAT I MAY LEARN PROPERLY AND EDUCATE OTHERS.

The Handmaid's Tale
The Handmaid's tale is a cultural phenomenon! For anyone who has seen the television show, one can see and infer many similarities in our present world and this dystopian future. The book the show inspired has many similarities as well as many differences. This is to be expected as the book is a stand alone novel where as the series is able to go into depth with what the book speaks of. We shall first speak of the broad differences before going in deeper to the details of the book versus the show.

'The Tudors' Costumes Part 2
We have now arrived to part two of this series of how costumes can tell a story. Much of the anger towards the costuming in Showtime's 'The Tudors' is related towards Anne Boleyn's costumes. What I find most interesting is that all people do is criticize instead of asking why her dresses were made this way. Since Anne has so many clothes, we shall be explaining her wardrobe in two parts. Part one will focus solely on her clothes from season one.

Pongo & Perdita "Siblings"?
The long awaited release of 'Cruella' starring Academy Award Winner Emma Stone has been released May 28th, 2021. The movie has brought to life to a new origin for the puppy-killing villain. One that is both heart-warming and tragic. This is a story not for the light hearted and even less of a story for children. The rest of this article contains spoilers. Those who have not yet watched 'Cruella' should leave this article now.

Truest Heroes
There has been nothing easy about the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. We are all struggling and what I'm about to tell you, I am sure many of you have experienced as well. In March, I had been furloughed from my job as a waitress. I have had to apply for unemployment. I am living with my parents (though I now jokingly say they live with me and just happen to pay for everything). I am single with little social life, and even less now as the majority of my friends live in other states. I have done the best I can to remain in contact with them thanks to social media and online game nights, but they do not compare to the real thing of being with them in person.

Downside of Media
Town Criers. Word of Mouth. Newspapers. Magazines. Radio. Television. The Internet. Social Media. These are all forms of communication. Some are older than others, yet they are all effective in doing one thing; sharing news. This is a great thing for with each advancement, with each chapter of evolution in media, the world has become a smaller place. It has allowed everyone to become closer and share all that is important to us and all that we love.

Save the Trees
In. Out. In Out. That is how we breath. One breath in with oxygen, and one breath out with carbon dioxide. To some this sounds like a bunch of mumbo-jumbo right? Well it shouldn't! Every living thing on this planet needs oxygen to breath and live. Well, almost every living thing. The ones that don't need oxygen are the plants. What they need more than anything else is carbon dioxide.

A Twist in My Story
There is nothing more enlightening and more life-changing than a song that moves you. A song that makes you feel something so unique and inspiring that you can't help but listen to it all the time. That song for me is 'A Twist in My Story' by Secondhand Serenade. It sounds so corny to think that or even the fact that I heard this song by accident on Pandora one day just a few years ago and yet it spoke to me in ways I cannot begin to describe.

Trials of a Waitress
I have been working at Red Robin now for almost six months and I have learned more about human behavior and patience in that time than I have ever expected. I have finally reached my breaking point about being a server to the point where I have to journal about it for the world to see. There are things that your servers will never tell you. There are things we do because we have no choice. This is just the short things I know from experiences or what my fellow servers have told me.
