Live-Reaction Movie Review: Rosa Leigh
Alright, I am writing this review as I watch Rosa Leigh, so bear with me. Apparently, Rosa Leigh was a troubled child who lied about her teacher putting his hands on her. The teacher found her near the stairs and pushed her down the stairs. The school janitor saw everything and tried to intervene, only to fall over the railing with the teacher. All three died, and the school closed down.

Dating in a Time of COVID-19
Being single and quarantined is anything but ideal. Loneliness seeps its way in as in-person contact becomes more infrequent. As someone who deals with a mood disorder called cyclothymia, this is at once a challenge and a relief. Hypomanic Me is like, "Why?! I just want to go out and see things and talk to people and drive my Jeep and go to the park with the kids and yadda, yadda, yadda." Depressive Me is feeling even more fatigued and irritated by silly little things, and she just wants to bury herself under the covers with a really long book.

Breaking the Ice Without Playing Nice
Here's a scenario that I've found myself in while browsing through men's dating profiles online. I find a guy who seems interesting (and not like prime stalker-boyfriend material) and who might be my 'type', but I have no clue what to say to him in that initial message. I've passed on sending messages just because I couldn't come up with good icebreakers, not because the guys' profiles were lacking substance.

Guys, Here's Why Women Swipe Left on Your Dating Profile
You're on X-number of dating websites/apps and growing ever the more frustrated. Women aren't responding to your messages, let alone "liking" or "swiping right" on your profile. It has been weeks, maybe months, or even years. You want to give up, but there's that little sliver of hope left that she's out there somewhere.

Who Threw Belle in a Well?
April 22, 1981. Teenage sisters Tammy and Cathy Baxter were playing outside of their father John's home in Lawrence County, Ohio. They found a burned-down home that had been that way for an estimated six to eight years. Near that home was a cistern closed up by a block and some wooden beams. The girls' curiosity got the better of them, and they peered into the dark depths of the cistern. What they saw made them run home and tell their father what they found.

Adding Flair to Your Anti-Hero
Anti-heroes extend back in literature about as far as you can go. Why are they so appealing? Because they are the most like the rest of us. We make mistakes. We have flaws. We do things because we think they will benefit us. It's part of the human experience.

Every day, we go about our business, not spending much time thinking about what it would be like to vanish off the face of the earth. These missing persons probably never entertained those thoughts, either, as they went about their lives in the Midwestern state of Michigan.
