BACK TO THE FUTURE

On behalf of all the women who (temporarily) moved back to their hometowns due to COVID-19, the results of the 2020 experiment are in: the Hallmark fairytale is a lie.

The Hallmark Channel creates cheesy flicks year round, but they really crank out production for the holidays. Their cookie cutter formula is simple as a sugar cookie. Girl leaves her life in the city for a temporary visit back home. Girl struggles at first to adjust to the ways of her wholesome hometown. Girl bumps into a handsome yet humble hunk. Girl falls in love, does a career 180, and never goes back to the evil city again.

Damned If You Do…

Mixed signals. The worst of the worst is mixed signals. Girls, you know what I’m talking about: when every little thing between you and him seems like a rather big thing? And then it’s actually not?

And Damned If You Don’t!

If I am currently not in a relationship, it isn’t because I’m depressed, it’s because I’m happily single. Happily Single doesn’t mean that I’m against relationships, It just means that for this period of time I’m not looking to be in a relationship and am having fun dating myself. What I hate most about this topic is the assumptions and categorizations that go along with it. “Are you gay?” “Are you lonely?” “Are you dealing with a lot of stress?” “Did you have a bad breakup with the last Read More…

15 mind-blowing stats about Generation Z as we head into 2021

Wipe that generational skepticism aside: Generation Z, born 1997 to 2012 and the oldest of whom are now entering the workforce, are a cohort to admire, learn from, and even emulate. Gen Z is all about diversity, ethics, and values, with each one factoring heavily in their choice of which brands they’ll buy from and which companies they’ll work for. At the same time, the younger half of this group is being molded and educated during a global pandemic – a completely unique experience for all of us and especially challenging for young people at a crucial point in their growth and development.

The long history of forecasting capitalism’s demise.

Did I ever tell you about my idea for a TV show? I envision it as a kind of alternate-history thriller—think Watchmen meets The Man in the High Castle meets The Plot Against America. The premise: The Bolsheviks’ wildest hopes were fulfilled, and their seizure of power in Russia was indeed followed by worldwide socialist revolutions. Yet these uprisings didn’t happen as expected, for the revolutionaries were not left-wing militants but the political… Read More…
