The Spellbinding Sound of Tom Misch
The Spellbinding Sound of Tom Misch
Let me paint a picture in your mind.
You’re biting into a square of dark chocolate and it’s smooth snap on your tongue spreads into subtly sweet warmth. You’re lounging by the window, wrapped in your comfiest blanket. It’s raining, but you’re warm from the fire and from your cigarette (or weed, depending on where you are). Looking out the window, you have this overwhelming satisfaction and…

Idea For Staying Focused When You're a Slave to your Emotional Currents
Idea For Staying Focused When You’re a Slave to your Emotional Currents
First off, this probably isn’t a ground-breaking idea. It’s fairly common knowledge that having house plants and gardening are great activities to boost mental health. And they also improve health in general by reducing some pollutants in the air and increasing humidity indoors.
Alternatively, I had idea to use plants as a a visual aid for internal problem solving or goal setting. Specifically,…

Ramblings on Self Esteem and Robots, and Some Homespun Wisdom I Guess
Ramblings on Self Esteem and Robots, and Some Homespun Wisdom I Guess
Okay, I woke up this morning and browsed Reddit like I usually do (though I tell myself every night that I’m going to wake up and work out or something) and I saw a video of a robot solving a Rubik’s cube in 0.38 seconds.
It happens in LITERALLY the blink of an eye! In the video you can hear the witnesses and (no doubt) creators of this robot react in awe and great amusement. But I felt rather…

That "Holy Shit" moment when I found out Honey Bees are still doing alright
That “Holy Shit” moment when I found out Honey Bees are still doing alright
Okay, let me walk you through how I got here, because until a few hours ago I believed that bees were dying off rapidly–a precursor to climate apocalypse.
If you google “honey bees” you’ll probably run into a sentence or headline in an article that looks like this, “A third of the nation’s honey bee colonies died last year.”
Now, you will find that phrase in some form or another in articles from…

The Power of Blame
The Power of Blame
I’m going to rant first and then explain.
We all know that one person who is never at fault for stuff that happens in their life and always plays the victim. You’ll never hear them admit to a mistake they made, even if called out on it immediately. And if they do, they’ll behave like they’re doing you a favor by admitting they did something wrong.
That type of person comes in two forms. One…

Germany: Oktoberfest
Fall is officially here, and with the season comes one of the most famous festivals; Oktoberfest! What began 200 years ago was not a festival, but a simple celebration. Bavarian Crown Prince Ludwig’s wedding to be precise.
This guy’s wedding was so stellar that they made it a yearly tradition. A tradition that has morphed into the stein-slamming and beer drinking good time it is today.
Crowds of…

Youtube Channel Spotlight: The Nerdwriter
I’ve never consciously acknowledged how much I cherished when someone taught me something, and I could feel their passion and care projected onto each bit of information. I’m sure many of you have had at least one teacher or mentor in your life that infused their passion into whatever topic they taught you, and in those moments you felt like you were actually capable of mastering that subject.

Artist Recommendation: The War On Drugs
Artist Recommendation: The War On Drugs
Picture this: You are standing alone in open plains, stretching for miles around you with no one in sight. Massive and dark storm clouds hover in the sky ahead–coming closer. You feel a melancholic calm reverberating through your body, as you feel like a chapter in your life is finally closing. Then the wind stops. You can hear every little sound of gently rustling grass. And finally, a low…

Writing Practice: Focusing on my Voice
Alright, I’m throwing correct grammar usage out the window for this one. I just want my feelings to flood out of the page, and I’m gonna to tell you a story from my recent trip at Shambala Music Festival.
I discovered something about myself, or perhaps re-discovered, that gave me an elated feeling of oneness with myself. The feeling came about in the fever pitch of Saturday Night, when everything…

Bangladesh Student Protests and The Bangladesh Chhatra League
WARNING: Graphic Images and Video are linked in this article.
If you have been on twitter or reddit recently, or read the news in any digital form, you’ve probably seen posts about student protests happening in Bangladesh. What does not bleed through in the headlines is how awful the situation has become. What started as a protest to improve traffic laws after two students were killed by a bus,…

Making the 4 day work week…work!
I remember going through school and always wishing that we had 4 days of school and 3 day weekends. My friends and I always fantasized about how many more fun things we could accomplish with 3 days off. Personally, I always had a firm belief that I could’ve done better in school if I only had to focus my energy into 4 days of classes–and then college scheduling came around and completely…

She was Magic
It’s as if I’d never had a best friend before I looked into her eyes. Sparkling.
Mischief. Confidence. Open.
She did the impossible, and made me laugh. Out loud. lol most certainly.
My humor was a secret, of course. It was too coarse for others and I’d hidden it away long ago. How did she find out about it? When did she embrace it?
I haven’t been myself lately. The last year has been an upside…

OPINION: Why I don’t agree with the NFL’s choice to fine teams with kneeling players
If you haven’t heard, the NFL has decided to fine the teams that have players who kneel during the national anthem. A major supporter of this decision is obviously Vice President Mike Pence, based on this tweet from Pence earlier today.
Now, a little bit of history. Players in the NFL started kneeling during the national anthem to protest police brutality toward Black males. This silent protest…
