The older you get, the trickier money gets between friends. As some of our pals excel in the money-making department, others fall behind. Sometimes it's because they're woefully irresponsible - they buy drugs with their pay, or drink and gamble it away. Other times it's because they have focused on less lucrative job opportunities. Many of my friends, for example, consider themselves musicians first and workers second. And while they create incredible art and feel gratified by the hours they spā¦
Everyone's the perfect parent ā¦until they have kids. That's the hot take a lot of parents express when they find people commenting on and criticizing their parenting techniques. I think there's some truth to this sentiment: I can't even imagine how difficult it is to raise a real human person. However, that doesn't mean that parents, especially those who make weirdly invasive social media posts documenting every part of their children's lives, are exempt from any criticism. Far from it, actuallā¦
60 years ago, retrofuturism was all the rage. Shows like The Jetsons predicted we'd have flying cars with and robot maids by now, but we have nothing of the kind. Predicting the future accurately is really difficult, because unless you're a highly intuitive psychic woman at the local fairgrounds, most of us don't feel confident making definite predictions for how the next couple of decades will go down. With the future of humanity increasingly uncertain, most of us are predicting things in 2072ā¦
Let's be real for a secondā¦consuming memes typically does not take a lot of brain power. Sure, some of them have words, but most have such a negligible amount of words that reading them barely counts as āreading.ā
The first official day of fall has arrived! Although not as dramatic as the summer and winter equinox, the beginning of autumn marks the dawn of one of the most aesthetically pleasing and generally pleasant seasons of the year. Going to a haunted house, carving pumpkins, watching spooky movies: these activities sooth the mind and squeeze out that dollop of happiness before the seasonal depression hits. Fall is one of the only months that has such fun seasonally sanctioned activities! In the winā¦
It's easy to feel a bit jaded by this world. Especially considering that with the advent of the Internet came the eventual ability to be able to answer any question we're stumped by, see anything we're curious about, and write down any/every stupid thought we have. Being able to know anything - and almost anything - kind of takes a lot of mystery and magic away from day-to-day life. Instead of sitting on this Amtrak train, admiring the lush environs of the Hudson Valley, I'm getting work done.ā¦
Where Brooklyn at? Where Brooklyn at? The New York City borough is kind of a big deal. While it may get a bad rap for harboring trust fund hipsters and intolerable yuppies, it's also a cultural hub like no other. Brooklyn raised some of the best rappers, from Notorious B.I.G. and Lil Kim to Jay-Z, as well as entertainers like Barbra Streisand, Larry David, and Eddie Murphy. We'd be remiss not to include Bernie Sanders. While it may not win the award for most diverse borough, it certainly comesā¦

Wellā¦ back to school season is officially over. The novelty of new classes and the burgeoning fall semester has more than wore off, and teachers and students are finally back at the old grind. If you are a teacher, you've probably got an idea of how the rest of the school year is going to go down. Or do you? You might think you've got a pretty solid read on your new classes, but who knows! There's a lot of days in between now and June. This school year hold so many possibilities. But then againā¦
