Harris’ platform matters, not her racial identity
Share: The debate over Kamala Harris racial identity has been ongoing, but it’s become a bigger issue since she’s been in office. Why is it when a Black Person in a high position, their qualifications and identity are often questioned? Instead of focusing on their achievements, discussions shift toward their racial background. Rather than being recognized for their success, they’re penalized for being black, both personally and professionally. In a recent interview with The Guardian, Janet Jackson mentioned that she heard claims about Kamala Harris’ …

Outfit rememberers should leave outfit repeaters alone!
Share: The MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) took place Wednesday, Sept. 11, and many are criticizing celebrities in attendance for recreating past iconic looks of legends Madonna and Britney Spears, but there’s nothing wrong with publicly paying homage to great influences.

Madonna attended that year’s event with Michael Jackson and performed her song “Sooner or Later” from the movie “Dick Tracy.” …
‘The Bear’ minimum: A few laughs don’t make a comedy
Share: “The Bear,” a critically acclaimed show, broke their previously held record of most Comedy awards won at the Emmys this past weekend. But the show is not truly a comedy. The real comedy was how easily the show scammed actual comedic shows out of several awards, simply by being put in the comedy category instead of the drama one. “The Bear” deals with incredibly difficult and heavy themes. The show has made people laugh at times, at the good times, and sometimes at harder …
All I feel is pain these days thanks to the 49ers

Superheroes and celebrities won’t save Broadway theater
Share: Broadway has always been a stage for those already with fame but since the pandemic, it has fallen into exclusively relying on Hollywood actors to save the industry, ruining the quality of shows and the chance for lesser known actors to ever lead on Broadway. No business was hit harder during the pandemic than live theater. Broadway was closed for over a year and regional theaters across the nation never financially recovered from lockdown, with dozens of them permanently shutting down. The problem has …
Love triangles aren’t tired, they just aren’t in the best shape
Share: Love triangles have been one of fiction’s most common tropes for years now. From the likes of “Twilight” to the new generation’s “The Summer I Turned Pretty,” many writers default on this trope to engage their audiences and the trope isn’t tired, it’s just often done poorly. Take Jenny Han’s hit series “The Summer I Turned Pretty” (TSITP) for instance. The series follows its main character Isabel “Belly” Conklin and her romances with the Fisher brothers: Conrad, her first love, and Jeremiah, her childhood …
Your favorite show doesn’t need the reboot. Hollywood does
