Jordon Hudson is a consenting adult, and so is Bill Belichick

Share: Wearing a worn-down sweatshirt with a huge hole in the chest, Bill Belichick is being interviewed. When the reporter asks Bill “How did you two meet?” referring to him and his 24-year-old girlfriend Jordon Hudson, who had been supervising the interview from the sidelines. “We’re not talking about that.” She said abruptly in a cold and stern voice. The reporter dropped it and moved on. Bill never says a word, just expressing a consistent confounded expression. When there’s a significant age difference in a …

New gen K-pop idols are reforming the industry

Share: “I’m fucking proud to be part of the LGBTQ+ community!” declared Bain, member of K-pop group Just B, at their Los Angeles headline show on Tuesday, April 22. This unapologetic and very public coming out moment is what K-pop has been needing in order to keep moving forward progressively and maintain its global status. The industry’s labels/management companies are notorious for being incredibly strict on their idols’ public image in order to keep up appearances. In recent years, however, the corruption within this industry …

It would be a sin to miss the cinematography of ‘Sinners’

Share: After its third weekend in theaters, Ryan Coogler’s “Sinners” continues to prove there is something special about this movie, even though not everyone will be able to see it. Despite breaking records for an original film, audiences were split between the theatrical plot and the discourse around its character’s role and their story. Understanding we can’t please everyone, the negative critics miss the point, ‘Sinners’ is a cinematic event, a film to experience on the big screen. Set in Mississippi during the Jim Crow …

Fear mongering misinformation only deepens political divide

Share: The spread of misinformation regarding Trump’s rumored declaration of Martial Law on April 20 has caused unnecessary terror among Americans and could drive people away from educating themselves, further expanding the division between the right and the left. Throughout the month of April, various social media users on platforms such as TikTok posted videos saying President Donald Trump would be declaring Martial Law on April 20. Even though it’s irresponsible to spread misinformation online about what is happening with our already questionable and unhinged …

RFK Jr.’s remarks on autism are insulting and outdated

Share: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. made a statement implying that autistic people cannot lead normal lives at a press conference on April 16. Kennedy stated that autistic children “are kids who will never pay taxes, they’ll never hold a job, they’ll never play baseball, they’ll never write a poem, they’ll never go out on a date. Many of them will never use a toilet unassisted.” Kennedy’s assumption of autistic people couldn’t be more insulting to the autistic community. By assuming autistic people can’t lead normal …

Killer cultist’s courtroom cosplay is cretinous

Share: Lori Vallow Daybell, convicted child killer, doomsday podcaster, and now, part-time defense attorney (for herself, of course), has gone full legal cosplay. Most recently, she re-emerged in an Arizona courtroom where, surprise!—she once again fired her lawyers and chose to represent herself in the trial for conspiring to murder her fourth husband, Charles Vallow. She lost. Again. But if you think this is about winning, you’re underestimating the scale of Lori’s narcissism and her uncanny ability to treat a murder trial like a spiritual …

Today’s rom-coms don’t come close to their early Y2K counterparts

Share: It’s time to bring back the romance comedy magic that the early 2000s had. Although there are some acceptable rom-coms, such as “Always Be My Maybe” “Crazy Rich Asians”, and “Holidate”, that came out after the golden era for romance films, they don’t quite have the same feel as the early 2000s rom-com movies. For instance, the classic romance movie, “How to Lose A Guy in 10 Days”, released in 2003. The film stars Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey and follows an intriguing storyline. …

Coachella is not worth the high cost of hype

This year’s lineup is set to make a comeback after the disappointing 2024 attendees. Coachella has undeniably shifted from its roots as a music festival that celebrated art and culture to an event that has faced criticism for becoming more about …

Dodgers turned their backs on Los Angeles with White House visit

Share: The Dodgers recently visited the White House to be honored for their 2024 World Series championship, and it feels like a slap in the face to their fans. Los Angeles locals take a great amount of pride in the success of the Dodgers. For many people who grew up here, such as myself, sitting in the stands at a Dodger game with friends and family while your dad wolfs down a Dodger Dog is an integral childhood memory. I was born and raised in …
