Boycotting the State of the Union puts Democrats in an even worse state

Share: As a form of retaliation, a considerable number of elected Democratic lawmakers will be boycotting Trump’s first State of the Union address of his second term. Instead, they will be attending a rally in the National Mall, run by the left-wing advocacy groups MeidasTouch and MoveOn. However, this act of peaceful protest feels detrimental and troubling. The boycott will not accomplish anything; it will only add fuel to the fire of President Trump’s bombardment on the Democratic Party.  Democratic congress members have apparently made …

Winter intersession: The perfect time to earn extra credits

Share: While some students returned to campus this past week to start another go around of the year-long academic grind, many have already been hard at work for well over a month now, with the 2026 winter intersession recently wrapping up. The intensive, six-week course sees students hone their knowledge and skills in a specific subject, and for many, it is the catalyst to launching a productive new year. The accelerated courses are perfect for students who want to get the most out of the …

It’s wicked to make comments about people’s bodies

Share: With ‘Wicked: For Good’ being released in theaters on Nov. 21, many would assume the conversations surrounding the film would be regarding its music, visuals, or acting performances, but most conversations have been negative and unnecessary, talking about the appearances of the lead actresses, Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, and Michelle Yeoh.  Many comments under Instagram, Twitter, or TikTok either have negative comments about their bodies or are concerned for their physical and mental health. On social media, it’s easy to come across videos mocking …

‘Wicked Thin’ concerning weight loss for the main cast members starring in the film

Share: Many photos and videos taken by fans of Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, and Michelle Yeoh at the Wicked For Good premiere event in Singapore went viral after their idols’ bones were noticeably sticking out due to a significant change in weight. With such high status in the industry, Grande, Ervio, and Yeoh have been criticized for their appearance since the beginning of their fame. Therefore, they should be okay with these conversations of the fans speaking about their bodies because it is out of …

Gavin Newsom is trending towards the 2028 Presidential Election

Share: Gavin Newsom, the 40th Governor of California, has perfected his social media for rage bait against the right. His social media team is doing an excellent job, and hopefully is being paid top dollar for their work and creativity, because it might even be the reason he wins over the new generation and gets the votes in 2028. His X, aka Twitter, is the most active and go-to place to check if you need an update, his Instagram is polished and eye pleasing, and …

The mirrorball shone its light on a good couple but not the right couple

Share: Dancing With The Stars (DWTS) has just finished its 34th season and declared Robert Irwin and Witney Carson the mirrorball champions.

The Zohran Charm is real and reassured that Trump has no backbone or integrity

Share: The meeting that occurred on Nov. 21st between New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani and President Trump showcased the lack of integrity and nonexistent backbone that Trump has, which, of course, many already knew. Before the meeting was conducted, Trump had taken the time to constantly insult Mamdani, his voters, and allude to the idea that he was in the country illegally.  Immediately following the meeting, one could believe that Mamdani turned into Trump’s favorite person in the whole world. Trump consistently gave him …

Community colleges also deserve a week off

Share: With the Thanksgiving holiday recently happening, students came back from enjoying the holiday with their families with a 2-day break from Pasadena City College. Thanksgiving is a fun, special, and wholesome holiday to gather with loved ones, but is two days off from school enough time spent away from class? Other schools have a longer break for Thanksgiving, but PCC only had Thursday and Friday off. It seems as if community College students were given the short end of the stick when it came …

Pop stars should be bolder with their politics

Share: The outdated narrative suggesting that artists should “keep to themselves” when it comes to politics is being rewritten, and more pop stars need to get with the program. Today, advocating for human rights is an admirable trait that rarely costs musicians their fame anymore.  Palestine, ICE raids, transgender rights, and child labor: a few words that anyone in the modern world has heard, and would trigger thoughts of concern or maybe feelings of hopelessness from an inability to make a difference.  In today’s political …

Trump’s White House Talks To Us Dirty

Share: Correspondence from the White House or official federal agencies has always read kind of robotically… After all, it’s the government. They’re supposed to be boring. Messaging usually gets straight to the point, is written in an active tone, and almost feels not entirely human-written. Official communications have historically been devoid of emotion because that’s what they should be— an information pipeline to the American people that exists without opinion. The Trump administration has adopted an entirely different approach to public communication. Their messages all …
