    Hey, Starbucks, You’ve Got a Bug Problem

    Well, maybe not a bug problem – but a parasite problem. It’s no secret that Starbucks is a coffee giant, and the benefits of the job definitely outweigh the work put in (at least on paper).

    The Revolution of Teen Angst into the Neo Metalcore Culture of Today

    Take our definition of a difficult life and the worst days of our lives and add ten years. The former angsty teenagers of 2008 have grown into the working class of today. The venues that were once filled with Sharpie-drawn Xs are now scattered with tattoo-clad adults, all with a beer in hand and cigarettes […]

    The Virtual Connection

    YouTuber Shane Dawson released a new docu-series on his YouTube channel. While the topic he dove into may be a mystery for the newer viewers, those of us who were integrated into the vlogging and blogging community earlier in life are mildly familiar or at least familiar with the person Shane had in this new […]

    An Open Letter to the Non-Asian Owners of Asian Restaurants,

    There are two things that this world can agree on: People deserve credit for what they’ve rightfully accomplished and created. If you have achieved something that is life-changing or moving, your name deserves to be tied to it. The second: We hate false advertisements.

    What is the Problem?

    What is the Problem?

    ­­­­­“What can we do to make you feel safe and supported?” Safe and supported? What does that even mean? Two years ago, I was standing at the sample cart at Teavana, and two businessmen walked by me. One was white and one was of mixed race. As they walked by, I asked if they would […]
