There is a universal truth to everyone’s existence — death. People don’t necessarily like to sit around thinking about death all the time because it’s a major buzz kill (duh), but when we do, we like to think that we’ll be pushing 100, surrounded by all of our friends and family, and passing peacefully in our […] More
You’ve seen the signs and you’ve received the amber alerts. People go missing every day, and it’s f*cking horrible. Sometimes the circumstances are quite clear. There were witnesses, and you know exactly what happened to the person. But other times, it’s all a creepy mystery. No one quite understands what happened and where the person […] More
Prison is no joke and we’ve become obsessed with the realities of those that are incarcerated. Prison Break paved the way for such shows as Orange is the New Black and we continually cannot get enough of them. The harsher the reality, the more fascinating it is. Incarceration is hardly a laughing matter, especially with […] More
It’s common for people to dehumanize homeless people. You see them daily, and there comes a point where they don’t surprise you anymore. It’s pretty unfortunate that this is the case. You see, we all have to remember that they’re PEOPLE. Human beings, with human emotions. Oftentimes life wasn’t fair to them. They had a […] More
Psychologists are there to sit and listen and help us work through our plethora of problems. Daddy issues? Sure thang. Addiction? Yep. Our strange and debilitating attraction to inanimate objects and our need to eat couch stuffing? Yeah, they can help with that, too. After our one hour sessions are up, we go back out […] More
Saying goodbye to someone that you know is dying is a horrible experience. Although it’s one of the hardest things you’ll ever have to do, you have the chance to say all that you want to say, and let the person know you love them before they depart. But sometimes you don’t get that chance. […] More
Life is full of tough choices and situations. Yeah, I know, that’s common knowledge, but it’s important to remember that everyone around you is dealing with their own sh*t, and to always be kind and compassionate to others. When it comes to facing difficult situations, people handle them differently. We stand strong or crumble under […] More
I once dated a guy that proclaimed that “cat calling” wasn’t a part of the patriarchy. HAHAHAHA — OKAY DUDE (we broke up shortly thereafter). When girls start going through puberty and walk down the street just as any regular human being would, men start harassing them with a disgusting fervor. It’s an assertion of […] More
Ahhh, New York City: the concrete jungle, where dreams are made of. If you make it here you can make it anywhere, right? They don’t let you on the unknown hazing that you have to go through to become a full-bread New Yorker, thought. The damn subway. You ever wonder why MTA employees are never […] More
Appliances are supposed to help make our lives easier and keep the humble abode tidy. No one wants to come home to a filthy house with a bunch of broken household items, right? But what if your trusty tools suddenly turn on you? Accidents happen all the time, yes, but some freak accidents can cause […] More
When you’re having sex, or really doing anything sexual, all you’re thinking about it getting off, and enjoying the moment. You’re not thinking about all the possible ways you could get injured during the process. But sex injuries aren’t only real, they’re terrifying. Sometimes they hit you when you least expect it. You just wanted […] More
In Saudi Arabia and other nations who incorporate some form of sharia, or Islamic law, people must abide by a certain set of rules based off the Quaran and the Hadith. And I’m not talking about your average run of the mill “don’t drink and drive” type of laws that we have here in the […] More
