10 Shows I Probably Should've Watched By Now

The world of television has dramatically changed in the 21st century. Shows got grittier, darker, and more violent. Characters became more and more complicated. Some shows could even be passed off as movies due to the increased budget and quality Instead of "The Andy Griffith Show", we have "The Office". Instead of "Lost in Space", we have "Game of Thrones".

With this new era of television and the level of accessibility that everyone has -- why haven't I gotten around to watching these shows yet?


1. "Rick and Morty"

It's been hard to find a show that fills the gap that "Futurama" left me with after it ended -- and I feel like this one is the one! I've seen clips of the show, played the apps that are themed after episodes. And yet, I haven't even seen one full episode.


2. "The Walking Dead"

I'm a sucker for zombies -- "The Last of Us", "The Evil Dead", "Left 4 Dead", you name it. I've even played Telltale's game, set in the same universe. But even after six seasons, I just haven't gotten around to watching it.


3. "Breaking Bad"

I've been meaning to watch this show for six years. I have no clue why I've still avoided spoilers.


4. "Mad Men"


Considering that I'm a fan of shows taking place in different time periods and a fan of dramas -- I should've gone through this already. Also...


5. "House of Cards"

Considering that this is also a drama (and a political drama at that), there's no excuse why I haven't gotten around to it. Also, Kevin Spacey.


6. "Fargo"

I loved the 1996 movie directed by the Coen Brothers -- so naturally I probably should've seen this by now.


5. "Veep"

If the critics' approval couldn't get me to watch this show, then the relevancy to this year's presidential election should've convinced me.


6. "The Sopranos"

Anything I've heard about this show has come from my friends, who have been hammering me to watch this show for years. Sorry, guys!


7. "The Wire"

I've heard that this is one of the "greatest shows of all time" -- so it's only natural that I need to see this at some point, right? It's set and filmed in the Baltimore area, which is local territory for me. From what I've heard, it takes a deeper look into the inner systems of the city, which could be extremely interesting to watch.


8. "Curb Your Enthusiasm"

A comedy which is widely considered to be the spiritual successor to one of the quintessential sitcoms of the 1990s, "Seinfeld". And since I love Seinfeld -- I should love the same type of show.


9. "Twin Peaks"

With the release of "Stranger Things" (which I did watch, actually) on Netflix this summer comes the reminder that I should've watched this show a long time ago.


10. "True Detective"

Even though I heard that the second season of this show was kind of lame, the reputation behind the first season should be enough to get me to watch.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
