20 Shows For You To Watch When You're Procrastinating
Vanity Fair

Netflix. Quite possibly one of the greatest things invented to help us procrastinate. Why study for Chemistry when you could watch Breaking Bad? Why finish that criminal justice paper when you could finish your Criminal Minds episode? I say take a break from your hectic day and watch a couple episodes of your favorite show or a movie to unwind. If you're conflicted about to watch tonight, here is a list of some of my favorites.

1. "No Tomorrow"

I mean look at him, why wouldn't you watch this show? P.S. He has an accent.

2. "Shameless"

All I can say is this family is all kinds of messed up..

3. "Stranger Things"

Aliens. Kids. Eggo Waffles.

4. Hart of Dixie

You can take the girl out of the city, but when you do she finds her biological father and involves herself in several love triangles.

5. "Mad Men"

I've never been more attracted to someone over the age of 40...

6. "Young and Hungry"

I think I should take a cooking class..

7. "Containment"

This show basically made me lose trust in the CDC and afraid to visit Atlanta.

8. "Begin Again"

Adam Levine. Keira Knightley. Mark Ruffalo...should I continue?

9. "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt"

If you're having a bad day, watch this show. I don't think your issues are even close to hers.

10. "Hush"

Deaf author who lives in the woods alone. What could go wrong?

11. "Helix"

Another show about an infectious disease outbreak, should I be preparing for something?

12. "Baby Daddy"

3 hot guys + 1 adorable baby = cuteness overload

13. "The Fall"

He may be messed up, but at least he's nice to look at.

14. "The Spirit of Christmas"

This movie makes me wish it was Christmas everyday.

15. "Jackie and Ryan"

Save this one for girls night. **Pass the tissues**

16. "Would You Rather"

This movie is not for the lighthearted..

17. "Before We Go"

The modern day one-night stand movie.

18. "Fuller House"

Nostalgia at its best!

19. "The Other Woman"

You better have two boxes of tissues for this movie.

20. "Blue Mountain State"

After you watch #19 you can watch an episode of this show to lighten your mood.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
