Thanksgiving As Described By Grey's Anatomy

Another year has gone by, and it's finally that time again. Time for thankfulness, food, and oh-so-crazy relatives. Some of you may be having your own small get-together. Others may have the entire clan this year. Whatever your case may be, these are some situations that the majority of us can probably relate to.

1. When someone makes a comment on how many plates you've gotten

2. When everyone keeps asking you when you're finally going to have a relationship

3. When that one relative that's always a Debbie Downer shows up

4. When the not-so-bright relative says something surprisingly ignorant

5. And when it turns out they're 100 percent serious

6. When your super successful cousin makes you question your very existence

7. And when said cousin asks you what you do for a living

8. When a disagreement among family members starts to escalate

9. When someone brings up one of your life decisions you'd rather forget

10. When someone brings up the oh-so-wonderful news of marriage or engagement

11. When you go back for another plate and all of the food you wanted is gone

12. When you need to step away for a moment before you lose your mind

13. And when someone sees you and tries to get you to come socialize

14. When the subject of what you're doing with your life comes back up

15. And when you drunkenly start to spill your heart out about it

16. When there are no leftovers whatsoever

17. And when you realize in the end, family is family and you love them all anyway


Or.... maybe it's just my own crazy family.

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.
