I don't know about you guys, but I really loved this new series, so much so that I established a personal record of binge watched hours in a row for an entire series - call me serial watcher (don't hate me for the pun, please).

Here's why I think you'll enjoy this gem:

1. The wedding

When the Prince reassures a very nervous Princess and your heart melts.


2. Happy family

The royal couple at their cutest in Malta living the dream. And the multitude of shirtless men all around *wink wink*.


3. Matt Smith's derriere

That moment when Prince Phillip is woken up to go bond with his father-in-law, the King of England, and he sleeps in the nude *fangirling*.


4. Princess Magaret and Peter Townsend's love story

Every good love story is a scandal in some way and this one sure is. Nothing is more tempting than forbidden love.


5. The coronation

Look how pretty!

Can we talk about how cute Elizabeth is when she tries on the crown and learns how to walk with all the heavy stuff they put on her? Just like her father.


6. Family drama

The pettiness of the members of this family is pure fuel for my addition to the royal family. The nicknames Prince Edward gives to everybody are priceless, as well as the savage comments of the Queen Mother. Even on deathbed, she is funnier than I will ever be, she just doesn't care. When I grow up I want to be like her!


7. And finally, your face when you have to wait for season 2

You want that blissful moment to continue, but the next season hasn't been released yet and you immediately go in withdrawal.

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human 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.
