"Natural Observations in an Unnatural World!"

Welcome back to our nature documentary about the lives of lesser-known species! Mates, 'ave we got some fantastic creatures for you to see today. First, we're gonna start off with that reclusive crittah known colloquially as "introverts". Believe it or not, these beautiful beasties are observed pretty much anywhere their far more recognizable cousins, "extroverts", can be found.

Introvertis totalis is distinguishable by two things: it only communicates with others of its kind once every other week and one other thing, but we'll get to that later.

Roight, let's look at a close up of a couple of these strange creatures. No, not that one! Crikey, it's ugly. Let's find another!

Oi mates, looky here at this beauty. We've gotta be extra quiet now, so we don't startle it. These things scare easily and when they get angry, they're mad as a cut snake!

Ah, and now we get to the second thing. See those round metal things on its face? For years, it was thought that they were simply an obscure organic appendage, but watch very carefully...there it goes...reaching up with one pale hand...and it did it!

It took those things off! Ace! While it has been scientifically noted that those round metal things can be removed without harm, permanent loss of them often results in vision impairment, for some odd reason.

Oi, here's another, in some form of hibernation. Its beady eyes seemed glued to the thing with all the scribbly lines in front of it. What we're now looking at is a magnificent form of a symbiotic relationship. That thing the introvert is holding is scientifically called a "book". Whata silly name, eh mate?

Now, 'ere's the amazing part: that introvert actually gains some form of nourishment from simply looking at that thing! Scientists still aren't sure what the "book" gets out of it, but it doesn't look harmed, so it must be mutually beneficial.

Because of their symbiotic relationship with "books," introverts can often be found in places called "libraries." In these peaceful enclaves, books gather in groups called catalogs, nesting on the tiny outcrops in the cliff faces known as shelves. Here is where the introvert can find itself at its most relaxed. In fact, some introverts even dedicate their lives to caring for the books that provide them with such a home.

Well, now that's one exciting critter, am I right, mate? Bully for them, but now we've gotta hustle over to our coverage of "Frogs' Mysterious Musical Affinity for Rainbows," but be sure to tune in next week when we explore the introvert's mating calls!

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
