Last month, I went to Kraków for my birthday, and honestly, I did not expect to miss it this much. This year, I turned 27, and for my birthday, my parents decided to gift me the possibility of going to a European capital. I wasn’t sure exactly where I wanted to go. Actually, no, that’s…
This is so controversial that you’re probably going to want to cancel me, but hear me out. So, I just read an article where, allegedly, Cate Blanchett, along with someone whose name I don’t even remember anymore, created some sort of organization to protect creative works from AI and whatnot. I don’t really remember all…
Not even an hour ago, I learned something heartbreaking. This article might feel very tied to current events, but everyone knows about the war in Iran unless they have chosen to completely tune out the news. Unfortunately, I also learned that Marjane Satrapi has died at the age of 56. I don’t know if everyone…
In today’s blog post, I want to talk about something I still think about years later. Some time ago, I had to make a choice. I’m not going to give the full details because I still don’t want to be that specific, even now. But years ago, I had to make a choice, and I…
I really needed that job. That is probably the first thing I need to say, because I think it changes the way people read a story like this. When you need work, you do not walk away lightly. You do not leave just because something is a little awkward or a little imperfect. You try…
Over the past few years, there’s been this growing trend online—especially on Instagram—where people pretend it’s the year 2014, 2015, or 2016 again. It really started picking up around 2024, and somehow it’s still going strong even now, in 2026. People recreate old Tumblr aesthetics, post grainy photos, wear vintage clothes, and talk about how…
I didn’t think I’d be writing this kind of post in January 2026, but here we are. Weights is shutting down on March 31st, 2026. And I’m not even being dramatic when I say I feel genuinely heartbroken about it. Not because a website is a website (it is), but because this keeps happening—over and…
I know how this title sounds. Protect her from what, exactly?That was my first instinct too—until I thought about it longer. If you grew up online in the 2010s, you remember Mackenzie Foy. She was always the little girl in something: the child in Twilight, Interstellar, The Little Prince, The Nutcracker. She was everywhere, quietly…
This is probably going to be a controversial thing to say, especially right now. Especially given something that happened mere days ago. I’m not going to name names. I’m not going to give details. If you’re reading this around the time it’s being published and you follow Western news at all, you already know what…
Every January, the internet turns into one long highlight reel. People post their little recap videos. The “best moments.” The glow-ups. The milestones. The perfectly edited proof that they had a meaningful year. And this time around, I watched two of my favorite celebrities do it, too. Just quick clips—year highlights, life updates, that kind…
