How was the recent holiday (if you celebrated a holiday)? The most recent holiday our family celebrated was Easter. Usually we spend Easter dinner with our cousins, who live in Lincoln Park, but this time we ate separately. We didn’t get any decorations out, and we didn’t put as much effort into the food, but I shouldn’t be complaining because I’m pretty lucky.  I don’t know anyone affected by the thing, yet. Plus Easter is a wack holiday already. Who even is the Easter Bunny and what does he have to do with the ascension of Christ? We all complacently accept his customs without even questioning why. It’s probably because the Christians couldn’t come up with anything good so the atheists came along and said: “Let’s wear pastel shirts and hide eggs for the children to play with.” Anyway, to answer the question, it was good. How are you feeling about spring? I have mixed feelings about spring, because I hate early spring and love late spring. Late spring is the equiva...

My paper was about the Disney empire, and why their growth was bad for the industry. It explores not only how Disney turned from a small comic studio to a billion dollar conglomerate, but also how its growth affects smaller theaters, independent filmmakers, and us. Disney is a money making machine, and everything it does is fine-tuned to maximize profit, and that means, sometimes, manipulating us.

But as my research went on, and as I wrote the counter-argument and interviewed an executive at Disney, I noticed that Disney is definitely not a monopoly. They may be big and have a lot of control, yet i...

If you had to assign your current mood a color, what would it be and why? My current mood color would be FFAF6E, which if you look that up on google, is a calm-ish orange shade, which is similar to an orange sorbet/creamsicle, or a nice sunset. I chose this color because I'm in a good mood and the weather is getter warmer and orange is a great color. It's not intense like traffic cone orange and it's not frighteningly reddish like blood orange.  Drop a comment below if you are also enjoying this color!! How has your relationship with celebrities changed? I love how certain celebrities are giving back by being interactive with the public and stuff. Jim Halpert from the office show has a youtube channel where he gets famous people on a zoom call or something I haven't seen it. Frank Ocean finally dropping more music ( Dear April and Cayendo ). Another example: Florence Pugh has been posting videos of her cooking, dancing, and having fun on her Instag...
