We’re all familiar with the phrase “gender is just a construct,” it being the 21st century and all. That said, this phrase is something that a lot of people will still eye-roll at. Gender roles have dominated our society for hundreds of years. We’re used to traditional ideas like how high heels are for girls […]

Free Guy (2021) 3.5/4 What I like about movies is the art form’s ability to explore high-end concepts. Think 1998’s The Truman Show, which successfully explores the unique concept of a man who finds out his life is just a TV show. Shawn Levy’s new film Free Guy also has much success turning an interesting […]

I recently watched a really good movie. It’s called We Want Sex. Yeah, that’s right: We Want Sex. When I first read the title, I wasn’t tempted at all. I thought “Gosh, this is just another Bad Teacher kind of movie where they reduce females to an object.” But because I got annoyed, I actually […]

I always listen to music in the car, and, naturally, this playlist had lots of classic summer hits. I was halfway home when […]

I am writing this in a hotel in Doha. I have tested negative for COVID and there are six more days left in my quarantine. I’ve finally gotten comfortable with the idea of travelling via a third country and quarantining. I’m trying to make the most of my unpredictable and unplanned hotel vacation in Qatar. […]

This is a look back to help us understand that feminism is a constant fight for the future of others. It’s the belief in a human mind that is not limited to its surroundings. We need to look back at the simplest things, of what is so normal to us today. In fact, though, brave […]

Snake Eyes (2021) 0.5/4 Even before the pandemic, Paramount Pictures’ G.I. Joe film franchise had been struggling to find an audience. G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra and G.I. Joe: Retaliation didn’t do amazingly well financially and the majority of critical reception was poor for both. Now, in a desperate attempt to appeal to a […]
