As we stand on the precipice of another potential Trump presidency, the policies embedded in Project 2025 cast a long shadow over the future of the United States. Crafted by the Heritage Foundation, this comprehensive plan for conservative governance could reshape the nation in profound and troubling ways. Fast forward to the future: if adopted, what might the 2025 policies make the U.S. become? Let's explore!

Intimacy, vulnerability, and power dynamics are themes that have long captivated storytellers and audiences alike. Two films that delve into these complex subjects are "9 1/2 Weeks" and "Fifty Shades of Grey."

Yesterday I watched a movie (Isn't It Romantic) with Rebel Wilson. (Spoilers!) Pretty quickly, I realized that excessive sweetness and predictability are comedic techniques. Rebel Wilson is a genuinely funny comedian, and the movie sounded very fresh, and even the blurred idea of ​​having to love oneself didn't stick too much in the context of the film.

For as long as I have lived, my understanding of what love is has constantly evolved. I believe many people don’t truly know what love is at all, or mistake it for the longing after an object of desire.
