I’m Not Happy (I’m Lost). Content Warning.
Elliot is nothing but a dead woman, each and every night. Whenever her eyes fall shut, what appears in front of her is her own crumpled, lifeless body, abused and broken before her eyes. All she sees is the red stain of her own blood on the floor, the stench of it unbearably potent. There is always so much of it that it has soaked through the beige carpet, staining the frilly collar and the midsection of her ripped white dress, pooling under her head and drying in her hair, smeared across the sharp juts of her exposed hips and thighs.

Charli xcx’s Latest Album “BRAT” Is Amazing
Pop sensation Charli xcx has done it again, folks. She’s hit us with another impeccable album. Charli xcx Even if you aren’t familiar with Charli xcx, you’ve probably heard at least one of her songs before. Her feature on I Love It by Icona Pop in 2012 was everywhere for a while and became somewhat of an anthem. Her 2014 feature on Iggy Azalea’s hit song Fancy was impossible to escape for that entire year, and unfortunately became an even bigger anthem. She also had her own hit song Boom Clap for The Fault In Our Stars movie, which was pretty big. All three of these songs were pop tracks, a sound Charli soon chose to leave behind entirely.

Doctor, Help Me Out?
“Those are all my symptoms. And all this has been going on for months now. It’s been causing me so much anxiety. Not knowing what to do or how to treat it, or even why it’s happening.” Monica crosses one leg over the other, her fingers tapping anxiously against her leg. “That’s why I came here today. I don’t know what’s wrong with me.”

Nightbitch by Rachel Yoder . Top Story - June 2024.
INSANE journey of a book. In the very best of ways. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to get into this book at first, put off by this idea of the literal transformation of the story’s human protagonist into a dog, but Rachel Yoder’s impeccable writing made her physical transformation just as poignant and as meaningful as her psychological one. The metaphor of Nightbitch’s transformation into a dog displays the animalistic side of motherhood, the side that can be ugly while being strangely beautiful, in all of its love and its violence. Motherhood is a complex, multi-faceted gift, and a curse, and a miracle.

The Caged Bat Sings
The darkness is never true darkness. It is never what we once knew. The bright lights just beyond our tiny exhibit, this small, damp mockery of a cave, shine in our small, beady eyes, blinding us. The quiet stillness of our old cave is gone, replaced with loudness and movement and constant sounds, so many sounds, everywhere and all the time. There are no creatures besides us, not here. They are also prisoners, no doubt, locked away from us in more of these cramped, miserable, false versions of our home.

The Unrivaled Art in “Goodnight Punpun”. Content Warning.
I recently revisited one of my favorite book series of all time, Goodnight Punpun. And it was phenomenal. Goodnight Punpun is a very important series to me. Despite how dark and desolate the series is, it actually really helped me overcome a very hard time in my life. It’s one of those literary experiences that leaves you unable to do anything but feel, for better or worse, and I really appreciated its brutal humanity. It helped me come to terms with some of the trauma I was dealing with in my own life at the time I read it. It drove me to take action against my actively negative emotions and outlook on the world around me.
