Man In The Box
Man In The Box has always been my favorite Alice In Chains song. Perhaps because I’ve often felt that I’ve been trying to escape the box that people are always trying to paint me into. Most definitely it has something to do with Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell’s vocal styling.

In the Mix with YouTube
Music mix channels are some of the best parts of YouTube. They keep you company when writing or studying. They’re great for finding new music, without having to dig through tons of other channels, or Spotify. It’s often the best part of my day to put music on and write.

Eight Suggestions to Improve Vocal
1. Text editing I am not asking for Microsoft Word like text editing capabilities. I understand that part of the appeal of the site is its simplicity. But, could we just add a few more features, at the very least subheadings and the ability to delineate story sections with like three dots or a line or something? Boldface type and italics can only go so far. Long stories especially would benefit from the ability to differentiate between sections but all stories could be improved with these two very tiny upgrades.

The Calvin Stickers
Let the grifters grift. It’s their only gift. You work hard on your craft. You spend hours on your craft. Just for someone to drop a link. Or worse, they drop something unrelated. It stinks. Maybe Bill Watterson was right, when he chose to ignore the sticker grifters. We’ll see.

Does size matter?
Does size matter? Am I critiquing an actual work here? Nope. Just expressing a thought. How big should a link be at the end of an article? I often like my pics for covers, because some Unsplash images make links too large when linked at the bottom of an article.

Ethereal Symphony
In this captivating artwork, luminous strokes dance gracefully, forming a breathtaking play of light. Yet, while composition echoes brilliance, an opportunity for deeper narrative connection arises. By intertwining thematic elements, this symphony could evoke profound emotions, ensuring lasting resonance in the observer's heart.

A Critique of The Ex
Visually appealing, however, the content swiftly proves mediocre at best. Accommodating a substantial lack of originality, with predictable plot twists, awful character development, and a final act that will leave even the most easily pleased with a sour taste in their mouths. A complete unadulterated disappointment. Avoid at all costs.

Social Media's Double-Edged Sword: Fueling Civic Engagement or Igniting Polarization in Democracy?"
In the modern digital landscape, the convergence of social media and democracy has emerged as a focal point laden with both potential and skepticism. Within this realm, the allure of boundless connectivity and unparalleled access to information has positioned social media platforms as conduits for personal connections, catalysts for grassroots movements, and catalysts for heightened civic involvement. However, this transformation is not without its detractors, who argue that these platforms bear responsibility for exacerbating societal divisions and fostering the creation of echo chambers.
