The 'Arrowverse' Is Changing The Way TV Is Done And I Am Here For It

The CW has created the Arrowverse with the the DC Comics based shows "Arrow," "The Flash," "Supergirl," and "Legends of Tomorrow." Over the summer I decided to start watching "The Flash" and little did I know that once I started watching that show, I would get roped in to watching all of the shows that are a part of the 'Arrowverse.'

Once I finished "The Flash" I knew that I had to watch all of the others to really understand what is going on. This lead to a lot of commitment and I still haven't finished all of them yet! I have successfully watched "The Flash," "Arrow," and "Supergirl," but I am still working on "Legends of Tomorrow." Even though this has meant a lot of commitment to TV (more than I'd like to admit, it has been so worth it.

The CW has done a great job of creating very different worlds on each show that still come together so well for the giant yearly crossover. If you've ever seen "Arrow" you know that the show goes for a much darker vibe than "The Flash," and "Supergirl." Although, each show complements one another so well that when it comes time for the crossover sometimes you will forget that you are watching different shows.

All of these shows also give us tons of characters to fall in love with, and sometimes get a little mad at (I'm talking about you Oliver Queen). The actors all put so much work into portraying their characters well, because they know that before these shows even existed people loved these superheroes from the comics. With that being said, I imagine that it was not a easy thing to step into the role of an already loved superhero and make your own way with it, but each of them has done so well. (I mean casting Tyler Hoechlin as Superman? An incredible idea).

The CW has created a whole new universe for fans to fall in love with and they have done a great job with it. The 'Arrowverse' is changing the way linked TV shows are being done and they are doing an incredible job, while maintaining great story lines and introducing new characters (I'm talking about you Batwoman). If you haven't already watched all of these shows, I recommend you get started as soon as possible.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
