10 Shows Every Geek Needs To Catch Up On This Summer
Jens Kreuter

Here's a list of the best paranormal, or comic-action turned tv show out there currently that you should watch if you appreciate geek art, and want some stuff to binge-watch this summer!

Things to catch up on:

It's in its last season currently. And man is it a pretty parkour/martial arts, heart-wrenching roller coaster. Not to mention the comedic brilliance that is Dylan O'Brian!

1. Once Upon A Time

Imagine every childhood Disney character you loved brought to life, and their stories interacting and causing new evils, and greater adventures, and even better stories. Yea, watch this show!

2. Agents of Shield

S.H.E.I.L.D. Is back, and they have some amazing, mysterious characters and powers that you won't believe. Spoiler: Agent Coulson isn't dead. Find out why!

3. The Magicians

This is sort of like a retro Narnia with magic and evil baddies! It's like watching the drama of Skins, with a Sci-Fi twist

4. SuperGirl

The comic age is back and taking over television! Watch a great female icon kick some ass and take some names with some pretty badass villain and hero crossovers to top it off!

5. The Flash

You may not be a big fan of the Flash now, but once you start this show, he will easily be one of your favorite heroes! Watch his epic story unfold!

6. Arrow

You may want to take up Archery after watching this. Get inside the messed up yet the courageous mind of Oliver Queen and watch as he becomes the flash and takes on some of the greatest villains in the DC universe!

7. Legends of Tomorrow

This is a new marvel concept and it's pretty amazing! Time travel, heroes from all periods of time, and some legends that you even forgot you loved! Definitely, check it out!

8. The Originals

Badass vampires, werewolf, New Orleans, and some pretty attractive witches! (Girls and guys) this show is a recipe for supernatural drama and emotional investment in characters that you can't return from. This show was originally thought to be a "spin off" from Vampire Diaries, but you would never even know (minus literally 2 cross over episodes out of all 3 seasons so far.) It's also super relatable.

9. Stranger Things

If you haven't caught on to this craze yet, do it! Just do it!!!!!! I can't even really explain what it's about. You just have to watch it!

AI music threatens creativity

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
