Sometimes she really has no chill.

10 Times Emily Gilmore Was Savage

In honor of the Gilmore Girls Revival, which premieres on Netflix November 25, I decided to re-watch the entire series. While doing so, I realized something that I had never noticed before. Emily Gilmore is savage. The matriarch of the family can really throw shade when she decides to. To commemorate this, here is a list of my top ten favorite Emily shade moments.


10. When she said this not so subtle dig into Lorelai

We all remember that episode back in season one when Lorelai and Rory just reconnected with Emily and Richard, and Emily thought that Rory should get to know her grandfather and that the best way to do that would be to go golfing. Obviously Rory would need to borrow her mothers old golf clubs that are wasting away just like the rest of Lorelai's potential.

9. That time she had no patients for incompetence

Emily doesn't have time for anyones incompetence. She's an important woman with places to be and people to see.

8. ...Even on the phone

For the record the definition is a weakening in the artery wall causing it to enlarge...something I'm sure anyone could have after being ripped into by this queen.

7. ...And Again

Emily? Unreasonable? Never...

6. Just because of this look

Who wouldn't be terrified after getting this stare down?

5. When she was full of wisdom


Emily really has some of the best lines in the show.

4. She can't just wait around all day and night

She really is the queen of sass.

3.When she's open for business

I mean, who doesn't LOVE this classic scene? Season Five was really just a great season all around.


2. When she had no chill

Sometimes she just really got tired of Lorelai's shenanigans.

1. When she SHUT SHIRA DOWN

BURN! Honestly, this is definitely one of my all time favorite Emily scenes. She will always stick up for and protect her family. She's not going to let Shira or any of the Huntzberger clan hurt Rory again.


EMILY GILMORE IS THE BEST! THE END.

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.
