10 Times 'Shameless' Accurately Depicted Your Life
Warner Bros

We all want to be a Gallagher. Fiona, Lip, Ian, Debbie, Carl, Liam, or even Frank — they are all amazing in their own unique way and we can somehow always relate to their daily struggles and dilemmas. The show's crude humor, engaging story-line, and strong casting are just three of its many redeeming qualities. No matter how chaotic the Gallagher's lives get at times, they keep you coming back for more and more. If you are in need of a new Netflix show to start binge-watching, "Shameless" is for you. I know at least one (or five) of these 10 moments from the show will flawlessly depict your life because let's be honest — "Shameless" gets us. If this show isn't already on your Netflix queue, get it on there as soon as possible... you won't regret it for a second, trust me.

1. When you get a better grade than your friend on an exam.

2. When you host the pregame at your apartment.

3. When your parents find out that you have been skipping class.

4. When the guy you have been crushing on doesn't even know you exist.


5. When you feel extremely confident while taking an exam.

6. But in reality, you missed 10 questions and your only chance of getting an A in the class is now ~gone~.

7. When you ask your friends if you did anything stupid the night before, praying that you didn't.

8. And they proceed to laugh at you and make you feel really bad about yourself.

9. So you attempt to justify your actions by saying everybody makes mistakes.

10. And even though it is 9 a.m. on a weekday and you have responsibilities, you decide it is time to get some rest so you can start the madness all over again later.

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.
