I spent a lot of time shopping on the internet this week while I definitely should have been doing other things but its fine. Here is some of the awesome stuff that I found.

1. Human Sling Shot

Basically, you grab three friends who you do not mind body slamming into and together you guys get in a giant rubber band and try not die. What could possibly go wrong? Seriously though, this looks like an incredible amount of fun and if anybody wants to donate one to me I will use it all the time.

2. Play-Doh

Everyone's favorite childhood toy, Play-Doh allowed us to embrace our inner sculptor while also being super fun to play with. On top of that, it is so relaxing to squeeze.

3. Adult Coloring Book

I have two of these and I used them a lot right after I had my wisdom teeth removed. They are awesome for killing time because you get really invested in them. You'd be surprised how satisfying they can be.

4. Mazooka: The Marshmallow Bazooka

For when a mere marshmallow gun just will not get the job done. You never know when you will need to launch a full-sized marshmallow at a friend or rival.

5. Dinosaur Bubble Gun

This will never not be awesome, I mean, look at it!

6. Orbeez

These little balls come to you in hard little seeds that you soak in water and they grow into bouncy little balls. I got these for my birthday one year and yes, they are just as fun as they look like. They are squishy and slimy and oh so satisfying to hold in your hands. If you are tactile at all: you need these.

7. Nerf Gun

Picture this, its Christmas morning (or any other holiday you celebrate) and the entire family opens up Nerf Guns: prepare for the best Christmas morning ever.

8. Unicorn Popper

Just look at this little guy! Who does not want to shoot rainbows at their friends with a satisfying little pop sound.

9. Giant Inflatable Soccer Ball

There is nothing about this that is not awesome. I want to blow one up. I want to kick one. I want to try to climb on top of one. I want to try to play real soccer with this.

10. 26-Pound Gummy Python

Technically not a toy, but I won't judge.

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.
