The Best Of Everything 'Orphan Black'

There's no better love story than the sestras on Orphan Black. And there's no better place than the internet to find fan-made brilliance that will only be appreciated by the Clone Club.

Fans of Orphan Black will argue until the day Rachel becomes a sestra about which member of the Clone Club is Number One. There's the manic maniac, lovable assassin, and kid-loving savage with many sides to her

As Sarah's twin, and Alison and Cosima's sestra, Helena made us laugh, cry, cover our faces in fear, and most of all, fall in love with her.

Then there's her equally psychotic sestra, Alison, who has a no-nonsense attitude about everything, including pharmaceutical entrepreneurs, the best way to bury in a body in your garage, and how alcohol brings on good ideas

Cosima might make a solid argument as the coolest sestra, with her laid-back attitude, really cool hairs, and a really hot girlfriend whose name is just as cool (it's Delphine if you didn't know. Loser)

But then you remember what a badass Sarah was to (mostly) keep her shit together, keep her family together, and keep her sestras together when she was literally fighting for her life because she gave zero effs

Helena could make your heart stop with her ability to kill without hesitance, but there was just something so innocent whenever she called her sisters “sestra”

Helena even included Sestra Felix, despite his obvious love-hate relationship with her

Clones, genetic identicals - whatever you want to call them, Sarah, Helena, Alison, and Cosima were sestras through and through.

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.
