11 Types Of Signs I Saw At The Women's March
Kayleigh Purcell

This weekend, I had the opportunity to go to the Women’s March in Philadelphia.

This experience was unlike any I’ve ever had before. I went with a group of fantastic girls and it was so great to see how many people turned out. There were people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds there to support women’s rights and it was so great to see how many people felt passionate about the cause.

One of the best parts of the march was for sure the signs. It was so cool to see what everyone came up with, so below, see some of my favorites.

1. Political

Believe me, there are plenty of pictures I could have used for this one, but let’s all admire how perfect that Twitter bird is

2. Intelligence

Girls can do anything boys can do and don’t you forget it. Plenty of girls used their signs as a way to promote just how smart girls can be.

3. Optimistic

These are the signs that you read and immediately feel empowered and like you could take on the world.

4. Artistic

These are the signs that lower your self-confidence, you know? Like you just look at it and it has all these pretty colors and your sign gets too close to it and you can’t help but think, damn.

5. Rhyming

Who doesn’t love Dr. Seuss? No better person to model your rhyming sign after.

6. Song-inspired

Some people are just so creative… I loved this song in fifth grade because my favorite American Idol contestant sang it. I screeched when I saw this one.

7. Word Play

My roommate is also an engineer so shout out to her and all the other female engineers out there. I seriously applaud you guys.

8. Harry Potter

Who doesn’t love Harry Potter?? And if there’s one person I’ve always wanted to be it’s Hermione Granger.

9. All-encompassing

These signs just hit everything at once. Anything a person could be upset about is represented on this one sign.

10. Poetic

Some of the signs are just too beautifully written. They have these beautiful long quotes on them that just give you chills to read about.

11. Family

Let’s be honest, everything is better when you do it as a family. These families sure did come ready to make a statement.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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.
