14 Things That Are Better Than Boys
Paladin

Valentine's Day is just around the corner, so there's no better time for single ladies to re-evaluate their perspectives on relationships. If you're feeling lonely this February, just think about all of the things in life that are usually better than boys. Be warned, most of these things are food.

1. Chick-Fil-A Sauce

Okay, really, it's a number three eight count with a lemonade AND Chick-Fil-A sauce, but that's a little too wordy. Get lost in the sauce.

2. Puppies

Need I say more?

3. Pasta

Pasta of all kinds! Fettuccine, Ravioli, Rigatoni, it's all wonderful.

4. McDonald's All Day Breakfast

Hotcakes would never break your heart.

5. A Good Nap

Not just any nap; the kind that makes you think you just woke up from a coma. The naps that are only induced by a good meal and too much free time.

6. Finishing A Book

I would suggest one that doesn't give outlandish, unrealistic expectations about love.

7. Spending 12 Hours Watching Ru Paul's Drag Race

No regrets.

8. Coffee

Is it possible to ask an inanimate object to be your valentine?

9. Kittens

Unlike boys, ALL kittens are cute.

10. Turning In A Homework Assignment Before The Day It's Due

This is infinitely better than chocolate and flowers.

11. Mozzarella Sticks

I warned you that this would be mostly food.

12. Sonic's 50 Cent Corndog Day

This will ALWAYS be better than boys.

13. Concerts

I know it's not all "John Cusack" style, but let the artists serenade you.

14. Independence

You don't have to be single to be independent, but it sure does force you to be. Take time to appreciate the little things in life and worry about yourself! Don't take this special time for granted.

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.
