There are two kinds of people in this world: Those who drink coffee, and those who don't.

Sometimes, non coffee-drinkers have difficulty understanding a coffee enthusiast's deep love and need for coffee. For all of you coffee-free people out there, here are 21 facts that every coffee lover wishes you understood.

1. We are not awake until we have FINISHED our first cup of coffee-- not having poured, or started, but FINISHED.

2. Our highest level of functionality for the day is set based on our coffee intake in the mornings (and throughout the day). Basically, coffee = fuel.

3. We cannot be held responsible for our words or actions before our morning cup of coffee.

4. Sometimes, one cup just isn’t enough.

5. We can drink a cup of coffee at any point in the day without it affecting our sleep.

6. We can’t walk past a coffee shop without the most irresistible urge to buy a cup of coffee.

7. Lots of coffee requires a collection of mugs; we own countless coffee mugs in all shapes, sizes, and colors.

8. No matter how many coffee mugs we own, we only ever drink out of our FAVORITE mug-- and no, you may never, under any circumstances, EVER use our favorite mug. It's ours. End of story.

9. Starbucks gift cards are the perfect gift. After all, the only thing better than coffee is free coffee.

10. Our vocabulary consists of words such as, "French press," "pour-over," and "Keurig."

11. We REALLY appreciate a great cup of coffee.

12. As much as we love a great cup of coffee, we really, really hate a poorly brewed cup of coffee.

13. We can taste the difference between regular coffee and decaf--NEVER give us decaf. It's insulting.

14. We are picky about how we take our coffee--no, you can’t just dump some cream and sugar in there and it be okay.

15. Sometimes, we even go as far as to roast our own coffee beans.

16. Coffee is our “feel-good” drink.

17. But coffee is more than just a drink, it's a passion.

18. Coffee solves every problem. Headache? Drink some coffee. Tired? Drink some coffee. Rough day? Drink some coffee. Need to pass the time? Go to a coffee shop and buy some coffee.

19. Just the smell of coffee can brighten up our mood.

20. Buying us coffee is our first love language; everything else is second.

21. We canNOT understand people who don’t drink coffee.

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.

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.
