34 Things That Cross Your Mind Every Time You Watch "Fixer Upper"
HGTV

HGTV is a gift from the television gods that features shows such as "House Hunters," "Flip or Flop," "Property Brothers," and many more. However, the gem of all home-improvement shows is "Fixer Upper," featuring Chip and Joanna Gaines; a husband and wife realtor-contractor-designer-home flipping team that literally changes people's lives. "Fixer Upper" is a gem. It is inspirational to all HGTV and Pinterest lovers alike. It creates a beautiful sequence of thoughts, questions, and ideas while you watch...ideas such as the following:

1. Why are Chip and Joanna LITERALLY relationship goals?

2. Look at the goats! They're so cute.


3. I should seriously consider moving to Waco, Texas.

4. Like really, the houses are SO CHEAP and SO CUTE.

5. Is that a dead rat?

6. That house is bad...really bad.

7. It's okay, because Chip and JoJo can fix ANYTHING.

8. Which house will they choose??

9. Does it really matter? Chip and Jo will make every house look amazing.

10. It's not an episode of "Fixer Upper" until Chip talks about his belly.

11. How does Joanna get her hair to look like that?

12. She is ~flawless~

13. All about that open floor plan. Who needs walls?

14. YAAS! SHIPLAP!

15. Shiplap is bae

16. I wonder how my house would look with Shiplap...

17. And French Doors.

18. Oh! A soaker tub!

19. AND a walk-in shower.

20. I wonder how much it would cost to have Chip and JoJo design my future home...

21. Aww...Chip and Joanna are so cute. They're so in love.

22. Is there a way to find out if a wall is low-bearing before you demo it?

23. I should seriously move to Waco.

24. Their farmhouse is perfect.

25. Why are their kids so cute?

26. THEY ARE LITERALLY SO PERFECT.

27. I wonder if they've tricked anyone with the poster...

28. Look at that Shiplap! Yay Shiplap!

29. Can I hire Joanna to stage my house for me?

30. Better yet, will she teach me how to go antiquing?

31. Look at the Subway Tile...it's almost as flawless as Chip and JoJo.

32. I'm so glad they love their house.

33. This is better than Pinterest.

34. Screw it. I'm moving to Waco.

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.
