5 Reasons You Need Ben And Jerry’s In Your Life

1. Netflix and The Tonight Dough

The Tonight Dough is perfect for all your binge-watching needs. Some nights you just need to have a princess movie marathon with the girls and caramel, chocolate, peanut butter, and cookie dough is the perfect paring of flavors with popcorn and fuzzy blankets. Just press “continue watching” and begin devouring.

2. Boys and Chunky Monkey

Sometimes boys are dumb and mess up your life. This is the perfect reason to not only eat Chunky Monkey, but really embrace the Chunky Monkey persona. Maybe you should throw a banana at the boy that messed your life up. Maybe you should not shower for a couple days. Or maybe you should just eat Chunky Monkey and know you’ll feel way better and more rational after you finish the container.

3. Exercise and Chocolate Fudge Brownie

Ten minutes of working out deserves ten minutes of chocolate indulgence. Ten squats is equivalent to 10 spoonfuls of gooey fudge. Ten calories burned has earned 10 ounces of ice cream. Sweat out your stress and scoop in the chocolate.

4. School and Hazed and Confused

When you’re dazed and unamused, eat some Hazed and Confused. Chocolate, hazelnut, and fudge chips will get you through a long night of studying and doing busy-work papers. Had a presentation and test in one day? Failed your first college exam? Eat some Hazed and Confused. You’ll do better tomorrow.

5. Boredom and Save our Swirled

Raspberry, marshmallow, and dark and white fudge swirls are the perfect solution for when you just can’t think of anything to do with your life. The fruit aspect of this ice cream flavor will really get the brain juices flowing. Maybe you’ll even think of something to do like save the world or cure some diseases. Or maybe you’ll find the motivation to stop watching Netflix, get over stupid boys, run a few miles, and ace your next exam -- after you finish this tub of ice cream, that is.

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.
