If you haven't seen The Bold Type yet, go watch it now!

(You can binge watch it on the Freeform website.) It's an amazing new funny and relatable show that focuses on 3 girl friends that work together at a magazine, based on Cosmo - who doesn't love Cosmo?!

Their boss is none other than Jan Levinson! Okay, so she's not actually Jan, she's Jacqueline, who's way more of a likeable character, but still. Read on to find out why this show is a must-see.

1. Common fears

Kat accidentally tweeted something mean when she meant to text it to her friends to vent, and Sutton got caught in a lie by her boss.

2. Culture

The scene where a middle aged white guy harasses Adena on the street telling her to speak English, go back to her own country, and calls her a towel-head.

3. Sexuality

Jane has never been very active, Sutton was unsure of what their relationship really is, and Kat for the first time dated a woman. The season finale also deals with sexual assault, and one of the main characters reveals that they were a victim.

4. Dreams

Sutton turns down a high-paying job for a demotion in salary to work in fashion, while Kat continues to get promoted but isn't sure what her dream really is.

5. Friendship goals

Never have I seen on TV three girls be so supportive of each other. They fight, but make up quickly and never resent each other. They would literally do anything for each other, as made clear by the Yoni ball scene.

6. A great boss

Jacqueline pushes her employees to push boundaries and be real, and is so supportive. Anybody would love to have a boss like her.

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.
