Hallmark Movies Are The Best Movies, Don't Even

I know that they are lowkey-terrible but let me live my life.

I've written very much about Christmas and various other holiday's that I love over the months that I have been here. I'm also well aware that the people in my family and most of the people that know me are probably incredibly annoyed that I keep writing about these things. I have a brand, people! A brand! And when in doubt, I can always think about something Christmas or holiday related to write about even when there is nothing else going on. So, please leave me alone, if you feel like you would like to attack me on the amount of Christmas related things I write about.

Now that I've gotten that one out, I am going to move into my conversation about Hallmark Channel movies. I love them. So much. I understand that they are slightly terrible and have the same three storylines that can happen at any times, but they're just nice to watch. They're all light and fluffy and happy and sometimes happy is good. They're all just cute. Why can I not like cute things? I deserve the cute things. The cute things are lovely, especially around Christmas when the happy things are necessary.

Why would I not want to watch a movie like Christmas At Graceland, which starts Kellie Pickler, is literally about Christmas at Graceland, the home of Elvis Pressley, and is premiering on November 17th at 8pm/7c on the Hallmark Channel? Or maybe a movie about either a Christmas wedding being planned, an inn in a small town during Christmas, or about something more serious than that because there are TWO HALLMARK CHANNELS. One is devoted to the fluffy ones that I love, and another one where there is more drama! Two channels, everyone. There is something for everybody.



Hallmark Movies are a quintessential part of the Christmas season, if not, there would not be 400 of them for me to watch and other people would not be watching them too. I am vindicated in my love of these movies. They make me happy. I know they are dumb, but they are nice and everyone ends up happy, and everyone ends up in love! Why can't I watch the happy Christmas movies without judgment from the masses?

It doesn't matter. I am going to watch all of these movies anyway, and I will enjoy them.

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.
