Cosmos and Manolo Blahniks. That's probably what comes to mind upon hearing "Sex and the City." But, since its premiere in 1998, this show has become so much more.

Not only did it dismantle taboos on female sexuality and showcase body positivity but it explored the powerful bonds of friendship amongst women. Four New York City friends, Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte, and Samantha confide in each other and share their experiences about everything from the people they date to health issues.

Whether one is a lawyer like Miranda or a columnist like Carrie, SATC features well-rounded protagonists who viewers can relate to. Grab a cosmo and enjoy this list of iconic quotes by these badass women that you'll never forget while dating.

1. "I drink coffee, have sex, buy pies, and enjoy battery-powered devices." - Miranda

2. "Maybe you're only allowed a certain amount of tears per man; and I've used mine up." - Carrie

3. 'I will never be the woman with the perfect hair, who can wear white and not spill on it.' - Carrie

4. "Hey d*ck-wad, I'm speaking!" - Samantha

5. "I want to enjoy my success, not apologize for it." - Miranda

12. "Beauty is fleeting, but a rent-controlled apartment overlooking the park is forever" - Carrie

13. "If I worried what every b*tch in New York was saying about me, I'd never leave the house." - Samantha

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.

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.
