I am a person that definitely enjoys great movies and television, but unfortunately I don't watch a ton of it. I mostly stick to watching my sports debate shows throughout the day, but I was still able to create a list of shows and movies that I've delved into the last 30 days. Here we go.

Dave

This is a brand new show on FX featuring Dave Burd, better known as Lil Dicky. The show is based off true events in Dave's life as he shows the journey of an aspiring white, comedic rapper in his late 20's trying to find his niche in the hip-hop world. This comedy features numerous popular rap artist from YG to Macklemore. The show is lighthearted, while still hitting on issues in today's society. Definitely one of my favorites right now.

Contagion

Had to recently check out this 2011 blockbuster as the world goes through a very similar situation. This movies focuses on a virus that ravages the whole world, sending everyone into madness and fear. A lot of parallels can be drawn between what is happening now and what happens in the movie. Definitely recommend if you are cynical like me, and aren't afraid to see the worst possible scenario of the situation we are currently in.

Power

One of my favorite shows ever. It was the final season of this incredible show and the ending did not leave me empty like Game of Thrones. The series concluded the journey in a way that felt fitting for each character's story arc as well as the arc for the overall show. The series ended with me having all my questions answered - the show thankfully didn't leave everyone on a cliffhanger. A must watch show if you like drugs and crime.

Rick and Morty

This may seem like a cop-out answer, but I can't help it. I'll watch this show at least once a week because I DO NOT CARE. The show is so funny, witty, and creative. Every time I re-watch it I catch something that I might have missed before or maybe a joke lands that previously went over my head. I can't get enough of Rick and Morty and I can't wait for more episodes.

Dragon Ball Super

Last on my list, but certainly not least is the king of all anime. The Dragon Ball franchise has been around since the 80's and is still going strong today. The new series has introduced new characters and story lines, while still keeping the same main characters from the original shows. Watching this new series instantly brings me back to my childhood - I catch myself screaming along with the characters attempting to go 'Super Saiyan.' I will never be too old to turn this one on.

AI music threatens creativity

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.
