Dear Cookout,

Thank you for always being open whenever I needed you, which indeed has been 1 AM on weekdays.

Also thanks for being open on all those weird holidays. Now I can take one of my Tinder boys there on Presidents Day. Speaking of boys, I can’t tell you how many times I have very loudly sobbed over one of those 40 delicious milkshakes in the middle of your lobby. The trays. This is the best thing I have ever seen. I can get a burger, chicken nuggets, hush puppies and a drink for less than $7. Seven. Dollars. That’s not even an hours’ worth of pay at my job. Who does that??? Y’all do. You’re the only place where I can just get a crap ton of sides for less than $6. You bet sometimes I just get an order of chicken nuggets. I really want to know how y’all make your fried foods so good. Is someone in the back dipping the hush puppies in heaven?? And the corn dogs?? How did you manage to get the breading so perfect?

Lets talk about the drinks, starting with the cups. It doesn’t matter what size anyone gets it is going to be the perfect ice to drink ratio. The best part of the cups is my drink never gets cold. I am not even a sweet tea person, but id get myself a large tea in a heartbeat.The best part about the inside is being able to wear whatever I want and no one will judge me. My roommate has worn everything between designer clothes to her pjs.I need to take a moment to talk about the drive thru. You have stepped up the game. Everyone is always so nice and you never forget my sauces.

Lastly I want to thank you for helping me make friends in college. Being the young one I often drove the crew to you when Saturday nights had gotten a little too turnt. This is how I bonded with all my friends. Food and friends is the way to go.

Love,

Shannon

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.
