**Contains SO MANY spoilers**

Jane the Virgin is in its fourth season and doing the most. The show has everything from romance, comedy, brutal crime, and extraordinary drama.

Jane Villanueva is the granddaughter of Venezuelan immigrants and is living in Miami, FL with her mom and grandma. At the beginning of the show, Jane is 23, in a committed monogamous relationship with a man named Michael, and still a virgin. In a crazy mix-up, Jane accidentally gets artificially inseminated by her (extremely attractive) boss's sperm. She ends up having the child but gets stuck in a love triangle in between Michael and her boss, Rafael, whose child she is having.

Through the seasons we are brought on a wild ride through drug trading, murder, telenovela (Hispanic soap operas) stars, and a lot of lawsuits. Even once the whole Michael vs. Rafael debacle was solved (Jane was happily married to Michael), they decided to KILL Michael off.

Almost a year after they showed the episode where Michael died, the most recent big event occurred. Jane's strong and supportive mother, Xiomara, has been diagnosed with breast cancer. But, the Villanueva/De La Vega family is handling it in the most supportive, positive way possible.

Jane the Virgin is more than a show about Jane and her son Mateo. Jane the Virgin addresses racism, misogyny, religion, and much more. If you haven't already, please do yourself a favor and watch this beautiful show.

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.
