10 Reasons You Might Fall For JJ MORE Than John B On Netflix’s 'Outer Banks'

By now, you've already binged Netflix's "Outer Banks" at least once — if not more (and if you haven't, you should go do so immediately).

And while most people watching instantly gravitated toward falling in love with John B, there are some people who couldn't help but find themselves loving his best friend, JJ. This is because JJ is the perfect combination of broken, hot, stupid, caring, and authentic. Watching him make decisions is like watching a train wreck happen in slow motion — it's brutal, but you can't turn away.

Here are 10 reasons you might find yourself loving JJ even more than John B:

1. You love guys who might ruin your life.

You all know who you are.

2. You think a guy holding a gun is hot.

3. You have a soft spot for blondes.

I mean, just look at that HAIR.

4. You're a true Pogue at heart.

Sure, John B is a pogue too — but something tells me JJ would never EVER fall for a Kook.

5. You love to fix broken people.

Every time JJ had a good emotional breakdown, you wish you were there to hug him.

6. You like to party.

Look me in the eyes and tell me you didn't want to be in that $25,000 hot tub drinking champagne with ya boy.

7. You love guys who don't give a fuck.

If you've ever said "YOLO" unironically, JJ is your cup of tequila.

8. You love guys who will do anything for their friends.

JJ taking the fall for Pope had you swooning.

9. You are attracted to people who take chances.

10. You love a good underdog.

At the end of the day, it's just hard not to root for good things to happen to JJ.

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.
