There's One Emoji We Desperately Need And Have Been Needing For A Really Long Time

Dear Apple, I know I'm not the only one thinking this.

For those of us that own iPhones (sorry Android peeps), iOS 12.1 was just released. And with that comes a brand new batch of emojis. It's always exciting, and frankly, it's one of the only reasons I feel like updating my phone.

Of course, when I open the emojis tab on my keyboard, I always get slightly disappointed by one thing...where are the emojis that I actually really need?! Like, yes, I LOVE the swan emoji and I definitely needed that because I love swans dearly. But Apple almost hit the mark with their newest emoji collection...almost. What exactly is Apple currently missing from their emoji roster?

The white heart.

That's it. This is literally the one emoji we've (and by we, I mean really just me) been begging for this whole time. Do you know how useful a white heart emoji would be for everybody?!

Seriously, a white heart emoji. It would go SO well with the black heart emoji we have already (and you readers must know already how long we've all been wanting black hearts). We already have every single color of the rainbow, so what the h*ck is taking Apple so long? Like...Apple, wyd?

It's not hard, people. Just make a heart emoji...and make it white. I'm tired of having to use this "♡" all the time. I want to be able to express my love in a whole new way. I want to be able to use a heart that's considered soft and sweet. Not that this "♡" isn't as effective, but can you imagine going into your emoji keyboard and seeing a beautiful, delicate white heart emoji?

Seriously, Apple. Hear me out. PLEASE make a white heart emoji already. Everyone will love you for this. I will be the spokesperson for the white heart emoji if you need me to. Just PLEASE include it in 12.2, or even sooner. You can thank me later.

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.
