G2:"He's Mark, he's cool."

G1:"Who's your favorite superhero?"

Mark:"Uh Matilda?"

G1:"He's cool, he's cool"

Sword in the Stone (1963)

I remember watching this movie sooo many times during my LatchKey program after school in elementary school. One of my favorite 2D animated film of all time.

Matilda (1996)

I used to watch this movie on repeat for hours at a family member's house every single time I went over for years. I'm 100% sure this is where my Danny Devito obsession stems from.

The Princess Diaries (2001)

Giphy

I remember wishing my name was Mia because of this movie and ever since I've loved Anne Hathaway, too. Speaking of Anne…

Ella Enchanted (2004)

I would laugh at this scene so hard, I mean I still do now.

Giphy

Just like our lead lady from the last movie, I watched this one on VHS. I would watch this movie and screech to "Somebody To Love". Ah and this is where my Queen affinity began!

Black Cauldron (1985)

Gurgi always made me a bit uncomfortable in this movie and especially the whole apple part, but I still loved this movie for one of the most underrated era's of Disney history. So many amazing movies came out during this time. Don't even get me started about .....

Alice in Wonderland (1951)

I remember vividly the story of "The Walrus and the Carpenter" from that movie more than anything else. I'm not too sure if that is because it was traumatic or what, but I do know I loved this movie. Now I know the dark sides of the original story and even Lewis Caroll himself which only makes me curiouser and curiouser.

Treasure Planet (2002)

Giphy

Remember a movie or two ago not to get me started about this era in Disney? Well, I was already ready to go. I believe this is the most underrated animated movie in Disney history. This whole movie was adapted from a novel written in 1883, to a time period years a head of ours and maintains the main themes in a fresh perspective exquisitely. On top of that, no other animated film can compete with the complex animation and the vivid detailing/coloring at the time and it still looks pretty good by 2019 standards.

If you want to listen to someone else rant about it or even find out what I'm talking about, there's a great video that BREADSWORD put together here.

AI music threatens creativity

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.
