Only 90s Kids Remember

For the past couple of years, there has been a running joke that all babies born between 1990 and 1999 are the only people who remember popular things from that time. This trend has taken to all social media platforms, including the infamous Twitter account that tweets out pictures of all the objects that supposedly "only 90s kids remember." Here are a few of popular 90s items that our childhoods were not complete without.

1. Wonder Balls

What could ever be better than eat chocolate and finding prizes inside?

2. Hit Clips

Even though they only played less than a minute of your favorite songs, Hit Clips were the original iPod and you wouldn't leave the house without yours.



3. Blockbuster

Before Netflix could stream movies right to your TV, you had to go to the store to rent them. And also rewind them before returning them. Because yes, you are that old that you were alive before you could watch a movie multiple times without having to manually rewind it.

4. The Original Flappy Bird

Just looking at this picture brings back memories of sitting in the waiting room of the dentist's office. This game always brought out your competitive side.

5. Push-up Pencils

If you lost one of these, you were out of luck.

6. Rainbow Click Pens

We all tried to click down multiple colors at once, subsequently breaking the pen and having to beg our parents to buy us a new one.

7. Tamagotchis

Taking care of one of these was your main focus in life...until they were banned from school and you were forced to neglect your babies.

8. Razor Cell Phones

Having one of these made you the coolest kid on the block.

9. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen Movie

Every. Single. One.

10. Fanny Packs

You were the most stylish kid on your school field trip to the zoo when you wore one of these...or so you thought. Sadly, fanny packs are making a comeback.

11. That's So Suite Life of Hannah Montana

Your every childhood dream fulfilled in one incredible television episode.

12. Slap Bracelets

Admit it, you felt like a total badass slapping one of these babies on.

13. Gauchos

These were your most comfortable pants. Unfortunately, they were also your ugliest.

14. Furbies

Your favorite furry friend.

15. Heelys

You know you wish you had a pair to roll around your college campus with.

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.

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.
