Reasons To Cry About The Gilmore Girls Revival
eonline

I'm sure a lot of people are tired of hearing about the Gilmore Girls revival coming out this November. I am not one of those people, and I will unapologetically keep writing articles and talking about this monumental return until the good Lord calls me home probably.

As most everyone knows, last week Netflix released the first official trailer for the four part revival. I am not ashamed to say that I have not stopped screaming and crying internally. The amount of times I have watched it is probably unhealthy, but everyone should be proud of me because I have yet to physically cry over it.

That being said, there are a lot of things to cry about in regards to this classic show's return. I'll just name a few for you.

1. Richard's death

Edward Herrmann was an iconic character in the show. He was smart and loving, and I have no doubt that I am going to cry endlessly with the three remaining Gilmore girls as the deal with his passing.

2. ALL of Rory's ex-boyfriends are back.

Dean. Jess. Logan. They're all back, and Amy has taken special care to reveal NOTHING about their current role in Rory's life. Personally, I (happy) screamed when Jess popped up on the screen during the trailer, frowned when Dean's too-long hair flopped into view, and returned Logan's smirk with one of my own because despite how wrong he is for Rory, I love his character.

3. Luke and Lorelai are back together

The season 7 finale left us all hanging. Yes, they kissed in the middle of the street, but so do lots of people in fiction that never end up staying together. Thanks to the released photos and now the trailer we have confirmation that the perfect duo is back together again.

4. April and Christopher have returned

I don't think I have ever hated two characters in a television show as much as I do April and Christopher. All they ever managed to do was mess everything up.

5. IT'S BACK

FINALLY, after long, long years of waiting, we get to return to Stars Hollow. It's a magical place with magical snow and magical Luke's coffee. All the greats are back: Taylor, Kirk, Michel, Sookie, and so many more. How can you not cry at the happiness that this brings?

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.
