What Your Favorite Jam Or Jelly Says About You
Today I Found Out

Recently, some friends and I got into a heated discussion over our favorite kinds of jams and jellies. It got me thinking about what everyone's favorite choices said about them, and as a jam connoisseur, I feel I am qualified to judge people based solely on their favorite fruit spread. I decided to make a comprehensive list so that you too can learn to judge people based on jam.

1. Grape

Grape jelly lovers are honestly the worst and most simple minded people you will ever meet. Grape jelly is fine when you are four and only eat dinosaur nuggets and PB and J, but as an adult, you should have grown to appreciate something a little more sophisticated. Grape is what you use when you wake up from a coma and wind up in a zombie apocalypse and it's all you can find to survive on. It should not be your go to.

2. Strawberry

At least you made the jump from grape. Strawberry jam is a great favorite, but again you should have grown up and moved on. Strawberry lovers are average and quite frankly a bit boring.

3. Blackberry

Blackberry jam lovers are going somewhere in the world. You are great people that strive to enjoy every part of life. You will not conform to norms. You are your own person, and you wouldn't have it any other way.

4. Raspberry

Congratulations! You are part of the group of the greatest people to walk the world. You have an energy about life and you are not afraid to show it. Raspberry lovers are social and brighten the lives of everyone who comes their way. They have a great taste in jams, and this shows in their everyday lives.

5. Orange Marmalade

Orange Marmalade lovers are as pretentious as they come. Don't get me wrong, a little orange marmalade between some french toast is a great brunch option, but if you are eating orange marmalade everyday then I can only imagine how haughty you are. I can just see your servants pulling out the finest china and polishing the finest silverware just to serve you your daily breakfast.

6. Petroleum Jelly

STOP! You should NOT eat this. No, there is definitely something wrong if you are eating this.


Side Note: I know I could have included Goober, but I prefer to pretend we live in a world where Goober lovers don't exist.

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.

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.
