The teenagers shown in Hollywood are far from realistic. They’re played by adults, written by adults, and designed for adults to watch. Although some of the most popular TV shows are about teenagers, they still aren't accurately portrayed. Shows like Outerbanks , Gossip Girl , or The Summer I Turned Pretty  are extremely popular, appealing to both adult and teenage audiences, but they misrepresent teenagers. The widespread lack of representation leads to stereotypes and insec

Throughout the course of a lifetime, people grow, develop maturity, and connect with many types of people. However, in the process of growing up, cycles end, leaving behind memories and people. Unfortunately, this makes the process even harder and often leaves us feeling guilty and lost, since letting go also means saying goodbye to special people . Some argue this is part of the process of growing toward a better life, and in my opinion, they couldn't be more right. Growing

From a young age, many are taught that accepting uncomfortable situations is a way to be polite.  But there's a crucial issue that often goes unnoticed: people are mistaking politeness for people-pleasing. True manners are rooted in respect, both for others and for ourselves. When passivity crosses the line into self-neglect, it opens doors for greater damage.

More than thirty years later, Vale Tudo  is back, and it feels like Brazilians have traveled back in time. The remake of the telenovela, aired by Globo since March of 2025, has been captivating both those who watched the original version and those who are discovering it for the first time. It is intriguing, but also remarkable, that a story created in 1988 remains so relevant in 2025. It makes us wonder: Why does a plot about power, ambition, and morality still hold our atten

Throughout the years, you’ve probably heard that the human body is fascinating. I’d argue that “fascinating” doesn’t do it justice. What’s most curious is that we don’t usually realize what’s going on beneath the surface, including the tiny systems, the strength, and the bizarre details that make us who we are. So, let’s take a moment to dive into five facts about the human body that’ll straight up blow your mind. Your ears (and nose) never stop growing.  Your ears get bigger

It is not new information that Israel and the Palestinian people have been in conflict, as their war has been going on for more than a century. The real question is, why? Why do they have all these violent conflicts? There have been a series of wars between Israel and Arab nations, with uprisings against Israeli occupations and crackdowns by Israel also taking place. These wars are based on disputes over land, borders, and rights. Before 1948, Britain took control of an are
