World Cities Day, celebrated annually on October 31st, acknowledges the importance of urban centers in driving social, economic, and environmental change. These bustling hubs are crucibles of innovation and culture, often representing the very best of human achievement. And in this spirit, Abu Dhabi...

I had no intention of partaking in any of the guilty pleasures of Amsterdam. But after a few drinks and some persuasion from my travel companions, I thought: Well why the hell not? My pals and I gulped down our beer, and made our way down to the city’s infamous Red Light District. We j...

Amsterdam, a city known for its vibrant arts and culture scene, became the backdrop for a life-altering experience that would forever shape my aspirations and ignite a newfound passion for show business. The catalyst for this transformation? The electrifying and soul-stirring performance of none oth...

In Amsterdam, Netherlands rests a hidden gem that you simply have to experience for yourself. Opened by CultureSpaces on April 22, 2022, this art exhibition allows for onlookers to become surrounded by the works of many famous artists; Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet, Gustav Klimt and Salvador Dal&ia...

During our second week in Buenos Aires, we lived several aventures. On our second week-end in the city, we went and wandered through San Telmo, and la Boca, two of the iconic areas of Buenos Aires. San Telmo is known for being the home of tango, and is a very nice “barrio”. La Boca, w...

Why has a three-finger salute been adopted by protesters from Thailand to Myanmar? Why did rioters in Hong Kong carry bows and arrows as part of their lethal arsenal and famously declared “If we burn, you burn with us”? And why did the slogan “Hunger Games since 1994. Death to the ...

In the winter of 1981, I responded to a back page ad in Flipside, an independent zine covering the Los Angeles punk scene. The ad read: “Videographer needed to document local concert.” I’d spent several thousand dollars on a Panasonic video camera and was looking for ways to r...

They nest in the soffits, and in the spring squabbling families vie for space. When I’m laying in bed I can hear the pitter patter of feet as they run up and down outside the window. I never want the starlings to move. I find their company joyous and uplifting. Many times I’ve looked ...

My husband bought a flamethrower. It’s bigger than you’d use to caramelize a crème brûlée, but it’s smaller than Elon Musk’s Flamethrower of the Zombie Apocalypse. Our flamethrower is ostensibly to light the grill, but as Hubs says, “Do you really ne...

A bald, blue-robed monk with a megaphone in one hand was rattling away on the street in Japanese. I did not understand a word, but I knew exactly what he was shouting at passersby. The gates of Chion-in Buddhist Temple were about to open for the evening autumn light show, and he was shilling for the...

The core issue lies in the disconnect between the industry’s push for diverse representation and the actual tastes of mainstream audiences. Historically, most viewers have shown a preference for narratives that mirror their own experiences. This preference often puts shows with unique or speci...

To wield the gavel with which McCarthy famously threatened to hit Nancy Pelosi, with no consequences for the threat of violence because there are never consequences, McCarthy agreed to the “snap vote,” where one member can call for a vote to remove him from office. The media spin on this...

EEAO follows Evelyn, a first generation immigrant juggling a lot of personal issues. The laundromat that she runs with her husband Waymond is facing repossession by the IRS due to tax code violations, her estranged father has recently fallen ill, her marriage is strained and non-communicative, and h...

As a result, an exciting effect will occur: if the camera transmits typically, say, 25 frames per second, then as it approaches the black hole, we will receive fewer and fewer frames per second from the camera. In other words, the camera signal will experience gravitational redshift: the waveleng...

When Mr. Robot arrived on the scene in 2015, it was a revelation. I knew by the conclusion of its opening episode that I’d never seen anything like it. I’d never seen a show that felt so rooted in the real world. In that way, it’s a show that delves head first into a l...

The phrase “make yourself at home” is a common expression used to invite someone to feel comfortable and relaxed in a particular place. It is often used when welcoming guests to one’s home or office. The expression implies that the host wants the guest to feel as though they are in...
