The term and concept of cancel culture have been so warped over the last couple of years that I’ve started to actively ignore discourse about the perceived merits and issues with this particular cultural phenomenon. The conversation has just devolved...

The political climate has been tense for a while. With everything that has been going on from COVID-19 to BLM to the 2020 election, America has never been more divided. There have been so many people vocalizing their opinions and attempting to make statements...

We have all heard to “wear a mask” in public. “Always wash your hands” and “social distance” when possible. I don’t know about you guys, but I definitely wasn’t expecting to hear that the mask mandate in Texas is being lifted by the governor...
