This misunderstood generation is supremely savvy and can be tremendously productive. It simply seeks different rewards from those of its predecessors. → Read More
Flexible work schedules and telecommuting are proving effective—if not essential—for recruiting and retention. You might consider condensing the week to four 10-hour workdays. → Read More
We all grew up watching the Disney classics (and if you didn't, then I feel sad for your childhood). As children, our logic and reasoning skills weren't fully formed yet and so we didn't notice the narrative incongruities and plot holes in our favorite childhood tales. My friends and I have made it → Read More
As a child of the '90s, I grew up loving — nay, worshiping — virtually every film in the Disney classics canon. There was a solid year-and-a-half stretch of my childhood during which I demanded to watch The Lion King one to three times per day. When … → Read More
I am as much of a fun as The Bachelor and The Bachelorette as your next girl. However, that doesn’t mean that I am not aware of the overwhelming cringe factor of the show. Let’s be real, we’re talking about a televised dating show where the contestants who do well are kinda famous once the show → Read More
The 2015 MTV VMA nominations dropped on July 21 and, as is the case every year, the VMA nominations are causing quite a stir. Nicki Minaj's outrage over her lack of VMA nominations (and the subsequent feud with Taylor Swift that resulted from said ou → Read More
Pixar’s latest film, Inside Out, is making waves not just for its monumental success but also because of its complexly layered, Aesopian-like tale that promotes emotional balance and self-acceptance. As a person who has dealt with mental health issues, it took me about two minutes of watching the → Read More
I’ve been a begrudging follower of The Bachelor/Bachelorette for longer than I care to admit. I say begrudging because, season after season, I grow weary of how predictable and formulaic the show has become. It’s rare that The Bachelor franchise gives us a character like Kaitlyn Bristowe who is so → Read More
Friends was a show that was full to the brim with big personalities and bold characters. Part of the reason that Friends has endured the test of time is because it is so easy to fall in love with the characters. Who could resist loving Chandler, Moni… → Read More
Another month, another $7.99, another show to binge watch on Netflix for 12 hours. Summer is always an exciting time for those of us who are rather inclined towards the entertainment industry. Summertime blockbusters are just one element of the summer to look forward to; we also have a whole influx → Read More
If I'm being honest here, I had no idea that Vanessa Carlton and Michelle Branch were separate people until a few years ago. They were both non-descript brunette women who sang songs that I'd force my mom to play in the car on the way to gymnastics p → Read More
Pixar is constantly pushing the limitations of technology and creativity with every new film they release. It's such a daunting task to create a film that is accessible to a younger audience and yet still engages and amuses the adult spectator. I was… → Read More
From an early age, I knew that if my mom said I wasn’t allowed to listen to something, it made me want to listen to the forbidden item even more. So imagine my surprise (and excitement) when my mom started to get uncomfortable with pop princess Britney Spears. The minute my mom put up a fight → Read More
If you grew up as an avid-movie watcher, you probably soaked up some unrealistic expectations along the way. Perhaps the thing we have the most unrealistic expectations about thanks to Hollywood is sex. Though some movies do a better job than others in accurately depicting what sex is actually → Read More
Lana Del Rey is the queen of all things sultry, the goddess of lust and angst. She occasionally throws in a bit about love but, for the most part, Lana Del Rey isn’t an artist who puts out songs you dedicate to your bae. The guy who got away or the bad boy who stomped on your heart, sure. But your → Read More
In a landmark moment, Caitlyn Jenner (formerly known as Bruce Jenner) is on the July 2015 Vanity Fair cover, and it marks a monumental step for the LGBT community. The outpouring of love and support for Caitlyn has been overwhelming and immediate from the onset. The process of coming out as → Read More
You learn a lot of things as a kid that go on to inform your adult decisions. Disney movies made up a large portion of my childhood education and Disney taught me one of the most important lessons there is: when all else fails, resorts to rampant idealism. Disney didn’t always give us the most → Read More
On May 19, Maroon 5 debuted their latest new single, “This Summer’s Gonna Hurt,” on the The Voice to commemorate the show’s eighth season coming to a close. As is the case with all Maroon 5 songs, “This Summer’s Gonna Hurt” is catchy as hell but it’s also a wee bit stranger than their usual → Read More
Is there any memory that is more representative of the early ’00s than driving down the road with the windows down, laughing with your friends as Vanessa Carlton blares from the speakers? This might come as a surprise to you, but Vanessa Carlton may have been crooning songs about John Mayer over → Read More
Monica Gellar and Chandler Bing set the standard for what I want out of a relationship. They showed us a working example of a beautiful (albeit fictional) relationship based on having and giving, and loving and receiving. Even before Chandler and Monica got together, Friends fans were ‘shipping → Read More
