Do you feel a chill in the air? That’s not the changing of the weather — it’s Scorpio season. Even if you’re not well-versed in astrology, you’ve probably heard of Scorpios. Often thought to...

Spooky season is in full swing, so it makes sense that my playlist is skewing slightly more morose. In my experience, Halloween tends to be more fun in theory than in practice, but that doesn’t mean...

Do you ever find yourself wishing for a simpler time? I know I have. In an attempt to capture the spirit of a less tumultuous era, I’ve been listening to some of my favorite early 2000s jams. While certainly...

Lately I’ve had the feeling that the world is on the brink of destruction. Can’t imagine why. The world may very well be crumbling around us, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t enjoy the simple...

I’ll say it: Geminis get a bad rep. Even if you’re not super well-versed in astrology, you probably know that they have a reputation for being “two-faced,” which seems like a boring summation of...

It’s Taurus season. Don’t mistake the lack of an exclamation point as boredom, I’m just trying to evoke more chill energy; it’s Taurus season after all. Unlike its predecessor, Tauruses are known...
