What's In A Name? The Enduring Language Of Bias
The language we use to speak and to write is not accidental. It is the essence of our identity - a powerful indicator of who we are, and what we stand for. Language defines us, as it shows how we see ourselves. We will only ever use words we are completely comfortable with; the words that come easily to us without thinking; the ones our family and friends use; the words that tell where we are coming from and where we are going. Thus the language we use identifies us and our mindsets, revealing what we value and care about by the specific words we choose to utter.

Water Only diet
Have you ever heard of something called water fasting? Well, it’s a type of fast that restricts everything except, well, water. Most people only water fast for 72 hours at most, but what if you did this for the rest of your life? You’d be fine, right?

How to Critique a Blog Post
A blog critique is a written evaluation of a blog post. It can be used to improve the writing, content, or design of the blog post. When critiquing a blog post, it is important to be constructive and specific. The goal is to help the author improve their blog post, not to tear it down.

I’ve Never Met Anyone Quite Like You
“Phenomenal” - ★★★★ Queer stories are finally being told at an increased rate. More films, tv shows and theatre are producing stories based on LGBTQ+ issues that are an essential lifeline for queer people to watch, be involved in, relate to, highlight issues the community faces, and provide a safe space where there otherwise may not be one. The Edinburgh Fringe has for many years now been a safe space for shows on a whole host of different cultures, and a place for the LGBTQ+ community to provide accessible productions for the mixing bowl of different people that make up our society.

'This Side of Paradise'
Here is a critique of a classic novel that I just finished about a week ago. The name of the novel is 'This Side of Paradise'. The author is quite famous for a lot of his work. His name is F. Scott Fitzgerald. My idea is to start reading or even re-reading and offering reviews and critiques of my collection of classic novels that I have bought over the years.

Grand Theft Auto : Vice City
This iconic video game from every 90s kid’s childhood, set in the Miami-inspired Vice City, follows Tommy Vercetti’s rise to mob boss. With Ray Liotta voicing the franchise’s first speaking protagonist, an 80s backdrop, a killer music score and unique missions, GTA Vice City has stood the test of time.

The Dangerous Relationship of Romeo and Juliet
William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is a tale as old as time; everyone loves a story of forbidden love. However, everyone should not love how little Romeo and Juliet value themselves individually. This toxic overreliance on another human being is not the foundation that love should be built on, Will.

Unforgiving- Alien Weaponry
I hate to admit that the first time I heard Unforgiving was in concert. The first time was surreal, as I stood next to my brother, who I nearly lost the previous year. Little did I know a year later, this would be my comfort song when my grandmother passed.

Man In The Box
Man In The Box has always been my favorite Alice In Chains song. Perhaps because I’ve often felt that I’ve been trying to escape the box that people are always trying to paint me into. Most definitely it has something to do with Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell’s vocal styling.

In the Mix with YouTube
Music mix channels are some of the best parts of YouTube. They keep you company when writing or studying. They’re great for finding new music, without having to dig through tons of other channels, or Spotify. It’s often the best part of my day to put music on and write.
