The cost of kindness
It is so much easier to be nice when you are rich because you have so much less to lose. Poverty creates need, and need creates desperation.
bts
On BTS, K-pop, and toxic fan culture
I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve heard people offhandedly refer to K-pop lovers as all “fangirls” or “Koreaboos.”

Head to Headboard: in defense (and offense) of SNL darling David S. Pumpkins

That was when I found out that sororities at UR don’t get houses — only the fraternities do.
academics
I’m a fraud, you’re a fraud, we’re all frauds!
Imposter syndrome is the college plague. Why is it so hard to feel like we’re in the right place, and that we deserve to be where we are?

Stare into the black void formed by our administration’s deafening silence.
