If you’re the kind of person who watches anything remotely scary through the lens of your interlaced fingers held over your eyes, then “The Black Tapes Podcast” will scare the shit out of you, in the best way possible. It’s a “Serial”-esque docudrama investigation into various paranormal disturbances, led by an endearingly earnest reporter, Alex Reagan, […]
Something pretty much every person of color ever has probably heard at some point is that everyone from their continent is/looks the same. As a Chinese American, I can vouch for the frequency with which me and Asian people in general are just lumped together into a single group, and I would imagine that everyone from […]
In case there was any doubt about it, I’m a big-time feminist. I will rant and rave for hours about feminist theory, problematic “feminist” celebs (looking at you, Meghan Trainor), and how the patriarchy has wronged every single one of us. One actually kind of controversial view that I hold (and will defend until the […]

If you’re like me, still singing “A Whole New World” into your hairbrush while you twirl around your room like a seven-year-old, hold on to your magic carpets, because this is freakin’ amazing. Lea Salonga, the Broadway legend who was Princess Jasmine’s singing voice in the Disney classic “Aladdin” 22 years ago, teamed up with Il […]
