Halloween Special: Why Harley Quinn and the Joker are NOT “Relationship Goals” . Content Warning.
Trigger Warning: This article discusses emotional, physical, and psychological abuse.

FEAR IS THE VIRUS: How Narcissists Try to Hack Your System
Imagine, for a moment, that your body, your mind, your very emotional operating system is a pristine, high-end laptop. Sleek, efficient, fully updated. You take care of it. You keep it charged. You even splurge on antivirus software now and then – self-care routines, therapy, meditation, that sort of thing.

Disney’s New Tween Era Glows with Millennial Nostalgia: “Electric Bloom” & “Vampirina: Teenage Vampire”
The Disney Channel has always been a network I could count on throughout my life. From watching Lizzie McGuire with my friends in high school because Aaron Carter was guest-starring, to belting out songs from High School Musical with my sisters well into our twenties—Disney always hit the mark. Sure, I wasn’t always the intended age group for their shows, but they never failed to put a smile on my face. One thing’s for sure: Disney has a knack for spotting talent and turning them into stars.

Reviewing "9-1-1: Nashville" Following Their Series-Opening Arc
I have really enjoyed the 9-1-1 franchise for nearly a decade now, and of course, I got into this because I've been a Ryan Murphy fan ever since Nip/Tuck. It's hard to believe that the original series is in its ninth season, having premiered during the heart of the 2017-18 TV season; originally on Fox before making the move to ABC during Season Seven. The original series takes place in Los Angeles, while the first spinoff, 9-1-1: Lone Star, took place in Texas, and just recently ended its run.

Shadow the Hegdehog Got a Trademark?
I can't believe it, October 8. (Yes, I know it's been a while) It was confirmed that Sega got a new trademark for my favorite red-and-black hedgehog shadow. I am so excited. But what can the trademark be for? Could it be for a new video game or a remake of the first in 2005? There wasn't much good feedback on it. But if there is one thing I do hope they use the trademark for, it is for an animated feature film.

The Punisher’s Skull Has Been Hijacked. Content Warning.
Trigger Warning: This article discusses violence, vigilantism, and extremist ideology. Frank Castle’s white skull emblem, adorning the Punisher’s chest, is one of the most misinterpreted and misappropriated symbols in comic book history. Marvel’s tragic antihero, the Punisher, is not meant to glorify lawlessness or authoritarian revenge; instead, he serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of an individual's moral code overriding the very concept of justice.

"Beyond the Gates" Week 31 Review
As Beyond the Gates progresses, the angles get more and more wild and unpredictable. If you had asked me this time a year ago, before this show was even promoted for a premiere, if I would be into any soap this religiously, I would have shouted a resounding "HELL NO!" I had made my feelings about soap operas very clear, and then Beyond the Gates changed the game. I said many times that the soap genre needed this badly. See how much less over the top this soap is compared to others? There's a reason for that; I'll let you figure that out.

The Breakfast Club and St. Elmo’s Fire: Two Essential 80s Movies That Defined the Brat Pack’s Rise and Fall
I. Introduction: The Label That Stung We all remember the films. They were the cinematic bedrock of Gen-X adolescence: stories about finding your place, ditching the squares, and navigating the horrifying emotional landscape between high school graduation and paying your own rent. But here’s the thing: most of us only remember half the story.
