South Bay's Dirty Little Secret

6:49 PM



Despite being near Los Angeles, South Bay has become a hub of discomfort for the LGBT folks living here. Rampant homophobia is a problem that is rarely addressed, but it takes place constantly in our schools and work environments, as well as in everyday life. While this district often votes blue, the beliefs of those who live here lack the empathy that Democrats claim to have.

Ditch Your New Year’s Resolutions

5:56 PM

The prospect of a new year is exciting, invigorating. With a new year comes new opportunities. So in late December, you make resolutions. You ponder what your life could be, and this fantasy towers in comparison to how it feels right now. You make a promise, either privately or publicly, to be better in the new year. This is what I’m gonna do, you tell yourself, to make the new year great. These are my resolutions. 

Well, it’s a week into 2019. How are those resolutions holding up?
