Emily Fehrman on Jake Paul’s misinformed tweet claiming anxiety can be cured if you “chill your mind out” and “go for a walk:”

“I see ‘Sonic’ as a perfect example of video games in the 90s. They’re wild, full of bright colors and cartoonish enemies, and never take themselves too seriously. Once I heard they were making a live-action ‘Sonic’ movie, that’s what I hoped they would do with whatever story they got from the original game. For the most part, my wishes were fulfilled.” – By Caleb Spencer
“In the fall, I began my last year at HutchCC. I wasn’t thinking much of it, as to me, it was just supposed to be another year… I’m not gonna fall in love or anything, right?” – KJ Ryan
“KJ Ryan is the kind of guy that catches your attention from day one, but you can’t quite figure out why. Besides his bright red hair and contagious laugh, something about him had me interested. KJ is likely the funniest human being I have ever met. There’s always something weird or sarcastic or random that he has to say, and it comes as a shock every single time.” – Emily Branson
“All right, Valentine’s Day is in a week, which means it’s time to start thinking about what to get or do with your significant other. Or at least, that’s what society has told us is important in all our lives” – Emily Fehrman
