Finding Herself Between Subway Stops
Manthatan Story The morning sun glinted off the glass towers of Manhattan even before Anika stepped off the subway. The city was already humming with life and noise and possibility. Every block felt like a promise waiting to be fulfilled. She had moved here from a small town in Texas with a suitcase full of clothes and an even bigger bag of dreams. Today was her first day at her new job at the publishing house just off Fifth Avenue.

Supreme Court Ruling on Tariffs Redefines the Future of Trade Policy
Supreme Court Ruling on Tariffs Redefines the Future of Trade Policy The Supreme Court decision on tariffs marks a critical turning point in the relationship between law, politics, and economic policy in the United States. Tariffs have historically been used as a strategic tool to protect domestic industries, influence foreign governments, and respond to global economic pressures. However, as tariffs increasingly affect consumers, businesses, and international relations, their legality and scope have come under intense judicial scrutiny. The Court’s ruling provides long-awaited clarity on how far tariff authority can extend and who ultimately controls it.

Word of the Day: 進捗
I came to school with a really heavy bag. I packed both of my computers in my backpack today. I guess I need to actually work too but I am just spending my time here for some reason. I am not getting financial aid, they keep sending me emails about that I made " changes " so I am like... ok I guess I have to handle it. It is very annoying. Hence why I am sitting here. My backpack is super heavy and I don't want to climb all those steps. I haven't eaten a lot lately. I mean I am happy I lost like 4lbs so that's good but, I am pretty miserable for the most part.

A Room where I Finally Met Myself
By Fatima Sami The door clicked shut, and for the first time in three decades, there was nowhere left to run. It was a modest room—four walls painted a shade of eggshell that seemed to bruise in the twilight, a single window facing an oak tree, and a silence so heavy it felt like a physical weight on my chest. I had spent my entire life avoiding this specific brand of quiet. I had filled my hours with the frantic hum of career goals, the static of social media, and the constant, exhausting performance of being "fine."

Fear of Being Seen
I’m scrolling through TikTok and video after video pops up: If you’re not doing this, you’re ruining your life. Another one: If people aren’t leaving a conversation obsessed with you, you’re doing it wrong. Misinformation is rampant. My life as a stay at home girlfriend. If you scroll past this you’re a terrible person. How to glow-up, how to get off your phone, how to start loving yourself, how to save Palestine. Scrolling through it I know the algorithm serves me as much as I serve it. The moment you create an account and start scrolling, it's like a newborn baby in your arms. Watching, reacting, learning from all your behavior and movements and storing it away so you keep coming back to hold it in your hands.
