Hot: Making Resolutions
The time of year to set goals you’ll soon give up on is here! But really, take this new-found energy and make some changes — hit the gym, dye your hair, go to therapy… The possibilities are endless! — Cale Crueger
Hot: Crocheting
This winter learn to crochet and you can stay cozy with homemade hats, scarves, gloves and sweaters. So turn on a podcast, curl up with a blanket and crochet away. It’s easier than knitting. — Shelton Bowman
Meh: Free-skate at the rink
There’s somehow always some child that’s way better than me, and that’s annoying. They can’t do division yet, but they dust me every lap while I look like Bambi on ice. They’re way cooler than me, and it’s embarrassing. — Braydon Iverson
Meh: Houseplants in dorm rooms
Adding greenery to the otherwise plain dorm seems like a great idea until the windowsill is clogged by dying vines and you have to dodge stray leaves whenever you work at your desk. The splash of color is worth it, though. — Emma J Nelson
Not: Florida tiger killing
Law enforcement killed a tiger after it attacked a man who tried to enter its enclosure. Killing already-captive animals for acting on their instincts places the blame on the animal and not the reckless actions of people. — Caitlin Tapia
Not: The New Year
Earth has completed another arbitrary revolution, and folks I’m sorry to report, it still feels the same. We all have the same dietary habits and character flaws, and probably have not felt a good emotion since circa 2019. — Porter Wheeler
