The Power of a Kind Word
I remember it like it was yesterday, even though it happened over a decade ago. I was sitting in the back of the classroom, staring at the clock, waiting for the bell to ring so I could escape the monotony of high school. I was feeling particularly down that day, for reasons I can no longer recall.

Workin' It
Trixie Mattel and Katya Zamolodchikova are back! These hard working women have been pounding the pavement and making their way through the trenches of the professional world in order to bring fans a book dedicated to the ins and outs of the modern workplace. “Working Girls: Trixie and Katya’s Guide to Professional Womanhood,” is a hysterical and poignant take on a workplace self help book that shines with the comedic genius that each of these drag superstars are known for.

Genocide is Coming
The laws that are currently being passed in our country are no longer able to hide behind the notion of being, "for the wellbeing of the children." America was supposed to be the country that was based on the idea of being a melting pot where everyone could come and be welcome to be themselves. Now it seems that the only individuals that are being welcomed into this so-called melting pot are those that are approved by the people who would consider themselves the massive of this country.

The Secret to Finding Happiness in Life
As humans, we constantly search for happiness and contentment in our lives. We seek it in our relationships, our work, our possessions, and in many other aspects of our daily lives. But often, despite our best efforts, we find ourselves feeling empty and unfulfilled. We may even begin to question the purpose of our existence. It was during such a time that I discovered the story of the man with two gardens.
