External pressure to publish is a huge weight for many academics and directly contributes to “publish or perish” culture — the notion that if researchers don’t pump out papers, they will be fired or discredited.
This demand can lead to unethical decisions, such as falsifying data or cherry picking results.

The gaming industry has been blown to pixelated bits.
It’s not because of its games. It’s not the expensive, downloadable content or DEI controversies.
It’s how the industry is treating its workers — the very talents who make the games we know and love.
A shift is occurring not just in the Kennedy Center, but in the way our politicians interact with art and culture at large. Already, we can see the ways in which conservative media — mainly through podcasts and sports — have influenced swaths of young adults.
The sheer power of the see-through dress has kept this controversial yet popular trend relevant for centuries. Whether you’re a fan or not — I am definitely an admirer — there’s no denying that the “naked” dress never fails to make a statement.
Xiaohongshu, also known as RedNote, faced a mass migration from “TikTok refugees.” The Pinterest–Instagram love child that my Chinese immigrant mother uses everyday was suddenly the most downloaded app in the West.
Burnout is not a hero’s tale of necessary sacrifice. It is an alarm bell that the harm of our hard work exceeds the benefits.
It is a desperate signal from the body that the scales of work and rest are unbalanced. Symptoms of burnout can include poor sleep, headaches, digestive issues, muscle pain, difficulty concentrating, irritability and a weakened immune system. If taken without context, these symptoms could be easily mistaken for a health condition.
Access to equal rights has always been controlled by those with wealth and privilege, so it’s ironic that the SFA uses the term “fair” in their title.
History has undeniably been unfair to certain groups, and although affirmative action is not a perfect solution, it was designed to help level the playing field. While many want to believe individual success is purely merit-based, claiming that white success bears no benefit from racial factors is absurd.
The trade wasn’t just a blockbuster, it was an unmitigated disaster. Fans scrambled for the right analogy — I think it’s something like trading a Lamborghini for a Honda Civic.
We always knew a new administration would mean rapid changes — that’s how politics works, right? We’re stuck in a pendulum swing between Democrats and Republicans, each racing to outdo the other’s policies and tip the scales their way.
We instead must find authenticity in our narratives, instead of scraping for diversity that never even existed. Maybe then — finally — we can believe equality is more than a political agenda.
The Grammys are still recovering from years of controversy, chief among them their seeming inability to recognize the diverse range of artists that dominate the popular music scene. Beyonce, one of the central figures in the popular music scene for over a decade, has been overlooked in this category time and time again, which perfectly encapsulates these issues.
Smoking and high fashion have always been deeply intertwined. From paparazzi photos featuring ‘90s celebrities pairing vintage handbags with Marlboro Golds to modern campaigns sporting them as the season’s chicest accessory, cigarettes have been a recurring prop in fashion’s visual language.
