When Adulting is Just Too Much

When we were younger, we wanted to be older.  Now that we’re older, we want to be younger, or at least still in college because that was a collection of years that will not count when we reach the pearly whites.  But let’s face it, we have to adult, even when it feels like it just too much.  Here’s a little guide to help you through the hard parts or the times that you just can’t… Breathe Breathe in.  Breathe out.  Take in this moment for what it is andRead More

A Night with Blade and Bow Whiskey

This week I was lucky enough to be invited to an exclusive tasting of Blade and Bow Whiskey at Acorn Restaurant in Denver. This award winning Kentucky whiskey is truly incredible, and one of the most delicious spirits I’ve ever had the privilege of tasting. You should definitely try some of this excellent beverage for yourself, so I thought I’d go ahead and share the recipes for the incredible cocktails I was able to try the other night. Find a liquor store selling Blade and Bow near you, and experience a wholeRead More

#WCW: Gillian Jacobs

-Gillian Jacobs- Instagram: gillianjacobs Twitter: @GillianJacobs Known for: Currently starring as Mickey in Netflix’s new comedy Love, previously starring in Girls and Community. – If you haven’t watched Netflix’s hilarious, touching new show Love, you should probably get on that. I missed all the hype leading up to Judd Apatow’s new series, but I happened to stumble upon it this week…and immediately binge-watched all ten episodes in two days. The show features excellent performances all around, but perhaps the most magnetic character of all is Mickey, the show’s messed-up-but-lovable female protagonist, played by Gillian Jacobs. As someoneRead More

SAN DIEGO, CA – If I’m sitting at my desk at 1am, clutching a coffee mug, it has to be January, and it has to be a night session match of the Australian Open. Indeed, it’s Federer against Djokovic, for the 45th time. #UpAllNight has become an annual tradition for me since I began following tennis in 2011. For two weeks out of the year, I forgo conventional Pacific Time Zone hours to indulge in all of the action of the tournament I love. But for the first week of thisRead More

Writtalin Artist Insider: Julian Calor

With electronic dance music (EDM) gaining popularity everyday, we see more and more would-be producers throwing their hat in the ring to compete with names like Calvin Harris and Avicii.

Calor got off to a hot start as his first single was released on EDM heavyweight Hardwell’s Revealed Recordings. Since then, nothing has seemed out of reach for Calor. The young DJ hasRead More

#WCW: Margaret Qualley

-Margaret Qualley- Instagram: margaretqualley Known for: Starring as Jill Garvey in HBO’s series The Leftovers. – The best show on television that you’re probably not watching is HBO’s The Leftovers. The Leftovers, which just finished wrapping up its second season, is massively critically-acclaimed, but hasn’t caught on with a large audience yet. Nonetheless, HBO thankfully renewed the show for a third and final season. I love The Leftovers, and I can’t recommend this fantastic show enough. However, if you need even more incentive to start this excellent series, Margaret Qualley could be yourRead More
Several notable black individuals in the world of Hollywood filmmaking have come out in protest against the 88th Academy Awards this upcoming February. Director Spike Lee will not be attending this year due to the fact that all 20 actors and actresses that have been nominated this year are white. “We cannot support it and [I] mean no disrespect to my friends, host Chris Rock and producer Reggie Hudlin, president [Cheryl Boone] Isaacs and the Academy,” Lee wrote. “But, how is it possible for the second consecutive year all 20 contenders underRead More
Decadence 2015
A hush fell right around 9:05 p.m. on night one of Decadence 2015 at the Spaceport stage. The anticipation in the air was palpable as eager ravers looked from the people in their groups to the stage, waiting. With the initial sound from the first song JackÜ played, came a roar that echoed through the massive hall on the top floor of the Colorado Convention Center. From that moment on, the set was a party. Heavyweight producers Skrillex and Diplo, who came together to form their massive side project JackÜ,Read More
The following article contains SPOILERS of ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens.’ Proceed only if you’ve already seen the movie, and if you haven’t what the heck is stopping you? If its $1 billion take is any indication, most of us have already witnessed the force awaken (maybe three times if you, like me, were alone this holiday season). For the most part, Star Wars: The Force Awakens seems to have done a great job washing out the bad taste left in our mouths from the much maligned prequels. The reviews have beenRead More

Celibacy, Drugs, and Rock & Roll

I’ve been here before; it’s an old familiar corner, an imaginary coalition — The Sad Girls Club. It exists solely for the sads that sprout from nothing. Pounding hearts, jaws that clench, minds barren of rational thought and practicality, as one cries as hard as the shower water comes down and tries to get it together enough to shave an armpit (or two). This exists in me and in the small veins in my temple, and the large veins in my opposite elbows, and it holds a weight that IRead More
