    Half a Million Women, (Maybe) Ten Bathrooms: How I Ended Up Peeing in a Bag in Front of the Air and Space Museum

    January 27, 2017 /

    The night before the Women’s March on Washington Jan. 21, I sat with my mother and sister in our living room making picket signs for the occasion. My mom – the better artist – was putting the finishing touches on the globe she had drawn on my poster, which declared my reason for marching: Because I’m scared for our planet! “They’re estimating that 200,000 people will show up,” I said as I watched her handiwork. “But I think there are going to be way more.” As soon as we ascended the steps of the Farragut North Metro station in D.C. the following morning, my prediction was confirmed. The procession of…

    Lush, Shoegaze Comeback at Union Transfer

    September 29, 2016 /

    It can be easy to forget that shoegaze, the reverb-heavy subgenre of indie rock and neo-psychedelia was primarily a genre that thrived in the 90s. With its shimmery, fuzzy stoner aesthetic, it feels like it should be back in style. At least, I had a moment of confusion when I entered Union Transfer September 22 (my first time there) for a Lush show to find a crowd of people that all looked like they could be my parents. It was then that I remembered that before their 2016 EP, they hadn’t released any music since the 90s. It all made sense. Perhaps it is for that reason that a young…

    The Human’s Cry

    April 22, 2016 /

    No century’s visionaries could have foretold The pity and rainbows and men’s cries and gold For the cries we emit are only our own And just as they silenced the man praising God The will silence the woman with a cry of her own A cry which no one will understand until they have trekked Odysseys through her eyes and on her two legs, Starved for the love and starved for the justice, Screaming and crying in the undying cruelty of our age And in our own unforgiving realm, That which we created.

    Clarity

    April 22, 2016 /

    Discovering my name in clarity, And suddenly before me cavities of truth open and reveal themselves Slowly and yet with a thousand different forces; And as the first light ignites and illuminates the glory of the world which surrounds me, There is a serenity and a humming throughout all that is alive. My foundation is solid, My vision is sharp, My awareness is clean. I have found my name and my purpose. And with my blood and guts spilling over From my mouth and my eyes With all the purity that is left in me, And by eradicating all of the emptiness and hollowness that I have come to know,…

    Pizzaria Beddia: As Good As It Gets

    April 22, 2016 /

    Not being one for state pride, there aren’t many things that I miss about my home state of New Jersey. The traffic, the ‘tude, the smell, all stuff I can do without. However, since coming to Philadelphia, I’ve struggled to find a substitute for Jersey pizza. In my experiences, New Jersey pizza is exceptionally good, while Philadelphia pizza is…not. And this is quite the dilemma for me, because I love pizza the way Bernie loves socialism. So I was forced to suffer, only being able to enjoy good pizza during my brief visits home. That was, until I heard about Pizzeria Beddia. Back in June of 2015, food magazine Bon Appetit…

    Crystal Dreams: Out in Space

    April 22, 2016 /

    We know Philly’s not boring, especially when it comes to the arts. Philadelphia’s art scene prides itself on a diverse mix of styles and media, creating a vibrant atmosphere of local and underground creative people.  However, other than on First Fridays, how often is it that all of these diverse media outlets and artists come together to share their creative ideas amongst each other and an audience? Crystal Dreams, a new art collective, is starting with performance art and keeping Philly weird. This start came about on Thursday, March 10, 2016, in the Aux Gallery space at Vox Populiin Spring Garden, with a “Sci-Fi Spectacle.” This spectacle consisted of mostly drag and…

    Feelin’ Fishy With a Crunch

    April 22, 2016 /

    Good fish tacos aren’t always easy to come by in Philadelphia. Luckily, former Iron Chefand restaurateur Jose Garces has made it possible to get Baja Peninsula-inspired fish tacos not 15 minutes from Temple’s campus. On Callowhill Street, between 19th and 20th, Garces has a casual taqueria providing delicious tacos made with fresh ingredients. Buena Onda’s main attraction is fish tacos, both fried and grilled in a tequila lime glaze, as well as a special K38 pale ale on tap, made by Philadelphia’s Yards Brewing specifically for Garces’ restaurants. The tacos include mahi mahi or shrimp as well as land varieties carnitas, carne or pollo. In addition to the regular taco offerings, Buena…

    How to get a Guy in 10 days (on Tinder)

    April 22, 2016 /

    So, you know that movie with Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson where she works at a magazine and has to write an article about how to lose a guy in 10 days? I’m doing the exact opposite for Valentine’s Day. Now, I never thought I’d say this… but I’m on Tinder as of ten days ago. I don’t really believe in dating sites or dating apps. In fact, I have very little experience with dating in general, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I guess I was never attracted to the idea of meeting people online because it’s harder to get to know people that way. Also, I was…

    Why is Women’s Health Taboo?

    April 22, 2016 /

    arly in November, the campus was wet with rain. Temple students walked against the wind with their hoods up and heads bent down towards the puddles on the sidewalks. At the bell tower, in the midst of the bustling umbrellas hurrying to class, a group of students brandished banners and raised their voices: “Donate tampons and pads!” That’s right. These students called upon the people of Temple’s campus for donations of feminine hygiene products. Direct and determined they shouted: “If you have a uterus, you probably have a tampon or pad with you. Give us one!” These proactive students are members of the Feminist Majority Leadership Alliance, a club that seeks…
