Sometimes it’s all too much to commit to five seasons of some TV show that’s going to toy with your emotions and maybe get cancelled before you get to find out what happens to our heroes. Sometimes you want a self-contained story with a beginning, middle and end. Maybe even in that order. Sometimes you…

No matter what you went through last year, we can rebuild and regenerate. We’re a month into the new year, and those echoes of 2020 are still bouncing around our skulls and hearts. Lots of us thought we’d wake up in a new season of some prestige TV series, ready to start fresh plotlines, but…

Once again, the nation gathered to find out our favourite choons. And once again, it was a surprising mix of tracks, including heeeeeaps of Aussie acts (66 of them, to be specific). Triple J’s Hottest 100 is one of Australia’s annual unifying traditions, especially now it’s not on January 26 anymore. It brings together music…

The trailer of the two part special of Euphoria just dropped and my excitement can not be tamed. But before we get into it, no no I am not in Euphoria, but hey, Sam Levinson, if you’re reading this and you want another bad-ass Aussie to mix things up, DM me. I am going to…

It’s easy to get locked into your desk chair for long periods of time. Here are some ways to make sure you take a little break from your study. Just don’t go too far in the other direction – you still gotta smash through that work! The best way to have a break is to…

Learn it now so you can be ready for the next one… if there is a next one. (Nah, there will be.) The eyes of the world have been on the USA’s election, and it hasn’t been the easiest thing to understand. For starters, it isn’t like you vote either Democrat or Republican, and whoever…

Our monthly wrap-up of what’s been happening in the world. There’s water on the Moon Yes, you’ve read the title correctly – NASA’s Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) confirmed water on the sunlit surface of the Moon. That’s actual, legitimate water molecules we’re talking about here, not just ice. There have been murmurings of…

Even politicians are playing it… and they know how to be sneaky. Among Us has taken the world by storm, with its easy gameplay and endless finger-pointing. You gather a group of friends to do puzzle-based tasks on a spaceship to fix it up and win the game… but there’s a twist. One or two…

Rewarding yourself, or if we’re being more honest here – bribing yourself with snacks is a long-standing and reputable study hack. The idea is that after every paragraph or page you read, you will find a sour worm staring up into your tired eyes. You pick it up, dust the sugar off your stained-yellow textbook…

Learning is a tricky process with so many things to account for. It’s so easy to find yourself overwhelmed as you fumble your way through various textbooks, journals and crash course YouTube videos. You have things like time constraints to manage, resources to compete for and even biological issues such as The Forgetting Curve. While…
