Original Title: Tavi Gevinson

Original Publication Date: September 27, 2014

Hi everyone! Just wanted to quickly share this video of fashion blogger turned actress and overall Renaissance Woman Tavi Gevinson being interviewed for CBS Sunday Morning. I've actually read her blog and website a few times and it's really good. Reading about Tavi and seeing her on youtube videos just makes me want to keep blogging and working on my writing.


You can also check out her blog and website.

Also, if you have yet to purchase my book "Mele the Mermaid," you can do so here. If you already own a copy then maybe you could purchase it for a friend, family member, or other loved one for their birthday, upcoming holiday, or just a random event.

Using Imagination to Accept Facts

I read an article recently titled “18 Really Toxic Things People’s Family Members Had the Nerve to do at Thanksgiving Dinner.” Basically a bunch of people contributed to the article and described insane things happening at their Thanksgiving dinner, ranging from simple etiquette blunders to family members having affairs. I browsed the comment section and saw that one person posted, “None of these are true. #3 is among the fakest thing I’ve ever read. If you believe any of this I honestly think I could convince you to eat a rock.” I on the other hand thought, “Yeah, I could see any one of these incidents happening.” I feel that sometimes people have a hard time believing things that are true because they have no real experience with what’s being described. For example, one of my favorite books that I’ve read in the past couple of years has been Tara Westover’s “Educated: A Memoir.” It’s gotten mostly universal praise, this tale of a young woman who went from being in an abusive ho

Me vs. Cracked.com

Hey everyone! Hope all of you are doing well! I know it’s been a bit since I have written in my blog. Been kind of busy, between my job, working out, and of course putting the finishing touches on my new book, “ The Princess of Infinite Tomorrows: Child of Prophecy.” If you haven’t checked out my new novel yet, feel free to do so (hint hint, wink wink). Anyway, here is my latest blog article and thoughts about life in general.   I’m not really a big fan of the website cracked.com. I’ve enjoyed some of their articles but in the past few years or so I feel that the writers in general try way too hard to sound edgy and cynical. I’m not saying that it’s necessarily bad to write something edgy or cynical, but oftentimes when I have read the articles on cracked.com, I feel that they often try way too hard. Also there have been multiple times in which I have found that facts touted in the site’s articles are often just plain wrong.   One of the articles cracked.com posted is titled, “9 Lame H

The Jetsons' Car That Turns Into a Suitcase

Image
  Back in the 1960s, a lot of people thought we’d have flying cars by the year 2000. It’s 2020 now and we’re probably still a little ways away from flying cars. I’d love to see them come to fruition at some point in my life, although realistically I think the automobile industry should first focus on making vehicles much more energy efficient, and perhaps also self-driven. Flying cars have been a staple in science fiction for decades upon decades, but perhaps they’re most famous in the classic cartoon “The Jetsons.” I was just looking at the opening of “The Jetsons” on youtube and there are a couple of things I noticed. One thing is that while it still looks futuristic, stylistically the animation feels very much like the 1960s. This is pretty common in science fiction, for the style to look like the era it was made in, or for people to look and behave like people from the era the series or film was made in rather than the future. If you watch “2001: A Space Odyssey,” the clothes t
