Although I wouldn’t necessarily call myself a “hypochondriac,” I am a self-prescribed WebMD warrior. Each night I fall asleep thinking about a different ailment I might have, and each morning I awake to a Google search history full of medical jargon. The rabbit holes I fall down are astonishingly deep, so if there’s any specific audience this article needs to reach, that audience would be me.
I've always said we need a good-looking, young and witty presidential candidate to bring back the spark in American politics. While I thought this person would be Jack Schlossberg, it turns out it's actually Kamala Harris, which is slightly disappointing but nevertheless exciting.

Alas, gone are the sizzling hot days of neon lime green eccentricity. Yes, it’s true, “brat summer” is officially over. On Sep. 2, Charli XCX, the woman that started it all, put an end to “brat summer” on Twitter, saying “goodbye forever brat summer.”

The traditional college experience has been advertised to us through the media for a long time. No matter if it is "Pitch Perfect" or "Monsters University," it shows us that the highlights of our college days are characterized by big blowout parties, the social cliques of sororities and fraternities and mysterious drinks served to you in red solo cups.

September is Bisexual Visibility month, and as someone who identifies as bisexual, I’ve been thinking quite a bit about this idea of “visibility” and what it truly means. The queer community is often painted with one broad brush, especially in conversation with primarily straight people. This can give the impression that queerness is a monolithic experience.

Under Donald Trump’s vision of a Colorado town, Aurora approximately 70 miles from Fort Collins, violent crime by the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua rapidly spreads. Bigger than the gang’s arrested members and their past presence in an apartment complex, the town of Aurora has quickly become a national talking point in an aggressively anti-migrant and anti-immigrant agenda.

Most people remember playing with toys when they were kids. There are memories of brightly colored blocks being stacked, toy dolls going on action-packed adventures and coloring books with pictures colored outside the lines. Even the simplest things could be toys like paper folded into airplanes or fortune tellers.

For many young people, having sex is much easier than talking about it. It can often feel awkward to bring up sexual desires in conversation with a sexual partner or partners, but it is an essential part of developing a positive sexual relationship, not only with your partner but also with yourself.

Picture this: It’s 9 a.m., and you are walking to your first class of the day. The sun is out, but it’s still early enough in the morning that the heat won’t make you drown in a pool of your own sweat.

It seems that it is getting harder to compete with CU Boulder’s image. Last year, Boulder became the subject of mass media attention after hiring Deion Sanders, which shifted the public perception of CU as a whole. Initially, it didn’t seem as though Sanders would change a lot for Colorado State University other than the talent of our football competitors, until the rest of the nation started to take an extreme interest.
Where do I begin? The community you provide for students at Colorado State University is undeniably the best. With opportunities to go to the mountains, hang out in Old Town and even attend classes right in the heart of the city is amazing.

Jumping on TikTok trends? Not very cutesy, not very mindful — definitely not demure. The TikTok community has been buzzing since the term demure first made its debut, using it with every opportunity they get. While many find this trend to be entertaining, I find it rather irritating.
