This Anti-Trans Moral Panic Was Never About How We Define Gender
There's been a huge debate about the "transgenders" recently. I can hear the "just asking questions" starter pack now. Are trans women real women? What is gender? What is sex? Do we really need to respect these people who are changing the game on this thing that has always existed?

The Truth About the Trans-Agenda
With the Halloween season finally coming to an end, America must now prepare for the scariest season of all: Midterm Elections. The Republicans still celebrating their victory of abortion bans and the power to control over half the population on what they are allowed to do with their bodies, have continue to set the sights on the next target. Trans-rights. The reason behind the urgency to put a dead halt on Americans (particularly children) right to live authentically is to clash with the alleged “Trans-Agenda.” What is this “Trans-Agenda?”

Kit Connor Deserved Better
For the last few years, there’s been the debate of whether only LGBTQ characters should be played by actors who identify as such — this is a debate I have steered clear from as a writer, because I believe that an actor’s sexual preference or gender identity does not determine their acting ability or talent. Many LGBTQ actors have played heterosexual roles, the same can be said for straight actors playing a homosexual character, sometimes an actor happens to identify with their character’s sexual preference and sometimes actors are cast without their sexuality being a plot point at all.

Cultural characteristics of Australians
The first inhabitants of this vast continent are the aborigines, coming to the land some 40,000 to 50,000 years ago, and the scholars thought they may have crossed the land bridges from Southeast Asia. These people were mostly hunter-gatherers with a complex oral tradition and spiritual beliefs. The Aborigines were able to use and sustain the continent’s resources, concurring to stop hunting and gathering at certain times to give ample time to the resources and populations to flourish. It is believed that before the European settlement, as many as half a million to a million Aborigines lived peacefully. Today, an estimated 350,000 Aborigines are living on the continent.

3 Philosophical Questions We Should Ask Ourselves Regularly
Specifically because our time here among the living is by default limited, we should examine our lives every now and then, question our current progress (if we're making any), and see for ourselves through contemplation, whether or not our limited time here is being wasted or is being well-invested. As a matter of fact, even, what drove me to become a philosopher is to increase my productivity as a writer, something which was a good choice, when I look at it retrospectively.

Workaholism As Futile
One of the many flaws of our world is that it encourages us to be as much productive as possible, and which each advancement of productivity, we are often rewarded with either the good increase of our reputation, our own pride, or our motivation to maintain such productivity. However, with such promotion, a toll on our lives can come and make our own endeavours for productivity, to be counter-productive. It may sound like a paradox, that our very own efforts can to promote us can demote us, but in reality, that demotion is not a construct of demoting promotion, which does not make sense, but of mere obsession -- the obsession that regardless of what we do, nothing is yet enough, and hence the initial impression that it's a paradox.

Why Netflix Should Have Never Labeled 'Dahmer' An LGBTQ+ Series
Since its debut on September 21, 2022, Ryan Murphy's latest offering on Netflix has stirred up a lot of controversy. Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story sought out to tell the story of the notorious serial killer from the perspective of the victims and, with that, tell the story from behind a lens that we haven't really seen before. Lead actor Evan Peters even said in promotional content for the series that the show wasn't even about Jeffrey Dahmer, despite his name being in the title twice.
