It’s Cup or Bust for the Bruins After an Exciting 2020-21 Regular Season
June 24, 2021
The 2020-21 regular season was one unlike any other in the history of the NHL: a shortened 56 game season, realigned divisions based on geography, and with little to no fans in the stands. The Boston Bruins had plenty of questions to answer as well. How would they deal with the loss of their captain of fourteen years, Zdeno Chara? Could they find enough depth scoring? Could they withstand the East division, largely considered the toughest in the league? It was not an easy season for Boston. Incredibly, they had to use thirteen different defenseman due to injuries. At one point, they were also down to their third and fourth string goalies. But truly, there was never any doubt among Bruins fans that their club was going back to the postseason.

October 2, 2021
As the school year begins, summer anthems will be replaced by studying playlists, but one group is not ready to part from the fun quite yet. On September 2nd, the pop group ABBA announced their reunification and the plan for a concert and an album. The news was very well-received, but shocking nonetheless, considering the group’s reluctance to collaborate since taking a break in 1982.

In the last decade, social media has managed to redefine countless aspects of our life before technology—two of which being the modern celebrity and news consumption. The 21st century has given way to the age of the internet influencer, and platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, and Tiktok have granted personalities the ability to gain massive traction seemingly overnight. Young, conventionally attractive, and nearly always white individuals—who aren’t necessarily revered for their awareness or intellect—suddenly have access to an audience of millions. The same dynamic applies for large-scale social movements on the internet; evidence spreads and headlines break faster than ever compared to decades past. Disagreement arises, which puts the proper intersection of influencers and news into question.

June 22, 2021
Each June, people around the world gather for Pride Month, a celebration of the progress the LGBTQ+ community has made in achieving fair and equal treatment, both under the law and in terms of societal acceptance—but more importantly, it’s a fight for the rights we have yet to be granted. The occasion originates from the 1969 Stonewall Riots, a movement against the brutalization and targeting of the community by New York police forces, establishing its legacy as a revolution first and foremost.
