I Love Birth Control
Eli Rallo, a writer, podcast host and content creator, is my TikTok god, my Carrie Bradshaw if you will. If she writes a book, I will read it. If she publishes a video, I will watch it. This article is not about Eli Rallo; rather, it is about the subject of a series of videos she published, which is of extreme importance. Rallo posted a video discussing her promotion of an over-the-counter birth control pill. In the original advert, she mentioned her love for birth control.
Unhustle Your Hobbies
We live in a world where side hustles are encouraged, praised and increasing in popularity rapidly. In 2019 alone, over 57 million Americans (35% of the total workforce) had turned to freelance work to cushion their incomes. Since COVID-19, this number has increased rapidly.

Have You Ever Wondered Why Are Humans Drawn to Beauty?
I spent my childhood years in a naturally beautiful place: the Pacific Northwest of the United States. My parents loved the outdoors and frequently took our family on trips to see the mighty Pacific Ocean or the majestic volcanic peaks of the Cascade Range. At times, even as a child, I would sit quietly contemplating and reveling in the overwhelming beauty I encountered. It was difficult to put into words as a child, but I felt as though beauty meant something and that it was something good.
Have You Ever Wondered Why Humans Are So Curious?
My father loved cosmology. He often shared with me his wonder at the vastness and complexity of the universe. I remember how he particularly loved to share lunar and celestial events with me. Once, he woke me up in the middle of the night to watch a meteor shower from our back porch. He brought out two lounge chairs and some blankets, and we watched the bright, burning rocks soar through the night sky commenting on their brilliance.

This was the mantra that played in the background of my mind when I struggled with the judgmentalism and hypocrisy I saw within the church. Do I really believe in God?
Manti Te’o and the Trinity
By Jerry Walls The Manti Te’o saga is one of the most extraordinary stories I have ever heard, and as a proud graduate of Notre Dame and a heavily invested fan of the Fighting Irish, I make no pretense to be an objective observer.
