Katseye’s Hootie Frutti is more than a $20 smoothie
Art by Rio Fisher Katseye’s newest single Hootie Frutti has been the subject of a lot of criticism regarding its strikingly chosen lyrics and unique music video, however, I would say that it is their best piece to date. As the third single from their EP Wild, Katseye’s highly socially aware management has produced a one-of-a-kind Marxist commentary on conflict theory. All their decisions, from the lyrics to the product placement, carefully create a social commentary on late-s

ChatGPT: A tool, or a cheat?
Art by Emaline Varava ChatGPT, founded by OpenAI in 2015 and released in November of 2022, has become a famous website worldwide. Whether you are a student, teacher, or parent, you’ve probably heard of it—or maybe even used it. The AI Chatbot can be used to create images, search the web, and can also be used to generate pieces of writing like a full essay. That leads me to the whole topic of this article: Using AI on assignments. It’s no shocker that some students use AI to

How does Eagle Rock celebrate the holidays?
With a place as diverse and interesting as Eagle Rock, there's bound to be differences. One of which is how we celebrate the holidays! When I was talking to my friend, I realized that everyone celebrates differently; for instance, she eats grapes on New Years, and I eat oranges. Therefore leads me here, so I asked ERHS how they celebrate the holidays! Here's what they said: Emily Nava-Martinez 10th grade “I open Christmas presents at 12 am on the dot.” Victoria Rueda Torres,

Art by Zazie Pritchett-Sidle Case Opened: October 2025 Subject: The Origins of the Unluckiest Day Setting the Scene Every year the calendar hits that date- Friday the 13th- and suddenly everyone's a little more cautious. Elevators skip the 13th floor, airlines avoid the row, and horror franchises cash in on superstition. But where did this fear come from? Let’s reopen the file. Exhibit A: The Number 13 Across cultures, the number 12 symbolizes peace and order- twelve mon

A drive through Altadena one year after the Eaton Canyon wildfires
On January 7, 2024, the Eaton Canyon and Pacific Palisades wildfires left 12,500 families with no home, no possessions, and a neighborhood that would be forever changed. Now, the community has begun to turn the page and start anew. As I was biking through Altadena about a month ago, the rubble that had taken over the town was still evident, but there was progress made on the cleanup effort too. I found a resilient community of rebuilders that emanated optimism. In these sites

End of an Era: the release of a new docuseries chronicles the Eras Tour
Image credit: Disney+ Last month, the six-part docuseries The End of An Era, starring Taylor Swift came out. To see whether it really is the “end of an era,” I watched and reviewed all of the episodes. Here’s my quick take: Episode 1: “Welcome To The Eras Tour” The docuseries opens with the dancers, backup singers, and Taylor giving a pep talk before the show. Swift discusses the terrorist attacks in Vienna and the deaths of Swifties killed at a dance party. Episode 2: “Magi

Silksong and how game journalists affect gaming
Art by Simone Modina When Hollow Knight: Silksong hit the scene this September, it was one of the most hyped video game releases in History. While tens of thousands immediately began playing it, some of the first people to share their opinions on the game online were game journalists. Infamous in some more chronically-online circles, game journalism is how a large demographic of people hear about new games. When they speak, people listen, and they say that the game is too dif

A retelling of two classic Greek myths, “ young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and Queen Persephone ”, the show is a delight for both Greek mythology enjoyers and the general public.

Regain your honor, and watch Avatar: The Last Airbender!
As we grow up, we start to lose our love for cartoons and animated television—and that makes sense. We want to watch shows and movies that are in our age range and that we relate to. But I, for one, still love watching animated cartoons. And no, I’m not talking about Mickey Mouse Club House or Dora the Explorer . I’m talking about well-developed, nuanced, elaborate kids TV shows. There is one example that I always think of when it comes to profound television; Avatar: The La
