April Harper Grey, better known as underscores, has a history of obsessing over musical perfection. Having produced music since she was 12 years old, she began her music career posting dubstep on SoundCloud, citing Skrillex as a major source of inspiration. She blew up upon the release of her first album, fishmonger, which appeared on The Atlantic’s top 10 best albums of 2021 and even caught the attention of Blink-182’s Travis Barker. Her second album, Wallsocket, an eclectic hyperpop, dubstep, pop-punk journey, was released with an Alternate Reality Game involving an intricate story about a fictional town, Wallsocket, Michigan. This project was also released to critical acclaim. The album was meticulously crafted, as can be seen in her lengthy livestreams explaining the production of the album.

I am a member of Cornell Courage, an alumni organization standing in opposition to Cornell’s $60 million settlement with the U.S. government. In a statement released after the agreement was announced, President Kotlikoff attempted to assure the Cornell community that “Cornell has not been found in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 in any of the investigations or compliance reviews of the university’s programs pending at the Department of Justice, Department of Education, or Department of Health and Human Services, and the government has agreed to close all of these investigations and reviews.” Anyone who read the settlement took note that President Donald Trump never agreed to close pending or future Equal Employment Opportunity Commission investigations, yet Cornell signed the agreement and touted it as a victory. We now have confirmation that Cornell naively thought that Trump would leave it alone once it paid a ransom of $60 million.
When placed into the hands of horror fanatics, Truth or Dare, Would You Rather and hide-and-seek are so much more than nostalgic childhood games — they become supernatural subversions of innocence. In Ready or Not, directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett pervert the familiar game of hide-and-seek into a gruesome game of survival, ripe with exploding Satanic in-laws and goat sacrifices. Now, almost seven years later, they reprise their twisted take on hide-and-seek in Ready or Not 2: Here I Come. Although Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett recycle old concepts, this sequel still makes for an undeniably entertaining slasher.
In Carl Sagan's Contact, aliens discover and connect with us here on Earth by intercepting radiowaves. As a DJ, it’s a nice thought; maybe aliens will tune in to my set, hear me play Pearl Jam for an hour and be so impressed by my taste that they decide to make contact. In reality, I can tell you that, for the most part, being a DJ feels like speaking into the void. I can imagine my voice carried off into the distant vacuum of space, reaching only the ears of a couple middle aged dads on the way, if I’m lucky.

Sadly, Nicholas Brendon, who portrayed Xander Harris for all seven seasons of the show, died at the age of 54 on March 20. Brendon leaves behind him the legacy of Xander Harris, a character who is often criticized for his many mistakes, as well as his own complex past.
