Longform


Superman

Too much super, not enough man

·

If you think of all the great superheroes reintroduced to American audiences theatrically over the last decade all of those men were distinctly human.

My complicated relationship with guns

·

I’ve held and fired a gun that gave me the comfort of protection and the guarantee of power. I, of sound mental state, can be trusted with such a weapon. I just know I don’t speak on behalf of all citizens who crave to get their hands on guns.

TrueBlood

New 'Blood' lacks bite

·

After years of glorious vampire sex, skin and scandal, “True Blood” has lost the fun that used to make it cable’s most awesomely insane series.


Mac Miller

Miller skips party for movie night

·

There are Tarzan-like beats and chirpy synths, so some of the riffs sound like you’re crawling through the thunderous “jungle” gym at Chuck E. Cheese’s. In a good way.





Comedy Oscars

Academy snubs class clowns

·

Even though there are iconic comedies referred to as classics the Academy Awards typically champion “higher-minded” movies.


3OH3

New album an 'Omen' for 3OH!3

·

If the album isn’t trying to force on its cheap, faux dubstep wannabe nonsense, it’s boring the hell out of whatever poor listener it’s plaguing.

Obama cares — does Indiana?

·

Health care is a place where, unlike my phone records or Facebook profile, expanded government involvement and regulation could be a good thing.


The Indiana Daily Student

On being an American abroad

·

People are not their governments, and people are not their political views. Next time you’re abroad or interacting with someone from a different country, assume they realize this too.
