of wind and fall layering [lifestyle]
By Sean Toomey | October 13Fall is really flying by, thanks to the universe deciding to jump from summer breeze to winter gales (with a little help from a hurricane), and I bet some of you are freezing your asses off.

whisk me away [A&C]
By Samiha Kazi | October 6Cake week. Episode One. As I watch the notification from Netflix momentarily block out my chemistry notes on an early Friday morning, I let out a sigh of relief.

from here, you can see everything [narrative]
By Emily Tom | October 6Your first therapist is for a speech delay. She feeds you sentences and you regurgitate them back to her. She makes you drop pennies into a mason jar. She teaches you animal sounds, fills the house with oink and moo. After a few months, she leaves, and your voice stays.

ice cream wisdom [narrative]

in search of dogs [lifestyle]
By Andy Luo | October 6My life at Brown has been largely devoid of dogs. I often go days without seeing a single dog. And I don’t like that.

in defense of tempeh [feature]
By Audrey Wijono | October 6Ratty tempeh is a mortal sin, an unspeakable around these parts; its reputation precedes it.

the asian american dilemma [feature]
By Lauren Cho | September 29Recently, someone told me that I looked “textbook” Korean, which felt a bit unsettling.

By Lily Seltz | September 29Chocolate-chip banana muffins. Picture them. Soft and robust, their tops golden and cracked like a drought-split plain.

sawayama’s melodrama [A&C]
By Dorrit Corwin | September 29This summer I switched to Spotify. I was always petrified to reveal my identity as an Apple Music user, but I was equally stubborn to admit that the platform was inferior.

exile [narrative]
By Laura Tamayo | September 29I’ve been here before. It’s a hazy, remote memory in my mind, but it’s there. The lingering song of a raunchy salsa band wafting through the streets. The wandering stray dogs with matted fur. The white cross of the stone cathedral. Each direction births a new recollection, unwieldy and uncertain, ...
