The hospitals shut down within days. No one shows up to work anymore, and no one could blame them in light of the awful, unnamed virus spreading everywhere. The crucial supply chains – for protective gear, for food, for gas, for everything — were also crippled. Hardly anyone is leaving their house, and those that do encounter apocalyptic scenes.
New research released this week shows that due to climate change, people currently under 40 will experience weather disasters over their lifetime at an unprecedented level.
Recently, Netflix came out with their third and final season of “Sex Education,” a show in which the son of a sex therapist starts a commercial “sex education” clinic at his school in order to subsidize the crappy education the school gives. Touching on subjects as common as the pressure to lose one's virginity to things such as Vaginismus, the show truly accomplishes what its leading character Otis seeks to do: educate teenagers about the subjects they thought were taboo. Rotten Tomatoes says the new season is as “raunchy and riotous as ever,” but even with its shockingly explicit scenes and British setting, the show is much more socially valuable than another raunchy go.
More than 1,000 pro-choice advocates marched down State Street to Capitol Square this Saturday afternoon to demonstrate against recent restrictions being placed on access to abortion in Texas. Earlier in the day, pro-life advocates held a similar event in the downtown area, with the two groups engaging in minor confrontations.
For all the time spent discussing parity in major sports, there have always been certain teams and programs associated with winning and success. America has several premier sports franchises that have been ingrained into culture as bastions of success, such as the LA Lakers, the Boston Celtics, the New England Patriots, the Green Bay Packers, the Yankees, the Alabama Crimson Tide and more.
On one of my unproductive days, I stumbled upon a video on YouTube by a standup comedian. He talked about his experience being dark-skinned in Indian society. As funny as his anecdotes were, his remarks resonated with me — about how people assumed that he was a chain-snatcher because was dark-skinned, how his mother growing up would give him almond milk to make him fairer, how his relatives made fun of him for his skin color. It hit painfully close to home. Most of what he went through, I did too, and still do.
On Tuesday, the Student Council of the Associated Students of Madison — the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s student government — convened in person for the first time since the onset of the pandemic.
UW nurses advocated for a resolution to ensure quality patient care through a “fair and fast” union election during Tuesday’s Common Council meeting, citing a lack of coordination from management.
Fresh off a week of rest, the 18th-ranked Wisconsin Badgers (1-1) will take the field Saturday morning against the 12th-ranked Notre Dame Fighting Irish (3-0). Although this is officially a home game for Wisconsin, it will take place at Soldier Field, which happens to be 58 miles closer to South Bend than it is to Madison. Thus, both fan bases are likely to be well represented — and well hydrated — for the 11 a.m. kickoff.
UW: LB Leo Chenal
Last weekend my little sister and I saw a dead cat on the side of the road. We were driving home from campus on our way to our parents’ house to visit, do laundry and eat a home-cooked meal when we saw it. It was blotched black and white, laying down as if it was only sleeping. But it was just a foot off the road, unmoving, on top of a piece of cardboard.
For some of us in the world, the fight to belong somewhere in this vastly large, yet woefully vacant place has been relentless; hurled into an endlessly turbulent expedition, some of us have been fervently yearning for the sweet comfort of an accepting community. On the other hand, some of us have been privileged enough to be indoctrinated from birth into automatic social acceptance, power and prestige.
Last Friday, UW-Madison’s Gordon Avenue Market and Four Lakes Market dining halls transitioned to an all-you-can-eat style service in light of staffing and supply chain issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Wisconsin will take the field once again at Camp Randall Stadium on Saturday, this time under the lights against Eastern Michigan, who beat St. Francis 35-15 last week. To capture their first win of 2021, the Badgers will need a better all-around performance than they displayed in the 16-10 loss to Penn State, but they must place particular emphasis on a few areas of their game.
Kanye West is a new man. Or should we call him Ye, as that’s what he officially applied to change his name to. Whether anyone calls him that or not, it’s just one of the many changes the man formerly known as Kanye West has gone through since his last release, JESUS IS KING in 2019.
The start of football season marks an exciting time for students with tailgates, in-person gatherings and a full student section at Camp Randall on the horizon.
Camp Randall Stadium, like many of the other great venues in college football, desperately missed a key element during the 2020 season: a real crowd.
On Jan. 20, newly inaugurated President Biden halted the Keystone XL crude oil pipeline. On June 9, TC Energy officially canceled the project. This stand against the oil industry was a joyous moment for environmental advocates across the country, but it represents a victory on just one of many fronts being fought. Despite tireless actions by Indigenous Water Protectors and national pressure through media campaigns and protests, outdated energy corporations continue forcing their dirty oil through the soil. The permit and construction process for Lines 5 and 3 — pipeline expansions through upper Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan by the Canadian energy company Enbridge — are still in the works.
My introduction to late-night television was very recent. I remember utilizing shows by the likes of Trevor Noah, Stephen Colbert and Seth Meyers to understand the partisan political landscape in America, starting when I got elected as an opinion editor at the Cardinal back in December 2019. At first, I couldn’t stop watching. The YouTube algorithm loves the monologue content these shows produce, and I found myself deep in a rabbit hole. At the time, I quite liked it. The shows seemed clever to me then, I must embarrassingly admit.
The pandemic, as we know it, has not been easy for anyone. It would be easy to ask anyone on the street about their experience with COVID-19, especially about the effects the pandemic has had on them. Whether it were events cancelled, the loss of a job or even a loss of a family member, the list goes on about the vast repercussions the global killer has caused. Yet there is a key question in everyone’s mind: When does it end?
