Just one step inside the BelAir Cantina restaurant and the mouthwatering smell of food rolled over me. I hadn’t been feeling too hungry prior to getting on the waitlist but suddenly I was ravenous.
After an offseason of contentious takes and controversial expectations, the first week of college football came and passed, offering the sports world a chance to reset its beliefs about the notable teams and players.
Definition of K-pop according to NPR Music: “‘K-pop’ is most often used to denote a subset of Korean music: idol songs. Idol music is varied, but generally catchy and slick and infused with a cacophony of influences — hip-hop, rock, Latinx roots music, techno — from all over the world, often within a single song.”
On April 4, 2022, NASA’s Hubble Telescope, launched in 1990, detected a Jupiter-like protoplanet, which is otherwise known as a swirling, massive ball of gas and matter thought to eventually become a planet. Dubbed AB Aurigae b due to its location in the Auriga constellation, this protoplanet is located about 531 light years away from the sun. For context, one light year is equivalent to about 9.5 trillion kilometers, which is nearly an incomprehensible distance. Hubble has detected countless celestial bodies situated at a further distance than this, including Earendel, a recently-spotted star some 12.9 billion light years away from the sun. However, what is particularly striking about AB Aurigae b is the potential implications of its discovery for understanding planetary formation.
UW-Madison student-athletes are now able to see their blood, sweat and tears on the field translate into cold, hard cash in their pockets.
The nation is mourning the loss of one of its big beautiful boys in blue after Minneapolis police officer Jim O’Brien accidentally discharged a taser into his nuts and died Wednesday.
Wooded creaks and winds
In the wake of a presidency tempered in raw angst, one of which that reveled in partisan divide, it is easy to lose oneself in the comforting reassurances of the next administration. Instead, we must remain vigilant of further demagoguery.
The Thompson Center is standing by the findings of a survey on student attitudes towards free speech after a trio UW-Madison professors publicly argued that the report’s science was faulty.
Sports in America come in various forms, with basketball, association football — or as North Americans would call it, soccer — football, baseball and ice hockey probably the most popular sports, in no particular order. Something that has often caught my attention is how American sports are organized. In fact, it somewhat inspired me to write this piece.
On New Years Eve 2020, it was announced that the legendary hip-hop artist Daniel Dumile, better known by his main alias MF Doom, had passed away. Doom, 49 when he died, was older than other recently deceased rappers. Pop Smoke was only 20, while Juice WRLD was 21. But if pop culture was riveted by the deaths of those two up-and-coming rap phenoms, MF Doom’s passing should send seismic waves through the artistic world. Doom’s influence not just on hip-hop but on all music cannot be, but so frequently is, understated.
In chess, a gambit is an opening sequence in which one side sacrifices material in hopes of gaining a positional advantage, the queen’s gambit being the most famous among them. Now, if you don’t know anything about chess, you should still watch the Netflix miniseries "The Queen’s Gambit" for a multitude of reasons — the fact that it has become a global sensation being just one. I bring up the concept of a gambit, however, because the story of Beth Harmon — the central character in "The Queen’s Gambit" — is just that, a gambit, and the series certainly offers no shortage of the thrill and suspense that one would expect to accompany a gambit — and if you don’t play chess just take my word for it that gambits peak the scale on the chess excitement-o-meter.
We’re on lucky number seven here at “Are You Entertained,” and sadly it couldn’t seem to come at an unluckier time. The world looks damn bleak right now, and as I listen to my family member cough up a COVID-filled lung downstairs and approach my fifth straight week of self-imposed social isolation measures, I know myself — and I’m sure many other Badgers out there — could use a few gentle reminders on what the word “gratitude” looks like during this time of the year.
In this quarantine time I’ve been yearning for some light, entertaining TV to occupy my time. And yet, somehow, I’ve ended up watching mostly holocaust movies. And, it’s been making me think a lot about my religion.
There have been countless reviews praising Fiona Apple’s newest album, Fetch The Bolt Cutters, and this is going to be another one, because yes… it is that good. But also because this album makes us reflect on Fiona Apple’s past relationship with the music industry, a relationship that merits some examination.
“Dolomite is my name and f*cking up motherf*ckers is my game,” was the common phrase comedic legend Rudy Ray Moore gave himself in his hit films in the 1970s. The comedian portrayed Dolemite, the pimp who battled criminals and engaged in various outlandish humorous situations. His work appealed largely to Black audiences across America and he became a huge icon within the Black community.
Disability, entertainment and sexuality has been a convoluted relationship not typically explored in mainstream media. There are many societal misconceptions of people with disabilities being seen as non-normative, other or deviant, which has shaped how sexuality of people with disabilities is seen as problematic under the public gaze.
18-year-old Jillian Rollins has high expectations for her first year at UW-Madison. Although she’s a bit of a home-body, she’s excited to move into her dorm room: “I’m going to decorate my walls with cute little lights, and I’m lofting my bed to make space for a futon,” she told us. When asked if she was worried about having to share a bathroom with 30 other girls she told me she was “sure it will be fine.” Little does she know that later this semester she’s going to wake up at 2:00 a.m. to pee and ram her head on the ceiling for the third time that week only to find that literally every single toilet is already full of shit upon arriving to the little girls’ room. And there’s no chance she’s going to get anything to stick to the walls in Sellery.
There was never a bigger or greater TV show in history. Originally airing in 2011, HBO’s “Game of Thrones” spanned eight seasons and helped transform the fantasy genre through its human-centered drama, complex characters and a captivating plot. With the series ending Sunday night, most fans, including myself, were extremely disappointed with how it ended.
