I spent a lot of time on trans YouTube this year. Like, a lot. In the dark periods of navigating transition, I found solace in these brief, 10-minute clips about embarrassing coming out stories, cultural approach to gender, hormone replacement therapy — the list goes on. There’s something deeply magical about knowing that some stranger across the world has gone through the same thing you have, especially when finding that source of resonance in your immediate surroundings can feel impossible.

As a lover of film and television, I often find myself struggling to find something to watch. Movies in theaters feel uninteresting or often retell the same stories with a new cast. Television is no better with eight-episode seasons becoming the norm. This is after fans are expected to wait years to see more of their favorite characters.

Logistically, events often require an attendance cap. Deciding who can attend through a pre-organized method — like having prospective attendees fill out a form — is logical and helps beat the chaos of the day-of ticket rush. Not everyone can attend every event, and that’s okay.

At this point in the semester, you may be starting to feel your assignments and responsibilities piling up. As a recent Duke graduate of the Class of 2024, I remember constantly juggling weekly assignments alongside papers and exams, friends and extracurriculars. With so many responsibilities, it was challenging to find time to also do laundry, get enough sleep and reassure my family that I was surviving college. Sometimes, the never-ending to-do list became so overwhelming and exhausting that I struggled to get anything done. I wanted to make the most of my time at Duke, but my motivation hit an all-time low.

How many nights have you found yourself lying awake, with worries piling up like papers on a desk, wondering how much more you can handle? I know the feeling all too well. There was a time when I believed I could power through anything, that pushing myself harder, sleeping less, and taking on more would eventually lead me to success. I told myself I was being strong, resilient, even rational. But deep down, I felt like a spring pulled too tight, no longer able to bounce back.

Our impending presidential election is raising a series of challenging questions. What should happen to those who ignore legitimate results or promise to do so? What steps should be taken to respond to efforts to undermine an election? Should you rely on the courts or undertake other forms of defiance? What are the costs of those activities? Those are all critically important issues. They are worth thinking through. Indeed, you could spend your whole life doing so. That’s what I am doing.

As the Hispanic vote becomes less blue each election cycle, news outlets continue to wonder why. In 2016 Democrats won 65% of the Hispanic vote, and in 2020 this percentage lowered to 62%. But a recent poll in the New York Times estimates that only 52% of Hispanic voters will go for Harris while 40% will vote Trump. Some polls look better for Democrats on the Hispanic vote, but the days of over 60% margins towards Democrats are over. This trend has progressed since the Obama administration ended and has only accelerated in recent years. But when analyzing such trends, many have failed to break down the changing Hispanic vote.
