What I Learned from the Declared Guilty Series – Why I No Longer Judge at First Sight
On March 26, 2025, the Netflix series Declared Guilty, based on Harlan Coben’s novel, premiered. Like many others, I sat down curious, expecting an exciting, maybe provocative crime drama.

Am I the Only One Who Itches When Someone Says, ‘I Don’t Care About Politics’?
There’s a phrase that twists my stomach every single time: “I don’t care about politics.” It sounds innocent, maybe even a bit sophisticated—as if the person floats above it all, refusing to get their hands dirty with the "world’s affairs." The problem is, it’s not a sign of moral high ground. It’s just someone trying to dodge responsibility, happily enjoying democracy’s perks but leaving the hard work to others.

Why I’m Sure Something Awful About Pedro Pascal Will Eventually Come Out
There’s probably no actor today surrounded by as unanimous and ecstatic a fanbase as Pedro Pascal, who’s admired not only as a brilliant artist but also as a genuinely good person based on his statements and candid moments. In fact, fans almost see him less as a person and more as an icon or symbol. And I think that could lead to trouble.

The answer is more complex than it seems, lying at the crossroads of biology, psychology, and social norms.

“So Many Still Believe in Love” – What It Was Like to Be at the 30th Budapest Pride
Thirty years. That’s how long it’s been since the first Budapest Pride march. Thirty years of protest, hope, celebration, community, fear, and courage. I’ve been attending Pride for over a decade and have experienced many moods and moments. I’ve marched behind barricades, amid whistles and jeers. I went then, too. I wasn’t as afraid as I was this year. Still, there was no question—I had to be there again this year.

Why Women Should Be Running the World
I truly believe women hold the world together, even if most political and economic leaders are men. In fact, it’s precisely because of women that it stays intact. Maybe things would be simpler if the right women were in charge of decision-making.

Why It’s Not Okay to Photograph Women Without Their Permission—No Matter What They’re Wearing

Just looking at a happy photo of our furry friend brings calm and eases stress, thanks to complex neural reactions in our brains. But here’s the real question: do animals experience similarly deep emotions with their owners or fellow animals? How close is their consciousness and perception to ours?
