GRADUATIONS 1, 2, AND 3
"SPECIAL" SEASON 2 RELEASE
May 22-23 If trying to get tickets for graduation on Ticketmaster wasn’t hard enough, now we actually have to...graduate. And we’re expected to find our “dream job”? Let’s be real: Jerk simply does not dream of labor.
May 20 Ryan O’Connell – who graced SU with his presence in 2019 – returns to our Netf lix screens this spring with a new season of Special, a semi-autobiographical story that follows a gay man with cerebral palsy as he navigates his identity and career. The upcoming season will close off the series, much to our dismay.
MERCURY RETROGRADE
NATIONAL WINE DAY
BILLIE EILISH "HAPPIER THAN EVER" ALBUM July 30 There’s nothing like a singer introducing a new era of their career with a bombshell photoshoot – and Billie’s done just that. Billie Eilish’s Marilyn Monroe-esque cover story with British Vogue left us all speechless and ready for her new album, Happier Than Ever.
THE ANTICIPATION OF DUNE October 2021 We’re still waiting for that prime Timmy and Zendaya content... Not sure when or why we became Dune stans, but we're not mad.
BITCH
HIT
May 25 You read that right; it’s officially w i ne o’c lo c k e v e r y w he r e. There’s never been a better t i me to f i l l t hat “Rosé A l l Day” tumbler to pregame the v ineyard. A ll we ask is that you lay off the "you had me at merlot" and "I’m on cloud wine" hashtags — the world already knows you treat a bottle of Sauv like it’s equivalent to therapy, Ashley.
May 29 - June 22 If you haven’t realized by now, Jerk loves ast rolog y but by t hat we mean being personally victimized by Co–Star’s push notifications. One thing we do NOT love is when Mercury is retrograde. So while you’re second guessing every single interaction for a month, try sipping on some Retrograde Rum Punch to calm your nerves (yes, we just pulled a shameless promo for 21+/-).
PRIDE MONTH RAINBOW WASHING
June 2021 “There is no et hical consumption under capitalism” — Karl Marx, probably. The fake solidarity during Pride Month from corporations isn’t fooling a nyone (Lister ine litera l ly rele a s e d a pr ide e d it ion mouthwash bottle). And don’t get us started on the over-the-top pride collection from Target.
LANA DEL REY’S “BLUE BANISTERS” July 4 We’ll be the first to admit that Lana Del Rey influenced our entire aesthetic – chain smoking cigarettes and riding on the back of a motorcycle of some sugar daddy… Who wouldn’t want to be her? But at this point, the PicsArt album covers have become too much.
