Music itself isnt dying and im not here to make some bullshit haphazard claim that it is in any capacity.
id go as far as to say that, now especially, it is all around us. When times are uncertain, we strip ourselves own to the bare bones of basic human instinct, because in the end, thats what has gotten us to where we are. Theres something so romantic about art and music being part of what makes us human. What makes us, in a sense, superior. Its why we believe in a god, really, and why so many of us continue to toy with anthropocentric ideals.
but we are not above it all.
were smarter, steps up from the ape in intellect alone. That does not make us better, it simply makes us faster, more sensitive, better equipped to shape the world to our image. We mimic the divine. I do not deny that we are creators too in our own way.
but the question at hand that im currently losing my marbles over isnt whether man is superior, or if mind over matter is what makes us so. Its the one that asks when art being everywhere isnt enough anymore, when it only serves to leave us high and dry.
there is no shortage of musicians. The beauty of advancement is that everything is within reach, that the next hayley williams picks up a microphone and that the next elliott smith picks up a guitar. Human potential is realised. It is not wasted, and maybe that is enough. Maybe the sacrifices that have inevitably come of the digital age are all worth it because we can all have it all, in this respect.
times are bleak. It is a terrifying world that we are living in and it feels like absolute shit growing up in it knowing that you actually can do everything right in high school and everything right in college and end up in the same place you wouldve had you not strived for greater things. We are all a little bit doomed and trying not to let that fact consume us. Because thats when well stagnate and it will catch up to us.
as a musician, the hardest thing to reconcile with has been the fact that im going to be a guitar hobbyist until my deathbed. That if i want to be somebody beyond a local celebrity, i have to let my calluses heal and make a change in a different way. Ill be doing it through gritted teeth all while cursing the day i was born to parents who didnt set aside a trust fund for me to live off of while i drop out of college with my stoner girlfriend and make shitty pop punk music until i join the 27 club while on a spelunking excursion with the rest of my friendgroup/polycule.
i say that its so unfair that i need to actually do shit beyond creating and creating and creating but its most of our fates. Being a musician and also making money dont really go hand in hand. Especially now.
its never really been easy but music itself is changing so much nowadays.
the idea of a mainstream band getting popular now and making a liveable wage in the 2020s really is a foreign concept. I know that there are likely exceptions, but there is an exception to every rule and i frankly dont wanna hear it.
genres are different. The genres and albums making it into musical canon have practically all happened by now. Innovation is kind of just... Gone. Solo artists have dominion over the industry. Labels are dedicated to branding, and its a hell of a lot easier when they have one person and one person only emptying their pockets.
the bands in western music that are popular now are the same bands that were popular 20 years ago.
every band is trying to go retro and every band is trying to do what another more talented group of guys already did 20+ years ago while also doing it worse. I cant even blame those poor saps because were conditioned to gravitate towards the familiar and theyre not necessarily using the wrong approach. So ill still check out the bands that promote their shit with the tagline were the next my chemical romance (theyre not) simply because i have to commend them for trying to make it when both the people and the numbers are against them.
im just pissed about it because its starting to feel like in order to make it, you either need to be an absolute powerhouse who can write sing and dance impeccably from the womb or have enough people backing you financially that a record deal is a cheque away.
band dont make it anymore. The intimacy of sharing a stage and clawing your way to fame together is lost on us and it really is a depressing thought.
i guess what i want to close with is that we need to understand why we do what we do. I want local scenes to thrive and i need people to keep art alive because late stage capitalism is taking that from us just as much as i want it all to be easier for us.
music should be a refuge. So i guess in the end, thats what the point of it all is.
i just wish we could all reap the rewards in a tangible way. |

friday weekend edition
it started as a costume ball created by ringling college students, turned into an event focused on artist colony members and became a massive event by 1953.
come march 21, a piece of sarasota’s history will come to life. The beaux arts ball—which began in the 1930s—will make its return as a part of art center sarasota’s 100th anniversary. The ball, which is art center’s biggest fundraiser of the year, is designed to be a time portal into the jazz age of the 1920s. Guests are encouraged to wear 1920s-inspired attire and live entertainment will be provided by a jazz trio led by los angeles-based musician ben thomas.
were hoping to make a big splash and have the community come together and really enjoy themselves at this event,” says alecia harper, donor relations coordinator at art center sarasota. “It will be a multimedia event, with live music and skits, in an effort to revive some of the energy of the late 1940s after world war ii when people were starting to enjoy themselves again and enjoy the arts.”
although the beaux arts ball technically began around 1936, when guy “pappy” saunders, an instructor at ringling college, would organize a group of art students to gather at the john ringling hotel, art center sarasota took over the reins after the second world war. That post-war period was a crucial part of developing sarasota’s artistic heritage—an influx of art school students on the gi bill built sarasota’s reputation as an “artist colony,” where art schools lined the streets and artists came from all over the country to develop their craft.
“at the time when the sarasota art association took over the beaux arts ball, there were maybe 500 artist members from the artist colony. By 1951, there were more than 1,000 art association artist members and so the ball was very closely entwined with the people that formed the artist colony,” says harper. “It started as a costume ball created by ringling college students, turned into an event focused on artist colony members and became a massive event by 1953.”

subject: global outbreak chronology
the survival horror timeline: a chronological guide to the resident evil universe
the narrative of resident evil unfolds across decades of biological warfare, corporate greed, and human resilience. This is the definitive in-universe order of events.
the resident evil universe charts humanity’s desperate struggle against weaponized biology.
for those plotting out their playthroughs, understanding how to play game franchises in chronological order can fundamentally change how you experience the narrative arc. If you only have three sessions available to dive into the franchise, the best crash course is to play resident evil 2, then resident evil 4, and finally resident evil 7.
that progression gives you the classic city outbreak, the monumental action pivot, and the modern reboot of tone without requiring a degree in franchise lore.
before examining the specific timeline, it is essential to understand the sheer scale of the umbrella corporations influence. As detailed in the cataclysm of emergence day in other sci-fi universes, society-ending events rarely happen overnight.
they are engineered.
the arklay mountain incident and the subsequent destruction of raccoon city were the culmination of decades of secret eugenics programs, petty corporate rivalries, and a fundamental disregard for human life.
the official playstation introduction offers a great primer, but the guide below dives directly into the bloody details of the timeline, beginning with the spark that lit the fire.
i. The arklay incident and the raccoon city collapse
resident evil 0 (july 1998)
antagonist: dr. James marcus
core theme: the genesis of corporate vengeance
set a mere twenty-four hours before the horrors of the initial spencer mansion invasion, this narrative follows s.T.A.R.S. Bravo team’s investigation into the cannibalistic arklay murders. Rookie medic rebecca chambers teams up with fugitive ex-marine billy coen, and together they stumble across the ugly origin story of umbrella’s culture. They navigate the doomed ecliptic express train, eventually uncovering a subterranean training facility. The lore reveals the bitter rivalry between umbrella’s founders. Dr. James marcus, betrayed and assassinated by his own proteges, returns as a bio-organic leech entity seeking revenge. This game provides vital context, showing that the t-virus outbreak was not a mere lab accident but a deliberate act of vengeance born from corporate backstabbing.
mechanically and narratively, this entry lays the groundwork for the generational conflict seen later in the series. The partner zapping system creates incredible tension; leaving your partner in a different room means you are always one mistake away from dying alone. The grand reveal of the training facility makes umbrella’s twisted family business literal and grotesque. As a prequel created years after the original, it retrofits motivations and causes that the 1996 game only hinted at. When any later entry references the original founders, dr. Marcus, or the early cutthroat research culture of umbrella, this game is the foundational texture it borrows from.
resident evil (july 1998)
antagonist: albert wesker, the tyrant
core theme: survival horror template and betrayal
following the disappearance of bravo team, alpha team enters the seemingly abandoned spencer mansion, only to find an elaborate gothic deathtrap built over a massive, buried laboratory. While the shuffling zombies are the headline threat, brutal betrayal is the real infection eating away at the team. Players slowly realize that umbrella is gathering active field data on their bioweapons, using the elite s.T.A.R.S. Unit as high-value test subjects. The mansion is simply a velvet curtain hiding industrial-scale cruelty and unrestricted genetic tampering.
this game fundamentally teaches the series’ central mechanical language: limited ink ribbons for saving, doors that do not want to open, intricate puzzles that mock your panic, and the oppressive feeling that the building itself is a living enemy. The iconic first zombie encounter turning slowly over its shoulder is a moment etched into the history of video games. The mansion loop of finding bizarre keys and hidden shortcuts teaches the player to view geography and memorization as a survival tool. The stellar 2002 remake significantly deepens umbrella’s internal structure and the mansion’s ecological horror, specifically by adding the tragic subplot of lisa trevor. This version is universally recognized as the definitive canon reference point.
resident evil 3: nemesis (september 1998)
antagonist: nemesis
core theme: the outbreak collapse and relentless pursuit
set immediately before, during, and after the events of resident evil 2, this game follows jill valentine as she tries to escape an unraveling city. Umbrella is running a ruthless active field test in the chaos: nemesis. This towering, highly intelligent hunter-killer weapon is programmed with a singular goal to erase all remaining s.T.A.R.S. Members to prevent them from testifying. The zombie outbreak quickly becomes background noise; the real story is a desperate game of cat-and-mouse with a corporation actively cleaning up its witnesses while the city burns to the ground.
this narrative makes umbrella feel profoundly tactical, organized, and cruel in real time. This is no longer just a contained lab accident in the woods; it is a live military operation with deployed assets, corporate handlers, and brutal secondary objectives. The terrifying, guttural roar of “stars” followed by thundering footsteps introduces predator design at its absolute purest. Jill’s devastating mid-game infection forces the player to take control of carlos for a frantic sprint through the hospital to synthesize a cure. It successfully turns the sprawling outbreak into a high-octane chase film, permanently cementing jill valentine as the franchises most resilient survivor.
resident evil 2 (september 1998)
antagonist: william birkin, mr. X
core theme: intimate tragedy amidst a dying city
rookie cop leon s. Kennedy and college student claire redfield arrive in raccoon city at the absolute worst moment in modern horror history. Separated by a fiery crash, they must independently survive the labyrinthine halls of the raccoon city police department. Their journey forces them down into the citys sewers and eventually into umbrella’s clandestine nest facility. Here, the narrative shifts to the devastating g-virus story, turning the domestic tragedy of the birkin family into an extinction-level biological accident that threatens the entire world.
this entry hits so hard because it masterfully balances epic scale with profound intimacy. A massive midwestern city dies in the background, but the emotional core is rooted in a young girl named sherry who desperately needs protecting, and two young strangers figuring out how to be brave heroes on zero notice. The rpd building itself acts as a beautiful puzzle box cathedral; the fact that it used to be an art museum bakes fear directly into the bizarre architecture. The relentless pursuer pressure from mr. X teaches players the harsh lesson that safety in safe rooms is temporary. The stellar 2019 remake clarifies muddy character motivations and beautifully modernizes the underground facility lore, establishing a gritty tone that spills into how fans currently interpret the franchises overarching story.
i’m going to take down umbrella. That’s a promise.
- claire redfield
ii. The global bioterror war
resident evil: code veronica (december 1998)
antagonist: alexia ashford, albert wesker
core theme: the global umbrella empire and twisted legacies
set a few months after raccoon citys destruction, claire redfields relentless search for her brother chris drags her into a secretive umbrella prison on rockfort island. The island is ruled by the deeply disturbed ashford twins, representing the decaying aristocratic legacy of umbrellas founders. Chris eventually enters the fray mid-crisis, only to discover that albert wesker has miraculously returned from the dead. Enhanced with a mysterious virus, wesker possesses terrifying superhuman speed and power, turning family dynasties and viral arms races into the series’ next massive narrative arc.
this game dramatically moves the resident evil scope from a localized city disaster to a global corporate empire. More importantly, it completely reinvents albert wesker from a standard twist-villain into an overarching, long-term threat who feels like an entire action genre contained within one character. The chilling introduction of alexia ashford as bio-royalty presents a final boss built entirely from aristocratic obsession, incestuous legacy, and genetic pedigree. It successfully expands the franchises scope without losing the campy, gothic melodrama, firmly establishing the redfield siblings as the series’ ultimate moral counterweight.
resident evil 4 (2004)
antagonist: osmund saddler, los illuminados
core theme: the action pivot and mind control
six years after surviving raccoon city, a battle-hardened leon s. Kennedy is now a government agent dispatched to a remote village in rural spain to rescue the us president’s kidnapped daughter, ashley graham. Instead of zombies, leon uncovers the los illuminados cult and a terrifying ancient parasite known as las plagas. This parasite shifts the fundamental biothreat from a mindless lab virus to a highly intelligent, living hive-mind control system. Meanwhile, ada wong operates in the shadows, running a parallel espionage war to secure a master plaga sample in broad daylight.
this game completely widens the biological threat model. The horror is no longer just about bodily infection; it is about the total loss of free will and mental control. The chaotic, overwhelming opening village assault is the exact moment the action-horror template crystallizes, forcing players to constantly stay on the move. The intense knife-fight rivalry with jack krauser frames the conflict as agent versus soldier, and government ideology versus raw survivalism. Widely considered one of gaming’s most successful and influential pivots, it retains a horrific atmosphere but dresses it in high-octane velocity, transforming leon into a legendary genre action icon.
resident evil 5 (2009)
antagonist: albert wesker, tricell
core theme: blockbuster bioterror and the end of an era
chris redfield, now a hardened bsaa captain bearing immense trauma, travels to the sun-baked region of kijuju in west africa. Partnered with local agent sheva alomar, they chase a lead on bioweapon trafficking only to uncover tricell, a massive corporate successor capitalizing on umbrella’s old research. The plot escalates wildly as albert wesker reveals his endgame: the uroboros virus, designed to force global genetic evolution. This pushes the series fully into blockbuster territory, utilizing mandatory co-op combat, massive global stakes, and a god-complex villain who refuses to die.
this entry definitively closes the long-running chris versus wesker chapter that began in the arklay mountains over a decade prior. The devastating twist of jill valentine being mind-controlled and weaponized against chris turns her very identity into a psychological tool for wesker. The infamous, bombastic volcano finale represents peak series excess; it is thrilling, absurdly muscular, and ridiculous all at the same time. For many veteran fans, this is the exact turning point where tension-based horror fully yields to cooperative action spectacle, fundamentally changing the emotional contract with the player.
iii. The winters family tragedy
resident evil 7: biohazard (2017)
antagonist: eveline, the baker family
core theme: the intimate horror reset
everyman ethan winters travels to a derelict plantation in dulvey, louisiana, searching for his missing wife, mia. He unwittingly walks into a terrifying, mold-infected family tragedy engineered by a synthetic bioweapon child named eveline. Stripped of the franchises trademark martial arts and heavy artillery, the game shifts to a claustrophobic first-person perspective. The horror is instantly intimate, bodily, and disgustingly sticky. The series miraculously reinvents itself by shrinking the frame, hiding the global lore in the margins, and making every single hallway a matter of personal survival.
the sentient mutamycete mold and the shadowy crime syndicate known as the connections become the robust new myth engine driving the modern era. The iconic, grotesque dinner scene where ethan is force-fed by the infected family welds utter disgust and creeping dread together flawlessly. Jack baker acts as a relentless, wall-smashing pursuer, proving that dark, twisted humor and genuine horror can share the exact same heartbeat. It firmly puts vulnerable survival horror back in the franchises driver’s seat, establishing that terrifying monsters are often just ordinary people who got horribly used and corrupted by science.
resident evil village (2021)
antagonist: mother miranda, the four lords
core theme: modern folklore and mythological roots
following a violent raid on his home by chris redfield, ethan winters is dragged into a snowy, folkloric nightmare in eastern europe to save his kidnapped infant daughter, rose. Here, the mold lineage violently expands into a full-blown religious cult led by mother miranda and her four monstrous lords. The story brilliantly connects the modern, supernatural-feeling horror right back to the oldest umbrella symbols, revealing that oswell e. Spencer was originally inspired by mirandas work. It shows exactly how obsessive academic research becomes the catalyst for corporate apocalypse.
it successfully ties the bizarre, isolated new saga to the franchise’s oldest, most revered iconography. It proves definitively that resident evil can wear wildly different horror masks, from sweeping gothic romance to grimy folk horror, while still feeling cohesive. The towering lady dimitrescu and her opulent, blood-soaked castle became a massive cultural phenomenon. The descent into house beneviento strips the player of all weapons, creating a clinic in weaponized anxiety and pure psychological dread. Ethan’s heartbreaking final sacrifice provides a rare, undeniably clean tragedy and heroic closure for a protagonist.
iv. The legacy return
resident evil requiem (2026)
antagonist: the lingering legacy of raccoon city
core theme: returning to the ruins
just released to the world, this highly anticipated entry follows fbi analyst grace ashcroft as she investigates a string of bizarre new deaths tied to the condemned wrenwood hotel, sitting right on the irradiated outskirts of the raccoon city ruins. Veteran agent leon s. Kennedy returns as a second playable lead, officially pulling the series narrative weight back toward its absolute origin point. The game presents a chilling new case that treats the crater of raccoon city and the legacy of the rpd like a genuinely haunted, toxic landmark, refusing to use it merely as cheap nostalgia wallpaper.
the entire premise is built around immense narrative pressure: can the series successfully return to the physical ruins of its most famous disaster without being creatively trapped by them? The brilliant dual-protagonist pacing expertly balances graces vulnerable, desperate survival tension against leons heavily trained, lethal competence. Returning to ground zero of the franchises most famous disaster has the power to set the trajectory for an entirely new decade of horror stories, provided it leans hard into actual consequences rather than just handing out fan souvenirs. |

| YOWZA : Lauren Sánchezs New Look Ahead of Her First Wedding Anniversary Has Fans |

By angelina ,
4 hours ago lauren sánchez is snatched and not just at the waist.
the former “good day la” host is leaving no procedure untried in hopes of preserving a youthful appearance, and people are taking notice.
sánchez, 54, has been captivating for years, but her appearance has vexed fans ever since she and jeff bezos went public with their romance. The couple confirmed their courtship in 2019 and wed in a lavish ceremony in venice, italy, in 2025.
jeff bezos and his wife, lauren sanchez, are prep (photo: cindy ord/mg24/getty images for the met museum/vogue) ‘jeff was sweating’: lauren sánchez’s miniskirt makes a scene at wild party as cameras catch jeff bezos’ ‘uncomfortable’ look
sánchez’s risqué outfits, pumped-up figure , and her face have been headline staples ever since. While promoting her new children’s book, “the fly who flew under the sea,” the internet is still fixated on her ever-changing mug.
the author recently appeared on the “today” show, where she shared the book series’ close ties to her struggles with a learning disability. “I hid it for a really long time. I didn’t know i was dyslexic until i was 19 and a teacher, a community college teacher…she got me tested,” said sánchez.
“she literally looked at me ’cause i was like, ‘i can’t write.’ And she goes, ‘you’re not dumb, you just can’t spell.’ … I went through life hiding it, even when i was a news anchor. No one knew i was dyslexic except for my co-anchor, and he would help me,” said sanchez of rick garcia, who would discreetly whisper challenging words to her.
the philanthropist also revealed that she shares the diagnosis with one of her sons. She and ex-nfl player tony gonzalez share a son, nikko gonzalez, while sánchez and ex-husband patrick whitesell share children evan and ella. She is stepmom to bezos’ four children with his ex-wife, mackenzie scott.
people then mocked sánchez for grappling with becoming an empty nester when her daughter begins college next school year. “When my boys went to college, i was like, ‘let’s move along, let’s get out of the house,’” she confessed.
things are different with ella. “I went to dinner with her the other night, and i started talking about her going to college, and i just started crying,” said sánchez, adding, “i am really excited for her; she’s the artist in the family, and i can’t wait to see her go.”
the emotional message didn’t resonate with those staring wide-eyed at an almost unrecognizable sánchez. Fans expressed reactions like saying, “she used to have such a lovely face” and “yowza ” another said, “she is a caricature of herself. Like wow. She was pretty before all of the procedures.”
more harsh comments leaned into criticizing sanchez, read, “isn’t jeff bozo lauren’s third husband? If at first you don’t succeed.” Another said, “3 husbands. What’s the common denominator here ? Although this time one eye mini me is just happy to be with someone and he must know that if it wasn’t for his wealth he would still be taking those extra long showers.”
the newlyweds have been photographed gallivanting at paris and new york fashion week shows, oscars after parties, international date nights, and more, but never with their children since getting married. In may, bezos and sánchez will be among stars on the red carpet for the 2026 met gala. They are pulling double duty for the event as sponsors and co-chairs.

| The Elms Mansion: Rhode Islands Hidden Gem Wedding Venue and Why It Deserves a P |

The elms mansion: rhode island’s hidden gem wedding venue and why it deserves a place on your shortlist
there is something about new england that produces a particular kind of beauty — one that is rooted in history, shaped by centuries of accumulated elegance, and expressed through architecture and landscape that feels as though it grew organically from the land itself rather than being imposed upon it. It is a beauty that is quiet and confident rather than showy, that rewards close attention rather than demanding it from across the room, and that becomes more rather than less impressive the longer you spend in its presence.
rhode island, the smallest state in the nation and one of the most historically rich, has this quality in abundance, and nowhere in the state does it express itself more fully for a wedding couple than at the elm mansion in smithfield, rhode island.
at the heart of rhode island’s stunning wedding venues is the elms mansion, an exceptional choice that embodies charm and elegance.
if you have been searching for a wedding venue in rhode island and you have not yet come across the elm mansion, or if you have seen it mentioned and passed over it in favor of the more widely publicized options in newport or providence, this is your invitation to look again. The elm mansion is the kind of venue that rewards the couple who is willing to look a little deeper, to move past the obvious choices, and to discover something that feels genuinely personal and genuinely extraordinary in equal measure.
the elms mansion invites couples to explore its rich history and stunning architecture, which adds a layer of significance to every wedding celebration.
one of the unique aspects of the elms mansion is its ability to offer a serene environment that feels both intimate and grand, making it a perfect backdrop for your wedding.
what is the elm mansion and where does it come from
the elm mansion is a historic estate property in smithfield, rhode island, that has been thoughtfully transformed into a premier wedding and event venue while retaining the architectural character, the historical integrity, and the overall sense of place that makes it so distinctive. The property takes its name from the magnificent elm trees that have defined the landscape of the estate for generations, and those trees remain one of the most immediately striking features of the grounds, creating a canopy of natural beauty that sets the tone for everything that follows.
the elms mansion is not only a wedding venue; it’s a historical landmark that tells a story of love and celebration.
the mansion itself is a stunning example of the kind of grand new england domestic architecture that flourished during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, when rhode island’s manufacturing wealth and its proximity to the gilded age resort culture of newport combined to produce a class of prosperous families who built homes of genuine ambition and beauty throughout the state. The property has the proportions, the craftsmanship, and the accumulated character of a building that was designed to last and to impress, and it does both with considerable success.
choosing the elms mansion means selecting a venue that has witnessed countless love stories unfold within its walls.
smithfield, rhode island, sits in the northern part of the state, roughly equidistant from providence and the massachusetts border, in a landscape of rolling hills, mature forests, and the kind of pastoral new england countryside that looks like it belongs on a calendar or the cover of a magazine about the region. The surrounding area has a quietness and a natural beauty that provides a perfect counterpoint to the grandeur of the mansion itself, and the combination of the estate’s architectural presence and the new england landscape that cradles it creates an environment of remarkable visual richness.
with the elms mansion as your setting, you create a wedding day that is steeped in tradition and beauty.
the character and feeling of the property
one of the things that distinguishes the elm mansion from many other wedding venues, and one of the things that couples who visit it most consistently remark upon, is the quality of presence that the property has. It is a place that feels lived in and loved in a way that purpose-built event spaces simply do not, and that quality of accumulated history and human experience gives it a warmth and a depth that no amount of clever interior design can manufacture from scratch.
this feeling of warmth is why many couples choose the elms mansion as their wedding venue.
the grounds of the elm mansion are extensive and beautifully maintained, with the towering elm trees creating a natural architecture of their own that rivals anything built by human hands on the property. Walking beneath those trees on a summer afternoon or a crisp fall day is an experience that immediately communicates something about the character of this place — that it has been here for a long time, that it has been cared for, and that the people who have tended it have understood its value and treated it accordingly.
the elms mansion’s grounds are perfect for outdoor ceremonies, where nature meets history in the most beautiful way.
the mansion itself presents a facade of quiet dignity and classical proportion that is quintessentially new england in its aesthetic — neither ostentatious nor understated, but settled comfortably in that particular register of confident elegance that the region does better than almost anywhere else in the country. The architectural details speak of craftsmanship and care, of materials chosen for their quality and longevity rather than their immediate visual impact.
inside, the mansion has the kind of interior spaces that make you want to slow down and look carefully at everything around you. The original architectural features — the moldings, the fireplaces, the staircases, the proportioned rooms with their tall windows — have been preserved with genuine respect for what they represent, and the result is an interior environment that feels rich and layered in a way that is deeply satisfying to spend time in.
why rhode island is the perfect state for a historic mansion wedding
before diving deeper into the specifics of the elm mansion, it is worth pausing to appreciate the broader context of getting married in rhode island, because the state itself is such a remarkable setting for a wedding of this character.
rhode island has been accumulating history longer than almost any other place in america. It was one of the original thirteen colonies, founded on principles of religious tolerance and individual liberty that were radical for their time, and its subsequent history as a center of maritime trade, manufacturing, and eventually the gilded age resort culture of newport has produced a built environment of extraordinary richness and variety. The state is small enough that you can drive from one end to the other in under two hours, but that compactness means that the historical and architectural density is remarkable — there is simply more of significance per square mile in rhode island than in almost any comparable area of the country.
for a couple getting married at the elm mansion, all of that context matters, because your guests who travel to rhode island for your wedding are going to experience not just your wedding day but the full sensory richness of new england at its most compelling. Whether they spend time in providence exploring one of the country’s great small cities, drive down to newport to walk the cliff walk and see the gilded age mansions, or simply enjoy the pastoral beauty of the rhode island countryside, they are going to have an experience that extends well beyond the hours of your reception, and that is the hallmark of a truly great destination wedding.
the ceremony spaces
the elm mansion offers ceremony options that take advantage of both the architectural grandeur of the mansion itself and the natural beauty of the surrounding grounds, and the flexibility of these options is one of the things that makes the venue so well suited to a range of wedding visions.
outdoor ceremonies on the grounds of the elm mansion are among the most beautiful available anywhere in rhode island. The combination of the towering elm trees, the manicured lawns, the mature plantings, and the mansion itself as a backdrop creates a ceremony environment of extraordinary visual richness. Vows exchanged beneath the canopy of those great elms, with the new england landscape stretching out around you and the mansion framing the scene, produce a visual and emotional experience that is deeply memorable for both the couple and their guests.
for outdoor ceremonies at the elms mansion, the lush surroundings enhance the emotion of your vows.
the garden areas of the property offer more intimate ceremony settings for couples who want a slightly smaller scale or a more enclosed feeling for their vows, with the mature plantings and garden architecture creating a sense of being held and sheltered that has its own particular beauty and emotional resonance.
choosing the elms mansion means your wedding will be enveloped in the beauty of nature and history.
indoor ceremony options within the mansion itself offer the architectural grandeur of the historic interior spaces as a backdrop, with the original features of the building — the fireplaces, the moldings, the tall windows — creating a setting that feels genuinely ceremonial and significant. For winter weddings or events where the weather requires an indoor plan, the mansion’s interior spaces are fully capable of supporting a beautiful and memorable ceremony.
the backdrop of the elms mansion adds a unique touch to your ceremony, ensuring unforgettable moments.
the reception spaces
the reception spaces at the elm mansion are where the venue’s combination of historic character and thoughtful event design really comes together, creating an environment that is simultaneously grand and warm, impressive and intimate.
the reception spaces at the elms mansion create an inviting atmosphere for your guests to enjoy.
the main reception spaces within and immediately adjacent to the mansion can accommodate a meaningful range of guest counts, making the elm mansion a viable option for both more intimate celebrations and larger, more expansive receptions. The specific capacity will depend on the configuration of your event and the spaces you choose to use, and having a detailed conversation with the venue team about your guest count early in the process will help you understand exactly what is possible and what the best setup for your specific situation looks like.
the flow between the indoor and outdoor spaces of the property is one of the elm mansion’s significant strengths as a reception venue. Guests who can move freely between the atmospheric interior of the historic mansion and the beautiful grounds outside experience the venue in a fuller and more satisfying way than they would if they were confined to a single room for the duration of the evening. This kind of spatial variety and the sense of discovery that comes with it is one of the hallmarks of the most memorable wedding receptions, and the elm mansion is designed to support it naturally.
the lighting of the reception spaces, both the natural light that fills the rooms during the day and early evening and the warm ambient lighting that takes over as the evening progresses, creates an atmosphere that is consistently described by couples and their guests as romantic and magical. There is something about the quality of light in a historic building with original windows and architectural character that no modern event space can replicate, and the elm mansion delivers that quality in full measure.
at the elms mansion, every detail is designed to provide a memorable experience for couples and their guests.
catering and the food and beverage experience
the elm mansion’s approach to catering is something you will want to understand clearly as you begin the planning process, because it will have a direct impact on both the culinary experience of your wedding and the overall budget.
understanding the catering options available at the elms mansion will enhance your culinary experience.
the venue works with preferred and approved caterers who have the experience and the knowledge to execute events within the specific requirements and character of the historic property. This approach gives you meaningful input into the culinary direction of your wedding while ensuring that the catering team is equipped to work within the venue’s particular logistical framework.
rhode island has a food culture that is genuinely distinctive and deeply beloved by its residents, and for couples who want their wedding menu to reflect the culinary identity of the region, the ability to work with local caterers who understand and can execute new england cuisine at its best is a real advantage. Rhode island’s seafood traditions, its portuguese culinary influences that are woven into the fabric of the state’s food culture, its farm-to-table ethos that draws on the region’s agricultural heritage — all of these are things that a skilled local caterer can bring to your wedding table in ways that make the meal feel genuinely connected to the place where you are celebrating.
the elms mansion’s catering partners are committed to showcasing local flavors and culinary excellence.
the question of bar service and beverage programming is something to address specifically with the venue team during your initial conversations, as the arrangements around alcohol service will vary depending on the caterer you choose and the specific licensing and policy framework that applies to your event.
the best seasons to book the elm mansion
each season brings its own beauty to the elms mansion, making it a year-round wedding venue.
new england’s seasons are one of the defining features of life in the region, and each of them brings something distinct and beautiful to a wedding at the elm mansion. Understanding what each season offers will help you make the choice that best aligns with your vision for your wedding day.
summer is the most popular season for weddings throughout rhode island, and the elm mansion is no exception. June, july, and august bring warm temperatures, long evenings, and the full lush green of the new england summer landscape. The grounds of the elm mansion in summer are at their most abundant and their most vibrant, with the full canopy of the elm trees creating that magnificent natural architecture that is one of the property’s defining features. June is particularly beloved for its combination of comfortable temperatures and the fresh, bright quality of the early summer landscape, and it is consistently one of the most in-demand months at the venue.
july and august bring warmer temperatures, and outdoor ceremonies and cocktail hours during the hottest part of a summer afternoon require some thoughtful planning around guest comfort. Evening events during the summer months are generally very pleasant, and the long summer evenings mean that the golden light of sunset can fall during your reception in a way that is genuinely spectacular.
fall is when many couples feel that new england is at its most irreplaceable, and they are absolutely correct. The fall foliage of rhode island and the broader new england region is one of the natural wonders of the american landscape, and experiencing it as the backdrop to your wedding is something that will make your photographs and your memories extraordinary.
september brings the beginning of the color change along with the comfortable temperatures and lower humidity that make it such a popular wedding month. October is when the foliage reaches its peak in most years, and a elm mansion wedding in october with the full fall color of the new england landscape surrounding the property is a visual experience of almost overwhelming beauty.
the elm trees themselves take on a particular magnificence in the fall, their canopy turning to gold against the blue of the october sky, and photographs taken on the grounds during this season have a warmth and a richness of color that is impossible to replicate at any other time of year. October weekends at the elm mansion are among the most sought-after dates on the venue’s calendar, and booking as early as possible is essential if fall is your vision.
november is a transitional month that can offer the lingering beauty of late fall color or the stripped-down, more austere beauty of the new england landscape as it moves toward winter. There is a particular quality to november light in new england that photographers love — low and golden, with long shadows and a warmth of tone that belies the cooling temperatures — and a november wedding at the elm mansion can be genuinely beautiful for couples who embrace the season rather than fighting it.
winter weddings at the elms mansion are particularly magical, creating a romantic atmosphere for your celebration.
winter weddings at the elm mansion are for couples who love new england in its most dramatic and uncompromising form. Rhode island winters are real, and snow is a genuine possibility for december, january, and february events. But a snowy winter wedding at the elm mansion, with the historic building glowing warmly against a white landscape and the bare branches of the elm trees etched against a winter sky, is the kind of thing that produces photographs of extraordinary beauty and a wedding day experience that your guests will never forget.
the interior spaces of the mansion in winter, with fires burning in the original fireplaces and the warm light of the historic rooms contrasting with the cold and dark outside, create an atmosphere of profound coziness and romance that the warmer months simply cannot replicate.
winter months also offer the most favorable pricing and the best availability of any time of year, making them worth serious consideration for couples who are working within a specific budget or who want greater flexibility in their date selection.
discovering the elms mansion can lead to wonderful memories and cherished moments.
spring brings the new england landscape back to life in the most beautiful way, with the flowering trees and early garden blooms creating a freshness and optimism that feels perfectly suited to the occasion of a wedding. April and may can be variable in terms of weather, with the possibility of rain requiring thoughtful contingency planning for outdoor events, but when a new england spring day is beautiful, it is genuinely among the most beautiful things in the natural world. The elm mansion in bloom, with the grounds awakening after winter and the elm trees leafing out against a spring sky, offers a wedding backdrop of considerable charm and beauty.
spring weddings at the elms mansion are a celebration of renewal and beauty, perfect for intimate ceremonies.
pricing and what to expect financially
the elm mansion is a premium wedding venue, and the pricing reflects the quality of the setting, the historical significance of the property, and the overall standard of the experience it provides. As with any venue of this character, the total investment will depend on a range of factors that are specific to your event, including your guest count, the time of year, the day of the week, and the choices you make around catering, bar service, and other components of the celebration.
investing in the elms mansion ensures a premium experience that reflects your wedding vision.
peak season weekends, particularly saturday evenings in october and june, will represent the highest pricing on the venue’s calendar. If you are flexible about the day of the week, friday evening and sunday weddings will typically offer more favorable pricing while still allowing you to access the venue during its most beautiful seasons. Off-peak months, particularly the winter months and very early spring, will offer the most competitive pricing and the greatest availability.
approaching the elm mansion with a wedding budget that is solidly in the mid to upper range of the rhode island wedding market will put you in the right position for initial conversations. The combination of the venue fee and catering costs will represent the largest components of your overall budget, and understanding both of those figures clearly before you commit will allow you to plan the rest of your wedding finances with confidence.
what makes the elm mansion different from newport and providence venues
understanding what the elms mansion offers compared to other venues will guide your decision-making process.
rhode island’s most famous wedding venues are concentrated in newport, where the gilded age mansions and the dramatic coastal setting draw couples from across the country and the world, and in providence, where the city’s architectural beauty and cultural richness make it an appealing urban wedding destination. The elm mansion offers something genuinely different from both of those options, and understanding that difference is important for couples who are trying to figure out where they belong.
newport venues, for all their extraordinary beauty, come with the logistics and the pricing that accompany one of the most popular wedding destinations on the east coast. The competition for the most desirable dates is fierce, the vendor market is priced to reflect that demand, and the overall experience of getting married in newport, while potentially magnificent, can also feel somewhat crowded and commercial for couples who want something more personal and more intimate.
providence venues offer urban sophistication and easy accessibility, but they exist within a city context that is fundamentally different from the pastoral, estate-based experience that the elm mansion provides.
the elm mansion sits in a different register entirely — one that is quintessentially new england in its character without being as widely trafficked or as heavily marketed as the newport corridor, that offers the historic estate experience in a setting of genuine natural beauty, and that allows couples to feel as though they have discovered something rather than chosen from a well-worn menu of obvious options.
for couples who value authenticity, who want their venue to feel personal and discovered rather than simply selected from a list, and who are drawn to the particular beauty of the rhode island countryside rather than its coastline or its urban centers, the elm mansion offers an experience that is genuinely its own.
the elms mansion is the choice for couples who seek authenticity and a personal touch in their wedding venue.
guest experience and the surrounding area
for guests traveling to your elm mansion wedding, rhode island offers a wealth of experiences that will make the trip feel like a genuine getaway rather than just a commute to an event.
rhode island has much to offer, particularly the unique charm of the elms mansion.
providence is one of the great underappreciated american cities, with a vibrant arts and cultural scene, a restaurant culture that is extraordinary for a city of its size, the stunning architecture of college hill, and the famous waterfire installation on the providence river that creates one of the most magical urban experiences in new england on the evenings when it runs. Guests who spend a day in providence before or after your wedding will come away with a genuine affection for the city and a deeper appreciation for the state in which you chose to celebrate.
newport, with its cliff walk, its gilded age mansions open for tours, its beautiful harbor, and its exceptional restaurants, is a natural day trip for out-of-town guests who want to experience the full range of what rhode island has to offer. The drive from smithfield to newport is entirely manageable, and the contrast between the pastoral countryside around the elm mansion and the dramatic coastal setting of newport adds a richness to the overall guest experience.
a trip to the elms mansion allows guests to experience the diversity of rhode island’s charm.
the boston market, just over an hour away, provides an enormous pool of potential guests with easy access to the venue, and t.F. Green airport in warwick offers regional flight connections that make the venue accessible for guests traveling from further afield.
for the couple who wants new england at its most beautiful and most genuine
the elm mansion is the right wedding venue for the couple who loves new england not as a brand or an aesthetic trend but as a genuine place with a genuine history and a genuine character that has been accumulating for centuries. It is for the couple who wants to celebrate in a setting that feels rooted and real, that has the kind of beauty that comes from time and care rather than from a design budget, and that will give their guests the experience of being somewhere that actually matters.
it is for the couple who wants their photographs to look like new england rather than just a beautiful room that could be anywhere, and who understands that the towering elms and the historic facade and the rolling rhode island landscape in the background of their portraits are going to be things they treasure more with every passing year.The elms mansion promises a setting that will enhance your wedding photographs with timeless beauty.
it is for the couple who is willing to look past the most obvious choices in the rhode island wedding market and invest a little more time and attention in finding something that feels genuinely right rather than simply impressive.
if that sounds like you, the elm mansion deserves more than a passing glance on your venue search. It deserves a visit, a conversation with the team, and an afternoon spent walking the grounds and sitting in the rooms and letting the place tell you what it is.
exploring the elms mansion will reveal its unique qualities that make it stand out among venues.
and if your experience is anything like that of the couples who have discovered this remarkable property before you, you will likely find that by the time you leave, you already know it is where you want to get married.
couples find that the elms mansion truly becomes their dream wedding venue after just one visit. |

| Steph Curry goes for gold with his newest sport-comedy, GOAT |
| Posted on Friday, March 06 @ 00:00:11 PST (15 reads) | |
|
|
In her column, iman monnoo ’28 dissects the failures, successes and future direction of animated media.
editor’s note: this article is a review and includes subjective thoughts, opinions and critiques.
the votes are in, folks! In a shocking turn of events, sony pictures’ animated feature “goat” (2026) has come from behind to slam-dunk on “wuthering heights” (2026) in its second weekend at the box office.
when the film opened on feb. 13, it was dropped headfirst into a battle against emerald fennell’s tumultuous romance. Two major features, both released on the same day, both vying for the no. 1 spot — talk about barbenheimer 2.0. But what fans didn’t expect was for sony’s sports-comedy to surpass “wuthering heights” by $3.2 million. In fact, the film is on track to break even before hitting streaming platforms.
the story follows will harris (caleb mclaughlin), a young goat who dreams of becoming the greatest-of-all-time in a basketball-adjacent sport called “roarball.” His goal is to be just like pantheress jett filmore (gabrielle union), a roarball mvp who’s past her playing prime and serves as a fun foil to will’s youthful energy. As the newest recruit on jett’s team, the vineland thorns, will must prove himself to be more than a rookie liability.
over the course of the film, co-directors tyree dillihay and adam rosette welcome viewers into the loveable world of vineland, a city full of — you guessed it — draping vines and anthropomorphic creatures from all walks of life. There’s a kind of warmth emanating from the overgrown forestry that takes up half the land and the beat-up shack our protagonist lives in. The setting feels unique in its potent coloration and distinctly lived-in feel, providing a wonderful backdrop for the film’s sports hijinks.
though this may seem like your classic underdog story, co-producer and nba legend stephen curry added nuance by drawing on his own life experiences. In an interview with people magazine, he said, “i was physically a late bloomer, undersized … when i walked into a gym, i didn’t pass the eye test.” Like curry, will is ridiculed for being “too small” for the big leagues. Of course, this isn’t enough to stop him. After a chance game with an upcoming player, a horse named mane attraction (aaron pierre), will finally gets his big break — going viral online for literally breaking mane’s ankle (and celebratory screaming ensues).
this was the moment i knew “goat” was going to be a success. In the age of brainrot and social media addiction, poking fun at internet references is exactly what reaches a gen alpha audience: if you catch the reference, you’re in on the joke. When will and his two best friends began their unhinged screams, i knew viewers would recognize the callback to the screaming goat videos that blew up in 2012. Evidently, writers aaron buchsbaum and teddy riley understood their audience too: these inclusions are a testament to the care that went into creating the film.
similarly, the animation style felt like an effortful break from what we’ve recently seen from other studios. While disney’s latest hit, “zootopia 2” (2025), used realistic fur, a steady frame rate and naturalistic backdrops, “goat” aligns itself more with the comic-book style of sony’s “spider-verse” series. This works best in the last few scenes when (spoiler alert) will’s league team faces off against mane attraction in a final roarball match. It’s here that the animation team really shows off their skills. The action flits effortlessly from close-ups to longshots; in effect, we get a stylized sense of movement that adds sharpness to the visual language and heightens the sporting drama on screen. The complex animation took over 7 years to complete, but it was worth it.
all of these stylistic devices would feel empty without a strong emotional core. Thankfully, “goat” has us covered: watching will find a family in his league team, jett learn to trust her teammates and vineland regain pride in its players is a high i’m still coming down from.
the moment brought me back to the message erick peyton (ceo of unanimous media and co-producer of the film) delivered at the stanford graduate school business annual future of arts, media and entertainment conference. Peyton spoke of how his journey into film was nonlinear: he had to work his way up the industry ladder by constantly creating stories he was proud of in his college years and later, quite simply, meeting the right people at the right time. During the panel discussion, peyton stressed the importance of representing values like family, faith and sports on screen.
“goat” seems to be the actualization of his ethos, synthesizing these pillars into a wholesome, sports-comedy about grinding to the top and finding love along the way — a tried and tested recipe à la “air bud” (1997) that has once again captured hearts nationwide.
ultimately, the film’s success feels well-deserved: with its action-packed animation, quirky ensemble cast and meme-able screenplay, “goat” definitely lives up to its name. |

| Off Campus Season 2 Is Already Confirmed Before Season 1 Even Airs. Here Is Ever |

Yes, off campus season 2 is officially confirmed. Prime video announced the renewal on february 12, 2026, before season 1 had even aired. The streamer renewed it ahead of its may 2026 global launch across 240 countries and territories. Showrunner louisa levy personally broke the news to the cast on video, telling them they were going “right back on a plane” to set once the season 1 press tour wrapped.
this kind of early renewal is rare, and it says everything. Prime video does not pre-renew series unless internal data, test screenings, or subscriber projections give them serious confidence. For off campus, the combination of elle kennedy’s internationally bestselling source material, an ensemble cast already built out across four future lead couples, and a proven appetite for hockey romance after heated rivalry made the green light a near certainty. This show was designed from day one to run multiple seasons , and the renewal proves the network is following through on that blueprint.
when will off campus season 2 be released? No official release date has been set , but the production timeline offers real clues. Season 1 filmed from june to october 2025 and is premiering in may 2026, roughly a year later. If season 2 follows the same pattern , filming would begin in summer 2026 after the press tour concludes, pointing to a likely may 2027 window. Showrunner louisa levy confirmed production would restart quickly, which supports that estimate.
what will off campus season 2 be about? Season 2 will almost certainly adapt “the mistake,” the second book in elle kennedy’s off-campus series. The story centers on hockey junior john logan, who has a one-night encounter with freshman grace ivers and makes a thoughtless mistake that pushes her away. When they reunite the following year, grace refuses to make it easy , giving logan a demanding list of tasks he must complete before she will even consider a second chance. It is a slow-burn redemption arc with real emotional stakes.
who is in the cast of off campus season 2? The core ensemble is locked in as series regulars. Ella bright, belmont cameli, mika abdalla, stephen kalyn, antonio cipriano, jalen thomas brooks, and josh heuston are all confirmed to return. Antonio cipriano, who plays john logan, steps into the lead romantic role for season 2 , a casting decision that was baked into the show from the start. A new actress will need to be cast as grace ivers, the female lead for the logan storyline, as she is not introduced in season 1.
who plays john logan in off campus? Antonio cipriano plays john logan , a recurring presence in season 1 who becomes the central romantic lead for season 2. Cipriano is best known for his roles in pretty little liars: original sin and national treasure: edge of history. In the books, logan is the charming, seemingly carefree hockey player hiding a difficult home situation, including an alcoholic father and a looming sense that his post-graduation future looks nothing like his teammates’ . That emotional depth is what separates his arc from a typical bad-boy redemption story.
how is off campus season 2 different from season 1? The show operates like a bridgerton-style ensemble , where each season spotlights a different couple from the same core friend group. Season 1 follows hannah and garrett’s opposites-attract dynamic. Season 2 shifts the spotlight to logan and grace, a more complicated pairing built on a prior mistake, wounded pride, and grace holding all the leverage . Steve howey, who plays garrett’s father phil graham, is written into the second book as well, so his role may carry forward into the new season.
who are the showrunners and producers? Louisa levy created the series and co-showruns alongside gina fattore. The production is backed by temple hill, the banner behind the twilight films and the fault in our stars, with wyck godfrey and marty bowen executive producing. James seidman, leanna billings, and neal flaherty also hold executive producer credits. Elle kennedy herself is a producer on the series , which is not always the case with book adaptations and signals genuine creative involvement from the source material’s author.
where can you watch off campus season 2? Off campus is a prime video original , so season 2 will stream exclusively on amazon’s platform when it arrives. The show is available in over 240 countries and territories worldwide, making it one of prime video’s global rollouts rather than a region-limited release. No theatrical component or linear broadcast deal has been announced. Subscribers with a standard prime video subscription will be able to stream it at no additional cost when it launches.
will there be more seasons beyond season 2? The off-campus book series has five installments , meaning the show has a clear runway if audiences show up. Season 1 covers the deal, season 2 covers the mistake, and the subsequent books follow dean di laurentis in the score and tucker in the goal. Stephen kalyn and jalen thomas brooks, already cast and confirmed as series regulars , are the leads of those future seasons respectively. A fifth book and a novella collection called briar u exist as well, giving the writers additional material for a potential endgame season.
what makes off campus different from other hockey romance shows? The timing matters more than people realize. Off campus arrives after heated rivalry built real audience appetite for sports-set romantic drama on streaming. But where heated rivalry skewed toward an older, more niche readership, off campus is positioned as mainstream college soap territory , closer to one tree hill than a prestige drama. Each season functions as a standalone romance while building a shared universe across briar university, which lowers the barrier to entry for new viewers who missed earlier seasons.
why the off campus universe has more staying power than most what tends to separate adaptation fatigue from genuine franchise momentum is whether the source material was architected for serialization or just retrofitted into it. Elle kennedy’s off-campus books were written from the start as companion novels in a shared world, with overlapping casts and emotional continuity across stories. Prime video is not retrofitting a standalone novel into a multi-season arc.
they are working from a blueprint that already exists , with couples pre-built, recurring characters carrying real weight, and a fan base that has spent a decade knowing exactly which story comes next. That structural advantage is rare, and it is the real reason the renewal happened before a single episode aired. |
