"All-American Bitch" is a 2023 song by American singer-songwriter Olivia Rodrigo (pictured) from her second studio album, Guts. Lyrically, it is satire and explores Rodrigo's concerns about society's double standards and contradictory expectations for women. Rodrigo co-wrote the song with its producer, Dan Nigro, and believed it captured feelings repressed since age 15. It begins as a folk song and transitions into pop-punk during the chorus, incorporating influences of punk, rock, grunge, and pop rock. "All-American Bitch" was viewed as a successful opening track that appealed to Generation Z by music critics, who praised Rodrigo's vocals and the production. The song reached number 13 in the US and the top 10 in Australia, Ireland, and New Zealand. Rodrigo performed it on Saturday Night Live, where she stabbed a red-colored cake at a tea party and splattered it on her face; the performance received positive reviews. She also included it on the set list of the 2024–2025 Guts World Tour. (Full article...)

The True Record was a pictorial magazine published in Shanghai, China, between June 1912 and March or April 1913. The magazine was established by brothers Gao Qifeng and Gao Jianfu as the nascent Republic of China was seeking to develop a new culture after centuries of Qing rule. It sought to monitor the new republic, report the welfare of the people, promote socialism, and distribute world knowledge. Under the Gaos and fellow editor Huang Binhong, the magazine published seventeen issues and expanded its reach from China through Southeast Asia to Hawaii. Supportive of Sun Yat-sen and the nationalist movement, the magazine was critical of Provisional President Yuan Shikai and closed during a time when he was consolidating his power. Articles covered such topics as art, current events, technology and politics. Despite having been published for less than one year, The True Record has been described as one of the most important illustrated magazines of the first years of the Republic of China.

Michael Tritter is a fictional character in the medical drama series House, played by David Morse (pictured). The main antagonist of the third season (2006–07), Tritter is a police detective who tries to get Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie) to apologize for leaving him with a thermometer in his rectum. After House refuses, Tritter discovers his Vicodin addiction, and forces him to go to rehab. The character was created as somebody who could go "toe-to-toe" with House. Morse, who had never seen the show before, was unsure if he could portray the character. The excited reaction of his friends convinced him to take the role. Initial critical responses were mostly positive, but critics later felt that the six-episode Tritter story arc became boring. Morse, though, was praised for his portrayal and received an Emmy nomination. He stated in a 2006 TV Guide interview that, although he had discussed it with the show's writers, reprising the character would be "practically impossible". (Full article...)
