Every other Saturday night, volunteers at DC Rawhides turn Eastern Market’s North Hall into a hoedown bursting with queer joy. Cowboy boots, some more authentic than others, stomp in lockstep across a temporary parquet dance floor to “Mambo Shuffle,” “Canadian Stomp,” and crowd favorite, “Shivers.”Since its founding more than a decade ago, Rawhides has been hosting queer country western dances across the District.

If you’re looking for a refreshing, antiheroic sports anime that will overturn your perception of soccer and teamwork, Blue Lock is guaranteed to have you “locked-in.” After two years of anticipation, Blue Lock finally released its second season on Oct. 5. However, an increase in plot intensity has coincided with a decrease in production quality. After such a strong first season, will Blue Lock be able to continue its legacy and captivate its audience? Or is this the start of its downfall?

The writing was on the wall: it was time for a fresh start. With four straight losing seasons in the rearview mirror, Georgetown turned to first-time head coach Tasha Butts, seeking a new coach who could rewrite the script for the struggling Hoyas. In her short time on the Hilltop, she exceeded all external expectations. Butts brought in the sort of gritty, determined mentality characteristic of her own collegiate coach, the legendary Pat Summit.

When author Curtis Chin says that his family’s restaurant is the Chinese restaurant, he comes prepared with the numbers to defend his claim — including an egg roll tally of at least 10 million, 60 years of business ownership, and a new memoir that includes 24 stories of a childhood shaped by its four walls. Chin visited campus on Thursday, Jan. 25 for a book talk co-hosted by the Vietnamese Student Association and the Asian American Student Association (AASA).

The Georgetown women’s basketball program finds itself in a state of a flux after an inconsistent 2022-23 campaign. Last season was punctuated by some incredible highs and painful lows for the team as they went 14-17 overall (6-14 BIG EAST). Perhaps their finest performance of the season came in their first game against the No. 4 UConn Huskies, a game they lost by only single digits.

The mighty Gigántico, as this wrestler is known in the world of lucha libre, thunders back and forth across the ring as the twinkling opening piano riff of “I Will Survive” plays out.

The day I graduated high school, I opened Instagram to find a picture of myself, donning cap and gown, on the school system’s story. I was elated to have my five seconds of fame, and it wouldn’t be the last time something like this happened. Throughout my time at Georgetown so far, I have found my picture in newsletters for clubs and campus events on several occasions—even for clubs I am not a member of and events I only popped in to for a few minutes.

Eiichiro Oda took 26 years to write and illustrate One Piece. Had I read the whole thing in one sitting, without eating or sleeping, it would only have taken me just over a week, but I still had a life to live. So, given its 1090 chapters and counting, I would consider the eight months it took me to read it a reasonable amount of time. One Piece is a manga about Luffy, a boy made out of rubber, who decides he will claim the titular “One Piece” treasure and name himself King of the Pirates.
