Annually, from September 16th to September 23rd, organizations and members of the LGBTQ+ community celebrate the bisexual+ community. The last day of celebrations is also the international bisexuality+ day. Bisexual+ Awareness Week seeks to accelerate the acceptance of the bi+ community, meaning identities such as bisexual, pansexual, fluid, no label, queer, etc. It draws attention to the experiences of bi people, while also celebrating the resiliency of the bisexual+ community.

Proof that every character in Barbie Fairytopia 2: Mermaidia is queer (Student Submission)

2024-2025, Archives

(This text contains spoilers for the movie Fairytopia 2: Mermaidia) As a queer person, I often look back to my childhood and wonder if there was any clue that I would end up this way, before I even knew what a gay person was. Was there any indication in the way I acted, the music I liked, the games I played or the movies I watched? I will never know for sure until the time machine is invented, but I believe that my favorite movie at the time being Barbie Fairytopia 2: Mermaidia is no coincidence. Upon rewatching, I realised…

Take Me Back To Eden Album Review (Student Submission)

2024-2025, Archives

Who is Sleep Token? Sleep Token on paper is a metal band, but if you listen to even a single one of their songs, you realize that “metal” doesn’t really cover it. The band is its very own genre, pulling from rock, metal, techno, classical and even rap from time to time! The band started off in 2016 and self-published their first EP simply titled One. The small album contains three songs, with “Thread the Needle” releasing prior to the rest of the EP. They signed with Basick Record for their second EP, Two, also containing three songs in 2017.…

2023-2024, Archives

The SLCSA is St. Lawrence’s student association. Its main goal is to make sure that every student at St. Lawrence gets the most out of his or her cégep experience.

Men’s Wellness Bursary

2022-2023, Archives

by Alicia Harvey, Syed S. Ali and the help of Shirley Jobson (social worker) All around the world, men are found to be more reluctant to talk about their mental health than women. According to the World Health Organization, “males die by suicide at twice the rate of females” [1]. There are many reasons why men experience difficulty in seeking help for their mental health. While awareness on the importance of mental health has grown in the past few years, men may still view mental health problems as a flaw. Consequently, this leads to trouble when speaking about their mental…

Twelfth Night: A Review

2022-2023, Archives

Submitted anonymously to the Lions' Log On March 30th, 31st and April 1st, the SLC Theater Troupe presented an adaptation of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, and I have only one way to describe the event: well-coordinated. The actors delivered fantastic performances. Their acting skills made the audience believe they were in a true Shakespeare universe. The emotions presented were well delivered and submerged the audience entirely in the roles performed. This was especially the case with the actress interpreting Olivia. Her fine acting made one believe she was the actual Olivia. I enjoyed it when she tried to seduce Viola because…

A Night of Mystery

2022-2023, Archives

*Submitted to The Lions' Log anonymously* I’ll be the first to admit it, I'm not a party person. As much as I've tried to convince myself otherwise or as much as alcohol has made me do wild, wild things I have never been and will never be a “partier.” I mostly conform to the nerdy type of person who loves, and I mean loves, going to Staples and bookstores. This time, I wanted a change. I just turned eighteen a couple of months ago and had never been to a bar or nightclub. I then figured, “Why not? Maybe I…

The Police, “Don’t Stand So Close To Me” A great song with amazing vocals and a title that applies perfectly to the current context. 13). Alphaville, “Forever Young” A song about eternal youth that does not necessarily make one want to dance their shoes off, but this is for people who think they are wasting the best time of their lives due to the pandemic,…
