The vertical scroll format has taken over every corner of the internet—TikTok, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat all offer the opportunity of full-screen doomscrolling. With the flick of a thumb, users can go from footage of a civilian pleading for mercy as an ICE agent slams them onto the ground to a video of an influencer opening mountains of PR packages. Another swipe and—oh, look! An AI-generated video of Diddy and Jeffrey Epstein battling it out on Epstein island! With the Internet, we’re being fed content in a way never seen before—a way that has made it all too easy to forget the true impact behind the content we see.

Many teenagers have began to feel numb towards these headlines—almost as if social media conditioned our generation to lose the sense of shock. When reports of shootings and robberies are normalized through the small rectangle screen, viewers begin to feel as if this is the “standard” of how our world works.

1. On January 16th, fans of indie music around the world rejoiced as popular indie artist Mitski officially announced the release date of her new album, “Nothing’s About to Happen to Me, ” after teasing the arrival with the release of her new single, “Where’s My Phone?”
The eighth addition to Mitski’s discography came out on February 27th, with mainly positive reviews from critics and fans. In its first week since being released, the album has gotten over 37 million streams on Spotify. But it poses the question: does her new album live up to all the hype it’s received?

2. Formerly the tenth member of the 12-piece South Korean girl group LOONA, Chuu began her solo music endeavors in late 2023. Admittedly, I hadn’t been keeping up with her work as much as the other former LOONA members. During her time in LOONA, Chuu had served as the bright, energetic member. Chuu’s retained her vibrancy in her solo music for the most part.. Despite this, her musical identity has always felt a little flimsy. I’d enjoyed her discography, but none of her songs really stuck with me, so I was excited to hear her plans for a studio album.
Released January 7th, “XO, My Cyberlove” serves some of Chuu’s best songs while also serving some of her worst;some tracks absolutely changed my life, while others feel more like dull filler.

On February 26th, Lincoln’s varsity boys basketball team defeated the Lowell Cardinals in a 63-58 thriller to claim the AAA League CIF San Francisco City Section title.
Coming into playoffs, Lincoln boasted a record of ten wins and two losses in league games, good enough for the one seed, while Lowell stood behind with eight wins and four losses, good enough for the two seed.
Lincoln and Lowell crossed paths once prior to meeting in the SFS title game during the regular season. The encounter ended in a 23 point blowout loss for the Mustangs, in what Coach Carl Jacobs considers “one of the worst loss of [his] career.”

On February 20th, Sara Falls, Lincoln’s AP Literature and Composition teacher, walked onto the stage of the Little Theater packed with families, classmates, and teachers to announce the opening of the annual Hamlet showcase complete with fist fights, corporate break downs, and brooding monologues.
Each year, Falls’ AP Literature and Composition and European Literature students are tasked with performing a scene from Hamlet to demonstrate their understanding and provide their analysis of the text. As students came and went off stage, the amount of practice they put in showed as different groups performed their unique scenes.

*Update* Lincoln won second place in the Raiders competition!
The Raiders competition hosted at John McClaren Park tests speed, strength, and agility through teamwork-required obstacles to replicate military-style physical training; the team members take away more than military training from the competition: a call for self-improvement and community empowerment.
The 14 members—ten male and four female—competed in the Cross-Country Rescue, a first aid test, a Physical Training Test, a rope bridge crossing, and a five kilometer run.

Nails, screws, and apples; these items make for an unlikely trio, but for four Lincoln students who dub themselves “The Keepers,” the metal instruments and red fruits incite a unique project out in the cafeteria courtyard.
The vision came to fruition in late January; The Keepers chose apples for their accessibility and intended for them to represent the ALHS community. The apples were gathered from the cafeteria and pierced into one of the trees periodically, slowly forming a spiral shape around the trunk. Over the course of the project, the tree gathered several miscellaneous objects, some from outside parties, like Pokemon cards and a tip jar. The Keepers, who requested to remain anonymous, chronicled the development of the tree on their Instagram page, .
The Keepers began the project in hopes of beautifying the area and bringing the school community together. Keeper Two, a freshman at Lincoln, was motivated to “bring smiles and joy to the people suffering in school” through their work.

Lincoln’s Black Student Union holds first Black History Month assembly in five years

For the first time in almost five years, Lincoln hosted a Black Student Union assembly in honor of Black History Month. The assembly opened to a drum performance as students filtered into the auditorium and found their seats. The performance featured student speakers, dances, poems by prominent Black poets, and trivia on Black history.
