10 Thought We All Have When On Facebook
Huffington Post

1. Oh look, another FarmVille request... *ignore*

We all get our notifications flooded with them. “Help Betsy earn 50 more coins!” “Betsy invites YOU to play Candy Crush!” Thanks Betsy but for the hundredth time, no.

2. I'm going to share this recipe video but I know I'll never actually attempt it

A beautiful hand crafted apple pie with crust in the form a rose, *share*. But we both know it's not going to happen.

3. Should I comment?

When scrolling through all the drama, rants and specifically political opinions we have to pick our battles. We all have an opinion, but choose the time wisely.

4. Why do I even get on here?

Scrolling Facebook can be upsetting, sad, and flat out agitating, but we all routinely get on and scroll through the nonsense. Whether for entertainment, news, or one reason or another, we have all come across a dog video that made us cry or a post that got us heated.

5. “Betsy tagged you in a photo”

You hope it isn't another of you from your emo stage in middle school. But you know it is. *Untag*

6. Wow, Betsy has changed a lot.

Probably my favorite thing about Facebook is seeing how people you used to know are doing in life. Your high school friends getting married, having babies, doing heroin and you get to see it all without even talking to them!

7. I want to share this but I can't because my family will shun me

You know exactly what I am talking about.

8. Oh my word I have been on here for 2 hours

We all get sucked in so deep that we're lost in a trance. You take a second to think about why you're stalking your friend's mother’s cousin’s grandchild and then scrape your eyes off of your phone.

9. Should I give it a ‘love’ or a ‘haha’ reaction?

It doesn't matter, you know, I know it, we all know it.

10. Ayyy Facebook comment fight, let me stick my nose in and smell what's up

Sometimes, especially recently, the comment section can get spicy. We are all guilty of getting a little pleasure out of a good heated argument that you aren't aren't a part of.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
