For many adults my age, a lot of us grew up watching 'SpongeBob Squarepants' and well half of us probably still enjoy watching it.

So here are 12 ways 'Spongebob Squarepants' shows how much adulting can actually suck.

1. Having a day off from work and doing nothing cause well you deserve it.


When in reality you actually have a lot to do.

2. Not even getting out of bed and already realizing its already a bad day.

It's always a bad day when you have to get out of bed.

3. Coming home from work/school and stuffing your face with food.

You literally find anything you have even if it's leftovers.

4. Inviting friends over and realizing your place is a total disaster.

Reason 100 not to have friends or invite anyone over.

5. When you get paid and feel that you're worth a million bucks.

When literally all of your paychecks go to bills.

6. Having only one friend and that friend being busy and not being able to hang out.


Well... I guess I'll hang out with myself.. again.

7. Staying in for the night only because well... you go out every weekend... and your bank account is in the negatives now.

And also because your favorite show is on.

8. Having friends who are pregnant or getting engaged and you're still single.

Yeah.... this is just gross.

9. Having people remind you of all of the embarrassing things you did while you were drunk.


The past is the past... so let's please forget it...

10. Not knowing the difference between a touchdown and a home run but still rooting for your school's team...

But hey! You still have school spirit so that's something.

11. Having someone ask you directions and you don't even know where you are going...


"East? I thought you said wheast" -Patrick Star

12. And finally realizing that growing up sucks and that days just turn into blobs.


We are just trying to get by... that's all.

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.

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.
