17 Things I Feel About The Presidential Election

I think most of us can agree that this election cycle so far has been the craziest it has ever been. The republicans started out with 1,000,000 candidates and is about to pick the loudest and most obnoxious of all their choices (Sarah Palin would win on the obnoxious scale if she was running). The democrats haven't done any better. They had to visit some poor loony bin in the northeast to find three of their candidates and they even put in a closet republican (Jim Webb, I mean come on that guy was hardly a democrat). Now that the field is narrowed and, in my humble opinion, the only good choices for either party are now gone! I can't imagine myself defending any of the three stooges the republicans have running (sorry Kasich, you're done), or supporting Hillary Corruption or the old angry Muppet, Here are 17 things I feel about politics.

1. When I weigh the pros and cons of the candidates...

There is just no good side.

2. I think this might be a better option

It's not much different than what's being offered

3. When I considered the possibility of Bernie Sanders

I would like to feel the Bern drop out of the race

4. Seriously, I can't look at the guy without thinking...

Also, one of the old angry Muppets that sits in the balcony

5. When some one asks me who I support....

Eh...

6. My response to "What about Hillary?"

Just say no


7. Why aren't you voting for Ted Cruz?

Do you really think Kevin would make a good president?

8. Or Rubio?

Domo arigato Mr. Rubio

9. Just seeing any news about the election...

Just change the channel

10. I try and talk about it but I just end up even more upset...

Stupidity makes me upset...

11. So I'm done with politics

So done.

12. So any time it gets brought up, I'm out

I guess I could just watch Star Wars or something.

13. I really just don't know what to think anymore

I'm as confused as Hillary is about her emails

14. But I do know that this is America...

I love me some 'Merica

15. And we need to vote...

It's our duty

16. So pick your crap pile

Literally all crap no matter how much you shine it

17. And get out there and vote!

(Insert apathetic thumbs up andsmile)

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.
