50 Things I'd Rather Do Than Read More Articles and Posts About the 2016 Presidential Election
ListSurge

Almost every post on social media is about who to vote for or why this candidate should/shouldn't become president of the United States. People go into in-depth political arguments on Facebook like they're actually a part of the Democratic or Republican national debate. And personally I would prefer not to read any more rants about Trump or Hillary. There are many more things I'd rather do with my time, and here are 50 of them.

1. Sing against Beyonce on a live television competition
2. Re-watch the Twilight Movies, again and again

3. Listen to my own voice on recordings

4. Donate my eye to Fetty Wap


5. Have the worst hangover for a month straight

6. Live with Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag

7. Have my first kiss played in a movie theater

8. Teach the generation above me how to use modern technology

9. Sail the ocean... on a life raft

10. Be on a liquid diet

11. Eat gum from the bottom of chairs

12. Be the third wheel for the rest of my life

13. Watch "50 Shades of Grey:" with my whole family

14. Actually read instruction manuals, to anything

15. Listen to raps on Sound Cloud from boys who think they'll make it

16. Spend all summer with the worst sunburn

17. Go shopping on Black Frida

18. Pay $9.99 to remove the ads on Spotify

19. Pluck my eyelashes

20. Meet every person I match with on Tinder

21. Clean a frat house the morning after a party

22. Get in the ring against John Cena

23. Have Edward Scissorhands give me a fully body massage

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.
