7 Things To Do Now That the Apocalypse Has Arrived
Pieter Bruegel the Elder

Now that the United States has followed Britain into this weird, nihilistic satire of what we used to love so dearly, the nightmare is just beginning. So, here's seven things you can do to alleviate the pain of existing in this nightmare world that we ourselves created.

1. Liquidize your assets.

I honest-to-God have no idea what the hell this means, but it sounds smart and everybody who tells me to do is a balding, middle-aged white guy in a power suit, so clearly it's the right idea.

2. Sell all your grandmother’s heirlooms.

There's nothing left worth fighting for, including sentimentality and moral integrity, So, f**k it. Just gather up everything your grandmother once cherished and auction them off to the highest bidder. Nothing matters, and that includes emotional attachment to anything. You're already the family disappointment anyway. Time to prove 'em right.

3. Burn all your old "Now That's What I Call Music" CDs as a sacrifice to the Ancient Ones.

They saw you bought them. They judged you. But now it's time to beg for forgiveness, for we have angered them.

4. Drink, drink, drink.

You're going to die, your loved ones will die and your liver will die, too. Go ahead and ruin everything you once held sacred. God has left this place for good.

5. Date indiscriminately.

Why not, right? Dating is hard enough as it is without the looming threat of a ruined world hanging over your shoulder. It's your last chance for a relationship, or for any semblance of the happiness that you once felt but have long since forgotten.

6. Post angry status updates on social media.

Duh.

7. Just fling yourself into the f**king sun.

We will all perish with nothing to show for the astronomically insignificant existence we once claimed mattered.

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.

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.
