7 Things You Can Do If Donald Trump Becomes President

Donald Trump is not going to be the president of The United States of America (rightt?!?!), but here is a list of things you can do if that day ever shall come (it's not going to... right??!!?).


1. TRAVEL!!!

This is probably the most perfect time to the leave the United States, and travel for an extended period of time. If you want to be cool about it, only travel to Spanish speaking countries and countries with a large Muslim population. Also, if you end up liking one of the countries that you visited, you have every right to just stay there.

Here is a list that can get you started: http://www.buzzfeed.com/capitalone/15-places-you-s...

2. Bake Cookies and Never Leave Your Home


Step 1 is to be inside at all times, but step 2 is to do something that will make you happy, and baking cookies would be the ideal task. Here is a great recipe to follow: http://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/ultimate-choco...

3. Put on Those Headphones and Listen to Music (forever)

I'm a big fan of this option. There are many playlists and beautiful albums out there that can do this. I suggest starting with listening to albums such as: Are You Experienced (Hendrix), Innervisions (Wonder), Black Messiah (D'Angelo), 808s & Heartbreaks (Kanye), Everything that Frank Sinatra has ever put out into the music world, Choose Your Weapon (Hiatus Kaiyote), Blood (Lianna La Havas).... See?? I just supplied you with hours of music.

4. Go To Sleep

This option is quite easy. Not much explaining to do here. Just close your eyes and go into a deep sleep.

5. Get Drunk On A Regular Basis

I don't condone alcoholism, and I very much realize that its a disease. However, if Donald Trump becomes president, I suggest to take out that bottle of wine more frequently (you are going to need it) (we are all going to need it).

6. Watch Episodes of Celebrity Apprentice

I highly suggest you watch Celebrity Apprentice, except there is one caveat--every time Trump shows up on the screen: drink and/or throw something at the TV.

7. If Trump actually becomes president (which he won't right??!?!), sign all of the change.org petitions that will come your way.

If this monstrosity becomes president, I can only assume that the amount of change.org petitions to get him impeached will be overwhelming. But I don't care if it's overwhelming, sign every damn one of those petitions.

--------------------------------------

I guess the underlying message of this article is: YOU ARE AN AMERICAN CITIZEN, EXERCISE YOUR VOTE. Many people have fought for your right to vote (especially women and African-Americans), so do the right thing, and vote wisely.

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.
