9 Moments You'll Totally Understand If You Swear A Lot
NBC

As a wise woman once said, "I love Jesus, but I cuss a little" and I feel that deep within my soul. When I say a little, I mean a lot. I don't know when I started speaking the devil's language, but I like to think I've turned it into an art form. Living life as a potty mouth can be tricky sometimes; here are some moments I'm sure we have all run into at some point:

1. Anytime someone tells you to watch your mouth

I'm an adult. I can do what I want. I mean, I'll stop because I hate confrontation but only because it was MY CHOICE.

2. The first time you accidentally swear in front of your parents

It sends you through a lot of emotions: fear, regret, shame. Will you be taken out of the will? Do you just act like you didn't do anything?

3. The 458th time you "accidentally" swear in front of your parents

Honestly, who's surprised now? I mean, I'm sorry, mother, never again.

4. When you find out one of your new friends curses just as much as you do

What is the f*ck up my friend?

5. When you drop the F bomb around a new group of people

WAS THAT OKAY? SHOULD I HAVE DONE THAT?

6. When you're around kids and you just CANNOT DO IT

You're doing whatever it takes to not drop a couple of bombs. Now's the time to start getting creative with your language.

7. When someone tells you that cursing "isn't cute"

Do you think I'm doing this because I want to be cute? Unless you're my mother/any other family member, hush.

8. After a long day, you come back to hang out with your friends and just B*TCH together

Let it out; you deserve it. Being polite and respectful is hard sometimes.


I should probably work on my mouth, but what are we going to do? I hope other people found these moments just as #relateable as I did!

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.
