Australians Are Immortal Now That They've Removed Their Only Weakness

Were they right about the gun ban after all?

After a gunman shot and killed 35 people in Port Arthur, Australia in 1996, the Australian government was quick to enact severely restrictive gun laws.

Since then, there have been no gun deaths in Australia. In fact, there have been no deaths whatsoever. After the gun control laws were put in place, Australians have miraculously ceased to die altogether. Australian elderly are currently writhing in endless pain as they continue to live year after year past their lifespans' ends, with the current oldest human alive being a man named Terry Dungworth, approaching his 130th birthday,

"My life has been ruined and my agony knows no bounds. Why did those government mates enact a gun ban? I just want to die."
Terry Dungworth, oldest man alive.

As of the death statistic rocketing to a 0.00 (+/- 0.00) per capita, crime has also decreased to an all-time low. Now that bullets simply bounce off of Australians' skins, criminals have lost the capacity to commit crime and have willfully surrendered their assault rifles and weapons of mass destruction to their local police stations. Even criminals who have never held a gun in their life, and used clubs and knives instead, have turned themselves in.

"It was the darndest thing. The second that the gun restrictions went up, every person on every wanted list suddenly showed up begging to be cuffed because they realized they just couldn't commit crime with guns or any violent object ever again. Really makes you think, why didn't we ban guns sooner?"
Blanch Curdletoes, chief of police force in Port Arthur.

Australians have now become a force to be feared. Their newborns are muscular and their old are wise beyond their years. No man-made weapon will be able to stop these behemoths. During the 2016 election, Hillary Clinton addressed the situation in Australia and said that she would "consider" it, and to that I say: we might have no choice but to enact similar gun laws in the United States. If we're to stand any chance against the immortal horrors who will inevitably attack and take over the rest of the world, we must fight fire with fire and ban all guns.

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.

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.
