Best Ways To Get Over The Election
LA Times

The election is over. You have to accept it, right? If you're having a hard time, here are some ways for you to move on and learn to accept that Donald Trump is not everyone's president.

1. Be white

This is a sure-fire way to move on. The election isn't going to affect you. Everything is find. Plus, no one will threaten to hang and/or deport you.

2. Be straight and cis-gendered.

This is great because you can express love for your partner freely and go into a bathroom without fear!

3. Be a male.

If you don't like being sexually assaulted, be a male! It's the best.

4. Be a Christian.

Don't like having the fear of being choked by your hijab? Convert to Christianity!

5. Have a full-time job that pays a living wage (which is easier if you are one or all the above).

If you don't have a full-time job, that's okay. All you need is parents that can pay for everything!

6.Tell people they are being over dramatic.

Honestly though, get over it already.

7. Re-tweet all of Donald Trump’s tweets about how unfair the protests are.

RT: @realDonaldTrump Just had a very open and successful presidential election. Now professional protesters, incited by the media, are protesting. Very unfair!

8. Pretend you weren’t pissed that Obama was elected in 2008.

This didn't even happen.

9. Tell people that he is everyone’s president.

This is extra effective if you tell them to "get the hell out" if they disagree with you.

10. Go write “Make America White Again” on anything and everything you can.

Vandalism is key. Swastikas also help.

11. Yell slurs at any person that does not look like you.

So, if there is someone that is black, female, Muslim, Latinx, or any other minority, feel free to unleash all of your hatred on them.

12. Have a token minority friend.

Look at my black friend over there.

13. Be okay when a cop stops you.

Guns are the best. Good guys with guns, stop bad guys with guns.

14. Make people respect your opinion because it’s just politics.

All politicians threaten to deport or assault people, obviously.

So remember, there is nothing you can do to change the outcome of the election so GET OVER IT!

Or don't, because it's terrifying.

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.
