The day after we all gather around the table with family and friends to be thankful for what we have, we rush out to stores and get things our loved ones "need" for Christmas. Ironic right? Well there are many different stages of Black Friday, here are just a few as told by your favorite shows..

1. The Hunt

Black Friday is NOT the day you want to go out and hope to find the best deal. This shopping spree takes days if not weeks to plan out to make sure you hit all the good sales at the correct time, and that means spending hours with the ads

2. Preparation

After you've spent time circle things in literally every ad its time to assemble your team and make a game plan. What stores to hit and when, finding out what time the mall actually opens, even down to scheduling bathroom visits because this is not a joke guys!

3. Making it through Thanksgiving

Remember to skip the turkey if, at all possible, it will only make you tired..

4. Heading out

Get ready its time! Make sure you have all your flyers and maps of the best deals.

5. Shopping

Finally all the preparation is put into action because ITS GAME TIME! Go crazy!

6. Crowds

You've all seen the news after Black Friday, this one needs no explanation

7. Finishing

Finally 50+ stores later you're done. Time to see how much damage was done to your bank account

8. Regret

Get ready for those overdraft fees..

9. Acceptance

Where else would you find those deals? And all your Christmas shopping is finally done

10. Excitement


Now you can actually be excited for Christmas without stress!

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.

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.
