Dear Donald Trump

I'm sorry but did you REALLY think that just because she works in adult film it's okay for her to be sexual harrassed?

Dear Donald Trump

Before anyone reads to far into this, let me make myself clear. This is not to say I do or don't support Trump. I am a firm believer that each person has a right to a private vote and I do plan on keeping the way. This is for me to address the fact that it's okay to support someone who has done wrong. What's not okay is to treat either canidate like they have not done wrong. The sooner people stop putting Trump and Hillary on a pedastol the sooner people with stop with this crazy election bullshit. Hillary is not perfect, I am FULLY aware. It is sad that I have to mention this, but I am also fully aware, that if I didn't the first comment I would receiver would be "Well Hillary isn't any better" So now that that is out of the way, I want to discuss the topic that is actual causing me to write so fact my fingers my catch fire.

I read and article online,http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-on-ad... and honestly, to put it lightly, I'm livid. Now for those of you who don't feel like reading an article within an article, or haven't turn on a TV in the past week, basically, an adult fllm star Jessica Drake has accused Donald Trump of "grabbing each of us tightly, in a hug and kissed each one of us without asking permission," said Drake. Donald then released a statement saying sarcastically, "Oh, I'm sure she's never been grabbed before." Now, who knows if she's telling the truth. I get it, people can lie. That's honestly besides the point, for now. The point I want to address first is the fact that just because she is an adult film star DOES NOT mean men get to touch her without permission

So Trump voters, let me explain something. You can support Trump and not support some of his actions. PLEASE don't be so naive to say after these accusations that you support Trump for what he said. Please don't be so close minded. Please, have a heart. If you genuinely believe that a woman or man should be subjected to sexual harrassment just based on the fact on what their occupation is? Shame on you. I'll be praying for you.

Now I know Trump won't see this, but I hope someone has had enought guts to tell him - If it didn't happen I COMPLETELY understand why you would say "listen, it didn't happen" and firmly explain your side, because if it isn't true she does deserve reprocutions to the fullest, but to say something like that sarcastically? How fucking dare you. Do you know how many people you effect with your words? YOU ARE A PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE. Do not brush of an allegation like this simply because of her occupation. By the way if this is true? She turned down 10,000 to NOT sleep with you, so even being an adult film star, having sex for a living, she didn't want to sleep with you. Nice.

Ever sexual assualt should be taken as seriously as the last, and as the next. I understad it's hard to believe everyone. I understand people lie. BUT think of it from my perspective, if your daughter, sister, mother, dad, brother, son accussed someone of sexually assaulting them and the person they accused responded with "Yeah well I'm sure this isn't the first time, they're a whore." Go ahead, tell me you wouldn't punch that person in the face.

Again, this isn't me taking a political stance on social media, honestly I laugh at some of those who do, this is me saying that no matter what job you have, it doesn't give anyone the right to touch you without permission. This also is to address the fact that you can like Trump for his platform and not agree with how he handles most of the situations thatg have been brought up. Don't be spineless. Don't change your values based on some asshole. Just be more compassionate to situations. Open your eyes people, standing with eachother, not against.

Lastly, for anyone who has been in a situation where noone believed them. I'm so sorry. I'm sorry our world is so messed up. I'm sorry that people aren't understanding. And I'm sorry that someone made you feel weak and powerless. Prayers for change and prayers for people who need someone to believe in them.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
