Jack Bauer For President

I mean, he's better than the others.

Jack Bauer For President
Arevakov

This country is in a difficult place. Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton? I'm sure some reading this are heavy favorites of one or the other, but the majority of us - both left, right, and up the middle, aren't particularly fond of either one. This country needs a leader, someone who will go out and defend us with everything they have. We need someone who isn't afraid, both as a leader and as a person. When I think of the person that should be our President, I think no further than Jack Bauer - America's real hero. Jack has "saved" our country several times, and here are some quotes, one for each season of 24, that back my campaign for him to be elected;

1. "I have killed two people since midnight, I haven't slept in over 24 hours. So maybe… maybe you should be a little more afraid of me than you are right now."

2. "You are going to tell me everything I want to know or I swear to God I will hurt you before I kill you, and no one will be able to stop me."

3. "You're not under arrest. I'm taking you in to MI-6 where you'll be interrogated by an agent of a foreign government. Your constitutional rights no longer apply."

4. *after breaking someones fingers* "This will help you with the pain." *knocks them out*


5. "If you are lying to me, I'm going to make this the worst day of your life, you understand me?"

6. "You’re gonna tell me what I want to know or you’re going to start losing your fingers one by one."


7. "Look, if you think your need to complain is more important than the lives of the people that are counting on us, go whine somewhere else!"


8. "Madam President, I don't want revenge, I want justice."

9. "Look, I can tell you consider yourself a pretty intimidating group. You probably think I'm at a disadvantage. I promise you, I'm not."


Folks, there is no better choice. Jack Bauer for President, 2016.

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.
