Are We Raiding Area 51, Or Nah?

Mob mentality can be a dangerous thing. But with the release of the Netflix special, "Bob Lazar: Area 51 and Flying Saucers," hundreds of thousands of people are reconsidering the possibility that the government is aware of and hiding aliens from us.

Are We Raiding Area 51, Or Nah?

The popular Netflix special, "Bob Lazar: Area 51 and Flying Saucers," is interesting and thought-provoking. I couldn't stop thinking that this guy, Bob Lazar, is telling the truth. According to Lazar, he worked at a subsector of Area 51 called S4, where he worked on de-assembling alien spacecraft to explain their technology, which apparently uses an anti-matter reactor to bend holes in space-time that allow these alien saucers to "fall" into these gravitational holes created by their technology. Sounds crazy, right?

Much of Lazar's story seems unprovable, but none of it has been disproven. Meaning that although no one can prove he saw what he says he saw, no one can prove he didn't see it either. This makes his diagrams and explanations especially convincing, as not only are they consistent throughout his career, but they are accurate and sound logically infallible.

Now, though, more than 400,000 people on Facebook have signed up to raid Area 51 on September 20th of this year. People want to "see them aliens." That, and the meme value for this alien stuff is 10/10, just go on any social media and bask in the hilarity of alien memeage.

Although an action like this is unlikely, especially for the 400k people signed up to raid Area 51, I went ahead and joined the Facebook group because if they're gonna go see some aliens, I wanna make sure to be in the loop for that. The consequences of something like this sound interesting in theory but will dangerous in execution. Obviously, the government is "strongly discouraging" people from raiding Area 51 and claims that the facility is an "Air Force training range." Right. I'm sure they'll say anything to keep people from finding aliens.

All I know is I'm buying a plane ticket to Nevada to be on stand-by on September 20th and I'll keep my eyes peeled for those sweet government secrets. 'Merica.

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.

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.
