I Like Tomi Lahren And I'm Not Ashamed

Her final thoughts always keep me on #TeamTomi

Tomi Lahren is most commonly known for her segment Final Thoughts. Every day she posts a short, less than five-minute video stating her “final thoughts” on one of the biggest topics in the news that day. From Brock Allen Turner to Alton Sterling and everything before, after and in between Tomi has stated her thoughts about it.

I think she voices her opinion in a way that is manageable for young and old people to hear and view. I'll be honest, I hate those long, drawn-out videos where people talk about current events and their opinion on the situations. To me, it just becomes boring after a certain point. Tomi’s short videos clearly state her feelings without having them be drawn out and uninteresting.

Recently, I've seen tons of people bashing her on Facebook. Saying how they hate her and she's ridiculous. I even saw a comment where someone said they would punch her in the face if they ever saw her in person. All I could say to all their negativity is, “Why?” Why do you hate her? Why do you think she's ridiculous? Why do you want to punch her in the face? Is it because she states her opinion, because she isn't afraid to say what others might not want to, or because she's honest?

Those three things are some of the most valid reasons why I am a fan. I like her honesty. I like that she clearly states her opinion. I like that she says what she feels and what she wants to say. I have Facebook friends who endlessly post their opinions of current events and presidential candidates. But I don't see people writing hateful posts about them saying how ridiculous they are and how they want them to punch them in the face.

So my question now is, what makes Tomi any different? Is it different because she has a following? Is it different because she's in more of a spotlight? Is it different because she's presented in a more professional way than people on Facebook are? Honestly, I feel like that should make her less of a target for hate.

Honestly, at the end of the day, I don't care that some people can't see the effects Tomi's Final Thoughts have. I appreciate her content and the messages she puts out. I appreciate the way she presents herself. I appreciate her opinion. Just because some people don't, won't change my mind. Just like everything else in the world.

For those people who hate Tomi Lahren, think she's ridiculous, and want to punch her in the face, keep doing you. I’ll keep making her Final Thoughts show up on your timeline. I'll keep supporting her messages and her opinion. I'm not ashamed to be on #TeamTomi.

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.

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.
