15 Memes That Perfectly Describe Thanksgiving
Lifestyle Magazine

One of the most dreaded (and most delicious) times of the year is quickly approaching. Thanksgiving.

It's a time of stuffing our bellies with food, gathering with family and friends, but all of these things aren't always as amazing as they may seem. Family feuds and arguing always ensue, being asked awkward questions by family members that you don't know how to answer, or that you flat out don't want to, are a part of Thanksgiving tradition. Though the food may be delicious (hopefully, unless Great Aunt Mary messes up her recipe, but no one wants to break her spirit and thus says how good it is), stuffing our stomachs to the breaking point isn't always so fun the morning after.

And of course, there's the dreaded Black Friday--more like Black Thursday at this point--where crowds of people rush to every store on the face of this earth to fight each other to the death for discounted and on-sale items. Not to mention the awful traffic that makes you wish you were dead, especially after having to deal with your prying family.

Everyone one loves memes, even though Thanksgiving isn't always a grand time, so here are some memes to help cheer your spirits when Thanksgiving comes around.

1. Already looking forward to stuffing your stomach on that delicious food


2. Getting prepared right before the huge meal


3. Finally being able to dig into all the food


4. Stuffing your stomach on copious amounts of food, even though you know you'll regret it

5. When family arguments begin, and you don't know what to do

6. Your family members sharing TMI you'd rather not hear

7. Still having to sit at the "kids" table, but it saves you from dealing with the arguing "adults"

8. When family members criticize how many times you've gotten "seconds"

9. When a family member asks about your dating/love life

10. As soon as the arguing starts between your family members...

11. Especially when it's over politics...

12. Reminding yourself about why you shouldn't have come back for Thanksgiving

13. Eating a bunch of dessert (mostly pies) even though you're stuffed from the main meal

14. Already thinking about all the leftovers for the next day


15. Now that Thanksgiving is over, you can go full on into Christmas mood

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.

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.
