The 2016 Election As Told By The Office
http://www.scpr.org/

There is a lot happening during this election. Every day there seems to be a new scandal or drama. So, to help keep track of all the election highlights so far, Dunder Mifflin is here to break it down for us:

1. When you heard Trump was running:

We all thought it was a joke... and then it became very real. In fact it became yuuuuge.

2. When candidates dropped out of the race:

Tbt to Ben Carson the neurosurgeon. And Ted Cruz. Oh and remember Rick Santorum? Me either. But Gary Johnson- he's still in it!!

3. Bernie supporters toward Hillary when she took the nomination:

They are not pleased and they are certainly NOT with her. Feelin' #berned

4. Hillary, when people use her email scandals against her:

Casually has thousands of emails missing but apparently the rules don't apply to her. Because she's Hillz. The first female nominee.

5. When we think about how Trump made it this far:

Just...how? Someone, anyone, please explain how.

6. Trump's facial expressions:

That smile though. Sometimes, when he squints real hard, his eyes fully disappear.

7. Bernie and company:

America was really feeling the bern and now they are just feeling berned. A for effort! It was a good run.

8. When Trump gives himself a compliment:

He doesn't need anyone's money because he's really rich. Must be nice.

9. Trump talking about his background:

"You're fiya-ed".

10. Bernie or Bust:

"No, we're not with her." They are also not about the "Go Blue No Matter Who" movement so don't even try to bring it up- especially on their Facebook page.

11. Reactions to the Melania Trump memes:

She did not plagiarize her speech. She would not, could not, on a boat. Thank you Melania, for all the social media opportunities.

12. Many people's feelings toward Sir Trump:

He is truly one of a kind, with a personality unlike any other.

13. Trump's philosophy:

Donald Trump and Michael Scott would definitely be bros. I would love to see those two in a room together.

14. When we can't seem to pick two more likable candidates to run our country:

You're right Michael, this really is. What ever happened to Vermin Supreme? Let's get him back in here.

15. When Bernie decided he's with her:

He's got your back Hillz, even if his fan squad does not. He wants to keep America with the D (Democrat, not Donald).

16. Hillary trying to play it cool when the Russian government hacks the DNC.

This again? She's blaming the Donald for this one and channeling her inner Shaggy, claiming "wasn't me".

17. When Bernie emphasizes his statements with his pointer finger:

For dramatic effect. The pointer finger really does have so much power.

18. America as a whole, regardless of the outcome:

Drum roll please. May the odds be ever in our favor.


So, as the election continues to progress, always know you can count on the Dunder Mifflin team to help us through these confusing times. Also remember to vote #MichaelScott2016.

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.

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.
