EDM: The Conspiracy Theory You Want To Hear About

Ok so this is crazy. I haven't even told you anything about this plot, and yet you would be extremely likely to believe I'm on drugs or something, which is a topic for another time... Anyway, everything you've every known is a lie...One could assume. To be honest I'm not sure what to make of this but here we go. You should probably sit down.

Electronic music is just a conspiracy to make sure people stay high, numb, disconnected from the world and constantly craving that next drop or order of wings. Now the world was first turned on to this beautiful theory by some internet person called Micky24242, and the awesome producer Hudson Mohawke turned us on to this fire.

Basically it all started with Elvis. People think of Elvis as some soft old school shit, nah that dude would have been on Jackass, he could have killed Keith Richards with his drug consumption, he probably would have created some competing company to Playboy had he lived long enough. The man was a savage, he was eccentric, he was a rock star. With all of this, teenagers were spawned, and so was teenage angst, and resentment of your parents. All this rebelliousness was simply too much to bear, and the root of it all was music. So what did the CIA do? Well, 2 CIA agents met 2 MI6 agents at a truck stop in Belize, they had beers and talked. These spooks thought that the fresh wave of adults, the first wave of these angsty teenagers, would be pretty unhappy with the world, so instead of changing the world, the CIA thought it best to change them.

To go about changing these teens, the CIA harnessed everything that makes those teenage years so fun: sex, drugs, and fandom. The plan was conceived. In order to eliminate any sense of teen revolution, the agencies had to harness it, creating a method for controlling hordes of youths. The infiltration was near total. The project was called Project Paradise and record labels, instrument makers, TV production houses, magazines and more were all paid huge amounts of money to propagate electronic music. Its aim was to create an environment where music and drugs go hand in hand.

Basically, the CIA are accused of creating club culture to keep people blinded and vegetated and seeking drugs or a high rather than answers or purpose. Considering how the goal was to create a scene where music and drugs go hand in hand, and now we have EDM festivals and shows which are trash unless you're rolling your face off, so I'd say if they did it, they succeeded.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
