12 Things To Worry About Besides Creepy Clowns
Huffington Post

Unless you live under a rock you have probably heard about creepy clown sightings. It seems pretty terrifying, especially when you hear about these clowns harassing people. The thing is, you are probably only hearing about these things, not even seeing them. Thanks to social media we get to see videos and pictures of these creeps, but are there actually any near us? Are people just freaking out and saying they saw a clown? If you are like me, I am not worrying about creepy clowns until I see one, and then I'll beat the crap out of it. There are other things in this world you need to worry about.

1. Midterms and projects


It's that time of the semester when your professor wants you to be miserable. Here's a huge group final project to work on and a midterm to study for. C's get degrees, fam.

2. This election


There's no sane good choice. But I would probably be terrified to see someone dressed as Trump or Hillary chasing after me. Be worried about that BS.

3. What to be for Halloween

Not a clown.

4. Your bank account


Who isn't broke? We all are spending money on supplies to purge these clowns.

5. STDs


Hey, I don't know your life but that might be something you should worry about. Not me though...mom, dad...not me, I'm good.

6. Sports


Baseball is coming close to an end, football is going, hockey season is about to start. I'm more stressed about the Blues first game against the Blackhawks than I am anything else. LGB

7. Loaded shotguns


Shout out to TFM (Total Frat Move) for showing the world men putting random shit into their shotguns before jugging it. If I ever see someone put their sandwich into a beer again...please just stop letting this be a thing.

8. Bee population


THE BEES ARE DYING AT AN ALARMING RATE.

9. Riots

People need to stop killing cops and one another. Calm the hell down.

10. What to eat for dinner


There comes a time when you need to stop going through the drive through every single day.

11. Spring break


It's never too early to start planning for SPRANGBREAK '17.

12. National debt


The United States is $19.3 trillion in debt! Where are we putting this money?! Area 51? Fort Knox?

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

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.
