Why I Cannot Wait Until This Election Is Over

Try being informed instead of opinionated.

Why I Cannot Wait Until This Election Is Over
Cliparts.co

I cannot wait until this election is over. I do believe it's very important that everyone in society is aware of the changes coming and pays attention to what is going on because it does affect everyone. You might not think it does, but it does.

Even though I believe that I still cannot wait for this election to be done with, I personally prefer Donald Trump. I'll get a lot of hate for that I am sure, but that's my opinion. Both candidates have their downsides. They both have said and done things that I believe are completely wrong.

With that all being said, this election has torn relationships between people apart. Politics is one thing that comes between people and is something that they're overly passionate about. If you vote for Trump, you're a women-hater, if you vote for Hilary, you're endorsing murder. The candidates start these rumors about one another and then the public blows them out of proportion. None of us know the truth. You might think you know everything but you don't. This election is more about picking the worse between two evils.

All I see on social media is the arguments and bashing of people's opinions. If you believe you have the right to an opinion, then you have to believe other people have the right to their opinion.

It's almost time to vote, so if you feel a certain way don't just tweet your opinion, go out and vote! We will soon see who will be running this country and either way we will have to deal with it. I'll just be glad when I can scroll through Facebook or Twitter and see something other than ignorant political arguments.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.

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.
