Let's be honest: it isn't the end of the world, yet.

For those of you brave souls who tuned in to the Presidential Debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, those held captive in political Facebook, and those trapped in Twitter, I write this article in your honor.

13 Things Worse Than The TrumpTon Debate

1. Running Out Of Krispy Kreme Donuts

"If the glazed goodness doesn't get me first, the box of 12 I just ate will." *eats another doughnut casually while dying*

2. Break-Ups

Trust me; we'll move past this debate....you actually won't remember much about it.

3. Taco Bellarrhea

*wipes tear from corner of eye*

4. Breaking An iPhone

Bad debates cost you a fraction of your cable bill; I could pay off my student loans if it weren't for paying to repair that dang iPhone screen.

5. People Who Don't Like The Office

GOT 'EM!!

6. Tuition Prices

They said it was just "inflation". They said it was fine; I can't afford Ramen noodles.

7. Stepping On A Lego

Toupee Trauma ain't got nothing on lego warfare.

8. Going To Jail For Deleting Emails

Even Hillary thinks I'm funny....or is that laugh a little fake? Who cares!

9. Being A Human Orange

The Donald can't deny it; I guess I'm on my way to uniting the American people.

10. Flu Season

People cough; we be like "not today Satan".

11. Friendly Fire in Video Games

We were brothers; we were family, but then you destroyed my kill streak.

12. The 1975 Breaking Up

I didn't say anything. What? I can't...LALALALALALALALALALALALALALALA

13. Not Having Presidential Debates or Elections

Hey, maybe we don't love our options. Maybe this year feels like a joke, but let's remember, it could be worse. We still have Presidential Debates, Elections, Krispy Kreme Donuts, The 1975, Netflix, and the rest of our lives ahead of us. Say no to political agendas and the political correctness that divides families, friendships, and our news feeds. Say yes to funny gifs, memes, and our future.

AI music threatens creativity

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.
