YouTube Videos To Help You Procrastinate

Everyone needs a good time killer. Here is a quick guide to your procrastination on YouTube.

1. The Evolution of Music--Pentatonix

This is one of the most interesting videos about music I have ever watched. They move from an 11th century song to the ones that everyone now has heard on the radio. If you don't know who Pentatonix is, it is a group of five people that perform amazing music all a cappella. If you jump into this wormhole you will go through a whole lot of music styles all super entertaining to watch.

2. OLD WEST DANCE BATTLE - COWBOY VS OUTLAW!--ScottDW

I have to admit that I love watching dance videos. I just think it is super cool how well the costumes and choreography come together. The cool thing about the guy who puts these videos out is that he creates the songs that they are dancing to. Following this video there are ones dealing with Harry Potter vs Twilight, high school dance battles, and storm troopers.

3. Teens React to Troye Sivan (Blue Neighborhood Trilogy)--Fine Brothers Entertainment

This is a fun one to watch for a couple of reasons. One being that I do really enjoy the music and the music videos that they are reacting to. Number two would be the fact that the react videos are always super fun to watch. This is an extreme time suck because not only are there tons of teen react videos, there are also YouTubers, elder, kids, etc. all reacting to a bunch of different videos.

4. Any of the Epic Rap Battles of History

These made me laugh so hard that I had tears in my eyes, and they are twice as fun when you share them with other people. Granted there are definitely a few that have a good handful of "bad words", but they will make you laugh nonetheless. A couple of my favorites "Romeo and Juliet vs Bonnie and Clyde" and "Miley Cyrus vs Joan of Arc". Oh, and if the abundance of actual videos isn't enough, there are behind the scenes videos to make sure you never get any actual work done!

5. Drop the Mic w/ Cara Delevingne & Dave Franco--The Late Late Show with James Corden

This video showcases one of the many late night shows that have celebrities on solely to make their audience laugh. Personally I think that Cara won this battle even before she got to her killer last lines. The YouTube hole you'll have to climb out of here is the many videos that James Corden has put up on YouTube with all of our favorite celebrities. That is, if you also are able to avoid the other shows such as Jimmy Fallon and Ellen.

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.
