10 Music Videos To Watch When You Want To Distract Yourself
HitFix

This song came out in 2010 and is part of the album On Melancholy Hill by the Gorilllaz. It reminds me of a lullaby a little bit in a weird dystopian universe. It's reflective of the signature style that the Gorillaz infuse into their image, album cover, and content.


An oldie but a goody from Daft Punk. This song was released in 2009 and has over 24 million views. Personally, I love a music video with a plot line and this music video provides it. The style of this music video is almost like a comic book -- it reminds me of AHa's Take on Me music video from back in the 80's.


This song is written by the Studio Killers in 2011. It's pretty provocative but I love the beat and the animation of the animals. This video is definitely different than the other videos that have been listed so far; the psychedelic music, the animation style, and the depiction of humans, specifically women, in the video.


This song's somewhat trap like but it's definitely a music video that will command your attention, and possibly confuse the hell out of you. This video is one I'd definitely classify as "trippy". It's heavily edited and there isn't much of a plot but who needs those anyways?


This music video makes me think these are outtakes from Fantasia. I love the somewhat poppy sound echoing behind the adventure that unfold throughout the music video.


This is one of my all-time favorite music videos. It first premiered on Adult Swim and took off from there. The animation in this video is varied and aligns so well with the song written by Dan Deacon. This is by far one of the best music videos to listen to when you need to destress.


This video is a twist off of the original video and promo for the song Electric Love. It's fantastic, that is all.


If you enjoy reading or watching shows about a dystopian type of world, this video is going to rock your world.


This is a song you could definitely put on in the background while doing homework. It's a lesser watched video but it's definitely worth adding another view to the overall total on Youtube. I love how they illustrate the characters featured in the music video. I think that the band tried to incorporate cultural aspects into their psychedelic video.


Last but certainly not least, my absolute favorite video of all time. I love Tame Impala and this video combines digital effects and real acting so well. This video is definitely one anyone who has been hung out to dry by someone they had feelings for will relate to. It perfectly describes that contentedness we may feel waiting for the other person to be "ready" even though it's clear the other person's intentions aren't pure.


Happy watching!!

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
