11 Things To Stop Snapchatting In 2016

Are you struggling to stand out in the world of snapchat? Do you wish you knew what people find annoying on snapchat? Are you tired of the same old crap? Want to learn what a self-proclaimed snapchat master deems as unworthy of snapping? If you answered yes to even one of these questions then look no further! I've compiled a list of things to stop snapchatting (if you want to be one of the cool kids). And I know you want to be cool...right?

1. The road

I know what a road looks like and I know what a traffic jam looks like. This snap, however boring, has got accident written all over it. Alright cool, you're on your way to the beach. Now watch the darn road.

2. The gym

I can't wait for the day when gyms ban all cell phones. It may surprise some people, like those who don't work hard, but everyone else in there is there to get a good workout in. The gym isn't a social hangout place and the workout isn't that challenging if you're taking pictures of your "gains" throughout the exercise.

3. Concerts

I'm okay looking at one quick three second picture of you at a Taylor Swift concert, but once you've snapped me videos of "Bad Blood", "Blank Space", "Love Story", and every other song she's put out in the past six years, you're done. Call it quits. This is over three minutes of footage. I could have made a sandwich in those three minutes. Now they're gone. I don't understand, you're at a concert. Put your phone down and enjoy yourself. Music was meant to be experienced live, not through a two by four inch screen. And then some people snap themselves dancing with their friends but I can only make out about two of the dozen BFFs you're dancing with because it's so dark and is filmed like a six year old on a sugar rush.

4. The weather

Snapchat should be an outlet for sending stuff that isn't obvious. If I want to see the rain pouring I'll turn my head at a 90 degree angle to see the precipitation through the window. Plus there's only so many filters you can put on the snow falling down.

5. People I don't Know

You just killed all the vibes by sending me a picture of you and your homies whom I've never met. I don't know who Pete and Cindy are; I only want to snapchat you. This kind of snap just ends the interaction. What am I going to snap back, a picture of my imaginary friend that I colored in?

6. Basic food dishes with the caption "Chef (your name)"

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but you're not a chef if all you did was toast a bagel, spread cream cheese on it, and add that filter that makes everything look so ridiculously bright.

7. 0 MPH

What does this filter even mean? Are you traveling at a speed of 0 miles per hour? But isn't that like 99% of snaps?

8. Panorama shots of scenic views

Making me jealous is definitely a cardinal sin of snapchat etiquette. Next time you're at the Bahamas from your balcony or getting your hot dogs or legs tan game on, spare me the snap of the beautiful ocean water while I'm on my couch wearing a wife-beater and athletic shorts.

9. Anything that looks even remotely close to this

10. Or this

11. Anything fuckboy-ish

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.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.

singing
Cambio

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
