15 Things Better Than A Trump Presidency

You're from a very liberal college, you voted for Hillary, you totally thought she'd win because you know, she killed the debates, and was leading in the polls by a comfortable amount prior to the election. Then suddenly, rural areas decided to vote more than they usually do, and you realize that the America you once thought you lived in appears to all be a lie. To help convey your feelings right now, here's a list of things that you would much rather have as compared to a Trump Presidency.

1. Being hit by a meteor

Remember when that whole like "end of the world" thing was going to happen in 2012? Like can we get that now? There are so many asteroids in the planet like one of them needs to spare us.

2. Return of the Black Plague

Ok, like we all learned in grade school about this thing that can really be solved by just washing your hands or something. But like a disease that kills between 30% and 60% of the world's population? Please sign me up.

3. Getting attacked by wild chimps


Ok so apparently chimps can get crazy. Throw me at them. I am more than willing to "get lost" in a jungle somewhere and just get like taken over. Or like, go to any random zoo (let's just pick the Cincinnati one for example) and "fall" into the Gorilla exhibit, and get dragged semi violently through the water (RIP Harambe).

4. Syphilis

Literally an STD that can cause blindness apparently? I'm totally down. Like I'm all for the public ridicule and shame and probably lack of sex partners.

5. Jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge

The view is apparently great. It's iconic, like who wouldn't want to go out in an iconic way? Plus it's like 746 feet tall so if you want to get off this earth ASAP what's a better way to go?

6. Going out with Chad from Biology

You know exactly who I'm talking about. That creepy guys who you always catch staring at you and probably picks his nose and somehow got your number and is constantly asking for nudes. He's the worst. But he's better than Trump.

7. Biting your pinkie finger off like a baby carrot

Apparently this is a thing??? Like supposedly your brain won't let you bite off your own but you can bite off others??? Idk, biting off your own would be a lot better.

8. Alien Takeover

Oh my god I know the government has been hiding this from us. I waiting for Trump to expose all of the secrets and to have the aliens be all like "well now we gotta destroy their planet."

9. The eternal burning in Hell

There's 9 layers and I will take every single one of them before Trump. Let's get real, I'm going there anyway, I might as well start early.

10. Entering the void

There's nothing worse than the absence of everything. Well, Trump is worse but like you get my point. I'd rather feel the constant emptiness in my soul than hear Trump say "Gina" when he's trying to say "China".

11. A sweating, panting, leather daddy

Yes, this is a Cards Against Humanity card, but like I'll take it. I'm imagining a really gross like 60 year old hitting on me, a 19 year old, and then dressing in some weird leather straps get up and like sweating all over me and panting like he's going to have a heart attack any minute. I'm uncomfortable writing that sentence. But it's still better than trump.

12. Electing the Zodiac Killer


Ted Cruz plz come save us.

13. Being burned at the stake like a Salem Witch

Coven was my favorite season of American Horror Story so at least I'd be like somewhat ok with it? I don't have supernatural powers, so that's a bummer. But let's get real, if I did have supernatural powers, Trump wouldn't be president in the first place.

14. A legitimate talking cheeto as our president

I'm imagining like a giant cheeto with creepy eyes and a mouth photoshopped onto it much like the annoying orange thing that was a huge internet meme in like 2011 (were memes a thing then?). I mean that's basically what we have when we elected Trump, the only difference is he's not a mediocre snack.

15. Alcohol

Not that I have EVER consumed any sort of alcoholic beverage EVER in my life.... But if I have it was multiple shots on both election night and the night afterwards and it made it like somewhat bearable (Drink responsibly).

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
