'What Happens In Vegas, Stays In Vegas' Doesn't Excuse Cheating On Your Partner

Las Vegas' motto may be "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas," but I would like you to remember this is simply a marketing strategy. Cheating on your significant other in Vegas is not fair to you or your partner. If you're finding yourself cheating every time you travel, why are you even in a relationship?

Monogamy still applies in Vegas. If you get married in Vegas, your marriage is valid in the entire United States. If you have sex in Vegas and get an STI, that STI comes back from Vegas with you!

So, if you cheat on your partner in Vegas and pretend like it doesn't count, you are a trash person. Absolute dumpster fire. Cheating is absolutely unacceptable and allowing your partner to think that you were faithful when you were traveling WHEN YOU WERE NOT is garbage behavior. Cheating causes trust and intimacy issues that can be difficult to resolve, especially depending on how much time passes between the affair and the partner finding out about the affair.

Of course, Las Vegas is the obvious example here. But, this applies to anyone who travels and cheats. Don't be that person! Be loyal to your partner or break the f*ck up with them! Own up to what YOU really want. Nobody is forcing you to be in a relationship, so make sure you're actually happy with who you're dating. If your first instinct when you go to Vegas is to seek out someone else, you might be happier single.

My point here is to be respectful and loyal to your partner, even when you're traveling. If you find that too difficult, then you're with the wrong person! Relationships are supposed to be an enjoyable part of life, so why not date someone you're happy to be with?

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
