It doesn't.

Enjoying hunting is NOT an example toxic masculinity. Examples of toxic things that men--or rather, ANYBODY--do are assault, harassment, rape, etc. THOSE things are toxic. NOT going out with the boys for a day of hunting, then enjoying the fruits of your labor (which, by the way, most people kill for food, and not just for fun). Surprisingly, I've seen many people support the idea that hunting is an example of toxic masculinity. Sorry to burst your bubble, but it's just not. And there are so many more things in this world to get upset over than (legal) hunting. Pick your battles, people. Pick your battles.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.
