After his inauguration, news of the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, has flooded global media. His actions so far are not only controversial to Americans, but to foreign nations as well (the United States is, after all, an international super power).

Although coverage of his decisions can be intense, there is a lighter side to the situation; a perspective that isn't only utilized by the American public, but also by those overseas overlooking the activity in the United States: comic relief.

In such a highly stressful period of time, people all around the world have been contributing to the rising utilization of comedy when facing the tensions within the U.S. A Swiss spoof video, for example, takes a sarcastic perspective on the U.S President, and has met a surprising amount of international attention since it's release. As well as the video, the Swedish deputy PM and climate minister Isabella Lovin posted a photo on Facebook said to be in mockery of a popular Trump photof at only stars men. In contrast, Lovin's photo included only women.

As Sweden's climate minister, Lovin is highly concerned with President Trump's opinion on climate change, stating during the signing of a new climate law that, when it comes to climate change, "the U.S is not there anymore to lead".

Along with a superb amount of memes and satirical spoof videos, people across the world are offering an outlet for those troubled by recent events. With all the uncertainty and anxiety looming over the public, a little laugh is something well deserved.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
