A Liberal Take On The RNC, Told By Gifs

I was 100% sober the entire time, although I would have loved to make it a drinking game.

A Liberal Take On The RNC, Told By Gifs

As I’ve mentioned before, I love politics. I don’t know why, but for whatever reason, I just do. So this past week — well last week as you read this – was the Republican National Convention. I must admit that I’m very disappointed that this did not end up being a contested convention like I, and many others, had hoped. The Republicans stupidly decided to go with Trump as their ‘candidate’, further proving the fact that this country, the world and 2016 is going to shit. I stupidly decided to watch the RNC because I must get some sort of sick pleasure out of causing myself an unneeded amount of pain. The only thing that would have made this better would be if I could turn this into a drinking game. But I couldn’t, because luckily for me, I’m not 21 yet! Side note: during the next RNC, I plan to make it a drinking game. So my sober and very unbrainwashed by Fox News and all the other bullsh*t Republicans scream to the idiots in this country liberal mind was 100% fully focused and ready to take in what was being said by all the people. Another side note: I regretted this choice right away.

Every single time that someone mentioned Hillary or her emails

Every single Blue/All Lives Matter mention

Seeing every new “Make America ______ Again” theme

When I heard Ted Cruz was making a speech

When Ted Cruz didn’t endorse Trump, basically told the crowd not to vote for Trump and actually earned a very tiny bit of respect

When Ted Cruz ruined the tiny bit of respect that I actually had for him because he tanked his own career and said he couldn’t endorse Trump, because of what he said about his wife and father, and not because Trump is a terrible person.

When Ivanka made a very democratic sounding speech and when I realized the only reason anyone was pretending to listen to her is because she’s a tall, pretty, blonde

When Trump kept talking

And talking

And talking, without mentioning a single plan

But of course he didn’t forget to race bait

When you realize that this country is doomed if he wins

When I remembered that I have to write another article exactly like this one next week for the white feminist convention Democratic National Convention.

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.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:
