New videos have surfaced of Post Malone showing some very abnormal behavior on stage at several concerts during his "Runaway Tour." The spectacle has caused fans to raise concerns for his well-being because of how many artists have lost their lives to the overuse of drugs and alcohol ultimately leading to an overdose.

While we don't know if Post Malone was intoxicated, we do know that this is not normal behavior from his usual performances.

Below you can see the video of the recent unusual, extremely disturbing behavior compared to a typical Posty performance:

Abuse of drugs and alcohol has a long history within the entertainment industry. Between access, stress, and an attitude of normalcy surrounding drug and alcohol, many musicians we know and love have battled addiction in one capacity or another. We see stars like Demi Lovato openly sharing her struggles and how she has overcome them, with the help of rehab and a support system around her.

Then we remember stars like Mac Miller, whose addiction led to a heartbreaking overdose.

Because of the struggles we've watched our icons live out, we are becoming more aware of how far substance abuse can go. Blacking out isn't cute and pushing the limit isn't normal, it's dangerous. That's why fans are becoming alarmed when another favorite shows signs of addiction or abuse.

Hopefully, Post Malone doesn't see these fans' concerns as judgment or criticism, but as a sign to seek help for his behavior. People care about him and would never want to see him hurt.

If you or someone you know needs help with substance abuse or mental health issues, call 800-662-HELP (4357) for the SAMHSA National Helpline.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
