Seven Hobbies To Take Up While Our Country Falls To Shambles

AKA my in-depth analysis of how to become a human mannequin

So you’ve probably already heard, but his highness, Donald J. Trump, is going to be our leader in a few short days. So, with that in our minds, I have created a list of hobbies that you can take upon during these next long four years of literal hell.

1. Knitting

Who doesn’t love to knit? It’s relaxing, cheap, and now you have a gift for mom on Mother’s Day. Perhaps first learn to knit scarves, and then gradually progress into making an entire knit mural of the American people’s hopes and dreams being crushed!



2. Beekeeping

What is better than keeping bees, producing butt loads of honey all while wearing a gigantic net over your head? NOTHING. Beekeeping is the shit, and it will definitely be your new hobby while Donald Trump literally and metaphorically pisses on the American population. Side-note: the possibility of being stung multiple times is inevitable, but it will probably be nothing like the sting of debt you will feel from the entire GOP.



3. See how long you can grow your leg hair

During the next four years, ladies, I challenge you to break these goddamn gender stereotypes and stop the shaving! And it’ll probably gross out Mr. Trump because of how nasty we all are (and I mean, better get used to not shaving anyways since there will be no shaving once the world ends).



4. Become a human mannequin

Okay weird, but still valid. At least as a plastic doll you won’t be aware of the disarray surrounding you. Plus, you’ll get to wear hella cute clothes for four years if you transition your mannequin services to a fun department store.



5. Set up a meth lab!

We’ve all seen Breaking Bad. SPOILER ALERT: all you really need is an old van and some fancy scientific ~cylinders~, and voila: you have meth. It’s great profit, and the risk is totally worth it. I mean, what will you have to live for once we have a human Cheeto in office?



6. Become an expert in hosting tea parties

But instead of tea, serve the tears of the people of the United States. They will be plentiful, I promise.



7. Write, direct, and star in your own TV show

I feel like cringe-comedy would be the best for this, (à la The Office). Start by filming your daily tasks, daily routines, etc. Then obviously it will gradually transform into something darker, but still with a lighthearted tone! Send it to the CW and you’ve got yourself some solid teen girl viewership. You’ll realistically fit in a total of 6 seasons (if you do bi-yearly seasons). Try to end it in a dramatic way that’s still comedic (before we all get blown up by some other country).

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
