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).

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:
