I Stand With Kesha

Imagine having to go to work and face horror or something so terrible. Seeing someone who caused you physical or emotional pain. Imagine having your life spiral out of control because of one event.

I stand with Kesha. By no means am I saying I am a feminist. I am not saying that I am going to support every internet debate, every court case, but this one I 100 percent do. Now, you may not agree with me, but this is my opinion.

I could not imagine going through such emotional stress and have to relive it with the same people over and over again. I would never want to be in that position where I was so confined and someone denied me.

Kesha is now being forced to stay in her contract at Sony with someone who almost caused her her life. What has society come to? This is teaching people that is okay to make other people feel badly about themselves. This is showing the world that here it is okay to make people feel so badly about themselves they have to go into rehab for an eating disorder. She was sexually assaulted and is still forced to work with the company that did nothing to stop this? Why should she be trapped somewhere that causes her to relive the trauma over and over again?

We live in a world today that people wear shirts that say it is OK to rape people. IT IS NOT! As a women I shouldn't have to walk around afraid that something may happen to me. I shouldn't have to watch what I wear because if I don't then I was "asking for it." I may only be 19 but if this is the world now what will the world be when I have children in the future? Are they never going to be able to leave this house?

I stand with Kesha because her court ruling was wrong. I stand with Kesha because this decision affects all women who have ever been sexually assaulted. It sends out a message that despite the trauma that has happened to any women or even man and they want to take it to court, this could happen. It makes people afraid to come forward and talk about what happened to them. I stand with Kesha along with many others.

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!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
