We are genuinely worried.

This Trump Sh*t Isn't Funny Anymore
Business Insider

When Donald Trump first announced that he was going to be running for president, we all had a good laugh. We all thought it was some kind of a joke. It was funny because why would this man with absolutely no political experience be running for president? He’s more fit to be a star on a trashy reality TV show than a political leader. At first, yeah, this Trump thing was funny, but now, I’m worried. He’s been winning states in the primaries. He’s starting to look like he has a shot. He is likely to be the Republican nominee. This Trump sh*t isn’t funny anymore.

Donald Trump is a disrespectful, arrogant and vile human being and he has no business being the leader of our country. He’s telling people what they want to hear but most likely is not going to be able to back anything he promises up. He has no political experience. He walked into his millions to the thanks of his father who has also had to bail him out when he’s messed up. Trump has gone bankrupt four times. He considered his father's one million dollar loan to be a “small loan.” Clearly he’s money smart. *insert annoyed face here*

I’ve heard people mention that they don’t care that Trump insults people, or that they don’t care that he’s crude or uneducated about certain topics. Why don’t you care? Someone who’s going to be running our country needs to be respectful of more than just middle-class, white males. So yes, it matters that he called undocumented Mexican immigrants drug dealers, criminals and rapists. Yes, it matters that when asked tough and relevant questions by Meghan Kelly his response was simply that she must be on her period. Yes, it matters that he would say something as disgusting as that his daughter has a nice body and that if she was not his daughter, he would probably be dating her. Yes, it matters that he mocked a disabled person on television. Yes, it matters that he doesn’t respect women. Yes, it matters if he’s extremely racist. It matters.

We need a leader who has our entire country’s interest at heart, collectively. Donald Trump doesn’t care about our country. He’s a power-hungry, ego-maniac. I am disgusted and terrified that Trump is actually winning as many of the primaries as he has. Don’t get me wrong, this entire election is a sh*tshow -- most of the candidates are looking that great, but unfortunately when it comes to politics, we become forced to pick the lesser of two evils. Well, let me tell you, the lesser of two evils is not Donald Trump. This isn’t funny anymore. It’s scary and lots of us are exhausted from having to try and explain to people what is wrong with this man. We are scared. This is not funny anymore.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!
