A Couple New Reasons To Love Chance The Rapper

As if we didn't already love him enough...

Two new reasons have arisen to love Chance the Rapper, as if we all don't love him enough already. And no, it wasn't that incredible moment when Beyoncé crashed his backstage interview at the VMA's, and he fan-girled just as heavily as any of us would have.

But he's making our love even stronger....

First of all, he bought almost 2,000 scalper tickets to his own "Magnificent Coloring Day" music festival in Chicago to re-sell to fans. When the tickets first sold out, and scalpers began to set the prices unreasonably high, Chance, being the incredible that he is, took the tickets back from scalpers and made them available for much more reasonable prices on his website.



Not only that, though. He is using his concerts to register fans to vote in this year's election. The 23-year-old artist announced his affiliation with the NAACP's "#staywokeandvote" campaign on Twitter Wednesday.

Why Chance? Well, NAACP's president and CEO stated, "Chance the Rapper is an artist whose music praises and lifts up our common humanity, and whose call for action speaks to the yearning of this moment. This year, more than it has in a generation, we must use the power of our voices and our votes and exercise our sacred right to vote."

I wanna say there is no chance I could be a bigger fan, but I know he will just come right back with his next swoon-worthy move.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.

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.
