Some aspects of feminism. Mainly "femin a zis ." Woah. Don't dismiss me just yet. Don't close this tab putting me into the category of another idiot. Let’s take a look at my opinion, and then you can do whatever you want. Sometimes, I think feminism goes too far. Sometimes, I find feminism to be hypocritical. For example, when women complain that the air conditioning is sexist. They say that the people controlling the air conditioning is controlled by the male managers, and males prefer a lower temperature, and the women are left out to freeze. I know the real reason why we have this problem. Women are allowed to wear skirts to the office, while men have to burn because they are not allowed to wear shorts.

The barista misspells your name on the cup. Or should I say, purposely misspelled your name. Now what do you do? You go post it on your Instagram, your Snapchat Stories, your Facebook. All your friends see it and think that it’s funny. But it also reminds them of their inner craving for Starbucks. Then they all go to Starbucks, and a couple of them will get their name misspelled too. They post it on social media and boom! Starbucks has more customers. So the misspelling is just a way for Starbucks to get free advertising. And yes, I’m also giving them free advertising by making this post. Oops.

The media is throwing around the terms to impeach Donald Trump a lot recently. With the current president claiming that neo-nazis are on the same moral level as anti racism protestors and many more scandals, there are reasonable arguments to impeach Trump. He's colluded with Russian officials, given away confidential secrets from Isreal, and made too many mistakes.  Trump is said to be unfit to be president, and people are angry. People want to impeach him. But what are the steps to impeachment, and how would this play out? How does impeach ment work?   The first step of impeachment would happen in the House Of Representatives. Any member is allowed to bring up a resolution for impeachment, which many have done but failed. Next, the House Judiciary Committee will vote on that resolution. A majority must vote in favour of the resolution, or the motion will not move on. Then, the full House Of Representatives will vote if they should impeach. If...
