Intelligent people tend to be messy, stay awake longer, and swear more

According to this article, people who swear tend to have higher IQs. It starts by saying that even though it is commonly believed that people who swear have a limited vocabulary, people who doesn't swear are the ones that have a limited one, because in a certain way they are limiting their vocabulary by not saying any curse.
It continues by saying that people who tend to stay up late, and they're messy, since that way creativity flows better and they literaly say that  "If you don't spend much time cleaning and organizing everything around you, your mind is obviously occupied with more important stuff."

Personal opinion

If this was true then I'd be a genius, but it's not, so I am not. I don't believe anything from this article, it doesn't make sense. It's a shame though, if it was true, then i could have some hope, but no.

Negative people die sooner

This article says that negative people will die sooner. After explainig a study that was performed where people's mental and physical healt was being tracked, it says that the researchers propose three different causes to this; the first one is that there may be a direct biological link between personality and health, noting that hat stress and depression have been correlated with such physical problems as hypertension and lower immune system responsiveness, the second one being the possibility of negative personality traits leading to poor self-care leading to death, and the third one, copying directly from the article"underlying neuroticism may "modify the prognosis of diseases after their onset."" and translating it into a language that I can understand because the previous statement is too much for my poor limitated and stupid mind; when people prone to anxiety or depression are given a diagnose they'll asume the worst and will put less effort into treatment.

Personal opinion

Well, this article along with another one that I commented back in the first term, I am so going to die soon. 
I'm not sure if I should feel happy about it. I think I should. I don't know.
If I don't finish all my posts, you should take this into consideration; don't fail me, because you're dealing with a terminal person here, and since I'm going to die real soon, you could at least grant me the honor of not having to go to the recovery test next week.
Please.

Spain's 'lazy' young told by judges to get a life

This article explains how a 23-year-old woman has demaned to her parents to keep finacially supporting her as she studies, asking to be given 300€ at month. However, since it was noted by the court that she hadn't finished her secondary studies and even though her parents had given her money to study IT courses that she didn't complete either, they denied her request by saying that her conduct was "legally classifiable as one of abandonment, laziness and failure to take advantage".
It continues explainig how young people in Spain take longer to leave their family homes since the crisis started back in 2008, and impliying that it's closely tied with not finishing secondary studies.

Personal opinion

I clicked on this article because, even though seeing the words "lazy" and "Spain" it's not surpsing at all, I found myself imagining how british people must have read this same article and I found it kind of funny. "Oh those spaniards are rubbish, thank God for Cameron, the brexit and tea! God save the queen hahaha *all said in a very brittish accent*".
Honestly, I'm not sure if this should be considered a piece of news as much as a huge relieve for the parents. I mean, the "ninis" (how they are known here in Spain) have been out there for years now, and I guess that this case going public is a small spark of hope for those parents who are stuck with that kind of kids (well, they're not that young anymore to be called kids.),
Still, it's very easy to ponit at the "ninis" and blame them for everything, instead of blaming what made them be how they are; how are they going to find a job, if there are none out there, and the few ones that are avalible pay a miserable salary? How can you blame them for dropping out of school if the educational system in Spain is pretty much the worst one in Europe, leading to have the highest drop rate? And of course, we also need to take into consideration the world where they have grown up, where the society praises partying, sex, drugs and alcohol and leaves behind stuyding and working. That society, being the same one that has been built that way to get rid of the opression of the older generations that, even though now all that they say is "older times were much better" or "con Franco esto no pasaba" (and that makes them worthy of being kicked in the face) that were way worse than ours.
This people have been doomed to grow in a country where everything is stucked and predestined to be a big mess. They haven't done anything but being born in the wrong country.
And even though I am by no means defending not doing anything (they should at least try), it just bothers me to see people mocking and insulting "ninis".
Right. Because discrediting them is way more effective than encouraging them to find a job or studying, while the PP, who is very much responsible for this, keeps winning every election  and is being voted by that same people who hate "ninis" and keep praising old times, perpetuating the chaos in this country and creating more "ninis" everyday.

We suck. We really suck.

Real-life 'Breaking Bad'

In this article, a high-school chemistry teacher has been pleaded guilty of cooking meth and other illegal stuff just like in the TV Show Breaking Bad. It is pointed that it is the same kind of person who commits the felony (middle-aged white man) with the same job (chemistry teacher) and in the same state (New Mexico).

Personal Opinion:

It is funny to see how a TV Show that I've seen comes to life like this (not like the other that I've commented before about Twin Peaks). It would be funny and go all the Breaking Bad way and create a huge drug empire out of that.
If only I knew chemistry.

Potential Benefits of Procrastination

In this article, six potential benefits of procrastination are explained, among them the possibility of having a great idea while procrasdtinating or realizing while you're procrastinating that what you're procrastinating it's not what you truly want, and then during your procrastination you decide what you truly want to do and that way you can start by doing so instead of procrastinating even more.

Personal opinion:

I don't know if I agree with any of this potential benefits, it looks to me that this article is a procrastination itself, just the same as this post. Sorry.

The Hazel Drew mystery

In this article, one of the creators of the 90's drama Twin Peaks, Mark Frost,

Twin Peaks promotional poster

 says that the main plot of the show, Laura Palmer's murder, was based on a 

similar unsolved cased, Hazel Drew's murder.

Frost explains that his grandmother used to tell him Hazel Drew's story as a nightmarish bedtime story, and 20 years later, he created Twin Peaks half remembering the details of that sad tale.

During the article, Hazel Drew's murder is explained and also some of her last days, some conections she had with other people, what may have happened, some theories that were formed back in the day... Everything looking very familiar since many of those things also happened to Laura Palmer in Twin Peaks.

Personal Opinion:

I don't know what I'm supposed to opine about this, since we're talking about a real death and murder and stuff, so I'll just say that I'm really exited about the new season of Twin Peaks, and since I didn't know which news I could write about, I just googled "Twin Peaks" and this is the first result that showed up. 

And that's it. Very interesting article though.

Lack of sleep

Basically, this article says that scientists have revealed that sleeping less than 6 hours a day can increase the risk of an early death. It also says that it may lead to illness as well.

According to this, I'm good as dead. I've been sleeping less than 6 hours for a long time, and I haven't had 8 daily hours of sleep in like, 6 years. Thanks to high school, of course. I'd like to congratulate whoever decided to start at 8.00am every day, because I may die sooner than expected thanks to them.
Thanks :3.

The Simpsons predicted it.

Back in 2000, an episode of The Simpsons predicted that Donald Trump would be the president of the United States. It is mentioned in the episode Bart to the future, where Lisa becomes the president of the United States and says that the previous president, president Trump, had ruined the country.

The writer explained that they wrote it because "that just seemed like the logical last stop before hitting bottom. It was consistent with the vision of America going insane."

So, if some people were able to see how much of a terrible idea is Trump becoming the president sixteen years ago, I can't understand how can some people not see it now and support him, vote him and make him the president. Humans are unbelievable.
