Talk about house party gone wrong.
The Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity at Clemson University got their annual homecoming party cut short when the floor decided to give way.
Luckily none of the injuries sustained were life threatening when the floor collapsed from the common area into the basement of the apartment complex located off campus. 23 people had to be taken to the hospital in result of the collapse. This gruesome event was caught on camera showing students plummet to the ground unexpectedly.

A few students were interviewed after the party giving a brief recollection of the events that had taken place prior to the collapse. Larissa Stone, interviewed by Greenville News told reporters that the beat had been about to drop when the floor collapsed. She explained that people were hurt and bleeding. “I had blood on my sneakers. It was really bad” she recalled.
Another student, Leroy Pearson, told a local news station that “Everybody was jumping, next thing you know… I can feel myself falling.” Pearson also told the channel that he blacked out and the girls at the party had blood all over their faces when he came to.
Jim Clements, Clemson University President, tweeted explaining that the entire student support system would be available for any students impacted by the traumatic event.
As for why the floor gave in, there is still no explanation. Police have started an investigation of Woodlands of Clemson University apartment complex, the location where the party took place which was just built in 2004.
If this doesn’t make you think twice when attending a college house party I don’t know what does. Thankfully all of the injuries were minor and no lives were lost, considering the outcome could have been a lot worse. Make sure you comment down below your thoughts and opinions on the topic.
![[NEWS] THE CONVERSATION THAT LED TO PRESIDENT TRUMP AND KANYES BIG EMBRACE](https://i0.wp.com/sloppyvinyl.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/president-trump-and-kanye-hug-.jpg?resize=1080%2C675&ssl=1)

Today was the day for President Trumps long awaited lunch with rapper, Kanye West.
Trump allowed Kanye to steal the show, saying barely a word during their 25 minute conversation alongside former NFL player, Jim Brown. The conversation was broadcasted live, allowing viewers to share their comments as they watched Kanye rant about a number of controversial issues.
During the conversation Kanye talked about topics revolving around the black community, mental health, stop and frisk, gun control, and his future plans to run for president. The rapper stated that stop and frisk was something many people told him to bring up following the claims President Trump made earlier in the week stating, Chicago should strongly consider implementing a stop-and-frisk program. Similar to the one that was enforced in New York City. West explained that implementing this would be detrimental for the relationships in the city of Chicago. In response, Trump stated that he was very open-minded to having a conversation about it.
West also touches on his support of the President and how wearing the MAGA hat makes him feel like superman. This is something that has been baffling for a lot of people considering the Presidents racist tendencies and comments. The rapper expresses that the use of again doesn’t correlate to the times of slavery for him, but instead correlates to today and living in the now. The rapper expressed that “when I said I like Trump to like someone who is a liberal, they’ll say, ‘Oh, but he’s racist.’ You think racism can control me? Oh, that don’t stop me. That’s an invisible wall.”
Since the live broadcast, celebrities have come out to express their views on the conversation, one of which being rapper T.I. T.I. expressed his frustration with his former friend in a long Instagram post, explaining that when Kanye originally asked him to attend this same meeting, naturally T.I. said no.
I don’t know about any of you, but I for one am very tired of the Kanye show and his outlandish attempts to remain relevant.
Make sure you comment down below if you watched the live broadcasting and what you think about the conversation.
![[NEWS] MELANIA TRUMP ON THE #METOO MOVEMENT](https://i0.wp.com/sloppyvinyl.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/MelaniaTrump-.png?resize=294%2C171&ssl=1)

Melanie Trump gives her insight on the #MeToo movement and I really wish she hadn’t.
It has been a year since the #MeToo movement spread virally across the social media platforms throughout the world. Since then, the movement has created a community of survivors who share their stories of sexual assault and abuse as well as encouragement and motivation to overcome this terrible phenomenon.
This year has not been easy for victims of sexual assault as they are constantly reminded of their abuse from headline after headline. The most recent headline has involved Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, who was accused by Christine Blasey-Ford. Ford shared her heartbreaking story of what occurred the night of her assault with all of America. In result, Kavanaugh was still voted in as the new Supreme Court Justice of the United States, a devastating feat for the survivors of sexual assault all over the world.
Following the hearings, the First Lady shared her opinion with the world stating that “if you accuse (someone) of something, show the evidence.”
Personally, I believe Melania Trumps comments about survivors is both a form of victim shaming and a prime example of shifting the blame. Telling a survivor that they need to make sure they have “hard core evidence” after being sexually violated and humiliated is offensive and disgusting. Though this is something I do not believe should have been said by the first lady, it is not surprising after hearing her husbands crude comments about the topic.
Comment down below what you think about the comments.

Kylie Jenner is back at it again with another makeup line.
The reality star and multi-million dollar 21 year old just recently launched a line with bff Jordyn Woods, but that has not stopped her from releasing her Halloween set up. According to Cosmopolitan the collection comes with 3D packaging and glasses giving it a very haunted feel. The package includes an eyeshadow palette, lip sticks, a lip kit, lip gloss, liquid eyeshadow, and of course highlighter. The dark colors definitely give off a spooky vibe and I’m sure will definitely be a palette all you makeup gurus will not want to miss out on this Halloween.
If the makeup shades were not enough to get you in the Halloween spirit, the names of the different products within the line sure will. The names include “Hello Ghordeous” , “Bite Me”, “Nightmare”, “Monster”, “Spider Bite” and one of my personal favorites “Hex on my Ex”. These product names are perfect for luring in makeup/Halloween lovers.

![[NEWS] THE OMINOUS TEXT MESSAGE](https://i0.wp.com/sloppyvinyl.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/pt-5-.png?resize=1024%2C675&ssl=1)

I am sure you all experienced the utter surprise and confusion yesterday afternoon when your phone, along with millions of other, buzzed with a message from Americas very own President, Donald Trump.
The message that surfaced on the phone screen of many yesterday stated “THIS IS A TEST of the National Wireless Emergency Alert System. No action is needed”. This small message apparently authorized by Donald Trump will be the first of many to alert Americans of national emergencies and catastrophe’s that may potentially occur. What makes these alerts unique from the alerts we are now used to getting like amber warnings and flood warning messages is that these “presidential alerts” are not able to be turned off, there is no opting out of this one. This mere fact alone has many fuming, and according to The New York Times, has prompted a lawsuit which has been filed in New York. The NYT states that three New York residents say the alerts violate their free speech.
What many don’t know is that the Communication Act of 1934 makes this completely legal and gives the president power to use communication systems in the case of an emergency.
Americans took to twitter heavily to express their comments, opinions, questions, and concerns about the Nationwide text message. See some of the tweets below that sparked the internet as well as brought humor to the very serious concerns of many Americans.
I, like many, am not really a fan of the text messages from the president, but was also lucky enough to not have received one. Comment down below what you think of the President being able to distribute out mass text messages.
