The internet today is filled with many social media websites where people can interact with each other around the world. Studies show that on average teenagers spend nine hours a day using the internet. These teenagers being able to interact with each other, interact with millions of people and learn about things happening around the world is exactly why minors should be able to use these websites. Teenagers ability to communicate with each other through the internet is the basis of today’s…
their appearance just to look like the perfect body you see on magazines and TVs. Some would even turn themselves to Barbie dolls!!! The media plays a big part in this. A prime example is Social media this included (Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and Tumblr) which most of us all have. Our obsession with body goals is growing excessively by the day. Body image is in the media everywhere you look the very moment you turn on the television you are bombarded with beautiful bodies with perfect figures.…
This is not a zine for our racist Asian parents. We didn’t design Cocoon with the intent of converting internet neo-nazis into socially conscious feminists, nor for the purpose of turning people who unironically call people “sjw’s” into the people they used to call “sjw’s.” This is no feminist evangelism; we’re not attempting to call sinners to repent of their casual racism at the altar of anti-oppression. Ultimately, this zine is not for them — this zine is for us. It’s for all my friends who…
During my high school career writing was not recognized as much as it is now and there wasn't a huge place of importance on it. In high school the only writing I was concerned with are essays. However, now in my college career I have to take other texts into consideration. For example, writing an email to my professor will take a lot more thought rather than writing an email to my high school English teacher. I believe this because pre college relationships with teachers are much more informal.…

Bands & Superheroes Have you ever had something you have a passion for or you were obsessed with? I am a part of the teenage culture which is a sub-culture to American culture & I have a passion for superhero movies while I am obsessed with bands & music. Firstly, superhero movies have made a big impact on my life by giving me something I can talk about for hours on end to someone who also has opinions on the movies or to someone who has never seen any type of superhero movie. Trust…
one of the most successful horror films of the year. Peele created a film that dealt with a black person’s navigation in White America, in my research of the discourse surrounding Get Out I found five articles and one thread of viewer comments on Tumblr. In the first article, TheWrap.com discusses director Jordan’s Peele interpretation of the “sunken place,” Peele defines the “sunken place” as the marginalization that Black Americans feel, “The Sunken Place means we’re marginalized. No matter…
goes on and on. There is nothing she can’t do. And to prove it, she is entering into the fashion world to express her love of fashion with a new shoe collection. Zendaya has become a fashion icon to young girls and women alike. She utilizes her Tumblr page to share her favorite outfits and provide inspiration to fellow fashionistas. Everytime she is on the red carpet, she slays us with her style, grace, and, of course, her outfits. The great part about seeing Zendaya on the red carpet is not…
The acquisition of a position of authority holds the potential of opening a Pandora’s Box of the most undesirable traits in the human arsenal. Thus, concepts such as “power-tripping” have emerged — testaments to the damage brought by power in the hands of the undeserving. In the Stanford prison experiment of 1971, power without morality was further explored. Men designated prison guards were given sticks to command respect and mirrored sunglasses to release them from accountability, and within…
part of the value chain. Expanded control can be a game changer as Apple has taken responsibility for chip producers, control over assembling, meticulous programming principles, and an almost closed ecology community and proprietary retail locations (Tumblr, 2012). Apple has confidence in diversification and some of these current methods have been showing up. Apple has not strayed from its approach of expansion, and it an exceptional venture to present different tablet offers. Apple has the…
