Blog Entry #8: TiKTok

The app TikTok has become so popular with the younger generation, Gen Z to be exact. It seems that everyone has this ad wether they post on it or just watch other people's video's. Some people even make money from this app when they post their content.       Although the app has a lot of younger adults using it, there are plenty older and middle aged adults on the app as well. Some may think this app is very useless but I think it depends on how you use it. You can use it to find fun recipes and dinner ideas, even Amazon finds. Then there's some people who just lay in bed endlessly scrolling, that might know be very beneficial...      TikTok isn't a bad thing unless you make it a bad thing!  

Blog entry #7: Fresh

 After watching Fresh it made me think of the types of foods I eat and how they are made. I think the purpose of this film is to make people aware of the food they're buying and the thing the farmers may go through. The audience I believe is towards all food buying customers in the United States. The tone is kind of modern, not everyone is being serious in the film they are just living their everyday life. I was surprised that they gave away worms, I would think you'd want some of them or would want to at least make a profit on them. This film kind of grossed me out because I'm not a fan of the whole process of actually getting the foods and the way they get the meat. I think this film is educating and everyone who buys these products should be educated on them. This film defiantly matters, It gives the perspective of the farmers them selfs which seems like the best people to get information from. It's probably simpler as Americans to not know the issues of what we eat

Blog Entry #6: Social media! More like Bad idea

Image
 Social Media is such a big thing in today's world. Almost all of the celebs have it, it's what keeps people looking at them. Although celebrities have social media, so do your ordinary people. From young teens the middle aged Facebook moms    The thing about social media is that it makes you vulnerable. You are showing all of these people what your life is like, where you go, and even what your home may look like. Many people who have social media, Instagram for an example lets you follow people who may be mutuals with your friends. Even though your friends  may know that person, you don't. So many people follow others who they don't actually know.  This can result in stalking, even bullying.  Would we be happier without it???

Blog Entry #5: Allstate , are you in good hands?

                                        https://youtu.be/7pV-kvG3OrQ?feature=shared Ads are meant to get people to buy something. This ad is no different, The Allstate ads want you to have their insurance for your home, cars, etc. In this as the author wants the audience to feel like they could actually be protected through their insurance and not want to end up like the peoples house that is getting broken into. This ad is trying to promote a safe lifestyle for their customers. All ads have targeted audiences, this one would be towards adults who need insurance on their belongings. The context of this ad is placed in a regular neighborhood, the house has nice belongings. The problem isn't the house it's self, but the fact that the family let a lot of people know that they wouldn't be home. As of "American Culture" there doesn't seem to be anything specifically placed in this ad to show it, other than the burglar being an American. The publics reaction to this

Blog Entry#4: AI or A Crazy

Image
We have had AI for many of years now. One very popular one being Siri. iPhone users now her very well and of course those android users know her too. Siri wasn't really talked about as an artificial inelegance, it seems like the term AI wasn't used as much then as it's used in todays times. Siri can respond to questions, even sometimes shell make a joke. Not saying they're the best jokes but cmon it's a robot talking to you. Now over the years many new types of AI has been created. For example "Alexa", she was created through Amazon. Now Amazon is just an online shopping sight that for some odd reason created Alexa, probably just trying to 1 up Siri.  Have you every actually wondered how far AI could actually go? Snapchat has it own personal AI that can chat with its users. It will play games like truth or dare even. What's stopping those really really smart people from putting whatever little computer or chip inside a robot body and letting it roam fr

Blog Entry #3: Can you guess it?

 You just need to imagine. Now for some people that's harder for than others, but just try. Im holding something, you're holding something too. It's almost like a metal tin, feels cold on the hands. when you shake the tin you can hear it rattle. It's as if there are a bunch of small objects being shaken in this tin. When we open it we have to kind of pop it open. Take one of the small objects and place it into your mouth. It's got a taste to it but not sure what that taste is, its not sweet and its not sour. It's cooling and almost burns under your tongue. The small objet slowly becomes smaller and smaller the longer it's in your mouth, eventually disintegrating into nothing but fresh breath. What is it?

Blog Entry #2: Stop With the Cucumbers, Eat Some Cake

Image
 Many people try to shy away from desserts because well... we all know why. The problem with this is that when you're trying to be healthy, instead of eating the sweet treat you're craving you try and eat a cucumber instead. We all know a cucumber is nothing like a piece of cake. There are tons of healthy sweats that have plenty of protein and that are gut healthy.  Oatmeal might be a boring breakfast but it is actually a good ingredient to use in dessert. Chocolate covered oatmeal is way better than that boring bowl everyone makes in the morning. Oats actually have a higher source of protein than most other grains. So why not actually make it taste good? There are many recipes on the internet for almost any kind of dessert you want, except this time it's actually made healthy. Ni more feeling bad about every little thing you eat. Once again NO CUCUMBERS!
