Appeal Of Reality: How Men and Women Relate

When it comes to how men and women relate to one another, what we hear in the news and on social media is a far cry from what people experience in their everyday lives.

Validation Of Vice: The Consequence Of Instant Gratification

It’s amazing how much the world can change when you are offline for a few weeks. Between the assassination attempt on Trump and Biden stepping down, to the insane and heretical opening ceremony at the Olympics there is a lot to catch up on and talk about.
But before I dive into all of the insane things we have seen happening on the internet, I figured since I just experienced the shock of reintegrating into the internet world after being free from it, it would be a good time to talk about the negative effects that the internet has had on our culture and world, and how we can regain a correct perspective, rather than letting it control us.
