From Hearth to Hatred and Back Again
The late cattle rancher, Grateful Dead lyricist, and author of The Declaration of Independence of Cyberspace said of the internet in its early days that he envisioned the world wide web becoming the new "hearth" of the twenty-first century. Families all over the world would be gathered in front of the soft glow of their computer screens, they would be linked to others around the globe, able to share their stories and photographs resulting in a greater understanding and appreciation for one another.

Why I Deleted Tik Tok
It started when quarantine did. My university had basically just told us all to go the fuck home. Immediately. I was crying in the club- aka, my bed- as I tried to reason out whether I wanted to go home to a less than ideal environment, stay on a practically deserted campus, or run off into the distance barefoot and get a head start on the apocalypse. Thrown into the depths of worry and despair, I opened up tik tok.

The Worst Thing I've Done
I generally consider myself a kind and selfless person when it comes to anything. I'm the type of person to rather keep my plate full over another's if I could help it. I've always hated the idea of burdening others or inconveniencing them, and so I've always kept my issues to myself and have always made sure to treat others with kindness.

Who are you without social media?
The internet has seen a drastic hit in censorship as we kick off this new year. We rely on social media for many things whether it’s information, creativity, business or personal, it’s our way of connecting in this new digital age. But as we’ve seen how quickly and easily Big Tech can flip the switch, social media can be taken down in an instant. Heck, there might as well be a new meaning behind “INSTAgram”. So, it got me thinking the question, who are you without social media?
