As mentioned in the podcast Endless Thread, the internet is one big dumpster fire. You can find anything on the internet from important news articles to memes and gifs. However, the idea of dumpster fires on the internet are all over the place, especially on Reddit. Reddit is an American social news aggregation, web content rating, and discussion website. Before listening to this podcast, I was unfamiliar with Reddit which is why I read an article by John Michael Bond with the Daily Dot to give myself a basic understanding of the site. After listening to the podcast I found it interesting how there are trolls that are fighting dumpster fires on the internet and using their powers for good. I can only imagine the bad internet hackers trying to be funny and making a very inappropriate pages on Reddit. Then, people like Brad who was interviewed in the podcast tells the stories of how he makes these bad Reddit pages back into good ones and brings humor into them. Check out this one Reddit page called r/faggots, which is actually a page dedicated to cigarettes and even features a funny cartoon from the Simpsons. The internet can be a very scary place, people like Brad are really making a great change for the internet. With the amount of hate our World experiences, its unnecessary to bring it to the internet as well. Reddit is like many other sites out there, can be used for good or bad. It's up to you to decide how you are going to interact with the site yourself. The internet is free speech but it's a moral decision to choose whether or not you're going to create your own dumpster fire for users to fall into-- and I suggest you don't.

I began to get into fashion in my early years of high school, when I first began to learn who I was as a person. During the past six years or so, my style has changed quite a bit however what I have been wearing in my college years reflects most comfortably with who I am as a person. Below are 5 outfits I wore within 24 hours surrounding the different activities I take part in from class to dance rehearsal to sleeping. This is a casual outfit I wore to my Tuesday classes and work. I think this outfit represents my style while also keeping me warm during the Syracuse winter. This is a comfortable athleisure outfit that I wore to dance rehearsal. On Tuesday nights I have tap, so this outfit is perfect to move in while also maintaining my style. To bed I wear old shorts and an old t-shirt. I think it takes a spe...
