Our World's Connectivity Is Being Compromised

Will we surrender our well-being to new tech networks?

How can a seemingly "separate", yet connected set of roads wrap the globe as to unite the human race?

We create human progress through sets of innovations allowing us to expand this so-called idea of connectivity. It introduces a level of coordination and unity, but it's mandatory to take into account the level of complication and risk in order for this extent of expansion.

The overflow of technological networks can disturb the human pattern of acquiring skills as we become more dependent on tools, to a certain extent, dictate our lives. More valuable jobs are being replaced by newer innovations, in which we can question whether our connections among peers are reliable. Human response is not clear, as we've surrendered to metal objects.

As trust and truth fade, all kinds of societal tensions unfurl. Human instincts are being preyed upon as we unceasingly remain subjects. It's difficult to resort to convenience, comfort, and care when we become vulnerable to new tech tools targeting and manipulating us, as if our well-being is a crime.

In the coming years, it's only a matter of perception of whether we are entering a world of concerning hazards or amazing innovations.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
