Exploring the Dark Web...What could possibly go wrong?

Out of curiosity, I decided to read the Medium article "I Went on the Dark Web and Instantly Regretted It" by Kallol Mazumdar. The internet is both a blessing and a curse, therefore as society becomes more corrupt; it truly depends on how would others react and respond towards this matter. The Dark Web is truly a diabolical creation which was made for the heinous intentions, especially taking advantage of those who have fallen into boredom and curiosity. How disturbed does one have to be in order to pursue in something so sinister, "it just makes me question humanity" (Mazumdar). The Dark Web does not contain nor produce any positive internet content, for example; "[o]rdering a hitman to kill someone...[a]ccessing abuse porn including minor age pornography...[a]ll kinds of drugs," (Mazumdar). The Dark Web is wicked website-and is not to be trusted nor to be explored, whatever the case by be.

I would highly recommend for others to remain off this notorious website; if not only for one's mental health, but also for their safety. Although, I do not have any personal experience; I would highly prefer to keep it that way. Sadly, our world is sinful and filled with sinful people. However, we must be able to protect ourselves, not only for our safety-but also for the ones we love. I do not judge those who have fallen into boredom and curiosity, but only if they remain out of trouble; which can permanently damage one's life. On the final note, I have nothing against the internet; just remain safe and be aware of the dangers of the Dark Web. Image Source: My Pinterest account (Not the Dark Web...)

Maybe just one more chapter...

Happy 6th week of college, everyone! I can hardly believe how fast time flies. This evening, I read the Medium article, "What Are Mini Books and Why You Should Publish Them?” . I thought it made some valid points. I believe reading is essential. When one is a well read individual, it improves his or her abiltiy to relate to his or her peers. As it often pulls from literature, being well read also allows one to better appreciate various forms of entertainment. Reading a book that others also read or have read is means of social connection. Unfortunately, in today’s world, our time is limited. So many demands are placed upon our time, we often don't have the leisure time required to become fully engrossed in a lengthy novel. Despite this, there is a solution: mini books. (I, a lover of all things miniature, am intrigued by this concept.) "Mini books are designed to be consumed in one or two sittings, which is exactly what today’s busy readers love” (Thompson). Do ...

Technology, the Murderer of Small Talk? Guilty as Charged.

Howdy fellow Pioneers. Have your assignments been raging war with your sleep cycle? I've been staying up later than usual myself, trying to keep up with my classes. It's not all bad, though. I love me some sleep, but some of my assigned reading has been pretty interesting. Take this article for instance, "Technology, the Cause of Possible Mutilation and the Murder of Small Talk. I say, somewhat hypocritically, (I am using the internet right now, after all) that technology has done nothing for most people's social skills. I can safely say that Ijeoma Anaka agrees with me, as her article was all about the pitfalls of modern technology. She goes so far as to claim that iPhones, laptops and other technological devices are destroying our ability to communicate IRL (see what I did there? ;)) Is my beloved iPhone really ruining my health, or worse - my social life? That what this article asserts. More convincing might be my friend, Gabby, who is having...

Stormtroopers...The Mask Comes Off.

Happy Friday Freshmen Troopers! We've made it to the end of another week (whew!). I get a little bit slap happy by day 5, and start to have trouble focusing on my studies. Thanks to the internet, comic relief is never far away, and after my Principles of Management textbook, everything seems a bit more funny by comparison. "Troops (1997) Star Wars" Do you remember Space Balls? Well this Star Wars parody, I found isn't quite as funny as that, but it's still good for a laugh. I grew up with 2 older brothers who took the Star Wars movies very seriously. Being older than me, they usually controlled the remote. I must have seen the entire Star Wars franchise a dozen times at least. I never understood the grip it had on them, which might be why I enjoy seeing it poked fun of. There's just something comical about seeing those terrifying, armor-wearing Stormtroopers portrayed as bumbling, intergalactic policemen. Gone is their aloof, mysterious n...
