The world is a weird place.

So, who are you really within it?

The Con?

Ever since we learned about the Panopticon in class I’ve caught myself always noticing where the cameras are in the places I frequently go too. Also, I’ve been wondering a lot more if there is actually someone watching me when I look at these cameras. Has this happened to anyone else since gaining this knowledge?

I always noticed where cameras were in places I went and I’ve always wondered if people watch them..

[jamierives93]

I thought it was a cool way to refer to the Panopticon and how you're conned into thinking you're being watched all the time...

Love this jacket!! The model isn’t bad either…..

[jamierives93]

Yeah! I've never understood the ripped jeans trend though. Maybe that's just me 😅

Oh okay. It's just a weird thing to think about when you put it with the concept of surveillance culture these days. In that context; among others, it makes so much sense why you see cameras almost everywhere these days.

Sometimes it's hard to be social

Anyone have any thoughts on how society often puts the blame on the wrong people? And how they make excuses for those who have done wrong?

[jamaicanmecrazy-0]

Its so unfortunate that this happens. I wish we could change the world.

[keisha92]

We can make differences…....

[jamierives93]

I agree, education is a major part of it. If people knew more, they'd understand more situations.

Spoiled??

I was out shopping yesterday and was unlocking my new car and overheard a man call me a “spoiled bitch” to his buddies…. I don’t think I’m a spoiled bitch…. It wasn’t me who made other people less fortunate…

Life throws everyone a different situation.

Today's Class

Today's soci class was really interesting. Even though it's something I've thought of before, today in class it was not something that I really thought about when it was mentioned in class. We watched a researcher present her findings on hook up culture. One piece of info that she presented was the fact that there's a double standard for guys and girls who hook up. This double standard could be seen as a patriarchal way of holding power over women. It's a standard that's saying men can have as many exploits as they want, but women must be much more exclusive. Such a standard can also be seen as oppressive to women in they fact that it controls, or at least influences their actions, depending on how much they care about the thoughts others carry of them.

This is a terrifying statistic. Don’t be afraid to speak up if this has ever happened to you. There is a lot of support out there for you! Be safe everyone

Day dreamer

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to run away. Whenever it rains like it is today, I wonder what I'd find if I just left. I also wonder who'd miss me, if anyone besides my family. I wonder if it'd help me find myself... Because ya know, that's something that should happen to all of us. At some point at least.

I love this scarf

Its rainy days like this that get you thinking about life. The rain falls so freely and undeterred by everything around it. To bad it's hard to be like that as a person in today's age... so many things trying to get you down..
