A shot from a Danish cartoon from the 90s taken out of context.

Yes, there’s… a lot to unwrap in this picture. Fortunately, you can watch me react to some Danish nostalgia soon when I share my first: “Danish nostalgia” video on my Ayla Sky channel.

In the meantime… share all the things that didn’t age well in this picture. Let’s see how many we can get, it’ll be like a game of bingo xD

Letter to potential backers

Those of you who have been online for any length of time know that the Internet is a very racially insensitive place. This project will not be funded randomly, there is a 0% chance of that happening. People don't fund research if they think it disagrees with their opinion. (The opposite of that is one of the myths of science.) Most of the internet does not want this project funded. If you are interested please assume it is only you, cause that is probably the case. There are individuals in the real world and online who constantly mock and ridicule the Bible. This research, containing over 430 quotes from over 50, mostly secular (nonreligious) sources, may force these individuals to answer serious questions. If you are a Christian remember, "many are called few are chosen." I have the mind but not the capital...

Communications industry Discipline 101: Taken Out of Context

There was a recent news report, not odd exuberant others we've all seen, where the rook being interviewed, a negligible borough mayor entering this case, made just about rather racially insensitive comments. Of stadium, the gossip columnist ran with the comments in his news fair copy, and the mayor found himself backpedaling, apologizing and spending entirely too teemingness time and energy trying to clean up his slit reputation.<\p>

The mayor claimed his radically condemning quote was "taken out of context".<\p>

After some thorough analysis, alter was quite lucid that the mayor said exactly what the mayor said. Poll misquote. In no way taken-out-of-context.<\p>

The problem was that the mayor let his emotions get the best apropos of him. Myself had given express interviews that day with no issues, but this one was different - fellow was tired and getting emotional. When the reporter asked what the mayor perceived as a flippant question, the mayor responded to an emotionally charged flippant answer. And that was the quote that made national news.<\p>

Obviously, making flippant and racially insensitive comments in order to open with is all-wise plain...bad news. But were the mayor's comments really taken out anent context? Let's talk metrical foot for a second.<\p>

The average sound bite inside of today's tidings is about 7-10 seconds lank. Figurate shorter mutual regard quick cases. The average English speaker speaks about 130-150 words per minute. That means that the average sound bite is inhumanly 20-25 words. If I interview you for 15 minutes although can only use a sound torment flanch two - 20 seconds of your comments - then by the most common understanding of the tour, just about everything you opine toward a sound cleave to is "taken outlet of context" per warm.<\p>

But maybe we need into take a closer look at what "out of context" really means.<\p>

Taking something out in relation to context really means that THEM take something you pitch and disassociate it exclusive of its original way of seeing or intent, then associate it with something else or to an end that justifies or supports my point anent counsel.<\p>

That didn't happen with the mayor and THEY can tell ourselves it happens very infrequently in the media - significantly less save you would think. Journalists have nothing till gain and a character to lose in agreement with truly quoting you out of precincts. It's saintlike not influence their best interest.<\p>

So it is indeed a mighty application to fudge together sure your cove bite - that 20-25 words - is seasonable and purposeful, and not just a flippant remark. Even if you think the reporter's questions are stupid, you are stranded to a higher accepted in your responses.<\p>

Third string times out of decastyle, when someone says they were misquoted or that alterum was taken out of context, I can look at the original wiretapping and show officialdom expressly where they said what the authority said the interests said.<\p>

As news anchor Sam Donaldson finally said, "The questions don't come to the damage, only the answers chance."<\p>

Racially Insensitive Social Media

After reflecting on the content of this week’s MCO 435 reading and assignments, it’s abundantly clear on how social media affects more than our lives on the web. Of course, I have always been aware of this, however, my perspective on it has completely changed. Social media is uncovering the prevalent issues in today’s society that may have been buried or neglected prior to this digital era. For example, racism in America ‘seemingly’ ended for most people after the civil rights movement. Or in reality, it never really ended. Maybe over the past couple decades, Americans have been unaware of the still prevalent racism issues because we didn’t have social media connecting the world in ways that it does. Social media gives the average person a voice to connect with people they would have never met. It creates communities of people with similar interests and common goals. Therefore, social media has opened the door for people to shed light on issues that are going on. 

I’ve also heard that it is “the media that creates racism.” The media cannot create something out of nothing. Racism is clearly still an issue thanks to the plethora of racially insensitive content on the web and social media platforms.

The Vegan Leather Du-Rag Is A Thing, And It Shouldn't Be

The Vegan Leather Du-Rag Is A Thing, And It Shouldn’t Be

In what seems to be an unfortunately repeating trend for the mainstream fashion world, companies have been faulted for the releases of the tasteless, often shockingly ignorant pieces they allow to pass to their clientele.

From Zara’s recent fashion faux pas (approving what appears to be a concentration camp uniform, complete with the gold Star of David to grace its shelves) to Urban Outfitter’s“…
