IT: Clowns in the Woods Man -

So I both read and watched the new movie as well as got through the book. And let me just start by saying there was quite a bit left out of the book from the movie but nothing I felt truly took away from the book. The book is gruesome. Like no joke it is one of those things that is just brutally gory which I think the second movie compared to the first acknowledged.  I also think that we just saw into the characters more so than we ever had. Obviously, movies can only cover so much. But the book just made me feel closer to these kids who in the end are just children and we see that with how they interact with one another and each other. You can even bring up the group sex scene that ends up happening in it (weird part) can be equated to a coming of age portion in the book and binding all of these kids together.

In Class Assignment: Media Tech in the Next 50 years

2020: The future of tech will be more advanced, the introduction of 8 k in both cinema and games as well as a commercialized full introduction into VR. We will begin our race into the completely digital era. Androids will be more common in the service industry. I think we will still be experimenting on a medical level with grown organs but it will not be in mass production until later on in the next 20 years or so. I think for my industry specifically VR will become more and more mainstream with more and more gaming hubs and arcades appearing as one of the new entertainment systems. 2030: VR is fully implemented and by this time we will being completely connecting to a virtual world or there will be some sort of major virtual component to our lives. I believe we will implement chips that make automation easier as well as contacts and or glasses that make it. Gaming will be pushed to more of an incorporation of everyday life and becomes even a further form of e...

The Martian: Potatoes, Poop, and Pioneers -

I am not a huge fan of reading science fiction, rather it has been such a long time since I ever read any science fiction in the slightest. I mean, I think the last piece of literature I actually read on the matter is Ender's Game and lets just say after about hearing about the author I didn't touch another book in the series. So the Martian, proved to be very interesting to me in the sense I wanted to keep reading it. Now the genre itself is super appealing to me. I love space things and anything to do with the future. I love talking about where our world is heading tech wise- etc. The Martian specifically should just be a lesson to everyone how you must survive and hopefully, you have former crew members and some competent people willing to come for you after getting stuck on literally another planet. Overall I liked the story, it didn't seem like I was reading anything new while diving into this though. Just seems like a tale I have heard over and over again. I mean we ...

Bloodchild Questions

1. What was your reaction to what you just read? Well I guess I am left in awe a bit. Like it is a feeling of dread and yet at the same time it is a feeling of complacence. Like the whole being used as a breading ground is interesting because it seems there is a bond that is formed between the Tlic and those Terrans who become N'Tlic. Like it is a survival thing on both ends and all highly political. Like I agree with Gan that if this is the process it should be normalized so that it isn't so shocking in the end. Yes, it is private but Terran's should know what they are getting into. Like the Terrans need the Tlic to survive and thrive this world. I don't know. I think there should be repercussions put in place that assure that the N'Tlic have a successful birth, and punishment for those Tlic who fail at that. I don't know it is like a story taking place in the beginning of modern human medicine now adays. Like some people die and with those deaths comes advan...
