All Right Let's Do This One Last Time

    Many newspapers and other sources of media rely on photographs to provide evidence of newsworthy events. They all believe that pictures are undeniable, unfailing, and incorruptible. However, soon after pictures were found to be the most reliable form of proof, the art of distorting this form of evidence was quickly created. Reality can always be warped to benefit certain individuals, which is why nothing should ever be taken as the ultimate truth unless proven by multiple other sources.  Take Spider-Man 3, (the one that came out in 2007), as an example of how reality can be manipulated. In this universe, J. Jonah Jameson is the head editor-in-chief of the Daily Bugle, and he has an unfounded vendetta against Spider-Man. His #1 goal is to make him look like a criminal or an untrustworthy vigilante. So, when presented with photos of Spider-Man saving the city, the headlines of his newspaper say "Spider-Man- Hero or Menace?" instead of "Spider-Man saves the city again!...

     Science is great. Thanks to science humanity has overcome multiple plagues and pandemics, as well as created easier ways of life through technology. However, there are limits to how much the laws of nature can be bent in favor of humans. Scientific discovery can be a curse as much as it can be a blessing, and this is seen in multiple scenarios.

Soon after being crippled while performing an emergency battle surgery, Kurt Connors began to work towards an ideal goal, a world without weakness. He discovered that this could be done through cross-species genetics, more specifically the genetics of lizards. Lizards are known to have regenerative genes, and therefore Dr. Connors saw an opportunity. He began running tests to try and create a cure for his ...

          Eating junk food is one of the many examples of how Akrasia overcomes people, considering that the most successful food restaurants are those that belong to the fast-food category. People are more likely to know about and be familiar with McDonald’s, Taco-Bell, and Burger King than they are with places like Tropical Smoothie Café or Beyond Juicery + Eatery. (Literally, as I was looking up other healthy restaurants to add to this list I was only familiar with those two.) This is due to accessibility, price, guaranteed quality among all locals, and advertisement. It is human nature to search for shortcuts. Therefore, when provided with a limited and complicated option vs an easy and accessible option, people choose the latter. The second option is what fast-food restaurants are-fast and easy. It is not their dining experience or “fresh” and “organic” products that draw customers in, but the drive throughs and working hours. It is remarkably easier...
