![]() And this is double fold for youth who are already marginalized.Īs Stefanie Duguay, assistant professor of Communications at Concordia explained to The CBC about LGBTQ youth Tumblr use, “They share GIFs and videos and content around queer celebrities, queer characters, and fanfiction,” Duguay explained. Your Tumblr was definitely not something you shared with anyone.” She continued, “Yet, there was strangely a big sense of community.”Ĭommunity-making on sites like Tumblr can be invaluable in helping young people through their search for identity. While it wasn’t always perfect (I’m looking at you, #thinspo), overall, this caused Tumblr to become a safe space for many young people in the early 2010s.Īs one Concordia student describes, “All the fangirling, aesthetic stock images and memes were incredibly private. ![]() This affordance, mixed with the fairly low median age of users, and possibility for anonymity, led to users sharing a lot more personal information than they would on other platforms. ![]() Being more of a microblogging site than a traditional social media, users were encouraged to publish long posts and personalize their blog’s design. While any media you consume on a regular basis through your tween and teen years is likely to shape you in some way, Tumblr was uniquely good at fostering a community environment. We’re nowhere near the 20-year nostalgia cycle yet, so there must be something special about that time, or our current time, that holds special significance.įor a lot of Zillennials, Tumblr wasn’t just an aesthetic, it was a formative part of their adolescence. Yet, that alone can’t explain its resurgence in recent months. In terms of 2010s fashion, this aesthetic was far from the worst thing in memory. On the music front, in 2014, I, like my fellow Tumblr teens, was listening to Lana Del Rey, Arctic Monkeys, The 1975, and Grimes, because the songs on your iPod Touch were integral to the maintenance of the aesthetic. Now, feed that through the hyper-visual medium of Tumblr and you’ve got yourself countless images of teens in jelly sandals, ripped tights under denim shorts and choker necklaces posing with polaroid cameras, holding up records, or, most commonly, smoking cigarettes. In the 2010s, elder millennials were nostalgic for their youth in the 1990s, and that nostalgia trickled into the style and media of the day. If you didn’t have the (dis)pleasure of living your early teens predominantly online, I can try my best to explain the early 2010s Tumblr aesthetic, often dubbed “ soft grunge.” While the look had little in common with the 90s subculture it got its name from, other than the mere existence of flannel shirts, it could be seen as the product of the 20-year cycle of fashion. This burst of nostalgia came fast and hard, but it hasn’t even been that long since us “Zillennials” were spending our days scrolling down our dashboards. Recently, a lot of people all over the internet have been reliving a certain 2011–2015 subculture that revolved specifically around the website Tumblr. Scrolling through the replies, you see that the aesthetics, music and products from your teen years are all coming back into style. Suddenly a post comes up that stops you in your tracks and drags you right back into your adolescence with a wave of nostalgia. Imagine you’re mindlessly scrolling through Twitter, as we all seem to be doing more and more these days, passively reading through job announcements, middling “hot takes” and COVID-19 stats. All over social media, people are reminiscing over their former Tumblr kid selves

You'll have to cope to catch at sea all sorts of objects from other shipwrecks and junk from other boats to be able to craft the tools you'll need to expand your new home and build weapons. For such purpose, we'll obviously have to face up against different dangers lurking in the sea and that will put our survival skills to the test.ĭeveloped with the Unity graphical engine, the game offers us a 3D scenario that's quite fluid, and without demanding too many technical hardware requirements to be able to run it (it comes along with 32-bit and 64-bit versions, by the way). Just like in the game developed by Mojang, and other similar titles, we'll have to explore the ocean's immensity mainly for two things: to find objects to craft with in order to build a better shelter on our boat and to get hold of water and food. And that's precisely what we'll find in Raft, a sandbox game similar to the mobile version Raft Survival Simulator, with a gameplay similar to Minecraft, that put's in the role of shipwreck survivor roaming around the sea on his wooden raft. especially if you think how hard it would be to survive in those circumstances. The idea of being stranded on a tiny boat in the middle of a large lake or ocean without being able to reach mainland is quite terrifying.

As an immigrant myself, I understand the struggle for anybody that emigrates to another country. Not just for its timeliness, but I really related to it in a much more personal way. But it felt like Culture Shock was the right one. I made a short film called El Gigante in 2014. I’ve been trying to tap into a border-crossing story since I was 21. How long have you had this particular story in your head? “These posters are so creepy, and I was like, ‘This is an opportunity to do Pleasantville gone wrong.’” “When I read this script, it didn’t quite say what America felt like,” says Guerrero, who drew inspiration for the uncanny Cape Joy from World War II propaganda materials that advertised American exceptionalism. After she’s captured by an unknown collective, Marisol ends up in the idyllic American town of Cape Joy, but this victory garden come to life is just a facade for a sinister behind-the-scenes operation where men, women, and children are tied up, tube fed, and treated worse than lab rats. ![]() from Mexico despite one tragically failed earlier attempt. ![]() ![]() Directed by Gigi Saul Guerrero, who co-wrote the script with James Benson and Efrén Hernández, the film tells a harrowing border-crossing story about a pregnant woman named Marisol (Martha Higareda), who’s determined to sneak into the U.S. Photo: Richard Foreman/HuluĬulture Shock, the latest installment of Blumhouse’s Into The Dark anthology on Hulu, feels like it was pulled straight out of the Purge universe.

APMEX is definitely one of the best places to get your precious metal of choice I was having a great experience especially when I got a ten percent off promo as well but then my 5 ounce bar arrived. The website and and payment process was quick and easy. Other then that I highly recommend APMEX, it’s worth every dollar! That’s the only bad part about APMEX, is there customer Service needs more teaching on how to treat customers, especially loyal customers such as myself! Between both of my accounts I’ve spent well over $14k to $15k so I’d expect at least good customer service instead of rudeness. The people I’ve spoken to so far which has been about 5 or 6 people, all have been really rude and when your done with what you called for they practically just hang up on you. Overall my experience has been great with them! The only thing though is that customer service over the phone a lot of them sound really rude and sound as if they don’t like their jobs! That’s the only thing they need to work on. If your looking for great Precious Metals and unique and even exclusive Precious Metals then Apmex is the place to look and buy! Not gonna lie to though, some have high premiums if you compare those with the same coin from other dealers that are a bit smaller then APMEX!

I decide to go with “Intelligent.” I can then choose between “Primary” and “Extended.” I can also specify parts of speech (noun, adjective, etc.) Primary adjectives that come up include “clever,” “brainy,” and “quick-witted,” along with many others. First, it gives me several options for usage, including “intelligent,” “well-dressed,” and “pain” (an older meaning of “smart” means hurts). ![]() I’ll choose the word “smart” as a starting point. To give you a better idea of how you can use MasterWriter to suggest words and phrases quickly, let’s try an example. You can search for “primary” or “extended” words.
![]() Until then, find a home for your armor, and I’ll see you in the arena. And if you want to call these “soft skills” after you’ve tried putting them into practice-go for it. We just haven’t had the courage for real talk about courage. The skill sets that make up courage are not new they’ve been aspirational leadership skills for as long as there have been leaders. We have to be vigilant about creating a culture in which people feel safe, seen, heard, and respected. To scale daring leadership and build courage in teams and organizations, we have to cultivate a culture in which brave work, tough conversations, and whole hearts are the expectation, and armor is not necessary or rewarded. Our armor-the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that we use to protect ourselves when we aren’t willing and able to rumble with vulnerability-move us out of alignment with our values, corrode trust with our colleagues and teams, and prevent us from being our most courageous selves. The greatest barrier to courageous leadership is not fear-it’s how we respond to our fear. Our ability to be daring leaders will never be greater than our capacity for vulnerability. The foundational skill set of courage-building is “rumbling with vulnerability.” Once we have built these rumbling skills, we can move on to the other three skill sets: Living into Our Values, Braving Trust, and Learning to Rise. Embrace the suck.ĭaring leadership is a collection of four skill sets that are 100% teachable, observable, and measurable. ![]() ![]() You can’t get to courage without rumbling with vulnerability.Here are a few of the big ideas that emerged from this research: Courageous Conversations Protocol, a series of writing exercises a reader can conduct after having begun work with the Six. The goal of Dare to Lead is to share everything we’ve learned about taking off the armor and showing up as leaders in a skills-based and actionable playbook. To be really clear, this is NOT apologising for what you said, but rather making sure that what you said didn’t impact them more than it needed to.I’ve spent twenty years studying courage, vulnerability, shame, and empathy, and I recently completed a seven-year study on brave leadership. “My intention was absolutely not to upset you by saying this, and I think you are one of the good guys, but it’s really important to me that I feel able to say what I need to and to be heard.” “The last thing I wanted to do was to make you feel like you’re under attack, and I do really like working with you, but I really want to make sure that we’re building a working environment where everyone feels equal, valued, and respected.” You don’t want to hurt them with what you’re sayingĪnd that you do really value them as a personīut that you need to be heard on this issue because it is important to you This structure lets you reassure the person that: So how can you help them to feel safe so that you can have this conversation calmly and reach a successful outcome? USE ‘DON’T, DO, BUT’Ī structure you can use to calm down any defensiveness is ‘don’t, do, but’. When people become defensive, it’s rarely because of what you’re saying, it’s because they don’t feel safe they fear that they are going to be humiliated or verbally attacked. Most of the time, the likelihood is that actually the perpetrator will just be embarrassed and apologise, but what if they get defensive? ![]() The diode will stop the power from feeding back up the ignition line. To cure this you must install a diode in the ignition wire that activates the #1 terminal. ![]() Another note for special installations of the Si series alternator is that in some cases when you try to shut the vehicle off, power to the #1 terminal from ground to positive power, the positive power feeds up to the coil and keeps the vehicle running. What happens is when the engine is turned off the #1 terminal switches to ground which over time can burn up the voltage regulator or the wire if power is not cut to the #1 terminal. I have heard of situations where a wire was run to the #1 terminal that had power on at all times. Another thing that should be mentioned is the #1 terminal must be ignition switched. Running the ignition wire through a light bulb before connection to the alternator will give you a warning if your alternator fails to start charging or if it quits working while the engine is running, this is commonly known as the idiot light. The ignition wire to the #1 terminal can be supplied in two ways, either a direct ignition wire from the key switch or through a light bulb. Some alternators are wired with a jumper from the #2 terminal directly to the battery connection at the back of the alternators, but this is not needed. The #2 terminal, if it is not used, causes the regulator to revert to internal sensing and pick up the battery voltage at the main battery wire on the back of the alternator. The #2 voltage sensing terminal allows the voltage regulator to sense the battery voltage so it knows when to turn the alternator on and off. The #2 terminal is for voltage sensing, and is optional. You only need an ignition wire to the #1 terminal to make an Si series alternator work. So if your alternator housing is unmarked, look from the rear of the alternator: the #1 terminal is on the left and the #2 on the right. Near the spade terminals, the rear housing should be marked #1 and #2.Some aftermarket housings are not marked and others may be worn off. Most all the Si series alternators should have two spade terminals, but some that have three terminals, the third is for a tachometer connection and senses the alternator RPM. ![]() This particular model (10SI, used in the s and early 80s) is the one youll find on the generation of GM cars most often used in demolition derbies. This diagram shows how to wire a Delco (GM) internally regulated 3-wire alternator. To activate these alternators you are only required to supply the main battery wire to the (BAT) terminal which must have power on and an ignition wire to the #1 terminal. The great thing about these alternators and aftermarket brackets is. All the Si alternators can be considered both 2 and 3 wire systems. Wiring these alternators is quite simple. Although they may vary in size and output, the wiring is the same for all the Si series. This first section will cover wiring information for the SI series only, we will go over the CS and AD series wiring later. Since the introduction of the 10Si, GM's Delco-Remy line has offered the 12Si, 15Si, 17Si, 27Si then the CS and AD series alternators for cars and light trucks. These alternators were quite popular for auto, truck, industrial, marine, farm and adaptive applications. The first internal regulated alternator was the 10Si series starting in the early 70's and used till the mid 80's. The very first alternator was the 10DN externally regulated alternator. General Motors has only had 4 different series alternators since it first replaced generators with alternators in the 1960's. It's simpler to establish circuits and connect the alternator appropriately when you have a clear picture of each component's existing schemes and location.Wiring 10Si, 12Si, 15Si, 17Si, and 27Si Series Alternators Wiring diagrams show how the connections and physical architecture are connected. This type of schematic is advised for enhancing your car unless you are ready to strictly control your budget of electrical systems when travelling at low speeds. Just because two more wires are incorporated into the overall electrical system, this alternator wiring schematic is far less invasive. The main charging wire, a wire that can switch between the regulators, and the electromagnet wire are the three wires in the alternator wiring schematic that uses 3 wires. What's important to remember about this wiring system is that it may help you increase your vehicle's electrical properties to fit your demands. Due to this, all parts receive regulated voltage when a 3-wire alternator wiring schematic is used. These systems can work to produce power in the circuit, unlike alternators which are single wires. ![]() Different purpose alternators are available that have built-in systems for voltage and power monitoring. The energy detection cable monitors voltage and transmits it to the converter, while the energy wire links the alternator and the engine. The ignition input wire is linked to the engine. There are three key wires in the loop: a positive wire for the battery, a sensing wire for voltage, and an igniting wire. The connections between the different circuit parts are shown in an alternating schematic based on 3 wires. ![]() You can learn more about these new Pixelmator features in the full blog post here.
