Science. Science has an always been and will always be a worldly subject that all generations should be educated about. A certain YouTube creator/scientist/science enthusiast, has always been in the younger generations lives. The man that entertained as well as informed the younger generation of the importance of science was none other than Bill Nye the science guy. Bill Nye received over 4 million views in each video. Our teachers would show us and for some reason he was more entertaining than any person who has taught an online course. He grasped the viewers attention while providing useful information. Bill Nye continue to show our generation how to be informed while being interested and entertained. Because of Bill Nye the younger generation is more informed within the science department and now has a great memory of learning. Bill Nye may not be as popular as TikTok or Instagram or Snapchat or some sort of social media, but the younger generation didn’t even realize how big of a role he played in our life as a young adolescent. For generations passed, I’m sure they had the same type of person who displayed some type of information that wasn’t really meant to be entertaining but it was and that’s what they loved about it and made them want to know more. Although Bill Nye may not be the most famous person in the world, he still showed the younger generation that learning can be fun and that the younger generation should continue to want to learn so that when they grow older they can express their information in the same way that he did.

The sad music begins to play and the human emotion displayed on the screen is unlike any other. Somehow a text on a screen along with a view of a person who looks in clear despair, can affect a random person on the internet. The way that the people of our generation is allowing things like this to impact their life is a new concept to the past generations. I’m sure they are thinking “How in the world can a young adult in this world let something within a tiny metal-full box affect them so much?. The answer is clear. The generation that the young adults have created for themselves is filled with new technological ideas in which they are letting affect them in their thoughts and their everyday life. Although this can be thought of in a negative way, it can also be thought of in an informative way. Unfortunately some of the news posted on social media can be misinterpreted by the receiver or sender, incorrect, or just completely twisted into something it’s not. This is why today’s generation also needs to be careful about what they see and believe. “We’re all in our own fishbowls. We should hesitate before we pass judgment on what life is like in the fishbowls of others.” ( Menand 9). Within the reading “ It’s time to stop talking about “Generations”, the quote just mentioned expresses the way that people are their own type of person and others should not judge or try to fix others for being different or unique. This correlates to the social media perspective in todays world. It’s a lot easier to be unique especially because of the amount of types of people who are active on all types of social networking. Being your complete authentic self can be hard, but thankfully the new generation has brought light to the fact that everyone is different and there is no “fitting in”, there is only being your true self.

I always love to have deep conversations that really get the mind turning with friends and teachers.
