How is it that it’s so hard to communicate with one another face to face yet we can carry a twenty-four-hour conversation on our devices? Is it because we can be quick to delete our true selves and permit ourselves a sense of empowerment to out alter egos; which we project to others for our satisfaction and their expectations of us. Or does the person simply lack proper social skills. When finally having that physical communication with someone you connect with is some type of level, whether if it’s a friendship or a committed relationship we kind of have to not emphasize on their imperfections but be more acceptance towards the other. In the other hand the film HER one protagonist Named Theodore Twombly is significantly showing some level …show more content…
Not only that she is not a human, but she is one of the OS1’s; a computer program. After spending some trying to figure out what he wants, he soon feels a connection with Samantha, that went goes from friendship like communication to experiencing a much deeper attraction. In one scene the two go on a date like occasion and having fun and communicating like “normal” people and Sam emphasizing her want of a human body. Another scene was when Samantha brought in a surrogate so she can feel like she has a body and for him to perform intercourse. In a brief summary Sherry discusses about the turning test. It states: “a test in which the computer would be declared intelligent if it could convince people it was not a machine” (Turkle, Turning 45). In this case this scene best shows Theo is incapable and cannot necessarily detach ideal thought(s) that Samantha can be human too due to her human like qualities even if it means not psychically seeing her. Yet on Samantha’s thought process is capable to feel emotions of her own and his through tone goes back to: “Can machines develop emotions?...emotions that machines cannot achieve?”(Turkle, Lindman 139). Although Samantha is aware of the emotion(s) she is having throughout the film HER, she does not know the actual terms of the feeling(s), like when she sends him the song she of her creating a “photograph” of a

The usual age of artists nowadays can be surmised as very young compared to what was popularized in the mid-80s to the early-90s. We all have been amazed by the impressive talents of musicians as young as 14 until the mid-adult age of 25. It is quite an elating feeling to know that those who are dubbed as The Millenials have this awe-inspiring trait of being confident, despite their seeming inexperience. What they lean on is their talent being developed at an early age, and the challenge they have to undergo is truly valid to enter the general music scene. We can never deny that the more we become music addicts, the more we 're exposed to knowing singers or groups 10 years younger than us.
In the United States, during the eighteen-hundreds’, a small group of people believed that slavery was immoral and did many things to abolish it. John Brown, a Caucasian male who was part of this group of people, did two things that many people in United States history didn’t have the passion to do. John Brown’s life was very interesting: His early life and transition to adulthood, his decision to fight for the cause, his actions of violence in Kansas and Harper’s Ferry, along with, the long-lasting effects of these actions led to his hanging. These events were pivotal to the beginning of the Civil War. “John Brown was born in Torrington, Connecticut, on May 9, 1800, five months after the death of George Washington”(Marrin,7).

He is a genius and an athlete, is under-handicapped, and should be regarded as extremely dangerous.” However, in this short story “Harrison Bergeron”, Kurt Vonnegut uses irony, shift and mood, and allusion to illustrated haw society would be if everyone was under the law of equality.
Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address Rhetorical Analysis The purpose of this speech is detailed in the time period. This speech was written/spoken at the end of the American Civil war. It is President Lincoln’s way of putting a tentative end to the war and a start to the recovery period.

The purpose of John Steinbeck’s passage is to demonstrate the decay of the inner city as the city expands and grows. Steinbeck illustrates his purpose through the use of various rhetorical devices. Steinbeck’s use of imagery helps him achieve his purpose. Throughout the passage, various descriptions of poverty-filled, dirty, and negative images help him show how the inner city is spiraling towards a much harsher, ill city as time goes on. Steinbeck displays his view of the inner city’s decay as he describes previous commercial properties: “...and small fringe businesses take the place of once flowering establishments.”
Abraham Lincoln was the 16th president of the United States and Commander in Chief during the Civil War. He was a member of the Free Soil Party and later became a Republican. Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing the slaves in the Confederate States after the Battle of Antietam, and ultimately led the North to victory in the Civil War. What most do not know, however, is that he got to that point after a long road of lying and deception. Abraham Lincoln constantly altered his views on slavery and other issues during the 1800s purely based on his audience.
Individuals breathe life into a society, they shape it with their ideas and beliefs. However, when these beliefs become corrupted, do individuals have the power to change it?. In the short stories “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson, “Harrison Bergeron” by Kurt Vonnegut, and the theories of enlightenment philosophers, individuals can not change society. Tessie Hutchinson from “The Lottery” tried to persuade her village that the long-standing tradition was wrong, but faced death soon afterwards. On the other hand, Harrison from “Harrison Bergeron,” tried to overthrow society's ideas, through atrocious actions.
