Maria- should abortion be legal

types of abortions: take a pill at the clinic (miscarriages)

people say it's "defying God"

abortions reduce the lives of people coming to this earth

the supreme court has declared abortion a "fundamental right"

a woman dying from an abortion is  .6 to 1,000

a woman should have the right to choose what they want to do, don't let your religion get in your way of your decisions.


Angel- Does the internet control us?

There is not much privacy on the apps we use

But the apps give a warning to you to once you join a program

specific search can record what you search things

it's easy to hack anything now

if you don't want the website to record your searches, you can use duck duck go

Perspective

In my presentation, I talked about perspective in a performance in Magic. Perspective happens a lot once we encounter a problem. Because when we look at a problem, we say to ourselves "how do you solve this, this is bloody hard"! But see, we fall into a silo mentality, we only look at a problem from one perspective, our own perspective. Nine times out of ten, or ten times out ten, the solution is extremely clear.  Originally, I wanted to show a video about perspective, but I had a change of plans. So, here's the video of how we fall into a silo mentality.
