#my rookie s7 commentary

[detectivechen]

wherefore art thou, small doses?

coming out of retirement inactivity to say it’s reductionistic to contextualize the current disrespect towards miss chen (in chenford) as racist. when actual racism appears on screen, it’ll be harder for those unfamiliar with dog whistles to recognize and address them because everything under the sun concerning lucy has been previously labeled as ‘racist.’

but! while racism may be an infinitesimal factor for chenford right now, internalized misogyny certainly is not. it’s disappointing, but not surprising, to see so many make excuses for tim’s head-scratching behavior towards lucy because of it. the GP will always fawn over mid white men. it’s the reason why nathan fillion stays employed playing boring as fuck nolan.

it’s insulting, though, for creatives like alexi hawley and eric winter to parrot PR talking points supplementing what isn’t actually depicted on the show. we’re not stupid. we don’t need commentary to interpret source material. we need to see what constitutes as tim ‘working on himself’ to make our own judgments about the viability of chenford’s path forward.

with the information we currently have, it would behoove lucy to cut her losses now before she gets more hurt and disrespected. wdym this man’s FORTY and still playing these mf games?! this is supposed to be the behavior of a man who’s tryna spin the block?! 

tim’s quips at lucy weren’t landing in 702 because they made him look good at her expense. the contrast is jarring between lucy giving tim lingering looks that suggest their romance isn't dead and tim opting for (maybe even relishing in?) hitting lucy where it hurts using condescension, oftentimes in front of others!

is pulling her pigtails how you rebuild a relationship you fractured after she saw and accepted your ooc baggage? after she begged you to let her in? this approach doesn’t even help the show's bottomline, i.e. keeping the show on air as long as possible by keeping its core audience engaged, when their social strategy is dependent on using chenford as clickbait.

personally, i have no doubt there will be new chenford moments coming down the pipe to keep the flame of hope alive for us. those will be cute, but they won’t be enough to offset their wasted potential.

Information Literacy - START (Assessing Websites) - CN29

           Today, I will tell about blogs that I visited that are put together by individuals or collaboration of individuals and also I will tell below about “What kind of information exchange happening on these social media?”, “What purpose does the information serve?”, “Who provides the information”, and “What do I think their motivations and motives are”.

           The first blog site I wanted to talk about is https://www.celticsblog.com/. I often visit this blog because my favorite sports team is Boston Celtics and also a Celtics’ Fan. I often visited the blog to keep me updated about their latest news, games, team roster, trade rumors, etc.  The blog is also covering fan shots, fan posts, forum, and more. The blogs talks anything about Boston Celtics. The information tells about their future perspective of their franchise, how they will build a more solid and stronger team or super team, how they will able to win championships, what are their missions and goals, and also trusting their process. The information is provided by Celtics’ fans and Celtics’ blog staffs. For me, the blog is the reason I am a loyal Celtics fan because even if the Celtics don't reach the playoffs or have a losing record or even trading their superstars. This blog give me idea why they are doing so and having a losing record or bad season. Because they might wanted to rebuild or have higher draft picks and get rookies for the future of their franchise because in NBA if your team is rank lower you will able to get higher draft picks but it is a risk because sometimes the high drafted rookie players turn out to be a bust (or didn’t do much or contribute much) for the franchise in the future. These ideas made me stick to Boston Celtics even though they are having worst season or else I would have chosen teams like Golden State Warriors or Cleveland Cavaliers.

           The second blog site I wanted to talk about is http://www.nbalive.gg/. This blog is more about a game called NBA Live Mobile. I like to visit this site because I like playing NBA Live Mobile. The game is more of a card game with auction house where I can buy and sell cards and coins with other players. The blog keep me updated about their latest news. The news tells about its updates, patches, and what new player cards they are going to release. The information is provided by a person named Kraelo. Visiting their blog help keeps me updated about what new players are they going to release and because new players cost higher, I could sell them at a higher price and earn more coins. Like in real life, an example is Samsung S7, when it is first released, the price is high but after some time will the price will eventually drop. These are the reason for me the blog is useful.

           The third blog site I wanted to talk about is “ESPN” blog. The blog is being run by the website: http://www.espn.com/. The blog is more about sports. The blog site covers many sports like NBA, NFL, NHL, MLB, MMA, WWE and more. The blog essentially talks about anything related to sports. From player movements, injuries, signings, fan reactions, and commentaries. Most of the time, I visited the blog to see WWE, NBA, and NCAA blogs because these are the only ones I watch. The site also has live scores, stats, box scores, recaps, radios, and many more. I believe the blog was put up by http://www.espn.com/ to spur interest on sports and generate more traffic for the site. I would considered the ESPN to be giants because it is already famous that is why they have many advertisers. I also noticed that they don’t allow readers to interact or make comments. The site is also connected many other social medias like Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. Link is http://www.espn.com/.

           Aside from Sports Team and games, the most recently blog I visited is http://balcroft.com/improve-communication-skills/. The reason I visited the blog is because it is also part of our English Oral Communication lesson. The blog is about 10 ways to improve your communication skills.  The blog show how a person can communicate effectively. It provides tips and information about communication skill. It shows that person from digital age must know how to effectively convey and receive messages in person as well as via phone, email, and social media. The blog also show that effective communication is essential when communicating important messages, delegating tasks, and understanding feedback from others.  Improving your communication skills can positively impact relationships with others. The information is provided by a person named Suzi West. For me, the blog is important because it can be useful for me in the future when doing business, finding jobs, or even now.

           Since I am also interested in tall buildings, the next blog I want to talk about is https://www.radissonred.com/blog/travel/10-of-the-tallest-skyscrapers-in-the-world/. The blog talk about the tallest skyscrapers in the world. The blog shows where the location of the buildings is, what the height is, and when it is completed. The blog also shows the description of the buildings like the number of floors, the speed of some elevators, and also the picture. The information is provided by an unknown person. I think the purpose of the blog is to help attract tourists to go the location and visit it.

             Last but not the least; this is the last blog I will be talking about: http://dailyblogvlog.com/top-10-expensive-cars/. The blog is about the top 10 most expensive cars in the world. The blog contains the car’s price and the car’s picture. The blog didn’t say much about the cars, it is more on pictures. The information is uploaded by unknown person. I think the purpose of this blog is to give the rich people or the rich kids ideas what cars are they going to buy. The problem in this blog is there are too few descriptions about the cars.

           As a conclusion, blogs are created to provide information for people and also to earn money and popularity.
