My name is Brandin. I am currently studying nutrition at ASU. I love food, cooking, traveling, and and the excitement of new experiences.

A short Tumblr collaboration of the things I learned this week regarding my understanding of intersectionality as well as the impact social media has on our mental and behavioral processes: https://t.co/kLMz2rBFL6 #MCO435

@EndiaxRain Great job! I love the new term "disinformation". The term "Fake news" has forever been tainted. #MCO435

@Supa_Dupa_Roy Great job on your story! It seems you had a very good understanding of what was required for this assignment as well as a great understanding of the material covered this week. #MCO435

Some information is so obviously false, it' is astounding what some people will believe as a result of their own biases. #MCO435 #Botometer

@NormGuy5 @Twitch That is really cool! Also very rare. My guess is they don't focus on using that information for profit because they make their money through user activity. Unlike Facebook and how they make there profits through marketing and selling their users' demographic info. #MCO435

[Brandin West @BrandinWest]

@SherriLeggo Yes, that sounds about right. Even then, there are probably third party sites that can hold onto certain information involving your data and Facebook use. Many other companies and site use Facebook to gather information. #MCO435

Does Myspace still have your data? They obtain the right to keep your data for "a reasonable amount of time." So how long is reasonable? #MCO435 https://t.co/ohxZZXozrS

@Millahstweets Yeah what is up with that? It's as if social media is a completely alternate reality. Like you're lucky to be their friend or something.

@LexiThompson2nd Yes! This happens to me way to often lol. That awkwardly silent walk is the worst. Sometimes I'll walk a different direction just to avoid it. Then I have to back track to get where I am going.

If you have ever taken hot yoga... #MCO435 #yogameme

[Brandin West @BrandinWest]

@AvaRyan95237929 @WholeFoods This is the one I chose to use as an example as well. It all looks so appetizing and pleasing to the eye. It is very colorful and actually makes me excited to go grocery shopping! #MCO435

[Brandin West @BrandinWest]

@Caroline_EV18 @UrbanOutfitters Pretty cool! The way they set up their Pinterest makes it easier to shop and browse than on their actual site. Very straight forward and less for your eyes to scan past before you can see what you want. #MCO435
