Hi Kassidy,

Yes! Communication is cultivated and constantly changes through an individuals life cycle and experiences. This study is very intriguing! Through studying this subject, we can better understand each other.

Hi,

The Family Communications Patterns Theory was a good one to learn about. It’s very useful to assess what sort of environment a group of people conduct within a home and how it shapes communications for the members of that unit.

Hello Kelsey,

Yes, all of our social media is tailored to our view and ideas of what we want in the world. Have you ever taken someone else’s phone and scrolled through their “For You” page? Usually it’s a foreign experience because you’re so used to seeing what you usually see. #UTCommTheory

Hello,

Yes, lately it seems like social media and politics has been so intertwined. It’s also like the government is getting more ideas from media based conversations and concepts. #UTCommTheory

Hello,

How adorable is it that people we have never met before can bring us such immense comfort and relatability. I have a few parasocial relationships like this with YouTubers as well. #UTCommTheory

Hello George,

Isn’t it kind of scary how almost every network we watch is owned by another one? It’s like even if you tried to escape…you really don’t haha. Disney holds quite a bit of power and influence on people and culture. What a powerful position to be in… #UTCommTheory

Hello Luke,

We have all had moments where the things we post become single audience and our privacy can be compromised! Family finding you is always the worst when you’re young! #UTCommTheory

Hello,

Now this is a positive application of AI. I do the same thing with my resume when I edit it to ensure it looks good. AI can sometimes catch those things we miss for sure. #UTCommTheory

Hi Kelsey,

This nonassertive approach is definitely safe for when you don’t know others that much. You don’t want to get too personal but you also don’t want to offend them..hence utilizing the small talk. I like this strategy for strangers. #UTCommTheory

This is also me when people wave and then I wave back, but they weren’t waiving at me. So then I just have to act like I didn’t do it to “save face”. Haha! #UTCommTheory

Hello Adrian,

It is better when everyone has a say in what is happening around them! It makes decisions and changes seem more group-oriented than just a commander yelling at the people below what to do. That is how having decisions made for you can feel at times. #UTCommTheory

Hello,

I can agree with you. Amazon doesn’t treat their employees very well and are having multiple Union strikes. I believe the treatment of their employee should change as well as the all work no rest culture there.

Thanks for sharing! #UTCommTheory
