“It gets better”, is always a cliché saying for someone with depression to hear. The constant reminder that it can just “go away”, but it doesn’t. It stays with you as long as you’re alive. When people say that they have a broken arm, everyone flocks to them, wanting to put their signature onto the cast. If you say you have depression, they run the other way. People don’t want to be around somebody, who is stereotyped to self-harm, always cry, and look sad. Depression isn’t always that case. It’s this feeling of constant sadness that you always mask over with a bright smile, broken eyes, and the daily “I’m fine”’s.

Mental health issues. If you use social networks, you’ll be quite familiar with the word.

The main social group portrayed in the cartoon “On Satire” by Joe Sacco, published in The Guardian, is the cartoonists. “On Satire” portrays other cartoonists as obnoxious, insensitive cavemen who often cross the line between satire and just outright offensive mockery of the religious beliefs of Muslims.

Also he is aiming to get governments and news outlets to consider ways in which to stop terrorism by understanding where they are coming from instead of just eradicating all Muslims and hoping that terrorism dies with them.

Wide, sunny beaches, yellow sand and clear water paints the picture perfect Sydney. Cut to Mount Druitt, a town filled with graffiti, garbage, and government housing, where the controversial new documentary Struggle Street is set. This borderline ‘mockumentary’ aims to show a side of Sydney that is rarely seen, but unless the producer – David Galloway - set out to do this in the most depreciating manner possible, the documentary has missed the mark. Although the audience duly tries to feel sympathy for the shocking stories “uncovered”, the mocking undertones undermine all seriousness, removing almost all chances for the audience to feel legitimate, heartfelt compassion.

Being labeled a muckraker is a label I would not mind having. Without muckrakers how would we find out the whole truth about individuals and businesses, not just the stuff they tell us. Muckrakers find out information that is needed to be made public, but for whatever reason, is not told to the public. I support Mitford’s view that it is an honor to be called a muckraker.

For my satire project, I chose the topic of the struggle of customer service and how it can influence you psychologically. The reason I chose this topic was because I am in fact a part time worker at a fairly busy ice cream/ fine chocolate shop in which our primary goal is to keep the customer happy and satisfied. But sometimes, the process of doing that can be challenging and draining for the employee, such as myself. Therefore I chose a topic that I felt passionate about and that I could physically relate to, which helps to make my writing more effective.

During the Age of Enlightenment, people began believing in and relying upon rational thought instead of religious dogma to explain the world. This newfound emphasis on rationality promoted a breadth of freedom in speech that was previously unknown, a fact which was utilized by philosophers such as John Locke, Rousseau, and Sir Isaac Newton. In addition, the Age of Enlightenment produced famous writers who didn’t agree with the irrational politics and old traditions of their respective countries, and instead relied upon wit and satire to expose the corruption and poor human condition existing around them.
