Social Media and Free Speech
Hello Rebels, and welcome back to my life.
Let’s talk about social media, which is both a wonderful method of communicating to people with similar interests across the world, and a horrible timesuck that can take up hours of our lives that could be spent doing more productive things.
That sounds harsh, but despite the amount of time we can and do spend on social media, it can also be really great!
Not only have lots of important political movements happened on Twitter, from the Arab Spring to the Black Lives Matter movement, but it’s a great place for charity fundraisers and other important IRL work that needs a place where people can talk to each other remotely.

TOLKIEN TUESDAY: Melkor and the Theft of the Silmarils
Hello Rebels, and welcome back to my life.
It’s Tolkien Tuesday, the day we talk about J.R.R. Tolkien, the Lord of the Rings, the Hobbit, and any exciting real-life happenings concerning the fictional world of Middle-earth.
Today we’re going to continue the story we were telling about the creation of Middle-earth, as covered in the Silmarillion, and with a specific focus on Melkor—although this is the last video where we’ll be calling him that.

Have I Been Wrong About Writer’s Block? (WRITER WEDNESDAY)
Hello Rebels, and welcome back to my life.
It’s Writer Wednesday, the day I talk about what I’m writing and hopefully inspire you to keep going with whatever you’re writing.
I have been having a problem with my writing recently. If you’re a regular viewer of my other YouTube channel VlogaNovel, or if you tune in to the live stream over on Twitch, you will have noticed that I haven’t been quite as productive as normal.

#WheresRey, Sexism and Feminism in Film
Hello Rebels, and welcome back to my life.
If something appears to be wrong with me—it is! I’m sick, so please pardon the deepness of my voice, my dampened enthusiasm and my inability to speak quite as quickly as I normally would.
Although I’m sure many of you will view those as vast improvements.

Ancient Cultures Didn’t See Blue (???)
Hello Rebels, and welcome back to my life.
Researching today’s video is the most fun I’ve had in a while, and it’s THE FREAKING WEIRDEST THING I’ve ever talked about in a video.
