On this episode of WebOddities, the hosts transcend the limits of the singular mind and discover what it truly means to make friends. Friendship is Magic, as they say, and Tulpamancy is here to provide. And then F, Marry, Kill becomes horribly relevant and— oh dear lord, what are you doing with that knife Twilight Spark?? CW: Abuse, Sexual Assault, and Potentially disturbing fetishes (Recorded on Oct. 10, 2019)

a song from the tulpa episode of WebOddities.

“Hello Breakers, it’s Jalen again. In our last episode, we took a look at the Active Citizen Continuum. The last stage of the continuum is to become an Active Citizen, where community becomes a priority in values and life choices. I hope to demystify this stage by telling you what it means to me. The way I see it, Active Citizenship is represented as a continuum because it doesn’t necessarily have an end. Once you reach this final stage, you have only reached an end in thought but not in action. When I say end in thought, I mean that you have finally come to a point of understanding where community has become a priority in your values and life choices. The thing is, even if you do, the actions you take on a daily basis may not be representative of this. I believe it’s an on-going process where your ability or availability to live out your values changes; suffering from burnout is very real. The actions people take to support their community is limited to their capacity. Your Active Citizenship has to meet you where you’re at. I hope to help you discover the path best suited for you. Until then, catch ya next time!”

“Hello Breakers, it’s Jalen again. Today’s episode, I want to cover the core framework of Active Citizenship. To understand Alternative Breaks, we must first understand the Active Citizen Continuum. It may be difficult to wrap your mind around at first, but for now I just want to teach the simple concept that Active Citizenship is an on-going process. Each of the four citizenship stages has their own level of intention with their engagement.  This process is unique for everyone and so too is the reason a person finds themselves at one of these particular stages. Everyone in a community engages with it in some way regardless of their intent. As you become more thoughtful with the way you interact with your community, you progress in your citizenship. It is important to understand that there isn’t just one act or achievement that makes you an active citizen. It isn’t something you can obtain and just be done with. It is a state of mind you have and a way of being that you nurture. As we continue on our journey together, we’ll dive deeper into how to manage your Active Citizenship. Thanks—catch ya next time.”

“Hello Breakers, and welcome to our first virtual Alternative Breaks semester. My name is Jalen and I’ll be your host. It is my pleasure to welcome back the program and although the delivery has changed, our vision has not--which is to prepare students for lives of Active Citizenship. Traditionally, we would offer service learning trips but of course, the global pandemic won’t allow us to. Regardless, we will continue to shape our vision by the education of Active Citizenship and sustainable service. We hope to have some engaging activities for you all too, such as thought provoking discussions and fun challenges for you to complete in the comfort of your home. No matter the circumstance or limitations we face, our program’s vision moves us forward. In spite of being a part, we will aim to build community to create the change we seek. So, let’s continue growing together and chasing that vision. Thanks—catch ya next time.”

On this trip to Little Wood Tennessee, we meet a collection of misfits and weirdos that come together to solve the mystery of a museum haunted by a hay monster.
