Your Mental Health Is Important
Preston Buszka Editor-in-Chief Preston's Perspective: Your Mental Health Is Important Who would have thought? It is true, though. For most, college can be a fun and exciting experience. For others, it is an immense struggle, whether it be academically, socially, or personally. We have reached a time where it is no longer acceptable to stigmatize people with disabilities, mental or physical. I’m not familiar with anyone that “chose” to have ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder), nor chose to be paralyzed, for example.

I’m sure being the Kettering nerds that you are, many of you have heard of Reddit. It’s a wonderful place filled with “subreddits” for whatever your heart desires. Most importantly, it is the absolue goto for memes, and I know you like a good meme.
“I just want to say one word with you. Just one word. Plastics.” In the movie, The Graduate, Mr. McQuire says this quote and speaks of the “great future” for plastics. While today, many people may have mixed feelings on the synthetic material, it’s without a doubt that plastics have changed the course of our society. However, with the current state of the planet's climate, it goes without saying that there's always a slight sense of guilt that is felt when throwing something plastic away in the trash bin when there’s not a recycling bin around. And then there are those trash bags, which we throw into a cupboard, it sits for a year, and then it too goes into the trash, probably.
Kickstarter. The word used to mean something Indie was shooting for seed money on the internet. Nowadays, all it does is leave a bad taste in the mouths of many gamers, including myself. Let’s talk about Phoenix Point.
Now those of you that have browsed this wonderful place before may know that an r/kettering subreddit exists, and it’s been dead for a really long time. Well, it’s back! All the Kettering memes you could ever ask for in one place. Continued on Page 4
And this is why you should use reusable bags or paper ones. However, if you choose to use the plastic bags still, you may do it with a little less guilt. Plastic Roads. Now, while that may sound slightly anticlimactic, it’s still something rather interesting. Dow Chemical Corporation in Midland, MI created a formula that uses recycled plastic bags as part of the materials needed for asphalt. Known as Polymer Modified Asphalt Roads (PMA), and according to Dow’s website, PMAs use, specifically, recycled linear lowdensity polyethylene (LLDPE) plastic. From some Photo Courtesy of reddit.com

Phoenix point is an upcoming turn-based strategy game under development by Bulgaria-based independent developer Snapshot Games for release in December 2019. The game is supposed to be a spiritual successor to X-COM, a game originally created by Snapshot Games’ Julian Gollop during the 1990s. The game is pushing innovation in the same way that Sanctum did — it is combining elements of its main genre with those of a first-person shooter. After he’d invested nearly half a million dollars into the game, Gollop launched a campaign on Fig to raise money for development. This effort came to a successful conclusion on July 7, 2017, having raised $765,948. Among the promises made on their campaign included the promise that you would be able to get a key for the game on whatever platform you wanted — Steam, GOG (formerly Good Old Games), etc. Then comes March of this year, and Snapshot Games signs an exclusivity deal with Epic Games for 1 year. Now, I’m not about to say that this is 100% bad, but let’s look at the pros and cons: On the good side, Snapshot Games has more money, which will lead to a game that is no less Continued on Page 3

Roads Made of Recycled Plastic Bags Continued from Front Page of their statistics, PMA roads last longer than regular asphalt roads (although a statistic was not given, but can be assumed that some form of simulation software was used), and the average estimated reduced greenhouse gas pollution from creating the roads is about 30 tons.

Over 100 metric tons of plastic waste were recycled for the roads instead of going to a landfill somewhere.

I hope that Dow and the rest of the country continue to use these roads as they replace old ones throughout the nation. Is it a perfect solution for climate change or helping the environment? No, but it's not supposed to be, and at least its something. If more and more solutions like this

Good Boys (2019): A Review Nicholas Haley Staff Writer Amid giant blockbusters like Avengers: Endgame, Hobbs and Shaw, and The Lion King, it feels a bit refreshing to see a small, down-to-Earth film about growing up and the values given with it. And with this being a Seth Rogen film, you can expect that it has a lot of grown-up material in it. Good Boys stars a trio of tweens whose goal is to get a drone back to their dad’s house so they won’t be grounded from a party. That’s all the details about the plot I’ll talk about, because that’s pretty much the thin plotline of the movie. There are no giant stakes here, only enough to keep the audience laughing during all its raunchy, adult content. Expect a lot of laughs from the audience, because that’s what I got when I went to the Rave Cinema (formally Flint West 14), and there are some pretty funny moments in the movie. The characters themselves are pretty funny at times, and all have unique personalities that separate them while believably portraying them to be a group of friends. They all go through themes of maturity: staying together, moving forward, and most of all, drugs, sex, and heavy topics that go to separation, both internally and externally. Will this be a comedic classic? That depends. To some, it can be nothing more than fun, dirty humor that they can get a kick out of, while to others, this type of humor might put them off a bit, and may seem to be getting old the more they repeat certain jokes and innuendos in a rated-R film. In conclusion, the humor is raunchy and hilarious with the characters mixed in, and you should expect some heavy themes throughout the movie as well. You can easily expect the plot later on whether they go to the party or not, so there’s just not much tension besides it being humorous, which seems to be its main focus. Rating: 8/10

A Little Something Fun HORRORSCOPE I will tell you your future; Zodiac predictions for the next month. Elise Atkinson Staff Writer Hello the five humans and countless non-humans that read Kettering’s own Technician. The stars above and the old ones that live below deep underneath Kettering have whispered to me your future. Listen well and take note. This is staff writer Elise Atkinson and you have a 100% chance of reading this sentence right now. Aquarius The past you is alive only in your memories. The future you is hidden the uncertainty of infinity. The present you is a skin suit piloted by 9,999 bees. Where did the 10,000th bee go? It has left for Des Moines, Iowa and will not be back until October. This month you can look forward to developing a crippling addiction to EDM music. Pisces Kettering is a lot bigger than you think. The mole people of the Under-Kettering have found your missing ID and now worship your visage. They think you are very cute (despite your lack of mole features). I think they are correct! This month look out for suspicious small hooded man-beasts trying to steal you away to be their subterranean overlord. I know it sounds fun being the ruler of a mole people nation a million strong but trust me it gets old pretty quick. The only music they have is Joe Jackson’s 1982 album "Night and Day" and they play it constantly. While "Steppin’ Out" is an absolute banger it begins to drive you insane after the 2,000th listen. Aries There is absolutely nothing wrong with a nice windows-down drive on a summer night. Your lucky direction is north-north-west. Bring a swimsuit. Taurus When will Kettering let me eat the pears? Everyday I walk by those small pear-shaped fruits on the east side of the beach and hunger for their unsatiating unripe flesh. I am Tantalus in Hades starving for that mediocre bounty. Yes, I haven’t asked Kettering if I can eat the pears. But! Every time I begin to succumb to the temptation those ornamental fruit trees bear I feel a shadow of disapproval cast from the CC’s brick and mortar heights. And I especially don’t want to hear another word about them "probably not tasting good" or being "unsanitary." I don’t want to eat them for their taste and I don’t fear the microbial and parasitic beings that call the pear home. Those pears are fertilized by the Kettering soil and nurtured by the Kettering rain. They are the Kettering campus itself and someday I will eat them. On that blessed day my body will break down those Kettering pears and use their very atoms to build my own cells. I will therefore by the transitive property of mathematics become Kettering itself, omnipotent and everlasting. Today I passed the pears once again. They grow ripe in the Kettering sun glowing with a bursting maroon hue. The harvest is coming. The harvest is here. Friends, are you ready?
Gemini Congratulations! The mold growing in your unwashed dishes has grown sentient! The responsibilities of rearing this sentient lifeform now fall unto you! Start saving up for its college tuition! It’s never too early to invest in its 401k!
Ophiuchus Your life is starting to remember more and more a 2004 direct-to-dvd spinoff of a beloved original production. Think Naruto vs Boruto. This month you will engage in wacky hijinks and cliche tropes. The IMDB page of your life is rated 6.7/10 stars.
Cancer Take a moment this month to think of all the people who have loved you, all the people who love you now, and all the people who will love you that you have yet to meet. Everything will be ok. Everything has always been ok. You were my favorite character in Andrew Hussey’s webcomic masterpiece. This month you most definitely get down and get funky with it at a mysterious party at a house along University Ave that you’ve never noticed before. There you will invent a new genre of dance and be crowned High Prophet of the Groove. The next day you will wake up in your bed, the smell of pomegranates and metal heavy in the air. Go forth with Dionysus' favor.
Sagittarius Please try to not unintentionally cause the apocalypse again. Everyone is so tired of having to restart the world. This month you will unintentionally cause the apocalypse again. We are caught in a time loop. Your curiosity has doomed us all. As I currently sit outside at night, my laptop burns my eyes out as the brightness setting makes no visible change to the amount of photons entering my eyeholes. The photons that miss my eyes go towards the stars, and shift the astral plane towards Kettering University. Affecting your horoscopes,
Leo It's sometimes more important to unlearn than it is to learn. Just because things are the way they are doesn’t mean that that is the best way for them to be. Beware of false idols this month. There is only one true idol and her name is Hatsune Miku. Yield A pretty simple sign, if a car is there you stop and if there is no car there you go. I have no idea why anyone (you) would ever (yes you) mess this up (familiarize yourself with Michigan’s legislature §257.649 please). Virgo You do not have the resources to live the hedonistic lifestyle you deserve. You can and should however buy yourself a bouquet of flowers. The most important relationship in your life is your relationship with yourself. It will be the day of your birth soon. If a chick cannot hatch it will die. Your egg tooth is still attached. Crack the shell of the world and be born. Happy birthday. Libra The withstanding of meaningful suffering is strength. The withstanding of meaningless suffering is tragedy. People with this sign have a higher chance than normal of gliding 2.5 feet above the ground. This month you will decompose into dirt and drift away with the wind and rain, your consciousness spread over the entirety of the earth. Huh, you always wanted to travel the world after college. Scorpio Oh what most lovely of months to you my friend! What happiest of days! All Scorpios may receive a high quality hand curated anime girl .png or .jpg of mine. This is an honor I give out most infrequently you lucky, lucky Scorpios. Email my vessel the secret password "I am most definitely a scorpio" to accept this gift.

One can also visit https://my.kettering. edu/page/health-counseling-disability-services-and-student-health-insurance-wellness-center for additional information.
Continued from Front Page Whilst some disabilities may be visible, others are not; however, they all should be treated with respect in the same way. Here’s one: don’t jump to conclusions. Some people may not realize they have a mental condition, or others understand that they do and struggle with it every day. Don’t be quick to jump to conclusions; perhaps get to know people first — understand their life story. But, for some that may be too much for our Tweet length attention span we have in society today. Who knows, you may actually be pleasantly surprised that there is a whole human being with feelings and emotions behind those actions one may claim to be “strange.” Ignorance is not an excuse, people. WAKE UP!

By the way, here’s an interesting factoid: suicide is not a joke. To those that think it is, or otherwise colloquially joke about it: it’s time to stop. Suicide is preventable! All one has to do is act before it’s too late. You are not alone. Confidential help is available for free. One can call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255, or even chat online at https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/chat/, 24 hours a day, all year. Kettering University Students also have 24/7 access to the Student Assistance Program (SAP) Telephonic Counseling, available at 855-774-4700, not to mention our Wellness Center. It is ok to have a disability, physical or mental, or even just a need for a little help. Whilst the word “disability” may have a negative connotation to some, the denotation is the same: a physical or mental condition that limits a person’s movements, senses, or activities. It is ok to have a disability! One cannot change that, and those that cannot get over that fact need to grow up and face reality. I hope everyone can get along, and understand everyone else a little better now. Be respectful, caring, and patient of your peers. And remember, you are not alone, neither disability or otherwise...

Did You Know? Jordan Carley Staff Writer Kettering University was established in 1919 by Albert Sobey, the teacher of a night school. He started the Cooperative Engineering Program in 1924 with only 20 students. In 1926, General Motors became in charge of the establishment where more than 11,000 students were then enrolled in the 1930s. Since then, Kettering University has become one of the most remarkable colleges for engineering and business not only in Michigan, but throughout the country. The university is partnered with over 600 corporations to provide its students with a balance of academics as well as work experience. The institution values respect, integrity, creativity, collaboration, and excellence, 1) Who is Kettering University named after? a) James Kettering b) Charles Kettering c) John Kettering
