Don't try and sell books to try and rub it in someone else's face.

Don't try to launch into a career as a writer if you're not ready to work at what you love.

"A RUSSIAN tank officer who was captured after one month fighting in Ukraine was found to have been filming a home movie about the invasion on his mobile phone"

"The footage, which reveals him talking about comrades being turned into ‘scraps of meat’ and ‘mince’, offers astonishing insight into Moscow’s spluttering invasion as his gun jams, vehicle explodes and a raid on a Ukrainian military base goes wrong."

She’s done nothing all day and she’s proud.

On the night of May 30/31, the Earth crosses the orbit of comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann, also known as SW3. The comet itself will not be anywhere near the vicinity of the Earth but debris from a massive fragmentation event in 1995 may be there to light up our skies with meteors. SW3 will reach this point in August but meteor watchers are hopeful that the fragmentation event in 1995 sent debris ahead of the comet to be encountered by the Earth in May.

We’ve done the same stupid thing with the amount of melanin in a person’s skin. No one has control over that, it means nothing, and all humans are of the same species regardless, yet it’s been used as a means to separate humans forever. Governments and religions both try to convince us that people who don’t look like us aren’t equal human beings.

I know I have other things to concern me, but: Mediocre white men will be the death of us all.
