- America's Bitter Pill: “all of us were walking around with PTSD”
Public relations people and government administrators comparing their stress to that of soldiers stopping bullets or stepping on improvised explosive devices was more than an over-the-top expression of self-importance and self-pity. It was emblematic of their amazing ability to be indignant, to assume the role of the victims when it was their own failure to govern that had fortified and emboldened the opposition.

- Noctilucent Clouds
Noctilucent clouds, or night shining clouds, are tenuous cloud-like phenomena in the upper atmosphere of Earth. When viewed from space, they are called polar mesospheric clouds (PMCs), detectable as a diffuse scattering layer of water ice crystals near the summer polar mesopause. They consist of ice crystals and from the ground are only visible during astronomical twilight.

- Borderline
People think they know Borderline but I don't understand and it's mine. Dancing between living and triggers leads to a decline. One minute my brain works fine. The next it's splitting time. Battling reality and my mind's own design. I just want to feel divine. Can I get a redesign? Or is it a part of me, like my spine? They say through work it will go benign. I'm so tired of walking the Borderline.

- Thoughts from an Enthusiast
One of the most satisfying things about this site is the feeling you get when your fingers fly across the keys as if they're moving on their own. It is as though your brain bypasses your arms and taps directly into your fingertips. When it sounds like you're fake typing, but the words forming on the page make sense!

- Unbreakable Mindset
The man who takes more pride in the steps to attain the result than the result itself cannot be stopped. The work truly instills the worth... the only thing that gives you confidence is the work you put in. Your self-worth is directly correlated to your self-investment.

- don't judge a book by its cover
You shouldn't judge a book like its cover. It's just like you shouldn't judge people by their looks. Most of the people knows this but they still do this. This is not good! There are reasons why you shouldn't do it. Reason 1: What if the person you're judging is someone very important? Reason 2: You'll hurt their feelings. Reason 3: You'll be very impolite and that is NOT fine! There are very many other reasons why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover but I can't think of anymore of those.

He had seen plenty of boys at St Edmund's trying to push their limits like that - the problem was, some limits weren't fences. Sometimes they were edges; with nothing on the other side.

He wished they would invite him, just once. He wished he wasn't always the one left out, he wished he knew how it felt to have a friend as close as James. More than ever, he wanted someone to talk to.

Sorry isn't good enough. Your guilt isn't good enough. I need you to feel it too. I trusted you. I trusted you with every last secret, I offered you every piece of me. What else have I got now? I could kill you. I could bash your teeth in so you choke on them, I could wrap my hands around your throat and squeeze, I could rip you to pieces, I could, I could, I could kiss you, you fucking bastard.

- Crying doesn't help
Well, this story happens a long time ago when I was with my mother in the nail shop. Well, this girl and her mother walked in as well. The mother said to just keep her nails simple. But the girl said that she wants it fussy. Although she knows that her mother is persistent, she still keeps trying to say that she wants it fussy. Then she cried. Well, that doesn't stop her mother from making it simple. So crying doesn't help to do anything. So you better not cry.

- Pretty in the inside
So, you might not be pretty on the outside but you have to be pretty in the inside! What I mean by pretty in the inside is that you have to be kind-hearted. I mean you don't have to be pretty in the inside but you'll make wrong decisions. And you might hurt someone's feelings. And I'm pretty sure that you don't want to get someone hurt right? You'll will at least get caught once or twice as well.

- Beatrice Letters Excerpt
I will love you as misfortune loves orphans, as fire loves innocence and as justice loves to sit and watch while everything goes wrong. I will love as a battlefield loves young men and as peppermints love your allergies, and I will love as the banana peel loves the shoe of a man who was just struck by a shingle falling off a house.
It is ME!
- Day 5
I think I am cursed. Every time I sit at this desk, and work to help people through the stress of an emergency, things go wrong. Someone forgets how to drive without hitting other cars. Some building decides that it is time to catch fire. I sit at this desk for hours upon hours, days upon days, waiting for the next big things to come hurdling my way. I think I am cursed, or maybe I sit at the desk far too much.

Don't try to make yourself remember, darling. Don't look for me, I'm just a story you've been told. So let's pretend a little longer. Cause when we're gone, everything goes on.

- Meshuggah - Bleed
Beams of fire sweep through my head, thrusts of pain increasingly engaged. Sensory receptors succumb, I'm no one now, only agony. My crimson liquid so frantically spilled, the ruby fluid of life unleashed.

- Note for Sam
Sam, the first night at BED when you left, Ron made out with two girls and put his head between a cocktail waitress's breasts. He also was grinding with multiple fat women. When you left crying at Klutch, Ron was holding hands and dancing with a female and took down her number. Multiple people in the house know, therefore you should know the truth.

- Jobs jobs jobs
Look, John's last-minute economic plan does nothing to tackle the number one job facing the middle class, and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three letter word: jobs. J-O-B-S, jobs.

- Chat language
For those who don't know what chat language is, it's basically like 'lol' for Laugh Out Loud or 'nvm' for NeVer Mind or never mind. So why do you use chat language? Well, it's simple, you're either lazy and doesn't want to type or you just like how chat language works. You still shouldn't use chat language, real life or on your chatting app. People might not understand what it is.

- Don't stop trying!
Well, this happened to me for like 6 times but when I got my goal, I stopped trying and then, when I try it again like 3 months later, I have to restart. Well, once I accomplished to make a split but then I stopped trying and a few years later, well, I can't do a split any longer. So this is just like your typing skills, if you stopped trying to type, your typing will get worse. You will lose most of your muscle memory. So you better keep typing until the end.

Did you know that the wind won't make a sound even if they go like the speed of light if nothing is blocking it? Wind only make sounds when something is blocking it.
