Yes, but What Does the Toilet Think?
Yes, but What Does the Toilet Think? It seems to me that consciousness must arise out of an organism, so I might suppose a flower to possess some level of conscious awareness in that it reacts to its environment.

The Enigmatic Monkey Village of the United States
*** In the picturesque landscape of Silver Springs, Florida, an extraordinary tale unfolds—a story of unexpected settlers finding refuge in a land far from their native habitat. This narrative traces back to the 1930s when a Hollywood producer sought to recreate the lush jungles of Tarzan on screen. To lend authenticity to the film set, a troupe of rhesus monkeys was imported from India. Little did anyone anticipate that these primates would find a permanent home in the United States.

When it comes to music, I like to colour my world. I don't listen to one genre; my tastes vary widely. There is a wide world of music and a massive variety of styles and tastes, yet I come from a background where the tradition is you can't listen to several styles at once.

The Commercialization of Mental Health and the Impact of Blue Monday
I'm starting to empathize with January lately. It constantly receives negative attention, doesn't it? It's burdened with gloominess, darkness, and cold, and everyone's financially strained due to Christmas. But is it fair to blame January for all of this? Did it willingly position itself right after the annual feast of overindulgence, when people go wild with mulled wine and think it’s okay to survive on mince pies and brandy butter for 12 consecutive days? Meanwhile, January is mainly associated with abstinence and the infamous Blue Monday, considered the most depressing day of the year, landing on the third Monday of the month.

Hey Vocal Media crowd, I haven't been lurking around here for ages, but guess what? I've already made myself at home, throwing my words out into the void. Let's cut to the chase: 2023 was a nightmare, not just on Vocal, but in this absurd game called life. I've been skulking in the shadows, haunted by the fear of judgment, too chicken to embrace what I'm passionate about. And let's not even start on the flock of headless hens around me, always ready to peck away at my spirit.
