Dalia Dippolito : Devil in Distress
This is one of those stories that will make your skin crawl. As someone who’s been studying psychology and human behaviour for over 2 decades, I can tell you that this particular person (Dalia Dippolito) is a rare breed, and we can all be thankful for that. Unfortunately for us, these people do exist. What’s even more unfortunate for all of humanity, these types of people are on the rise.

Humanity is Ancient
Everything I was taught in school is wrong, well almost everything. Science is an ever expanding universe filled with fascinating things to uncover and the most fascinating things for me personally are the discoveries we make about our ancient ancestors.

Vocal : Constructive Criticism
I’ll admit, I joined Vocal on a whim, to chase a fleeting illusion of potentially making some money off a challenge. Nobody even read my story. I have no audience of my own, not yet anyways, so I wasn’t expecting 2 million reads a day, but it would have been nice if someone actually took a minute and read my blurb.
