More Than Virtual Reality, X: Ascension Over Transhumanism
Within our society right now is the possibility for both worlds to be explored, yet one idea is promoted more and accessed easier by the way we have structured our society. Allowing our society to be dictated by corporations and governments who have the propensity to accumulate profits over the well-being of their fellow human race, has created a dystopian system. This system operates under a completely objective and reductionist viewpoint of the world. That is, the system believes we are nothing but matter, that can do nothing greater unless we invent a machine that can do it for us.

Making Sense of Love in John Donne's Poetry
Rich in his appraisal of both love’s sanctity and its erotic steaminess, John Donne was a poet who helped expand society’s notion of where and how the tenderness of love could be harnessed metaphysically.

This ingenious tool can show you exactly where your old plastic bottle ends up in the ocean.
When a freak storm overturned a cargo ship, one of the 62 containers contained 5 million pieces of Lego. Twenty-five years later, you can still find washing Lego washing up on the beach: Lego plastic flippers, Lego scuba gear, Lego spears, and tiny Lego lifejackets. Yellow smiling Lego heads bob in rock pools. You may find blue plastic octopuses amongst the slimy seaweed, if you are lucky.
