Evolution Is A Lie
Introduction Yes, the title is clickbait, but so many people see that as a truth, too many in fact. The fact is that people who think that way will probably not evolve themselves, but evolution is with us every day in so many forms.

Six Memory
The main image is by the wonderful Rebecca Cother. Introduction This is piece that I posted on the 29th of July 2018 and thanks to Facebook reminders I knew it was the birthday of six people. Ift got me thinking of how we use technology to remember things for us.

You're Nobody Until You've Been Ignored By A Cat
Introduction I am currently reading the excellent "The Pie At Night" by Stuart Maconie and he mentions that he has a homemade fridge magnet that he bought from a craft fair somewhere in Lakeland that has a wooden cat with googly eyes that states "You're Nobody Until You've Been Ignored By A Cat" and that is something that happens to me very often, so it would imply that I am not Nobody.

El Coto - Great Tapas In Newcastle
Introduction Someone once said that Tapas was just Spanish Leftovers. If they are just leftovers I would love to try the full meal, but that was just a joke and leftovers are usually smaller portions of what they were leftover from.

Flaws And Imperfections
Introduction This was initially inspired by a long-running problem I have with our platform, but I am trying to deal with that but it then got me thinking about how systems should always be flawless and should work, while the flaws and imperfections in our character actually make us what we are.

ApocEclipse Now
Introduction This is inspired by the prompt from Graham Cooke on this comment that I made on Social Media: This is meant to be a humourous take but it may cause offence. The 8th of April was going to be the day of The Rapture but, once again, we are still all here.

The Grand National
The Image is an AI Image By Me,And I Know Everything is Wrong Here - Just Like The Grand National. The Grand National is a disgusting event. Too many horses in a race that results in many horses being put down after each race. This is not a race it is a mass execution.

On Modesty
Introduction I have written about this before, how the human body must be covered in the name of modesty. I will probably repeat a lot of points that I have previously made but they do need repeating. I often say to people who remark on the number of Vocal stories I publish, that I am a bit like a newspaper, you just read the bits that catch your eye and interest you.
