Who Is the Killer of the World?
Who Is the Killer of the World? The world is a beautiful place filled with mountains, rivers, forests, oceans, animals, and billions of human beings. Nature provides everything needed for life: clean air, fresh water, food, and shelter. However, today the world is facing serious problems such as pollution, war, climate change, hunger, violence, and destruction of natural resources. Many people ask an important question: “Who is the killer of the world?” The answer is simple but painful. Humans themselves are becoming the biggest killers of the world through greed, selfishness, hatred, and carelessness.

How Beijing Shapes Global Sanctions
China’s Strategic Veto: How Beijing Shapes Global Sanctions In the complex arena of international diplomacy, few tools carry as much weight as economic sanctions. They are designed to pressure governments, deter aggression, and enforce global norms without resorting to military force. Yet, the effectiveness of sanctions often depends not only on intent but on consensus—particularly within the United Nations Security Council. Here, one country’s decision can shift the entire outcome, and China has increasingly used its position to influence that balance.

I’m Sorry… It Got Worse: A Hilarious Apology That Spirals Completely Out of Control
I’d like to begin by saying I’m sorry. Not a casual sorry. Not a “whoops, my bad” tossed over the shoulder while walking away. I mean a sincere, sit-down, make-eye-contact, possibly-bring-snacks kind of apology. The kind that suggests I am fully aware something has gone terribly wrong… even if I am only just now understanding exactly how wrong.

All Tomorrows Parties. Content Warning.
Introduction This morning I was in a dark place and wanted to write about it, but I always feel that if I write something like that it is wrong. To combat this I look for positive things to share with people and to try and generally be uplifting for myself and all my friends.

The Old Man at the Bus Stop
It was raining that evening. The kind of rain that makes everything feel heavier—your clothes, your thoughts, your mood. Sara stood under a small bus stop shelter, hugging her bag tightly as cold wind brushed past her. It had been a long, frustrating day. Nothing had gone right. Work pressure, unanswered messages, and a constant feeling that she was falling behind in life.

I Keep Venmo Requesting My Dead Dad $1
written by WIKI. I didn’t mean to start a ritual. I was just hungry. It was 1:12 a.m. and I was splitting a cold pizza with my roommate. I opened Venmo, typed “D” on autopilot, and there he was. David Marcus. Dad. Same lake photo from 2019, holding a bass that was definitely too small to post about. I tapped his name, sent $1, and Venmo gave me that little red error: This user can’t receive payments.

Your Life Can Be Good. Content Warning.
Introduction Over the last couple of weeks, I have been feeling down, exacerbated by my slight ADHD/Bipolar/Autistic traits that are part of my make-up. I have not seen anyone about these because generally I can deal with them though at times there is a mental fight to assert my good side over my down side.
