When The Stars Faded
The stars twinkled brightly as I stepped out of my door. The weather was warm, and there were no clouds in the sky. Tonight, I smiled as I breathed in the fresh air that nighttime brought with it.

Greenbacks to Go
I was in the mood for pie, when I realized I had no dough to buy or make it. Nevertheless, I made my way to Midge's, a little joint just under the L off 86th street. It was starting to turn into a rainy day, and the breakfast crowd had all but cleared out. A booth at the end had an ambiance that meshed with mine. It called out to me for a seat, and I took it up on its offer, a purposeful change from the lonely counters I was used to.

132 Irritation
Pearls are from irritation. Ask any oyster. Or when any guest outlasted their welcome. And I'm irritated. The irony is that while I use this concentric-layered aragonite and calcite to sequester my irritation, it just happens to be on the end of a pistol. To settle my discontent that began small as a grain. That milky white irony is now firmly within my grasp: purposeful, 45-calibred, and well-aimed. It is an iron-clad clasp that is clammy and sweaty.

Brilliant Shell
Please note that this should be May 10th, 131/366 which I've put at the end of this but not at the beginning. My head is not in the game. I blame Rachel Deeming.

Insane Conspiracy Theories That Turned Out to be True
The Internet age with social media spreading information fast and wide become the platform of what could be called the boom period of conspiracy theories. Yet what might actually be the truth is usually misleading. It is drowned underneath a hill of lies. So, before you fall down the rabbit hole, let's debunk a few myths: Indeed, Micheal Jackson, Elvis Presley and Tupac are deceased. Wayfair also does not have anything to do with human trafficking and the belief that lizard people run the world is baseless. Still, there are some conspiracy theories with the truth as an outcome, and they are the most mind-boggling of all.

Dr Psycho
Some say I've got a God complex. That I'm narcissistic. I am better than a lot of other people. Egotistical, maybe, but true. I'm the best in my field. Things that bother other people don't bother me. Blood for instance. OK, not many surgeons mind that, so not the best example.

Filaments
Prologue I had an idea, one word, either Threads or Filaments that carry a threat. Threatening Threads seemed too alliterative and the word always makes me think of the very frightening eponymous 1984 Nuclear Fallout film.

When the commoners fight back
The snarl I made was feral as I pounced on the weakened sheriff, knocking him flat on his back, my dagger poised on his chest, right above his heart. "You know that saying... An eye for an eye?" My lips turned up into a sneer, "Well, what about a heart for a heart~" The sheriff's eyes widened and he winced as I pushed on the blade harder. "I didn't hit his heart though!!" He pleaded, trying to move his stunned arms and legs. I leaned in dangerously close, my canines glinted in the thin rays of light seeping through his window, and my voice was low, hate-filled. "No... but you sure as hell destroyed mine-" I pushed my dagger into his skin, his screams could be heard for miles as I sliced through him, down and around, one bump, two bumps, curving upwards and around till it connected with the other side. His clothes turned a deep, dark crimson as his blood poured out. I dropped my dagger and dug my fingers into the deep incision I made, pulling the entire chunk off in one pull, earning another set of pain-filled shrieks from the stocky man. I looked down at the wide-open hole in his chest, eyeing the lovely, beating, bloody heart. I turned my focus to the ribcage that kept me from my prize, I reached in, gripping each rib with such delicacy, before snapping them off, one by one, and tossing them to the side. His screams were deafening as my hand slid into his chest, wrapping around the still-beating heart, and with one swift movement..... The heart was in my hands, and the sheriff lay still, blood pooled in his mouth and spilled over the side. I stared at him for a long while before snarling again, "A heart for a heart~"

What Happens If You Open Pandora's Box
Moreover, they concentrate on the exploration of human psychology and the investigation of possible outcomes of inner strength or weakness. However, the myths of Pandora and Eve even though they are very different in all ways have not lost their appeal over the ages and present interesting stories about the mistakes of mankind and their temptation by God.
