JUST STOP, OKAY? IT HURTS A LOT!
We all have been in a situation where we can't handle it anymore. We humans, can’t handle pain anymore. Some people don't know how much pain we have in our lives. In our hearts. In our minds. You just want to keep hurting people with words. You don't realize the pain you are causing other people. Please stop with this at once! You, yes you, you are no one to be judging people how to live their life. Or how to dress. You are nobody to judge. Most of us like to say hateful comments not knowing if they do or not hurt the person receiving it. Let me just ask you one question, why would you even say words like this to another person? You don't know how they are living their life. You don't know if they are struggling in life. You don’t know if they have a proper meal to eat. You don’t know if they have enough food of water to survive. You judge on the outside. You never see a person on the inside. Whenever you see this you are probably saying to yourself in your mind “I wouldn’t want to be with that person because he looks poor” What if they are struggling with financial problems? No! you just want to judge. You are just hurting them instead of trying to help them. Trying to make them feel better. Like they do belong here. You don't know how they are getting treated at home.

Scrolling Through Your Brain and Accidentally Liking It
If I took the smartphone right out of your hand today and never gave it back to you until the day before you died, would you still be able to charge it or would it be so outdated that no one would know how to turn it on anymore? (Just kidding)

In Defense of the Übermensch
First off, the name is pronounced Nietzsche (as in “KNEE-CHA”); not “NITCH”, or “NEETCH”, or “KNEE-CHEE”. However, the pronunciation of this 19th Century German philosopher’s name doesn’t change the fact that he is one of the most referenced philosophers in pop culture. Such references range from the famous Richard Strauss composition "Also Sprach Zarathustra" (also known as the opening theme of Stanley Kubrik's 2001: A Space Odyssey or Elvis Presley's entrance cue during his "Las Vegas Jumpsuit Era"), the opening of the 1982 fantasy film Conan the Barbarian with his famous quote “That which does not kill us makes us stronger.”, to the Black Sabbath 2013 song God is Dead?. For those who know nothing of the man, Frederich Nietzsche was a philosopher who wrote and lectured in the latter half of the 1800’s, donned a walrus mustache, and believed that everything in this life is meaningless. In order to give meaning to life, we must overpower everyone else and obtain our wants and desires. To do so, makes you an “übermensch” (or superman).

Time
Time is interchangeable. From the beginning of time to now there hasn't been a way to manipulate it. Of course there's movies like “back to the future” & books like "Erased" that has various depictions of time & concepts like such are used to fill & sulk in knowledge & experience.

Out of Labels
Have you been wanting to change some of your body parts? If so, you're not alone! Mind should be your best asset. How you portray yourself is very important. Being confident is a different level of beauty that one has. Body image brought issues on how you depict, feel and conceit your body. How can you say a woman is sexy? Based on her size, weight, and body posture? Body imagery tends to lose one's self-esteem. This is the toughest aftermath that most women suffered from. Mostly, women who were bullied during their childhood days had the hardships gaining confidence. Nowadays, a lot of dietary supplements have been known due to the increasing level of consumers. But, why these people still purchasing them, although they did not know if that would be effective?

Seven ways to support your local artists
As you're all no doubt aware, the coronavirus pandemic has had a far reaching socio-economic impact on our economy, no more so than our artists and entertainers. In these past two weeks, we've lost 150 million dollars. I'll give you a moment to take that in. As teaching artist and a sole trader myself, I myself have suffered a significant financial loss, but I still have my drama facilitator job with the education department to keep me afloat. However, a lot of artists, and most artists, aren't that fortunate. Consequently, I've created this article to raise awareness on how you, reading this, can help support us; your local artists. Most of these examples will be Australia/Brisbane based, as that's where I'm located, but I'm sure you can find examples from wherever you are in the world to go in its place.
