Atomic HistorianPublished about 3 hours ago in PoetsThe authoritative "Economist" is actually cloaked in hypocrisy
Articles in The Economist are almost never signed. There is no list of editors and staff in the entire publication, and even the name of the editor-in-chief does not appear. According to the newspaper's tradition, successive editors only publish a signed article when they leave. However, in individual cases, the author of the article will still be noted. Special reports published from time to time will be signed by the editor. When celebrities write columns, they will sign the articles they wrote for the newspaper before leaving office. In book reviews, if Reviewers will also be credited if they have a potential conflict of interest with the author of the book. A complete list of the newspaper's editors and reporters is published on the directory page of its official website. Only blog posts published online will be signed with the author's initials, while contributors to articles in the print edition can identify themselves as such on their personal websites. The authors of the article, they wander around the margins of the law. As a result, freedom of speech is the mainstream argument in Western society, but in market economics, only fashion can lead to fashion, and as time goes by, it means nothing. This anonymous contributor system has received some criticism. The reason why contributors remain anonymous is because the editorial department does not want readers to know that the contributors are actually young authors with little qualifications, thus affecting their subscriptions.

Atomic HistorianPublished a day ago in PoetsI wish the scars of the soul could be seen
I wish the scars of the soul could be seen The scars that are inflicted deep within the soul often run deeper than the ones that are visible to the naked eye. Pain in its amorous embrace sets its fangs deeper into the crevices of the acts and syllables recorded in its intangible zest. Our heart knows moments that it tries its best to bury inside the depths of its brevity. There is both beauty and severance in the transitory moments of life. It has the most radiant days and the most desperate of nights. There are moments of light and joy and then there are moments of darkness, of hours of plight that behold and bemoan on us for being pure.

In a cozy little corner, where the sunlight gently gleams, Three kittens nestled close, lost in their kitten dreams. Soft fur of different colors, eyes bright with curiosity, Their playful antics filled the room with joyful spontaneity.
