- My mind and me
Alone but not alone, the lights are on, but is there anyone home? My screams are loud but not loud enough to be heard. Who can I trust? Me. Who loves me? Me. Scared of disappointment, scared to be hurt, so I'll take my feelings and bury them in the dirt. I don't need anyone, all I need is me. I'll hug myself tight and won't let me go, I'll love myself better than anyone else ever could.

They say the best vampires don't bleed their victims dry, but give them the strength so that they can bounce back only to be fed on again. I spared Pam, and I may feast off of her profits for years to come. I let Pam win. Haha, oh. I was not motivated by compassion. I have no compassion. Make sure you got that. Not motivated by compassion.

Isn't love a funny thing? It makes you worry and care more that you ever thought you could. It makes you jealous over things that really shouldn't matter. It shows you the capacity of love you can truly have for someone. They say when you know you know, right? Well that's true, you really do know. When they feel like home, your safe space, the one person you want to tell everything to, you know. Love is crazy.

My baby never fret none about what my hands and my body done. If the Lord don't forgive me, I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me. When I was kissing on my baby, and she put her love down soft and sweet, in the low candle light I was free - Heaven and Hell were words to me.

I was in the hospital with her those last moments, and they were truly horrifying, full of nonsensical screams and cries. But there was this moment, this one instant of strange calm, where she looked in my direction and said, "I see you." That's the last thing she said to me. "I see you." Not a statement of judgment or disappointment, just acceptance and the simple recognition of another person in a room. "Hello, there. You are a person and I see you."

I know what's gonna happen here, alright? We're gonna end up partnering up with them, you're gonna end up on the altar, I'm gonna be looking you in the eyes and they're gonna sacrifice you. And I don't want that! Alright?!

- Maybe relax and try again later
Hey you! Are you typing non stop but still stuck on your WPM? Why not stop for a while and take a walk outside? Scientific studies show that the human brain is super elastic. When you practice typing, your brain works hard on processing all kinds of information, then if you take a rest, it will have the chance to sort out and digest previous experiences, therefore rewire and improve itself. It's kinda like a spring, you stretch it, and relax it. Over stretching only does more harm than good.

- Pain
Whatever pain you think you are in right now cannot begin to compare to the peace that will one day come over you. It cannot begin to compare to the joy that you will one day know. You will fall in love with life again, and it will be better than it was before, because you will become a different person. You will become someone who is more capable of appreciating what matters, who will not be as reckless with their choices, who can no longer be so easily swayed or mindlessly trusting.

I DON'T TALK TRASH; I TALK SMACK. THEY'RE TOTALLY DIFFERENT. TRASH TALK IS HYPOTHETICAL LIKE YOUR MOM IS SO FAT SHE CAN EAT THE INTERNET. BUT SMACK TALK IS HAPPENING LIKE RIGHT NOW. LIKE: YOU'RE UGLY, AND I KNOW IT FOR A FACT 'CAUSE I GOT THE EVIDENCE RIGHT THERE.

Every time we eat, we have the power to radically transform the world we live in and simultaneously contribute to addressing many of the most pressing issues that our species currently faces: climate change, infectious disease, chronic disease, human exploitation and, of course, non-human exploitation. Every single day, our choices can help alleviate all of these problems or they can perpetuate them.

In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun.

The man who believes that the secrets of the world are forever hidden lives in mystery and fear. Superstition will drag him down. The rain will erode the deeds of his life. But that man who sets himself the task of singling out the thread of order from the tapestry will by the decision alone have taken charge of the world and it is only by such taking charge that he will effect a way to dictate the terms of his own fate.

- All Things End
When people say that something is forever, either way, it ends. And all things end. All that we intend is scrawled in sand. Or slips right through our hands. And just knowing that everything will end should not change our plans when we begin again.

Even a good person can be swept up with the sentiments of a crowd and come to hold perverse beliefs. You can destroy those who speak the truth, but you cannot destroy the truth itself.

That day, she was amazed to discover that when he was saying "As you wish," what he meant was, "I love you." And even more amazing was the day she realized she truly loved him back.

- Astronants
The word "astronaut" derives from the Greek words meaning "star" and "sailor." These men and women - Alan Shephard, John Glenn, Jr., Sally Ride, to name a few - conjure up images of bravery and adventure. They are modern heroes, helping humanity reach for the stars. When the space program began in 1959, there were only seven such people in the entire country. They all were then - or had been in the past - in the armed forces.

World War II, Arnolone Syndrome, SOA, AIDS, Nuclear Weapons, the Mt. Hio eruption. All of these once existed and were feared just as much as devils with their names. But I'm the only one who remembers those names now... The sixth sense humans used to have. The light of a certain star that would break children's minds. Four possible fates besides death at the end of life. They've all ceased to exist, and I can't recall them yet even now I remember the sight of their devils fighting Chainsaw Man.

I can. And there's your first marvel, that I can. You have made your magic now, for now I do think I see some shred of goodness in John Proctor. Not enough to weave a banner with, but white enough to keep it from such dogs. Give them no tear! Tears pleasure them! Show honor now, show a stony heart and sink them with it!

It is ironic that we believe that empathy and complex emotions only really exist in humans but we then fail to empathize with the animals who suffer at our hands.
