Businesswoman Chapter 14
The offices of the Delaware Auxiliary of Waste Control looked shabby but well put together. The old equipment mixed with the older stuff and never quite gelled and piles of paper stacked like mountains around the place.

Lyra the Princess
In Lyra's world, going to school felt like a curse. For her, it was so dull and painful, “as if she had lost her entire life just by spending a few hours there.” She had no friends at school; she came alone and left alone. Though there was always a crowd of girls around her, they only spoke to her to mock her or tease her. She sat in the corner of the classroom, the one with the only window in the room. That corner was where all the muddy and dirty footprints accumulated, the dirtiest and most soil-covered part of the room. Lyra cleaned that spot every day, but by the next day, there was even more dirt and mud for her to clean. It was the only spot in the room "that needed to be cleaned daily."

Why, in the wake of California wildfires, DEI has turned into a scapegoat
Making Tragedy Political Some conservatives took advantage of the threat posed by wildfires in Southern California, which destroyed thousands of houses, burned at least 20,000 acres, and forced 160,000 people to evacuate. Robby Starbuck, a far-right activist, called DEI "deadly" and said it made the devastation from the fire worse. Co-signing this myth was the affluent South African businessman Elon Musk, who said that "DEI means people DIE." Despite the fact that Los Angeles is currently experiencing some of the most devastating fires in its history, these divisive remarks seek to present DEI as a public threat rather than an attempt to level the playing field.

It Eats the Light
In spite of the tired she could feel deep in her bones, sleep would not come. Klara lay on a rolled-out sleeping bag on the floor, staring at the ceiling for what felt like hours, wondering if she was still awake or just dreaming that she could not sleep. The latter was worse than no sleep at all. It happened sometimes, more frequently in the last six months. She would lay there, looking at the different shades of blue created by the mix of moonlight and darkness, feeling like she was floating through the depths of the ocean, and wonder whether she was asleep and dreaming or dreaming of sleep.

GRAVITY OF ALANA. AI-Generated.
CHAPTER ONE I jolted awake to the blaring sound of my alarm, my body protesting as if I’d only just closed my eyes. Blinking against the faint morning light, I took in the familiar yet still strange surroundings. This place didn’t quite feel like home yet. Groaning, I buried my head under the pillow, clinging to the last scraps of sleep. After a few moments, I forced myself to sit up, rubbing the haze from my eyes, and dragged my feet across the cool wooden floor toward the bathroom.
