Last night's dream was a bit interesting. In one of them I saw a Kirin or giraffe creature that was quite supernatural looking It was just staring at me with these giant bioluminescent eyes, similar to what you'd see in night vision goggles.

I am annoyed. Not Being able to enter the Ether as easily anymore s doing that to me. These disturbing revelations don't really mean much to me as they are just shadows among the walls and the recesses of the inmates minds. Thank god my 6th house is in Leo, otherwise the stress of this place would've made me sick by now.

I thoroughly enjoyed last night's dream. I was shopping at a mall or something like that and I just so happened to see Chiro. Somehow we were both single and decided to leave together. Jahon came in like a jealous bad ass ex Russian boyfriend, trying to run into our car with a black kia or something. We evaded it which lead to a chase on the highway. We decided to go to the airport and flee to Japan.

I checked out 2 books, The Essential Kabbalah and Библия. The Kabbalah I feel is just a man's attempt to describe the ineffable through an Abrahamic lens. "The Anatomy of God", the 10 Sephirot, serve as some metaphysical system of the aspects of divinity, but even in the book they say the task is folly. They even made up some sort of unit of measurement: Parasangs. They attempt to describe it in physical measure, then ascend or descend into the fantastical. Maybe these old Rabbi were able to perceive multiple dimensions or something of that nature?

After that reading I decided to take a break and drew a little sketch of Chiro. I was just going off memory so, I am not sure how accurate it is anymore. I am pretty sure I made his hair better than what it is.

Unfortunately, I didn't have enough common sense to date all the tissues I wrote on while incarcerated so, the beginning of this series might be chronologically out of order, but I have managed to write up to 79 pages throughout my stay in jail. To clarify, I was in there for a misdemeanor for harassment so, didn't hurt anyone majorly. I was in custody for 39 days and kept my time by continuing to write. It was sort of my blessing and curse.

Murder at the Manor - II
“Yes!” I said enthusiastically, rehashing to her the section and my contemplations on it. “Hmm. I ponder if the reply lies in Maggie’s diary.”

Most kids in tall school went through their summers at the pool or on excursion, but I favored to spend mine in a library.

The last trip. Content Warning.
On a bitterly cold December night in 2024, a heavy silence enveloped the municipality of Attaf in the state of Ghardaia, as if the earth was holding its breath waiting for a disaster. Inside a small car heading into the unknown, four innocent children, aged between four and eleven, sat laughing and talking about the outing their father had promised them. None of them knew that this would be their last trip.

Edmonton Security Guard's Death Highlights Government Failure
In a heart-wrenching incident on Dec-06–2024, a young security guard, reportedly a student, was tragically shot and killed while on duty at a site in Edmonton. The guard, who was working alone and unarmed, was attacked in circumstances that highlight the vulnerabilities faced by those in the security profession. This devastating event underscores the glaring deficiencies in the training, resources, and support provided to security personnel by employers and regulatory bodies. It is a preventable tragedy that demands urgent action from the Government of Alberta, Alberta Public Safety and Emergency Services, and security companies.

The First Shadow: Unveiling Jack the Ripper's Earliest Crime
Without further ado after 3:30 a.m., Charles Cross strolled through the overflowing ghettos of London’s Whitechapel neighborhood on his way to work. As he strolled down Buck’s Row—a calm byway flanked by distribution centers and miserable, two-story cottages—Cross looked through the obscurity and spotted something bizarre drooped against the gated steady entrance on the other side of the road. As Cross crept closer over the cobblestones, he made a horrible revelation. “I might not tell in the dim what it was at first,” he said. “It looked to me like a covering sheet, but venturing into the street, I saw it was the body of a woman.”
