Diaries to Nietzsche
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Who Is Clavicular? The Looksmaxxing Streamer Who Ran Over A Stalker In His Cybertruck
What is so damaging to this current culture is the ant-intellectualism which pervades nearly every element of it. Clavicular, real name, Braden Peters equivocates physical form with getting women, making money, and overall being a strong “man.”

Scrooge has entered the building!
From the swirling depths of inner turmoil, I grace you with a moment of much-needed sarcasm... I was gifted/tempted with the task of sharing unbiased opinions for a torrent of uplifting pieces of written art that have found their way to my unapproving eyes.

Taking a Different Approach on Birthdays
Hello November! It's my birthday month, meaning that I'm a Scorpio, if you're into that sort of thing. One of the best traits about my zodiac sign is that I'm competitive and want to succeed in life. I love celebrating my birthday, which happens to be on November 13. In case you're curious how old I'll be. I'll be turning 38 years old. If you look at my profile picture on here, you must be thinking that I don't look my age and you're right. I've been mistaken for a high school student and a college student. I'm fine with that and looking youthful works to my advantage. You've heard the saying, "Black don't crack." It's another way of saying that black people don't show any signs of aging. As I near 40, I've since outgrown birthday parties. The last time I had a birthday party was at home after school and 14. Nearly 25 years later, someone throwing me a party, while the gesture is admirable and with good intent, I don't feel the need to dress up and attend my own party thrown by someone else. I turned 18 in 2005 and my friend at the time took me out to miniature golf, then had my birthday dinner at Olive Garden. Besides, who doesn't love their endless breadsticks? The staff surprised me with a chocolate cake. After that, my friend and I went to Best Buy, and I chose my first country CD. That album was Toby Keith's Honkytonk University. I couldn't wait to go home and listen to it. I wore that CD out on a daily basis, because no songs from that album were skippable. It was so good and had since fallen in love with country music. Unfortunately, I ended my friendship with my long-time friend and classmate in 2021 after nearly two decades, due to his anti-gay views. I came out to him in the summer of 2012, several months after I came out of the closet. We're no longer friends, but that was one of the best birthday memories I've ever had.

If Great Dead Writers Were on Facebook - 3
I have started these series with the Russian writers and then thought why should I have all the fun alone (thanks to Raymond G. Taylor for the idea to turn this into an unofficial challenge!). So I'm opening it up for others who would like to see if they can bring dead writers into the modernity through their imagined Facebook or other social media posts.

THIS IS WILD Tourette's Campaigner John Davidson Shouts November At Michael B. Jordan & Delroy Lindo During BAFTA Awards
As it stands, the word November, should only be used by Foundational Black Americans (FBA). After centuries of turmoil and savage drudgery, they should be only people to express such a sentiment. November is such a word rooted in history and dipped in blood that for any other group of people to utter it should be reprimanded and censured.

The sign of the cross; Part 2 A
The ancient tav was usually an X, not a +! When scholars talk about the ancient Hebrew letter tav, they mean the letter as it appeared in the Paleo‑Hebrew and Proto‑Canaanite alphabets. In those scripts, the tav was most commonly drawn as: an X shape or; a slightly tilted cross‑like shape, but not the Christian cross.

The sign of the cross; Part 1 a
If we speak strictly from the New Testament and the first‑century Church, the answer is no. The apostles never taught that the shape of the cross is a spiritual symbol, a protection, or a prayer. They preached Christ crucified, but they did not use the cross as a devotional object or gesture.

The sign of the cross; part 3
The Bible warns us about exactly this problem. Your instinct goes straight to the bronze serpent - and that is the perfect example. God Himself commanded the serpent. It was legitimate. It was holy. It healed people. But later generations turned it into an object of power. They burned incense to it. They treated it as sacred in itself. And what did the righteous king do? He smashed it. He called it "a piece of bronze."

MOVIE TRAILER: "Is God Is" Trailer Drops: Sisters Seek Revenge On Father Who Set Them On Fire As Babies
The trailer to the adaptation to Aleshea Harris’ play is just more Hollywood schlock to pin down the black man and make him out to be a monster. The Color Purple fueled this fire and it continues to burn because it is digestible to white audiences, especially.

CANCER PATIENT CUT OFF The Government Tried To Tell A 59-Year-Old Dallas Woman With Cancer She Wasn't A US Citizen To Cut Off Her Benefits
For Ramona Rakestraw, the government incompetence is real. This is the impending death knell for Foundational Black Americans (FBA). While Hispanics continue to be rounded up by the authorities like Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), blacks keep on keeping on by making themselves known to their government that they’re citizens, too.
