The Loneliness of Humankind
We are not only upset because our children are now hungry, but we also suffer when we think about the next month the whole family will be starving. We not only experience our pain, of the individuals around us, but we also empathize with stories hundreds of years ago, even if it was a lie. Not only do we despair in the moment of separation, but we have firsthand experience of this even when we have just thought of it.

ROBOT&WORLD
ROBOT&WORLD... When robots could have the above functionalities and begin to "live" all together reliant large number, we ought to sensibly see them as agreeable creatures. Friendly robots could frame network of robots. When robots could work as characterized above and structure a network they would no longer need to live as captives of their human experts. When that happens it would be the start of a history that robots might challenge people or start their reason for assuming control over people.

The Loneliness of Humankind | Part 2
2. Forlornness - modern humans' "sumptuous feeling." The human society has evolved at a rate that outstrips that of biological evolution. The Holocene calendar claims that humans first settled down roughly 12,000 years ago, while Homo sapiens had formerly existed for 200,000 years. Insomuch as the "fight or flight" mechanism must have been dated to as early as mega-annum ago, since the dawn of the first species with the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.

Doctor Who: the problem with 'The Timeless Child'
The Timeless Child retcon presents a problem for the long running British institution that is Doctor Who. I recognise that this isn’t exactly a hot take; the finale of Jodie Whitaker’s second season as The Doctor aired well over a month ago. However, I wasn’t on Vocal back then, so what are you going to do about it? Also, now that everyone has had their chance to watch it, you can’t complain about the massive spoilers I’ll be hurling about with almost spiteful abandon; you’ve been warned.

Top 5 Moments from Star Wars. Top Story - May 2020.
When we think of movie franchises, it is hard to ignore Star Wars. From the time the first film graced our screens in 1977, the space opera saga has grown into the second highest grossing franchise of all time, beating out the likes of Harry Potter and James Bond, which house some of the most iconic films the world of cinema has seen in recent years. This alone should speak volumes of how successful this franchise has grown - and now, even after 9 full feature films, 2 anthology films, eight animated TV series', and a brand new live action series, it doesn't show any signs of slowing down. Admittedly, Star Wars has had its fair share of problems in the recent past and while the future looks rather uncertain for how it will be proceeding, nobody can deny its rightful place as one of the most influential film franchises to ever exist.

Clockworks Chronicles of Zahn
15) Dark Leechcraft Victoria II stood with her back to the room, looking out the window toward the eastern sunrise. The other occupants of the room were quietly but uneasily awaiting Her Eminence’s pleasure. The War Room had rows of chairs and a huge table dominated by a raised relief map of The Civilization. It was to be a council of Victoria’s most trusted group. This included five from the Arch Mage Council, Dr Saba and two more of the Healer’s Guild Council. There were also representatives of eight major religions of Zahn. General Magnus and the four Home Guard major generals were in attendance as well.

Azazel: Fallen Angel, or Something Else?
Anyone who's read even a bit of the Bible has come across the creation story, and the loss of the garden of Eden. Adam and Eve lived in the garden of Eden until the Serpent tempted Eve with knowledge that was only supposed to be God's. So she ate of the tree of Knowledge, and so did Adam. The couple got caught big time, and they were cast out along with the Serpent who had begun the whole mess. The moral of the story is that you should never trust anything a snake tells you is a good idea, right?
