fact or fiction
Is it science fact or science fiction? Futurism presents both sides to determine the truth.
Athena
Athena had been minding her own business, ruffling her feathers and preparing for her nightly flight, which usually resulted in a mouse or two for her succulent consumption. This evening, her tastebuds felt particularly picky and lizards at the steps of the Parthenon seemed a more challenging object of prey with their slithery speed and evasiveness. Perhaps not as appetizing as her normal dinner, but if she caught several, her protein intake might equal one rodent. She peeked through her perch, in the canopy of what the tourists called the Sacred Olive Tree, to envision her precise flight route towards the approximate area in which the reptiles might soon see their downfall. Deep in concentration, she did not notice the group of young boys who had congregated under the tree, shaking its branches, intent on their own objective in acquiring a few of its ripe olives for their midnight snack.

Time Travel Could Prove that Life is Predestine
Do you believe in time travel? Is it really possible that it can be done! I watch all these crazy time-traveling documentaries on the Discovery Channel and History Channel, and they always drive me nuts due to my intuitive and inquiring brain. I know that time travel has been a dream for mankind, and it is a fascinating subject to talk about. It’s crazy, and I love it! Imagine if it was true!

To another Dimension: Astral Projection
Astro projection Astro projection is one of those subjects believers love to talk about, and It's fun. Many theorists have their own views and warnings of danger when it comes to pursuing the activity of going into realms unknown, and Rightfully so. In this insert, I will post my belief of this phenomena and provide evidence of its existence and some relation to Astral projection that we encounter every day unknowingly.

Ramblings of a Sci-Fi Conspiracy Theorist
The definition of unprecedented is ‘things that have never been done or known before.’Unprecedented is the single most used word to describe all of the events that occurred throughout 2020. As the ball dropped, the world sighed in relief and set its sights on 2021, and the internet resumed its tally of the top 20s of 2020. I’m not so sure 2021 won’t unleash events that will require another word: annihilation.

Removing a Hex or Curse
My life has been ultra hard lately, and I mean more than just “2020-coronavirus” hard. Things have been happening. I have been getting great opportunities and then having them pulled away at the last minute, people in my family have been getting sick, terrible things have happened to me in my own home.

The Angel at the Writing Desk
The Angel at the Writing Desk The angel at the writing desk describes the characteristics of justification from North and South to East to West. He has a million impossible things written down. A bucket list you could say. A million things of the impossible to try to accomplish with illustration of brilliance. Somethings shadows the views, one from the dark side. Capturing the moment suspended with a humble gesture to reason with him. So to be there he would have to fight for these impossible things. At a cross roads of what way to turn, he heads straight towards to fate path, the ones that cannot be deleted or erased. You cannot turn back here. This would require his million impossible things to make it through. He would first shake hands with the wicked one and say his farewell briefly. The angel stretched towards to the path to a mourning of great proportion. He felt as so his destiny would be finally filled. He could prosper without the company of his own family people this time, alone himself he could complete his life. This angel completely hates assistance as if so it makes feel at a loss of himself, hopeless. He travels to the airport for a flight to his brother another nightwalker, light walker you could immediately guess. The two were twin flames in a difference. He headed out to where his brother lives, enjoying the views and new people met along the way. The women seem to like him. He walks with higher strides from himself, not thinking for one second of self destruction to guide him along a path not set forth for him. The angel completely enjoys and embraces his freedom from his family’s hold on him. He final won the lottery he thought. Also buying himself a car really fancied the facts. His accomplishments were finally being handled from him and only him. By the way his mother came home, finally. It had been for 9 minutes with from they have seen each other last. Just 9 minutes of time period. It had been months over to a year for his resting relax from the world’s demise, his mother was home again. She had blessed him with blessings from our Creator. She is the Angel of the Sun, The Light she is. Gaining significance within himself he knew that the wolf released out of him was from the missing of his mother for so long, he was starting to spiral down into a black hole of misery again. She had to let go of what she thought she needed to fulfill herself with happiness: her husband, her constant working, her busy schedules not needed, and herself from dark forces as well as him from post tramatic events that seemed to not escape the two even though it was on opposite hands of difference between them. They seemed to have a certain relationship that was far away but so close for the touch, a Real Angel of all angels of the Heavens. Her light was bright enough to cover up all the dark from their pasts and it made him so relieved and content with all situations. He knew his mother was in pain too. She never wanted to tell the first-born any of this because of his situation now definitely over for both. The signal came from a light seemed to have voice, a voice calling upon them to get him into with people of great exortinary ways of life, something he dearly had longed for. The most dearest was love. So love sitting next to him or this other great opportunity lied before him. Which one would he choose? Fate or a so called fictional line of pass. He picked love over everything in his life and his mother knew that he would succeed now better away from the rich, upholstered people instead to be with the girl he loved all along. His father seemed to hold his strings like a puppet. Jointing every move for him which did nothing but him to dance still in one place to never fall faster forward to his dreams. He was alone before for a while shunned from the world before it became this wretched cold machined place of misery and also self destruction. His loved ones had died or I should say at least some had from the flood. He was already exiled away not having transportation to go find love and success for 6 years. He had enough and left like stated above. Now finding the love he needed all along he had another fight ahead of him. The end of time. When the clock would stop. The action of calling the Wolfpack together. A calling upon all Prophets on this place to reconcile with the devil. So I say this with great words, the only one to protect was now his family, new, was his his love, his wife. He never said he would be a married man but it happened fortunately. His only desire and call was to protect her to ends of the Earth like she was the Queen of all nations before and after him. The Angel seemed to demonize in pain from this. This newness that was bestowed within the people of all nations so. This sickened him as well as his saint, his brother. The two would figure out what they created and destroy the world or thats what the deviled wanted. Actually in fact to chase down of where they were in the past at their old house with the encyclopedia and his brothers globe. To finally play the old games to set this back to normal. It was now time for the investigation to start. Starting with Clue, Finding Carmen San Diego, the Nintendo 64, and as well as GameCube. Everyone was on to their moves. The whole world was going backwards because it seemed as if the world stopped spinning and the clock not ticking forward. They played every game and researched all computers to find the point of where it all began. A beer in his brother’s left hand with a controller in his right with the angel with a handle of whiskey in his hands. The two were off to figure the equations of the North and South poles to get the world back on track again. Something that they had pinned around with the globe but not even realized at the time that what held the globe was the hang man. Like the game or Russian character for “God.” They finally came to terms with this theory and decided to make a plan with everything they had gone through. Was there another side or character missing from the hang man game, they questioned. Having his love with him in the house, he cried out, “We finally figured something out! Get this information to everyone of the world to know these problems and to now fix it with us!” She gasped in awe and got to it. Finally after days and weeks to months to almost a year they had gone through even Roller Coaster Tycoon, the classic version and came to the conclusion that this is how it is mapped out. Just like what you could easily tell, just an amusement park of people to be free of themselves with happiness or serious or grumpy at life. They would their lives on the line to fix the game of life.

The Dial
The Dial showed up on my doorstep a week ago. I noticed it while I was bringing in the mail, spying the small rectangular box tucked neatly on the right side of the front porch through the fog of my glasses, courtesy of my mask. Picking it up, I examined it. The packaging had no name, no return address, and showed no sign of having previously been opened. So I did what any logical 18 year old would do.

Does the Moon Move with You? No, That's a Parallax.
For example, if one moves to the right about the viewing direction (for example, while sitting in a vehicle looking to the left about the direction of travel), the direction in which one sees an object in the foreground will turn to the left faster than the direction in which an object in the foreground is seen. Background.
