Living Through the Storm: Survival Skills for the 21st Century
It wasn’t always this loud. The world, I mean. There was a time when mornings weren’t accompanied by a flood of notifications, when conversations didn’t compete with scrolling thumbs, and when uncertainty was the exception—not the air we all breathed. But somewhere between the rapid rise of technology and the unraveling of once-solid structures—jobs, relationships, the environment—it began to feel like life itself had turned into a storm. And we, unwittingly, were learning how to live through it.

The Real Highthouse Story
For years, the tale of the Highthouse has intrigued thrill-seekers, paranormal enthusiasts, and local historians alike. Tucked away in the woods of an unnamed rural area, this crumbling structure has inspired countless ghost stories, urban legends, and even a few amateur documentaries. But what’s the real story behind Highthouse? The Origins of Highthouse Contrary to what many believe, Highthouse wasn’t always a haunted ruin. Built in the late 1800s, it was originally the estate of a wealthy but reclusive industrialist named Elias Hightham. Hightham, known for his eccentric ways, designed the house with towering spires and narrow windows, giving it a spooky, gothic vibe even in its heyday. Local records hint that Hightham was a secretive figure, rumored to have conducted bizarre experiments within his home. Some stories suggest he dabbled in alchemy, while others claim he was obsessed with reaching out to the dead. Whether these tales hold any truth or are just the result of small-town gossip remains a mystery. The Tragic Downfall The Hightham family’s luck took a dark turn in the early 1900s. Following a series of unexplained deaths—including those of Elias’ wife and two children—the house was left to decay. Some say Elias lost his mind from grief and disappeared into the wilderness, while others insist he never truly left the house. By the 1920s, Highthouse had turned into a hotspot for trespassers, vandals, and those in search of supernatural experiences. Reports of ghostly figures appearing in the windows, disembodied whispers, and even physical confrontations with visitors began to emerge. Whether these accounts are genuine paranormal happenings or just the product of vivid imaginations is still up for debate.

When the U.S. Tried to Invade Canada… and Accidentally Invaded Itself
History is usually told with a straight face: kings and queens, wars and treaties, nations rising and falling with grim determination. But every so often, a moment sneaks through the cracks - a moment so ridiculous, so misguided, that you have to wonder if the people involved were reading from the wrong script.

Claudette Colvin: The Forgotten Teenager Who Sparked a Movement
History often remembers Rosa Parks as the woman whose defiance on a Montgomery bus sparked the Civil Rights Movement. However, Claudette Colvin, an adolescent, made the same move nearly nine months before Parks made her sit or stand. At just 15 years old, Colvin refused to give up her seat to a white passenger on a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama. However, in the majority of the movement's retellings, her story was largely omitted, rewritten, or omitted entirely. Understanding why reveals much about how history is shaped—not only by events, but by the choices of those who record them.
