Starmer sells the UK while Israel burns patients alive in Gaza
United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer has made no secret of his devotion to Israel, refusing to stop arms sales to Benjamin Netanyahu’s terrorist regime since Labour’s election victory in July despite the Zionist state’s year-long campaign of genocide in Gaza.

From Washington to Cardiff the 'red line' speaks volumes
A symbolic red line, representing all those politicians in the United States and United Kingdom have failed to draw or allowed Israel to cross during the past 12 months, first appeared around the White House in Washington in June after US President Joe Biden had warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in March that he would cross a “red line” if he ordered an invasion of Rafah, where more than a million Palestinian civilians have sought shelter since Israel’s genocidal ethnic cleansing of Gaza began in October last year.

Restoration projects are a labor of love
I've done a lot of research as I spend my days surfing the net. Besides my fascination with the different classifications of animals, or my interest in websites that support entrepreneurs, I also like to look at real estate and architecture. I think it's amazing how a designer or architect puts various pieces together like a puzzle to come up with a final design. Every choice they make in materials, style, and artistic display has a message of something from history or something modern and new. If I ruled the world, I would not let salvagable houses or buildings get demolished. I would dub them historic and set them up for reconstruction. The house pictured above, set to be demolished in South Carolina, would be restored if it was possible to do so.

The Truth About Kamala Harris and Joe Biden’s Economy: What Trump and Vance Don’t Want You to Know
I have taken the time to research and write this essay because I feel it is important that people vote on the facts instead of lies. I find it reprehensible that Donald Trump and J.D. Vance are basing a major part of their presidential campaign on an outright lie.

Educational Institutes Leave American Citizens UnEducated
I watched a video today that made me have the ugliest epiphany. I remember my history teacher in middle school getting irate with me. Because I corrected him. I remember an argument where several people of color called me a 'fucking white lying racist bitch,' and verbally assaulted me because I corrected them too. Because they were wrong. I knew they were wrong. But I didn't understand that I was the only one in a sea of people where only a handful of us knew the truth.

Ephrata's Dirty Little Secret
Ephrata, Pennsylvania, is a picturesque town that proudly boasts the Green Dragon Farmers Market and attracts numerous visitors each year. However, behind its idyllic charm lies a darker reality: a growing homeless population that is becoming increasingly marginalized by local government policies. This issue is not just about individuals sleeping on the streets but also includes those who live in cars, bounce between couches, or find temporary shelter in storage units, offices, or even at their jobs. Ephrata’s homeless population is criminalized through ambiguous laws, denied meaningful assistance, and excluded from the community’s compassion—a crisis that has led to controversial enforcement, legal battles, and public outcry.

Coercive Control
Coercive control, and its emotional and financial abuse, constitute a form of "serious bodily harm" as defined under 50 Pa. Stat. § 7304, which allows for involuntary emergency treatment when an individual poses a clear and present danger of harm to themselves or others. The statute recognizes that serious bodily harm includes not just physical injuries but also the significant physical consequences that result from psychological trauma and deprivation of essential resources, such as food, shelter, and healthcare. The detrimental physical effects caused by chronic stress, anxiety, and deprivation, stemming from coercive control, clearly satisfy this statutory requirement for "serious bodily harm."

Keep Elon Musk Out of The White House
Catch this: Donald Trump is considering giving Elon Musk a place in his administration if he wins this election. Yes, Elon Musk, of all people. If that isn't a conflict of interest, I don't know what is. Even more conflicting is that Musk would be in charge of a government efficiency commission. Yep, Elon Musk, whose "efficiency cleanup" of Twitter (now known as X) has resulted in a whopping 74% decline in its value. That's not the kind of person I would want in charge of a government efficiency program if I were president.
