Picture a page—once brimming with thoughts, passions, and individuality—rendered blank. Nothing left of my arguments, musings, or idiosyncrasies. Nothing left of me. In times of oppression, language often becomes a weapon in the hands of the perpetrator: something used to rewrite history,…

It is true that the climate has changed and humans are accountable for causing it? Global warming has been one of the biggest deals of political and scientific controversy. As we know that the scientists have discovered mysteries of the world and universe in the past decades. Is it to be believed that humans are involved in causing the global warming?

These trees are thorny however giraffes are adapted by having a long tongue, about 45 centimetres long. The long tongue is able to manoeuvre around the thorns.

The bird's skull dips in awkwardly on one side, and it falls in its place. Shiro turns, stunned, and grabs the young Prince's wrist. "Why would you do that?"
