As I read the news about the man in his 80s who killed his wife and two adult children in a murder-suicide at their Granada Hills home, my heart sank. It’s a tragic and senseless act that leaves us questioning what could have driven someone to such extreme measures after all these years.
The details of this case, along with the mention of a similar incident in Norway, leave me deeply puzzled. I find myself wondering why these individuals didn’t choose to take a different path. Instead of resorting to violence, why couldn’t they have chosen to sell everything, disappear to a remote island, or even just end their own lives?… Continue reading
I’m still processing the news of the six bodies found at a remote crossroads in California’s Mojave Desert. It’s a chilling and unsettling discovery that raises many questions and sends shivers down my spine. Isn’t there some kind of folklore about bodies at crossroads, that they can’t find heaven or something? It reminds me of the plot of “No Country for Old Men,” a dark and gripping tale that haunts the mind.
Growing up in the Mojave desert, I was always aware of the dangers that lurked in the vast expanse of land. My father would caution me about the mineshafts that dotted the landscape, warning me about the treacherous fate that awaited anyone who fell in.… Continue reading

Alabama Can Proceed with First-Ever Nitrogen Gas Execution in U.S., Appeals Court Rules
The recent news that Alabama can proceed with the first-ever nitrogen gas execution in the United States has sparked intense debate about the death penalty and the methods used for capital punishment. As someone who fundamentally believes that the death penalty is a flawed and unjust system, I find myself conflicted by the discussion surrounding this particular case.
Let me be clear from the outset – I am opposed to the death penalty. I believe it is an archaic and barbaric practice that goes against the principles of a justice system built on reducing harm and preventing crime.… Continue reading
Over 7,000 students in Georgia have been granted a sigh of relief as Arby’s Foundation stepped in to wipe out their lunch debts with a generous $1 million donation. While it’s heartwarming to see this situation resolved, it is deeply distressing that such a problem exists in the first place. As someone who has worked in education for years, I strongly believe that “lunch debt” should never be a thing.
The concept of children being penalized for their parents’ inability to pay for their lunches is nothing short of insane. These kids are at school because they have to be, and it is our responsibility to ensure that they are properly fed so they can learn and thrive.… Continue reading
The recent ruling by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) regarding the genocide case against Israel has sparked considerable controversy and debate. As a concerned individual, I have closely followed the developments surrounding this case, and I believe it is crucial to reflect on the implications of the preliminary ruling.
To begin, it is essential to clarify what the ICJ ruling does and does not mean. Contrary to some misleading headlines, the court did not declare that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Rather, it acknowledged that some actions and omissions alleged by South Africa could potentially fall under the provisions of the Genocide Convention.… Continue reading

Now, I must say, I’m not entirely surprised by this revelation.… Continue reading
