I just picked up the book “Vanished” written by Anna Hays and Illustrated by Mary Kate McDevitt. It’s a historical non-fiction that explores the life and lost legacies of seven different female magicians during the Golden Age of Magic.

I’m not very deep into the book yet but thus far it has been a super fun read, and the beautiful illustration just add to the uniqueness of it for me!

    For anyone who didn’t read the article oh man it was a gem!

    “For us it’s a big boost when the animals win and poachers lose. The Kruger is huge and we can’t be everywhere so it’s nice when the nellies give us some help!”

    It goes on to mention other times animals have absolutely annihilated poachers! It was fabulous!

    Robert Kraft and Ed Sheeran are not the same. This is a false equivalence argument. The “mass” is angry at Ed Sheeran because Ed Sheeran has “mass” appeal.

    While I understand you are speaking from a capitalistic power perspective, in that Krafts’ $15.2 Billion buying power compared to Sheeran’s $400 million buying power. I mean obviously.

    But Sheeran’s cultural buying power is not just astronomical but also profoundly meaningful. He had an opportunity to make a very LOUD stance — but instead he decided to kneel down mouth open.

    We already know Robert Kraft is a self righteous piece of human filth. The mass expects nothing of him, but much of Ed Sheeran.

    I feel this in my soul. I’m an adult in that I pay rent, feed my kid, etc. but I’m also overly traumatized by the world around me so I retreated into the same things that made me happy as a kid. Also, my brain is wholly convinced I’m 12 not 36.
