a meal for worms
MỘT BỮA CƠM CHO GIÒI VỌT
Nếu tôi kế cho bạn nghe nỗi sợ hãi của tôi, bạn sẽ tin không? Chúng nó chẳng khác chi của bạn, chúng được bao bọc trong một đặc tính của nỗi lo sợ.
Định nghĩa của chúng ta không nên đề cập đến tuổi tác, nhưng nó là một đặc ân với giới hạn. Tôi đã nhìn vào một cặp mắt đầy ắp nụ cười mà đã không nhận ra người đó là ai.
Ký ức tôi đã lừa chính cả tôi, những sự hoang mang theo đuổi một trí não suy tàn, chìm sâu vào lòng đất tối tăm này là một bữa cơm cho giòi vọt.
Nỗi u uất của những ngày đã qua.

A MEAL FOR WORMS
If I tell you my fears, would you believe me? They are no different from yours, wrapped in an ethos of anxieties.

Trick Or Treat
Wolf like dogs howl
At elusive moon
candy clouds abound
Out on the prowl
Ghouls play foul
Donning ensemble
Unearthly assemble
Phantoms bogle
Corn mazes , hay rides
Haunted houses fear belied
Green eyed sirens
Black cats roar like lions
Ravens fly blading the sky
Zombies spook
Owls hoot up trees
Skeletons sneak
Ghoulish scenes
Jack -o’-lanterns swinging
Errant wind chilling
Silhouettes creep creepily
Dead walk the gloom dreadfully
A witch cackles , swishes her broom
Her magic hat goes vroom
Goblins, imps, pixies
Trolls, brownies,
Pranking Bogies
Lightening the pumpkins
Carving trick or treat
Being scary is no mean feat
Exclusive: shark finning rampant across Chinese tuna firm’s fleet
- Dalian Ocean Fishing used banned gear to deliberately catch and illegally cut the fins off of huge numbers of sharks in international waters, Mongabay has found.
- Just five of the company’s longline boats harvested roughly 5.1 metric tons of dried shark fin in the western Pacific Ocean in 2019. That equates to a larger estimated shark catch that what China reported for the nation’s entire longline fleet in the same time and place.
- The findings are based on dozens of interviews with men who worked throughout the company’s fleet of some 35 longline boats. A previous investigation by Mongabay and its partners uncovered widespread abuse of crew across the same firm’s vessels.
- Campaigners said Dalian Ocean Fishing’s newly uncovered practices were a “disaster” for shark conservation efforts.

California launches site to track results of rape kits after police backlogs – Los Angeles Times
California on Tuesday launched a website that allows victims of sexual assault to track the status of the results of their medical exams — an effort to address widespread complaints about wait times due to backlogged cases at local police departments.
The online portal, hosted by the California Department of Justice, allows victims to search for results of rape kits completed after 2018.
Sexual assault forensic exams are completed in hospitals and sent to local law enforcement departments, which are tasked with linking DNA to perpetrators. But in California and nationwide, the evidence has sat on shelves at police and sheriff’s departments, in some cases going untested for years.

So near the finish line
I can’t slip up now & miss it

This, I won’t quit

‘They were ready to be tried under the law’ In the occupied Luhansk region, Russian soldiers who refuse to fight are imprisoned without a trial and pressured back to the frontline — Meduza
at the commandant’s, everyone was placed in a cell completely unsuitable for keeping people. After 10 days, some staff from the prosecutor’s office came in and presented them with an ultimatum: either they return to the frontline, or they all get 10-year prison terms in a high-security penal colony.
