It isn't just the president of the land of the free, who now finally has got his own bone spur war. All over the World our so-called leaders miss the boat to prepare, to inform and to anticipate what's coming to invade their peoples. The lack of decisiveness is an absolute outrage, in that sense there's a lot more who should be held accountable for their sorry attempts to fail miserably. 
However there's one who spans the crown, and that's exactly the one who likes to see himself as king of the day. His very own ignorance and stupidity hinder those who do the real groundwork. The way he speaks about this virus is outright disgusting and every time he deliberately chides, for only one reason and one reason only; he isn't to be blamed for this. 
What he will blamed for is the fact that he lived in utter denial of this occurrence and that he didn't take appropriate action as he should have, now for over two months ago.
It is therefore we call this virus and illness:
the Trump flu.

40 parts Ongoing
She survived the end. But it's only the beginning. Ever escaped Earth before life, as she knows it, was wiped from the planet. She lost everything: her parents and sister. Forced to leave behind her best friend, and the two boys she loves; their fate is unknown. She's headed to a new planet, where her brother, whom she thought was dead, waits patiently for her arrival. But this new world is not what it seems and her sister's final words weigh heavily at the forefront of her mind: "your friends may be your foes and your foes may be your only chance for survival." She doesn't know who to trust, including herself. Memory reimaging has scrambled her brain, making it difficult to decipher fact from fiction. To make matters worse, as a genetically modified human and the sole woman with the ability to procreate, Ever finds herself in a unique and terrifying position. The evil corporation, Environettix wants to exploit her, and she's not the only one they are after. The other Mods from Earth have been brought to the new planet, but not for the reasons they believe. Things are spiraling out of control. Environettix is getting desperate and desperation makes people do unimaginable things. As Ever navigates her way through a labyrinth of lies, she discovers one truth to be absolute: They shouldn't be here. This planet does not belong to them, and things that don't belong, have a way of being...extinguished. *This is Book 2 in The Dissonance Series
Poems of Pain and Solitude by words_harm_and_heal
101 parts Complete
For every person out there that was quiet, not because they chose to be so, but because they were choking in the smoke. Because their opinions were apparently not worth anything. Because they didn't know just how to say what they felt. For every person that is consumed by their own thoughts, the derision from the outside world only making it worse. For every soul that was drowning in remorse and anguish on restless nights. For every soul that says I love you in the dark and in the mirror because no one else does. For the floors we would pace while anxiety sunk its teeth into us. For the mirrors that we would break while shame echoed its laugh in our caged walls. For the hearts that would ache while loneliness was the only company. For every moment of pain and solitude in this world that feels too cruel for such young and frail minds.

There is a community of the spirit. Join it, and feel the delight of walking in the noisy street, and being the noise. Drink all your passion, and be a disgrace. Close both eyes to see with the other eye. Open your hands, if you want to be held. Sit down in this circle. Quit acting like a wolf, and feel the shepherd's love filling you. At night, your beloved wanders. Don't accept consolations. Close your mouth against food. Taste the food. You moan, "She left me." "He left me." Twenty more will come. Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought! Why do you stay in prison when the door is so wide open? Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking. Live in silence. Flow down and down in always widening rings of being. There's a strange frenzy in my head, of birds, flying, each particle circulating on its own. Is the one I love everywhere? Drunks fear the police, but the police are drunk too. People in this town love them both like different chess pieces. ----------------------------------- All things that we hide in our hearts eat us alive. This book is - full of emotions, love, care and agitation. Well, you need to read this to know what's in. Moreover, It consists of quotes, snippets, poems, bits of advice...Ummm simply deep and random stuff. Go Ahead!

L.O.V.E. by denissebloom04
30 parts Complete
100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)

When Life Stands Still by Zancherie

~~~~ Please keep in mind that this is a BL (Boy's Love) and apocalyptic novel. Any normal apocalypse comes with a lot of issues - like violence, gore, abuse. As such this novel will have these topics and has been marked as 'MATURE'. If you are uncomfortable with any of this - please don't read the book. ~~~~ In a world unraveling under a relentless zombie plague, Ash Kage is more than a survivor. Born with unparalleled recovery powers, Ash has lived most of his life hidden away from the world in a secret bioengineering laboratory. His only companion was a biologically modified woman who spread the infection on her escape. Now on the run - haunted by guilt and hunted by those in search of a cure that hides in his blood, Ash finds shelter with a rather tough group of survivors. There he meets Rhys Grant - the handsome, strong, sharp eyed leader whom everyone looked up to. The attraction between them is immediately and undeniably, but so is the danger. When misunderstanding happens, an unconscious use of power causes fragments of memories of a shared past start to surface. Trust freys, desires burn and allies turn to enemies as they are drawn to each other but lack trust in one another. Will they figure out their differences or will the misunderstandings consume them? Can Ash escape the destiny of his past life and escape capture from the mad scientists who see his only value in being the cure?
