Despite efforts to sustain civilization, humanity faces existential threats from overpopulation, globalized trade and travel, urbanization, and global climate change. In A Darwinian Survival Guide, Daniel Brooks and Salvatore Agosta offer a novel—and hopeful—perspective on how to meet these tremendous challenges by changing the discourse from sustainability to survival. Darwinian evolution, the world’s only theory of survival, is the means by which the biosphere has persisted and renewed itself following past environmental perturbations, and it has never failed, they explain.

Instead of waking up eternally doomed to burn in the pits of Hell, I awoke in the courtyard of Castle Dominion.

Now along with my beautiful succubus and Desire—the first of my new dark harem—I will rebuild myself.

In 1856, Lieutenant Henry Aaron Bird makes a startling discovery: a speechless, shipwrecked young girl, living a feral existence on a remote Pacific island. When he exhibits her as a "wild girl" in the chaotic sprawl of early San Francisco, this golden-haired child without a past will be seen by the populace as a scientific curiosity, a titillating image of female savagery, or, for many, a symbol of the unspoiled body of that young country. For Bird, she is a fragile ward in need of protection, whom he keeps drugged and confined when not using her to further his reputation.

But that's the trap, isn't it? Living for them means dying for me. One fateful night, I'm pushed to the brink and escape to the human realm, and am quickly confronted with the violent reality of why I was forbidden to come here.

In A Beautiful Vision, pastor and author Mick R. Murray invites listeners to recover a restorative, biblical vision of human sexuality, one that transcends shame, fear, and confusion. Drawing from Scripture, theology, philosophy, and personal experience, Murray shows that God’s design for our bodies, desires, and relationships is not repressive but redemptive. In a culture where sexual identity and gender expression dominate the headlines, and where the church too often responds with silence or judgment, this book offers a third way: truth with tenderness, conviction with compassion.

Quando, un venerdì di novembre, Skippy si accascia sul pavimento durante una gara a chi mangia più ciambelle, nessuno ci fa caso.

Dal preside, soprannominato l'«Automa», ai genitori e ai professori, evidentemente troppo distratti da tresche e disillusioni personali per accorgersi che qualcosa, nella vita di Skippy, proprio non quadrava.
