As Bo Buster's writes in her book Do Story :
The gleaming detail is the one thing that captures both the emotion and idea of the story at once, in one fell swoop. A singular, elegant moment of clarity. It is a literal representation of the truth that is inherent within every story.

Introverts don’t crave attention. They crave comfort. Kindness. Gentleness. A heart that cares without judgment. They carve slow quiet mornings, a clean cozy room, and a playlist that feels like home, and someone who understands them.
They don’t want to impress anyone. They just want to exist without performing,... See more
Karun Palsubstack.comIntroverts hate asking for help. For favours. For advise. Even when they're in pain. Even when they're suffering. They don't. Because it feels like burden. So, they bear it all alone. They bottle it all up. Act “fine” even when they’re not. They're fiercely independent, but sometimes they need help too. But they just don't know how to ask. And...

I now believe that the architects of the Covid disaster are getting caught on purpose. Think about it — nearly every aspect of this operation that we’ve “discovered” is right out there in the open waiting to be found. They are getting caught on purpose because getting away with a crime is the ultimate flex of state power.... See more
Toby Rogerssubstack.comIntroverts get attached to energy. Not looks. Not status. Not words. If you bring calm, they’ll trust you. Open up to you. They'll make you feel like one in a million. But if you bring chaos, mixed signals, drama, inconsistency… it's over. No fights. No explanations. Just silence. And trust me, they're not rude, they're just protecting their heart.

Defenders of germ “theory” dismiss Koch’s first postulate—that a microbe should be found only in the sick, not the healthy—as “outdated” because of asymptomatic carriers. But that excuse turns a criterion meant to falsify the germ hypothesis into an unfalsifiable belief.
Logically, Koch knew that correlation didn’t... See more
