The Internal Singularity

Image
  The Internal Singularity  The silver nanoweave holds me tight... shimmering like a second skin. But the crushing weight isn't coming from the machine. It’s inside. I look down at my chest... and there is no flesh left. No ribs. No heartbeat. Only a collapse. A dark... swirling... singularity. The air in the pod bends around me. The light itself is warping... pulled uncontrollably into the hollow where my soul used to be. I see my fear—those thin, fractured arcs of violet lightning—trying to break free. But they don't flare out. They are dragged back in. Violently sucked into the crushing gravity of this... bottomless despair. Nothing escapes. Not the light. Not the scream. Not me.

Labels Against Women | #Shine Strong Pantene

The commercial opens with a man and woman walking into separate meeting rooms. The man leading the meeting has the word “Boss” emblazoned behind him. The female leader has the word “Bossy.” The video shows men and women doing the same things, but with different labels associated with their activities. Where the man is “persuasive,” the woman is “pushy.” A man working late is shown as “dedicated.” The woman doing the same is labeled “selfish.” More labels continue, until the ad closes urging women: “Don’t let labels hold you back. Be strong and shine .” Forbes http://goo.gl/7gplGK
