“. . . it's still baffling as to why social media companies are able to shirk responsibility for the extreme harm perpetrated via their sites. Imagine if such harms were routinely inflicted on members of the public visiting other types of privately owned spaces - like shopping malls or amusement parks.”

“Some of the farm's work reached a level of granularity that stunned Lyudmilla. Two trolls would go on the comments sections of small' provincial newspapers and start chatting about the street they lived in, the weather, then caually recommend a piece about the nefarious West attacking Russia. No one who worked at the farm described themselves as trolls. Instead, they talked about their work in the passive voice ('a piece was written', 'a comment was made'). Most treated the farm as if it was just another job, doing the minimum required and then clocking off. Many of them seemed pleasant enough young people, with open, pretty faces, and yet they didn't blink when asked to smear, degrade, insult and humiliate their victims. The ease with which victims were attacked, the scale at which the farm operated, it all stunned Lyudmilla.”

“The white birds gorged on the swarm of dead bluebottles that had carpeted the ground. The cold had killed them the moment they left the heat of the chimney. The birds grew fatter before Tatum’s eyes and their features grew hideously distorted, but they continued their gluttony. The Nurse said, ‘They can’t help themselves - the poison is irresistible to them.’ The white birds devoured every bluebottle, and the heavily laden flock ascended slowly into the air and then went in search of their next feast.”

“Love is discovering the true inner essence of our beloved Love... we could speak about it for days. About the beautiful moments, but also about the pain it can sometimes bring.It is a feeling we never want to miss, yet it can also touch us deeply. Love can fill our hearts with warmth and connection, but it can also leave us with sorrow. These feelings are intense and impossible to suppress. They come straight from the heart and cannot be denied. We may try to hide them from others, but never from ourselves. When we look into the mirror, we know what we truly feel. We can fall in love several times in life, and sometimes we choose the wrong person. But somewhere, there is that one person who truly matters. That one can touch our heart without many words, sometimes with only one glance. In a single moment, everything can change, and the heart begins to beat faster. Falling in love is a special emotion
where feelings and reason are not always in balance. But among billions of people, there is that one person who can truly make us happy. Someone with whom we feel a deeper connection. When we find that person, a feeling of certainty and warmth begins to grow. Sometimes it starts as love at first sight, but grows into something deeper: a connection with the inner essence of the other.”
