Black Lives Matter - Guest Post
Sadly, the colour of the skin don't just define a person's beauty. But also, it won't let you be treated equally. Hashtag-Black lives matter, Justice for George Floyd, All lives matter and what not, Internet is filled with all of this because, No one deserves to die by getting choked up till suffocation and breathlessness. No! Not when you're innocent. People coming on the streets, Burning buildings, Risking their lives, Because the people in authority, are white. The people in charge, Care more about their pride. Putting guns of people's heads, Beating them, And locking them inside, And still, no one will shut up. That means you need to learn what's right. Asking for equality, Speaking up for rights, As we're the citizens of the country. But it seems like, Government don't care about it's duty. All they wanna do is, Shut people up who fight . We also got to see a lot of hypocrisy in this fight of equality and living of black people. People bullies black kids at school, Public beating up a kind black man, assuming that he's stealing, Treating co-workers like shit because of the colour of their skin, Making fun of the black lady walking down the street. So many stories unheard, Justice un-served. I don't understand what's more messed up ? The system or the mentality ? So, I stand up today and ask, What's the point of destroying innocent people's lives, When all they ask for is ,basic human rights .

THE DEVIL IN ALL THE TIME
The Devil All the Time is a 2020 American psychological thriller film based on the novel of the same name by Donald Ray Pollock. Directed and co-written by Antonio Campos and produced by Jake Gyllenhaal and Randall Poster, the film stars an ensemble cast comprising Tom Holland, Bill Skarsgård, Riley Keough, Jason Clarke, Sebastian Stan, Haley Bennett, Eliza Scanlen, Mia Wasikowska and Robert Pattinson.
The Devil All the Time was released in select theaters on September 11, 2020, and was released digitally on Netflix on September 16, 2020. The film received mixed to positive reviews from critics, who praised the performances (particularly those of Holland and Pattinson) but found it excessively grim and violent.
PLOT
The Devil All The Time is set between the aftermath of World War II and before the Vietnam War. The film starts off with a soldier, Willard Russell (Bill Skarsgård), returning from the War in the Pacific, bearing the gruesome and haunting images of the war who meets his wife at a cafe. Willard refused to indulge in prayer after what he'd witnessed on the frontline. But when he and his wife move to a small house up the hill in Ohio, he sets up makeshift altar behind his cabin in the woods where he would take his son along to pray.
His faith in god returns after his wife is diagnosed with cancer. A number of prayers and a horrific sacrifice later, she passed away and Willard doesn't stay long either, leaving behind Arvin by himself. He is taken to his grandma's home where he meets his stepsister, Lenora (Eliza Scanlen) who had a similarly tragic story to tell. Born to Roy Laferty (Harry Melling), a preacher who has an unexplainable belief in the Holy God's power and his sweet wife (Mia Wasikowska), she was left behind with Arvin's grandmother before the couple met their brutal deaths.
She grows up with her father's belief but holds on to her mother's innocence. Whereas Arvin walked the shoes of his father, with a lack of prayer and just enough anger to protect his little sister. As they two grow up, they cross paths with a new preacher (Robert Pattinson) who seems like a devil wearing a saint's cloak. The story takes an uncomfortable road through the woods, exploring the darkest secrets of the preacher and Arvin's attempt to unravel his true identity with blood on his hand.
Arvin then crosses paths with Sandy and Carl (Riley Keough and Jason Clarke), a twisted couple, who pick up hitchhikers and perform obscene photoshoots. The movie comes a full circle as Arvin manages to escape the twisted couple and return home to pay his last respects for a dog he lost as a child and hopes to start a fresh life.
The film was released in select theaters on September 11, 2020, and was released digitally on Netflix on September 16, 2020.

A note to Self
Dear self
I am sorry that I treated you like some grime,
when you were there with me the whole time,
I am sorry that I always put people above you,
but only you were there every-time I was feeling blue,
I am sorry that I put you under so much pain,
to be someone's favorite I put you in a chain,
I am sorry that I always called you ugly and lame,
because I was weak and you were the only one who I could easily blame,
I am sorry that I put a mask on you,
and pretended to be someone completely new,
I always thought that happiness was present in hollow treasure,
but now I realize that loving you is the true secret to my pleasure
