Social Teen

Life is filled with choices. We make thousands of decisions every day - some experts estimate around 35,000. Some of those decisions are so small we don’t even notice them - which side of the street to walk on, perhaps, or which pair of socks to wear. Others have the power to change our lives. Some are difficult; some are fun...but they all require choice. It makes sense, then, that some of the most popular games of all time involve making choices. Even a simple game like Connect Four is all about where you choose to put your counters.

Even though I’m not what you’d call a typical teenager, at sixteen, the last thing anyone wants or needs is for anything or anyone to cause them to stand out from the crowd. A bodyguard, which I do not want or need, would do just that.

Dalla caduta nel mondo dell'ovvio viene salvata grazie all'intervento del bislacco filosofo Alberto Knox, con i suoi messaggi recapitati dal cane Hermes, i travestimenti, i quesiti apparentemente senza senso e le metafore esilaranti.

In 1966 in a small town in Louisiana, a 19-year-old Black man named Gary Duncan pulled his car off the road to stop a fight. Duncan was arrested a few minutes later for the crime of putting his hand on the arm of a White child. Rather than accepting his fate, Duncan found Richard Sobol, a brilliant, 29-year-old lawyer from New York who was the only White attorney at "the most radical law firm" in New Orleans. Against them stood one of the most powerful white supremacists in the South, a man called simply "The Judge".
