How casinos build addictive machines and infrastructures, to perpetuate pathological behaviour for profits at the expense of our behaviour and autonomy

How as humans we can take advantage of narratives that drive the stock market to capitalise on our gains and avoid losses in the stock market.
Take a minute and look around you, everything from your lamps, computer and chairs are all products of a need, a certain demand that is sold through the narratives that we are told and tell ourselves. Narratives are not only purely stories, on the extreme scale narratives pave the way to fluctuations and the unpredictability on the stock market.

Will Disney ever recover from the pandemic? and be as healthy as before? or will it close for bankruptcy?
The Global Pandemic, is a story unique to every person you ask, a multiple story essay that disrupts society in so many fundamentally different aspects on whatever stage.

There are also instances of personhood being lean to human disabilities while scrutinising animals who are smarter and more able to do things.But …
How Digital media and politics are creating a bigger divide and polarized World than ever.
Poor, inefficient and uncivilised is what most people would attribute to tribalism when you ask them. However these words are not only merely exclusive to an eccentric idea such as tribalism, politics initsef that has grown increasingly polarized.
