Here I am sharing some interesting books I have read. Home to Biloela by Priya Nadesalingam and Rebekah Holt The Nadesalingam family captured the hearts of Australians as they were taken from their home in Biloela and placed into detention in 2018, and fought with the government who made multiple attempts to deport them. With the support of a small group in Biloela and people around the country, they made it back home. In this book, Priya shares her story, from her childhood in Sri Lanka, to making a new life in Australia, her marriage to Nades and birth of their daughters, Kopica and Tharnicaa, and the efforts to prevent the family from being deported.  Charles III, The Inside Story by Robert Hardman  This book is an insightful and intimate look at the first year of King Charles' reign.

Photo from ABC America and the world is in shock after the attempted assassination of Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday. The presidential candidate was delivering a campaign speech when shots were fired, hitting him in the ear and causing the crowd to scream.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion but that is taking it too far.  First of all, there is no place for any type of violence. It is never the answer and should be condemned. There is ...

Today, I am sharing an interesting post I read on Reddit about TikTok gifts. If you use TikTok and send gifts to creators in their live streams, definitely give this a read.  STOP GIFTING BIG CREATORS ON TIKTOK!!!!!! - Posted by Reddit user  Jhardill94 If you send gifts on Tik Tok to people who battle on Live all day, this is for you. Think to yourself, how much money do you make per year? What do you have to do in order to make that money? Do you have really nice things like expensive cars, big house, tons in savings while traveling the world on vacation? The people you gift do. If not, why are you sending gifts to 20 YEAR OLDS MAKING THEM RICH???For those of you who don’t know, every 100,000 coins a creator gets, they profit $500 while TikTok (owned by China) takes the other $500(50/50 split). Remember that math next time you’re on TikTok and click on “daily/weekly rankings” to see how many coins everyone has by the end of the night. If you take a look at the rankings each n...
