When WordPress 5.0 was released in late 2018, it came with a brand-spankin’-new block editor known as Gutenberg. In contrast to the Classic Editor, which was far more reliant on manual code, the block editor offers a modular approach to page and post editing making each piece of content in the editor—from a paragraph to an image gallery to a headline— its own editing block.  WordPress presents a larger barrier to entry for some, and the Gutenberg Editor was created to make building and updating site content easier.

Why the Aliens Have No Interest in Disclosing to Us

Beside the fact that they could be having some kind of mutual tolerance or non military interference treaty in place with some of our governments, it's very understandable why it's not in their interest to disclose to us, not even with our governments or military elites.We humans rage, panic and resort to violence easily, we deceive and sometimes enjoy the process.We do crazy stuff to helpless beings when we feel in power, and contemporary history is full of such examples.We evolved in technology but still have a tribal attitude when it . . .

Scariest Thing That Ever Happened to Me

To begin, this happened about ten years ago and I've only ever told this to a few people face to face.Most people think it's a tall tale.It was honestly one of the most unsettling things that has ever happened to me and changed me from a condescending sceptic into somewhat of a believer.Background.When I was a 22 year old second year uni student (no drink, no drugs) living in the Stoke area of the U-K.I rented an old middle terrace house in second year with my then girlfriend and some friends.It was a creepy and dark house as it only had window . . .
