  *Wage-Labour and Capital* by Karl Marx is a foundational text in Marxist economic theory that explores the exploitative dynamics of capitalist societies. Originally delivered as a series of lectures, the work delves into the relationship between wage laborers and capitalists, emphasizing how workers sell their labor power for wages that merely sustain their existence, while the capitalists appropriate the surplus value created by the workers. Marx unpacks the mechanisms of capital accumulation, the commodification of labor, and the inherent inequalities that sustain the capitalist system. Serving as a precursor to his seminal work *Das Kapital*, this concise and accessible text provides a critical framework for understanding the economic forces underpinning modern industrial society and the cyclical crises that arise from its contradictions.

  The universe wakes up through you. 
  We see history as an unceasing flow of causality and time; an endless series of past events leading up to the present. We feel ourselves as the detached observers of it, somehow standing on the outside watching the world go by. But the truth is we’re not on the outside. We’re at the very center of it all. 
  Interweaving history, mythology, psychology, and mystical experience, author John Payne charts the journey of I from its Paleolithic origins through the emergence of language and literacy, forward through the worldviews of the Greeks and Hebrews, and on to the present time. 
  The premise of this book is that the Universe’s most sincere project is the creation of a self-reflection point called I. Climbing up out of the universe’s primordia using the rungs of matter, animal biology and cultural enterprises such as myth, religion, literacy and science, Consciousness has constricted itself to a place two inches behind your forehead. 
  And it has been waiting for you to wake up.

  As we see the catastrophic effects of the Anthropocene proliferate, advanced technologies also grant us greater access to the furthest reaches of the world's oceans, facilitating the discovery of countless new species. Stacy Alaimo explores the influence this newfound intimacy with the deep sea might have on our broader relationship to the nonhuman world. While many images of these abyssal creatures circulate as shallow clickbait, aesthetic representations can be enticing lures for speculating about their lives. 
   
  The Abyss Stares Back analyzes a diverse range of scientific, literary, and artistic accounts of deep-sea exploration. As she focuses on oft-overlooked creatures of the deep, Alaimo shows how depictions of the deep seas have been enmeshed in long colonial histories and racist constructions of a threatening abyss. 
   
  Drawing on feminist environmentalism, posthumanism, science and technology studies, and Indigenous and non-Western perspectives, Alaimo details how our understanding of science is fundamentally altered by aesthetic encounters with these otherworldly life forms. She argues that, although the deep sea is often thought of as a lifeless void, our increasing devastation of this realm underscores our ethical obligation to protect the biodiverse life in the depths. When the abyss stares back, it demands recognition.

  Farhad, overwhelmed by excessive drinking, escapes the party and takes refuge in the bathroom. Ahmad, Farhad's close friend, joins him there. Both prefer the solitude of the bathroom over the celebration outside, choosing to spend their time in isolation. Ahmad believes the reason their friendship and deep bond have endured since adolescence is "honesty” and “transparency”. However, as they go through their past reflecting on their memories, signs such as mood swings, lack of focus, emotional instability, and particularly drowsiness, exacerbated by alcohol, begin to surface, reshaping their bond in their middle age. Unaware, the party is nearing its end, and the sun is beginning to rise.
