Stories and News No. 1181   Once upon a time there was a planet. Let's talk about it as if we were in a science fiction story. One of those that we consider improbable and that sometimes we use to relax, like catastrophic movies or those fails videos, and everyone laughs. Because we are not the ones who fall. The planet was very bizarre and the creatures were no less, compactly consistent in defining the common horizon on the basis of a questionable assumption: the relationship of cause and effect is outdated, since what really matters is the latter.

And when surviving involves running away from something, of which one is completely innocent, what will come out from that will be good, and so for everyone.
