He's neither the oppressor nor the privileged, nor does he bask in the halo of hierarchy. Just an unfortunate boy, selling his wares on a train to survive. Yet, sadly, for the state, he's not a priority, for neither his caste nor his story draws the gaze of those in authority.
Poverty doesn't discriminate between Social standing or class. It simply weaves its shadow across all.

Trilobites
๐ News:
A recent study revealed that a trilobite species with exceptionally well preserved fossils from upstate New York has an additional set of legs beneath its head.
๐ About Trilobites:
Trilobites are an extinct group of marine arthropods. Their name, derived from Latin, means "three-part body."
๐Physical Features:
๐Trilobites are easily identified by their three-lobed, three-segmented body.
๐ Like other arthropods, trilobites had a chitinous external skeleton called an
exoskeleton, which they shed periodically through molting to grow. Most fossilized trilobites are, in fact, their molted exoskeletons
๐They were the first known animals to develop complex eyes and one of the earliest organisms to evolve multiple appendages for movement

Around 252 million years ago, the world suddenly heated up.
Over a geologically brief period of tens of thousands of years, 90% of species were wiped out.
Even insects, which are rarely touched by such events, suffered catastrophic losses. The Permian-Triassic mass extinction, as itโs known, was the greatest of the โbig fiveโ mass extinctions in Earthโs history.
