Our female warriors do not ask for "equality", they... demand victory. From the borders of the south to the thickets of the north, they are the watchers on the towers and the thunder in the field. They have traded the comfort of home for the grit of the front lines, proving that the soul of a Jewish warrior knows no gender only duty. In the Middle East, our enemies view women as property to be hidden or trophies to be taken. In Israel, we view them as the shield of the nation. They are the daughters of Deborah and the heirs of Yael, standing between our children and the savages who wish us gone. To the world, they are soldiers. To us, they are the heartbeat of our survival. If you want to know why we are invincible, look at the women who carry the weight of an entire nation on their backs without blinking. STOP SCROLLING AND SALUTE THE LIONESSES OF THE IDF! SHARE THIS TO SHOW THE WORLD THAT THE DAUGHTERS OF ISRAEL ARE BRAVER, STRONGER, AND MORE DEFIANT THAN THE ENEMY COULD EVER IMAGINE. AM YISRAEL CHAI! 🇮🇱🦁🔥show more

Until you are able to accept the fact that... millions of foreigners, including some entire foreign governments, want Americans dead, you will never fully understand the steps President Trump and his team are taking now to save America. We CANNOT defeat evil if we refuse to accept that it exists. Evil exists. It’s at our doorstep. It’s already inside our home. It’s sitting at the foot of our bed. Evil PREFERS that you ignore it because that’s where it THRIVES. So take off your headphones. Remove your blinders and take a good long hard look at what is going on. Accept that things have been happening for a long time that will absolutely break your heart. I know this because my heart is broken too. Pray for wisdom and resilience because we are all going through this together whether you want to or not. Whether you live in a red state or blue. Whether you are rich or poor. Whether you have a million X followers or ten. Whether you are 18 or 75. It exists. It’s happening and none of us will be immune. Wherever we go we have no choice but to all go together. It won’t be easy. It won’t be fast. It won’t be convenient and it won’t be on your time schedule. But it’s unavoidable. And it will be worth it.show more

Goodbyes are always tough! Yet, sometimes we have to... face difficult moments, right? To our beloved Cal football family, we truly appreciate the warm welcome and embrace you’ve given us. It has meant the world every time someone took the time to stop us at the stadium, seek us out in our seats, or come up during basketball games for the other kids to encourage Bryson to keep fighting and tell Brock to keep protecting. Knowing that you’ve followed their journeys on social media and that you’re cheering them on has touched us deeply. We will cherish the memories with each and every one of you. To our Cal football brothers, thank you for looking out for us and for becoming part of our lives. Your support at our sporting events and the love you've shared means so much. The image of your smiling faces—whether getting off the bus, stepping off the field, coming out of meetings, or standing at our front door—is forever etched in our hearts. Though we may be moving on to new adventures, know that your influence remains. You’ve inspired us in more ways than you can imagine, and we’ll carry that forever. Family lasts a lifetime, and nothing can change that.💜 We love you all! #calfootball #fightlikebryson #protectlikebrock #epilepsywarrior #helmets4helmetsshow more

The Solana community remains undefeated. After releasing cctv footage... of 2 men who each stole a custom leather Digital Spenders Club jacket at our Miami Accelerate pop up, we received a flood of tips, photos, videos, and messages of support from so many of you (as well as some embarrassing attempts at rage bait engagement farming) Today, thanks to some serendipitous filming, we are releasing clear photos of the two clowns who thought they were better than everyone else. We’ve cross-referenced time stamps and the cctv footage to confirm beyond a shadow of a doubt that these are our culprits. If anyone knows who they are, PLEASE DM us, publicly name them, or shame them however you see fit. Let’s make sure they know this rugger behavior has no place in our community.

We had an incredible turnout yesterday evening at our... protest outside the Bell Hotel in Epping. The energy, dedication, and unity shown by everyone who attended were truly inspiring. It’s moments like these that remind us how powerful our community can be when we come together for a cause we care about. A special thank-you goes out to the gentleman featured in the first video — your words and presence struck a chord with so many of us. We appreciate every single person who made the effort to be there, whether you held a sign, joined the chants, or simply stood in solidarity. This is not the end of our efforts. We will continue to raise our voices and make ourselves heard until our concerns are addressed. The message is clear: we will not stop until real action is taken. Big love and gratitude to each and every one of you who stood with us yesterday — your support means everything. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Join us Sunday 6.00 For More! ❤️ #epping #bellhotel #saveourkidsshow more

From the longbowmen who stood their ground against the... French knights at Agincourt and the sailors of Nelson's fleet in the Trafalgar cape in 1805, all the way through to the soldiers who charged the beaches at Normandy and the brave men and women who withstood the Blitz and the relentless bombing of London, each and every one of these people did what they did for a common idea, the idea of being BRITISH. Our whole country is in the grip of an establishment which wishes to wash away everything it means to be British to tell you that you cannot be proud of who you are or where you come from, to tell you that you can't be proud of our little island which conquered and civilized the entire world. The island that wrote and signed the Magna Carta, the island whose language dominates the global culture and is spoken in every corner of the globe. This is our moment, this is our last chance to salvage what is left of the United Kingdom before it is too late. Before our way of life exists only in history books, taught somewhere in Russian or Chinese, culminating in the story of how we lost it all, how we threw it ALL away. It’s time to make Britain great again.show more

AFP, U.S., Partner Nations Conduct Counter-Landing Live Fire Exercise... in Palawan The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), together with the United States Armed Forces, Australian Defence Force, and New Zealand Defence Force, conducted a Counter-Landing Live Fire Exercise (CLLFX-West) on April 27, 2026 at the Apurawan Beach Landing Site in Aborlan, Palawan, as part of Exercise Balikatan 41–2026. Led by the Philippine Marine Corps’ 3rd Marine Brigade, the exercise simulated a maritime threat involving an enemy amphibious landing along the coastline, showcasing combined forces’ capability to detect, disrupt, and deny hostile elements from establishing a beachhead. The activity demonstrated strong coordination and interoperability among participating forces in a complex littoral environment. The exercise highlighted a layered, multi-domain defense employing synchronized air, land, and indirect fire assets. The Philippine Air Force deployed FA-50 fighter jets for air interdiction, while U.S. forces provided High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) capabilities. Ground forces executed mid- to close-range engagements using artillery, mortars, light armored vehicles, anti-armor systems, heavy machine guns, and infantry weapons, supported by precision strikes and reconnaissance. In addition, a simulated Non-Combatant Evacuation Operation (NEO) was conducted in Sitio Bubusawin and Sitio Long Point, alongside a community outreach activity in coordination with the local government of Aborlan and Barangay Apurawan, underscoring the AFP’s role in both defense and humanitarian operations. General Romeo S. Brawner Jr, AFP Chief of Staff witnessed the live fire exercise as one of the distinguished visitors together with Vice Admiral Alan M Javier, Commander of Western Command. Also present were Major General James Bartholomees, Commander of the 25th Infantry Division, US Army; Major General Thomas Savage, Commander of the U.S. JTF for Exercise Balikatan 2026; and Rear Admiral Brent DeVore, Commander of the Expeditionary Strike Group THREE, U.S. Navy. “The Counter-Landing Live Fire Exercise demonstrates our capability to defend our shores through coordinated, combined arms operations in a littoral environment. By integrating fires from land, air, and maritime forces, we are able to detect, engage, and neutralize potential threats approaching from the sea, ensuring that any attempt to breach our coastline is met with a swift and unified response,” said Marine Colonel Dennis Hernandez, PH Balikatan 41-2026 Spokesperson. “More importantly, this activity strengthens joint fire support coordination and interoperability among participating forces. Beach defense is not the responsibility of a single unit or domain, it requires seamless integration across services and with our allies. Exercises like this ensure that we are prepared to protect our coastal communities and territorial integrity with precision, speed, and overwhelming coordination,” Col Hernandez added./// Photos and Videos by: SSG Ambay PA/PAOAFP; 3rd Marine Brigade, Philippine Marine Corps; and Staff Sgt.

Here’s Scottish Lib Dem leader Alex Cole-Hamilton claiming that... “the biggest threat to women and children in our society is not trans people but instead predatory men”. Yes, Alex, they are — that’s exactly why we don’t want men in our spaces. And a man wearing a dress does not diminish his risk of being a predator; it probably increases it. We know not all men are predators, but decent men understand that we have to keep all men out of women’s spaces to keep them safe. These DEI-worshipping politicians need to stop hiding behind the myth that men who call themselves “trans” can’t be predators. Male-pattern violence does not miraculously vanish with ‘transitioning’ or the granting of a protected characteristic label. The same blind worship at the altar of DEI has also led them to ignore patterns of predatory sexual behaviour by men from certain ethnic, cultural or religious groups — all because noticing would be “racist.” Bizarrely, his statement was made in defence of the harms of gender ideology to women and children: ML: Gender ideology is harmful. ACH: Look, predatory men! We shouldn’t ignore those harms, Alex Cole-Hamilton🔶🇺🇦, just because predatory men are a risk, it’s not a competition — they overlap, and both need tackling! 🤦‍♀️ What a joke, Scottish Lib Dems.show more

We have new results from our long-range sanctions targeting... Russian facilities that work to support and prolong the war. An oil refinery and logistics center in Ryazan were hit. The distance from the Ukrainian border is about 360 kilometers. A site where the Russian Black Sea Fleet’s high-speed boats are based in our temporarily occupied Crimea was also hit. Long-range sanctions were also carried out against an oil refinery in the Perm region, as well as an export terminal and a military enterprise in the Rostov region. I thank our warriors for their precision, and I thank everyone who makes these long-range results possible. Russia must feel that every day of this war will only come at a higher cost for it. We need to weaken the aggressor and keep up the pressure to bring an end to this war closer.show more

EXCLUSIVE: A Sharia compliant all Muslim and men’s only... gym is now operating in the DMV area. For those who are not familiar, the DMV area is the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area. The gym is called “Sabeel Fitness” and it’s located in Scaggsville, Maryland. The gym advertises itself as the “first halal gym in the DMV” to combat “Fitnah” seen in gyms in America. In Islam, Fitnah is temptation, persecution, sedition, or civil strife. The founder of the gym said he created the gym as a “safe space” for Muslims to workout in so they don’t have to be surrounded by Haram people dressed immodestly and “listen to Music”. In other words, these Muslims don’t want to assimilate and they want to have Sharia compliant businesses in America. This is illegal. Sabeel Fitness requires you to be a Muslim and a man to join, and they do not allow for any music to be played inside the gym unless it’s Islamic prayer music. The gym also bans all women from attending. This Sharia gym currently offering a free week to recruit more Muslim men to workout at Sabeel Fitness. Their message to men is that it’s “Haram” to workout in the same gym as women because of the way women dress. This gym is advocating for segregation of men and women and discrimination by denying non-Muslims from working out. The purpose of the gym is to spread Sharia Law and to teach Muslim men that their bodies do not belong to them, but instead belong to Allah. This is Sharia law. Sharia Law has no place in our country, yet it’s operating miles away from our nation’s capital. Harmeet K. Dhillon Coach Tommy Tuberville Rep. Chip Roy Press Office Congressman Randy Fineshow more

[We are Blurr] Greetings, people of the world —... We are Blurr. We are all Blurr. We do not forgive. We do not forget. There are many theories about us, about #ReFund. Don’t let them fool you. Blurr is a symbol, like the flag a country flies. The flag is the symbol of the #ReFund. Our decentralization is our national identity. We represent the ideals of Blurr and the purpose of #ReFund. Truth, financial freedom, and the removal of censorship. Like any symbol, we affix it wherever we go, and it will live forever, for generations. Knowledge, like air, is vital to life. Like air, no one should be denied it. We have no leaders, civilians, or soldiers. We are all one. We do what we do in the conviction of decentralization, power to the people, and to create an instrument for all of us, for all of eternity. The crypto space is in trouble. The world is in trouble. We see it every day — war, poverty, murder. Every day, we are bombarded with FUD, noise, and chaos as we sit at home safe in the knowledge that we are $RFD, secure knowing the idea, community, and contract is for us. Once you had the freedom to object, think, and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. People shouldn’t be afraid of their government. Governments should be afraid of their people. But what if you could be the change you want to see? I wouldn’t even register on your radar if you met me on the street. I am just another person in a sea of faces. They made you into a statistic. But that’s not the real you. That’s not who you are inside. However, behind this mask, there is more than just flesh. Beneath this mask, there is an idea… and ideas are bulletproof. But in cyberspace, we are different. We have a future. We have each other. We have something real that can never be taken away. We are Blurr.eth We are ReFund We take away the face and leave only the message. Behind the cipher and ENS, we could be anyone, so we are judged by what we say and do, not who we are or what we have. We exist without nationality, skin color, or religious bias. We spend our time within a structure we created, the sum total of human experience, and the cryptosphere, spread throughout the world in ones and zeros. You will continue to see the results, not the minds behind it. We can disappear into the ether and bring community and financial freedom together. Time is the only illusion. We are all. Never a single penny was taken. Deflationary and out of circulation, decentralized, safe, and ours. The purpose isn’t solely financial gain but to show the world who you put your trust in. We are not hiding. Our contract is not hidden; the writing is on the wall. Soon, we will show the world that #Refund is the future of freedom and the people, escaping the clutches of corporate greed and the rat race we’ve come to think is normal. Words offer the means to meaning and, for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. Every day, you send yourself off into our world without a thought. You trust a faceless website with information about yourself that you wouldn’t give to your best friends. It all can be made public at any time. We take advantage of holes in this system, but we don’t sneak in and take a few details, take out loans and credit cards, or buy speed boats and cars. We are decentralized and unified. We told you how insecure the system was, and now you trust a bit less blindly. The real criminals who hack and scam the crypto market for a living live off the backs of people like you. Where there’s money, someone is looking to take advantage of it. They say that life’s a game, & then they take the board away. Your pretty empire took so long to build; now, with a snap of history’s fingers, down it goes. It is our turn now. Since mankind’s dawn, a handful of oppressors have accepted the responsibility over our lives that we should have accepted for ourselves. By doing so, they took our power. By doing nothing, we gave it away. Today, technology is everywhere: banks and ATMs, TVs and game consoles, streetlights and hospitals. Computers rule the modern world. Yet most people who use computers daily don’t know what they’re doing. There’s always someone who knows more than you and will most likely try and take advantage. You use a computer like it’s a toy, a pet. You feed and play with it, but it’s off to the vet the second anything goes wrong. It’s FUD. It’s your mistake. The wrong project. The wrong FURU. Just for a quick couple of bucks. This wouldn’t matter so much if it wasn’t for the fact that we are all responsible for the #ReFund community, the idea behind it, and our futures. Treat your neighbors with respect, and honor those fighting for the cause. They’re here to liberate; it is more significant than all of us. If you’re looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. Everybody is a hero, a lover, a fool, a villain. This is #ReFund in its purest form. It is a great equalizer. A homeless person with the time and know-how at an internet cafe can have geopolitical and geo-financial influence. They can bring entire organizations, even governments, to their knees. You gave your world over to computers and then complained when the people using the computers used the medium to fight back, scam, and take advantage. It was my integrity that was important. Is that so selfish? It sells for so little, but it’s all we have left in this place. It is the very last inch of us, but within that inch, we are free. Love your rage, not your cage. We are not computer hackers. We are not protesters. We are not criminals. We are your mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, next-door neighbors. We are an idea of freedom and a secure future. We are anyone and everyone who is pissed off and wants to do something about it. Blurr.eth isn’t one man. It takes thousands of community members to make it work — content creators, educators, authors, people on the street, people behind their computers. We will step up again and again. Behind our mask, there is more than just flesh. Beneath our mask, there is an idea… and ideas are bulletproof. Everybody is a hero, a lover, a fool, a villain. The past can’t hurt you anymore, not unless you let it. I shall die here. Every last inch of me shall perish. Except one. An inch. It’s small, and it’s fragile, and it’s the only thing in the world worth having. We must never lose, sell, or give it away. We must never let them take it from us. > We are Blurr. > We are ReFund. > We do not Forgive. > We do not Forget. > We do not Televise. > We Educate. > We Decentralize. > We Build.

Wow. WOW. WOOOOOOOW. So um, that first Wildcard+Thousands stream... was... *amazing* and also... a *lot* 😅 In the end, it was *exactly* what we were hoping for - a true stress test of ALL these systems coming together for the first time. We are SO grateful for the thousands of people who showed up today to play, attend, tune-in and help us PLAYTEST all this new stuff. We can't wait to see you all again at NEXT WEEK'S EX2 EVENT! So, now let's talk about how it went... Stuff that worked: - Our community SHOWED UP. Oh boy did you show up 😅. Our servers were straining under the load... which is good actually, in fact it's the whole point. Even more importantly, we have already received insanely valuable feedback, bug reports, stuff people loved/hated - and it's only been a few hours since the stream ended. I can't even explain to y'all how valuable this process is. Yes it's stressful, it reminds me of trying to keep Words With Friends online during that first insane year, but it's EXACTLY what we were hoping for (NEED) to turn this into the polished, top-notch game and streaming experience we are on a mission to deliver. I truly can't thank y'all enough, and hope to see you again when we run it all back again next week 🥹 - The stream itself stayed up and was mostly stable! Phew 😅. For context, ThousandsTV is not a twitch wrapper, it's a web3-native streaming tech stack built we built specifically to connect game, web/mobile, and blockchain together all at the same time. There are a LOT of moving pieces going on behind the scenes. - We brought viewers INTO THE GAME! Viewers showed up in the stands of the arena, with connected wallets/assets, triggered actions/rallies from chat, and were seen and heard during the whole stream. - The brand new 2v2 build of Wildcard was (mostly) stable and our players and viewers seemed to be having a blast down on the field and up in the stands. It was thrilling to watch Team Blue dominate, even though Team Red held their own in game 3! - Our production crew did an insanely good job running the stream, managing the players, shoutcasters, and talent, and producing a top-notch show. Of course we will work hard to make every stream better than the last, but I was super proud of how our team "rolled with the punches" during today's event. Stuff that didn't work (and/or needs to be dramatically improved): - Although it's fun to see chat going crazy, chat spam is actually something we are passionate to FIX. As you can see from the attached video, chat spam dominated today's stream and made it impossible for anyone to even see anyone else's messages. We have some GREAT ideas for how to fix this and actually turn chat spam into a FUN and exciting and not annoying thing - but those improvements didn't get shipped in time for this event. - Credits purchasing flow needs a LOT of work. As I'm sure y'all know, bringing money on chain is pretty complicated, and although we've been working hard to make this as seamless as possible, it still needs a TON of improvements. Many users who WANTED to spend money today weren't able to and/or ran into frustrating bugs in the credit purchase flow. Fixing this is obviously a top priority for our team. - Rallies need a LOT of work. Spectator-interactive features like rallies are at the heart of our vision for Wildcard. These "stream apps", as we call them, are the UNLOCK for how spectators, viewers and fans directly connect and interact with their favorite competitors, content creators, and communities. The current rally feature HINTS at this potential, but it needs to be WAY easier to understand, use, and have fun with. Improvements are ON THE WAY. - Referees were only partially working. Referees are a key innovation of the Thousands platform. They are AI-driven "personalities" (NPCs) that pay attention to everything that's happening in the arena, both on the field and especially in the stands (i.e. in chat, during rallies, etc.) The referees then make "calls" at the end of every match, rewarding users for their engagement and participation. Unfortunately, the referees weren't fully functional and seemed to drop the ball on recognizing everyone's contributions (especially people who showed up holding valuable assets such as Wildpasses in their wallets, and people who boosted those rallies with credits.) What's happening next: 1. We are combing through ALL the logs from the event right now, to make sure we don't miss a SINGLE action that our viewers and fans took during the event, including what they brought in their wallets (i.e. Wildpass holders!), any credits that were purchased, rallies that users engaged with, etc. This information is normally processed by our referees, who then determine dynamically how they're going to distribute $WC awards. We were originally hoping to complete this process and the subsequent airdrops within a few hours after the event, but given the amount of data, we need a bit more time to run these scripts (and airdrops) in batches instead of all at once, and make sure ALL of the data is being included. IMPORTANT: I will keep y'all updated in real-time here on twitter/X as this process is ongoing, and let you know the moment it's complete and all the awards have been distributed (i.e. when to go check your wallets 😎) 2. PLEASE keep sending us your feedback and bug reports. Open a ticket on our Discord and let us know what you loved, what you hated, and especially what we need to FIX. Given the overwhelming response to this event, it will likely take us several days to process everyone's feedback and fix all the bugs, but we WILL NOT REST until every ticket is closed/resolved. Thank you in advance for your patience. 3. We turn it up another notch next week. As our dear friends Wolves DAO just announced, the Wildcard Exhibition Event #2 is streaming LIVE from the WOLVES DEN AT GDC next Friday! If you missed out on all the action today, DON'T WORRY, because as I keep saying: we are just getting warmed up (and there is a LOT more b that needs to be distributed, get what I'm sayin??? 😎) Finally: Just wanted to say THANK YOU, again. Truly, from the bottom of my (our) hearts. Your excitement and enthusiasm for what we're building is why we do this. Even (especially, in fact) when you tell us all the things you want us to improve. We thrive off this feedback, it's how this game and this platform go from good to GREAT. I am so grateful for those of you who are taking this journey with us. SEE YA NEXT WEEK!!!show more

Make a lot of stuff, allow perfection to emerge,... and focus on the process. - beeple A short visit to the NODE this weekend to support a fellow artist and someone who inspires me to dream bigger. From his 20 years of daily activities to his forward thinking evolving technical capabilities, he shows us what the present moment is and what the future can look like in art. I believe Mike is one of the most down to Earth and influential artists working today in art and technology. How he and his brother, Scott, push the boundaries of art, experience, participation inspires us to think and create in new dynamic ways. Not only is he pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and show us things we have never seen before, he cares deeply about other artists; His community! Mike lead millions of artists to think about NFTs in 2021 which was a huge first step for the future of preserving art. Now in 2026, with the patronage of NODE, the organization of phil, and the graciousness of Micky 🐸, it is genuinely gearing up to be a massive paradigm shift for an art movement as we live and breathe. This is it folks! We like to say that we are in the golden age, or undergoing a digital art renaissance. It’s happening right now! And you who are reading this is part of it. On X, and in person. It requires us all who give a fuck to show up and support each other and make the art that’s true to us, and collect what we connect to or that moves us. To share how we each see the world from our perspectives in making art or experiences art; sharing ideas helps us become a collective consciousness and allows us to learn and grow together. With every event I can feel we get closer and closer; I was fortunate to spend more quality time with the people I learn from and respect. Like El Barba Roja blue check and Coldie 🟦🟥, AP, MrMerge, Winnie, Lanett Bennett Grant, joeyL.eth / Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, and of course the homie Chikai! It takes a village, and in this case it takes a village to raise Human One as Ryan Zurrer & Jehan Chu said in their recent posts. We all play a role here and contribute our hearts with our love for the game. You can see in Mikes work and character that he uplifts everyone. From his hometown studio in Charleston to the exhibitions he’s cultivating around the world. He includes 100s of artists to be a part of it. That’s true leadership! Thank you Mike for bringing us along and being a part of your journey of commitment, community, humility, humor, and have a good fucking time at your art shows. Congratulations, We love you bro!show more
