🚨 TRUMP COULD DEVASTATE IRAN IN ONE NIGHT The IRGC has BIG reasons to panic right now! "A couple precision strikes on Kharg Island's loading terminals and pipelines — and their whole ECONOMY CRATERS and can't be fixed without a DEAL." 🔥 "Iran's economy could be about to crash. Treasury says in a matter of DAYS, Kharg Island's oil storage will be full and oil wells will be forced to shut. That's when you do damage!" "You can't just cap it, flip a switch, and pump it back out. The president says, quote, once those wells go down, sometimes they're down for good, can never operate again." "90% of their crude comes out of there, over one and a half million barrels a day." "The president isn't going to lift the blockade until they hand over the uranium, and the blockade is about to get extremely painful. Trump says, quote, people approached me four days ago saying, sir, Iran wants to open up the strait immediately. But if we do that, there can never be a deal with Iran unless we blow up the rest of their country, their leaders included." — Jesse Watters

I'd like to say a few more words about Shane, because whenever people talk about him, the first thing that usually comes up is that he's autistic. But if there's one thing Heated Rivalry makes clear, it's that Shane is so much more than that. Yes, autism is part of who he is - it shapes his sensitivity and influences some of his reactions and behaviors - but it doesn't define him. Shane is complex, multi-layered, and authentic. First and foremost, Shane is a successful athlete, a beloved son, a loyal friend, and a young man questioning his own identity, fighting to find the courage to be himself. He's competitive and introverted, sometimes awkward in social situations, yet gifted with an emotional intelligence that's rare. Just look at how he notices when Ilya is struggling, or how his care for him comes through even without words. For Shane, loving someone means understanding what they're feeling, even when they can't put it into words. That's why he asks Ilya to speak in Russian, though he knows he won't understand the language. What matters isn't the literal meaning, but the sense of emotional safety that moment creates. Words matter, of course, but for Shane, what matters even more is what words can offer: a pause, a connection, a chance for honesty. Shane is also stubborn and determined, capable of dreaming big and brave enough to face his fears, one step at a time. That's why I believe we can never reduce a person's complexity to a single word. Shane's autism isn't an obstacle to overcome, nor a dramatic burden put on display. It's simply one of the many shades that make him who he is, alongside his passion for hockey, his love of reading, his shyness, and his ability to let life surprise him. Maybe the most beautiful thing about Shane Hollander is this: he's not meant to be a symbol, a lesson, or an example. He's a guy who feels deeply, who needs order to stay grounded, and who loves with his whole heart. Watching him grow, make mistakes, fall in love, stumble, and get back up again is a precious reminder that being autistic is just one part of a person. But being Shane - with all his uniqueness and courage - is something truly special. And I believe that's true for all of us.

EMIBONNIE PUT IT BACK ON #HotwaveKRUBxEmiBonnie 🦊: Why did you choose this song ("ภาพที่สวยที่สุด (The Most Beautiful Image)" by Ink Waruntorn), Bonnie? 🐰: It's a song that I feel encapsulates this period of my life. 🦊: This period. 🐰: We get to work with each other and– this line. I like this part. 🎵: That very first image of you smiling at me the first time we met, The image of you clapping for me when I sang for you, The image of you laughing and crying together with me, I'm going to keep them with me forever. 🦊: 🥺 🦊: (hits Bonnie's hand and holds onto her arm) 🦊: Crazy, don't 🥺 🐰: (looking at Emi and smiling) 🦊: I didn't know you chose this song. It's my first time listening to it. 🐰: Hey, don't cry~ 🎵: I want to keep the image of our story in this moment, I want to preserve this in my memories to record how precious it was, I want to hold on to the image of how deeply we once loved each other, This most beautiful image before my eyes, I'll keep it in my heart, never to be forgotten. 🦊: You chose a really good song. 🦊: I've got goosebumps. 🐰: If I get a chance, I'd like to sing this song too. 🦊: Hoyyy, I can't stop getting goosebumps. 🐰: It's... 🦊: It's a good song, isn't it? It has a really nice meaning. 🐰: The meaning of that line is like, that's exactly it. 🦊: Can I listen to it again? I want to listen to that line again. 🦊: That song is amazing (hugs Bonnie). 🐰: Don't cry~ 🦊: That's a really wonderful song. You chose a great song. I thought you said you didn't know what song to choose. You're full of seeds.* 🐰: I just chose it. 🦊: You just chose it? It's really a wonderful song. 🐰: It's a song that conveys my feelings. 🦊: Every word? 🐰: Yes. It's the most beautiful time of my life and I want to preserve it forever. 🦊: Wow, I've got goosebumps. This is truly a beautiful song. * Having a lot of seeds is Thai slang that means keeping secrets, or being fussy and complicated, or someone who likes beating around the bush.

Learned something about Bees Today. A male bee mates for less than 5 seconds in midair. The ejaculation is so explosive you can hear it pop from a few feet away. His body rips in half. He falls dead before hitting the ground. And he is one of the lucky males in the hive. When a male bee, called a drone, chases down a queen mid-flight at speeds of 22 miles per hour, his entire reproductive organ turns inside out. The pressure required for this comes from nearly all the blood in his body, which rushes downward to force the organ outward like a spring. The semen fires into the queen with so much force it makes the audible pop. The organ then snaps off and stays lodged inside her like a cork. As he flips backward off her body, his abdomen rips open. The next drone waiting his turn has to physically yank out the dead male's cork before he can mate. The same thing then happens to him. The queen does this 12 to 20 times in a single afternoon. She flies up to a spot in the sky that beekeepers call a drone congregation area. Picture an invisible meeting point about 50 to 130 feet above the ground where up to 11,000 male bees from as many as 240 different hives are hovering, waiting for her. These spots stay in the exact same locations year after year, sometimes for over a decade. No one fully understands how brand new drones, born only weeks earlier, find them. By the end of her mating run, the queen has collected around 100 million sperm cells. She keeps only 5 to 6 million in a tiny internal storage organ that keeps them alive for years. From that supply, she uses just two sperm cells per egg for the rest of her life, laying up to 2,000 eggs a day for 2 to 7 years. After that one afternoon in the sky, she will never mate again. A 2019 study from UC Riverside, the University of Copenhagen, and the University of Western Australia found that bee semen contains toxic proteins that temporarily blind the queen by interfering with how vision genes function in her brain. If she can't see well, she can't fly out again to mate with more males. Their semen also carries a separate protein that attacks and kills sperm cells from rival drones still inside her. The males keep competing long after every one of them is dead. The 99.9% of drones who never get to mate have it worse. As autumn arrives, the female worker bees in the hive stop feeding their brothers, then drag them out of the entrance after biting off their wings. The drones can't fly back in. They starve or freeze in the grass within days. The colony raises a fresh batch of disposable males the next spring, and the whole cycle starts over.

Donald Trump’s obsession with lecturing Jews on how we should vote is disgusting and dangerous. American Jews aren’t your props, Mr. President. This is his first time doing it since the explosion of far-right antisemitism, so his audacity must be called out. I'm not saying that Trump is an antisemite, and I don't believe he is one; that's JD Vance who said that Trump "could be the next Hitler." I'm not saying that; I am saying that he's a plain and simple narcissist who, like everything else in his life, exploits Jews to his benefit but doesn't care about them. Trump normalized and empowered a cesspool of hateful crackpots who, in the name of freedom of speech, pushed antisemitism into the mainstream. JD Vance is officially the zookeeper, petting all the animals and ensuring they are being treated nicely and handled with care, and if someone says something like, "Hey, those animals are dangerous," he blames us Jews, but it was Trump who opened the cage. His moody relationship with Netanyahu is not what makes him pro- or anti-Jewish. To me it's more of a factor that he can't fully denounce and disavow Holocaust deniers and Hitler fanboys like Nick Fuentes, full stop. This isn't about free speech; no one asked to have Fuentes jailed, but his hateful views shouldn't be normalized or treated as cute opinions. We all see on an hourly basis how Trump deals with someone he REALLY doesn't approve of. Moving the embassy doesn’t buy absolution for empowering people who want us gone. Steve Bannon at TPUSA's America Fest last month literally used the "embassy move" as a reason why he should be listened to when he vouches for Tucker and other crackpots because "you can't get a better defender of Israel than Steve Bannon. In the White House, I'm the one that pushed initially hard to move the embassy to Jerusalem." Please spare me the “most pro-Israel and pro-Jewish president ever” talking points. He's the most "pro-Trump president ever," solely focused on his interests. He won't denounce the most significant cancer of hate in America, Tucker Carlson, because "he's nice to me," but he'll have 2am Truth Social explosions at Tucker if he says something mean about him. Once Tucker apologizes to him, all is good. It's all about him. After Oct. 7, the most horrific day on the Jewish calendar since the Holocaust, President Biden traveled to Israel and spoke about the relationship of the U.S. and Israel and not about himself. This is because he saw it as a relationship between two allied countries, and that's what it is. Trump sees it as a relationship between himself and how much Israel's PM will kiss his ring. He repeatedly said after Oct. 7 how bad it is for Bibi, not for the people of Israel, for Bibi, because that's what he sees—how Bibi treats him. He was still furious at him for congratulating Biden on winning the election; it's all about him. Bibi must travel to Mar-a-Lago, create bogus Israel peace prizes, and say, "You're the best president," just as I tell my toddler, "You're the best boy." When Biden had his issues with Bibi, he kept making it clear again and again to the people of Israel that he and Bibi disagree currently, but even if it's out in the open, he'll help protect them from Iran if necessary, and he did. After Oct. 7, Biden spoke to Jewish leaders from his heart about how he takes his family to visit Auschwitz to teach them about the Holocaust. I have never heard him demand that Jews vote in a specific way. Trump despicably told parents of hostages who were captured in Gaza that their kids were captured because of Biden and how great he is. I listened to Trump on the first anniversary of Oct 7; all he spoke about was him, himself, and Donald Trump. And that, if not for the rigged elections, it would have never happened. My point is that Trump is a master in manipulating people's minds; he does the big moves to create headlines, hoping everyone buys it, and then demands publicly absolute loyalty. Enough.

Donald Trump’s obsession with lecturing Jews on how we should vote is disgusting and dangerous. American Jews aren’t your props, Mr. President. This is his first time doing it since the explosion of far-right antisemitism, so his audacity must be called out. I'm not saying that Trump is an antisemite, and I don't believe he is one; that's JD Vance who said that Trump "could be the next Hitler." I'm not saying that; I am saying that he's a plain and simple narcissist who, like everything else in his life, exploits Jews to his benefit but doesn't care about them.

🔴JK🌟Was LIVE | 6.28.26 | 4 hours As one of the lucky ones who was able to watch JK’s four-hour live last night, I wanted to share what I took away from it. Fair warning: this is a long one… but he did give us four hours of content. 😅 Read if you’d like! First, and most importantly, Jungkook wants us to see him for who he is: a responsible adult who is capable of making his own decisions. He wants people to stop questioning every choice he makes, every word he says, and every aspect of how he lives his life. He is happy. He told us himself, “I’m so good.” He takes his health and well-being seriously, and he knows what works for him. He works hard, and like many adults, enjoys winding down sometimes with good food, alcohol, or both. He’s naturally nocturnal and thrives on the schedule that suits him. He doesn’t need unsolicited advice about how he should sleep or live. After the show, he went out to eat with the members, before returning to his hotel to film the dance challenge, which took over 50 takes. It was another reminder of how much pride he takes in his work. He always wants to show us, and himself, the very best he can do. Right now, he’s immersed in dance. He’s studying locking, krumping, and other house styles because he genuinely wants to become an even better dancer. He wants keep sharing dance challenges with us, because that’s one of the ways he can give us something new right now. He said he doesn’t actually listen to music that often, unless it is connected to a dance video, but when he does, he’s been enjoying a lot of music from his fellow idols, especially girl groups. He even shared a few songs he’s been playing on repeat lately. He’s also been enjoying anime, talking about several series he’s been watching and how excited he is for the next season of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. He spoke honestly about learning English. He has a teacher, and he wants to improve, but it’s difficult and he simply doesn’t have enough time to devote to it. At the same time, he made it clear, again, that he doesn’t want people constantly asking or telling him to speak English. As he has said so many times: “I don’t speak English. I’m Korean.” If you choose to watch his lives, stop asking for it! One of the most candid moments was hearing him talk about big brand events. He admitted that they make him uncomfortable, saying Taehyung loves them and is much better at them. Small talk doesn’t come naturally to him, and he gets shy with all the eye contact. But, like the professional he is, he has learned how to do it well, because it’s part of his job, and because he genuinely appreciates the brands he works with, speaking warmly once again about his Calvin Klein collaboration. And then there’s what has always been part of Jungkook’s core: singing. He simply loves to sing. He loves exploring his voice, learning new techniques, experimenting with different genres, and constantly improving. He watches YouTube vocal tutorials to keep growing. Karaoke isn’t just fun for him, it’s practice, exploration, and another way to become a better artist. Listening to him sing throughout the live was a gift. Beautiful, playful, effortless, and unmistakably Jungkook. His performance of “Into the Sun” was my personal highlight, with perfectly placed vocal runs, delicate high notes, and emotion woven into every line. This is only a small part of what Jungkook shared with us over those four hours. I’m incredibly grateful that he gave us so much of his time, his thoughts, his laughter, and his music. My biggest takeaway is this: if you choose to log into his lives, then let him live. Keep your cringy comments to yourself. He doesn’t want to see them, and neither do we. Listen to what he’s actually telling you, trust him to know what’s best for himself, and simply enjoy the rare privilege of spending time with him. Thank you, Jungkook. We love you. 💜

This is a must-watch clip. Trump is following through on exactly what he said he would do with China on manufacturing and tariffs all the way back in 2011. He claimed that if China didn't play along with his plan, it would be better for the United States because manufacturing would soar once again for the American people. It's all actually happening. What a time to be alive. "It is very hard to buy anything outside of China... What can you do? So easy… I drop a twenty five percent tax on China… Listen your motherf**kers. We're gonna tax you twenty five percent… This is unthinkable: In 2016, that's in like four years. China is gonna eclipse the United States as a great economic power. We're gonna be in second. And if you would have said that ten years ago people would have laughed at you. They would have laughed… So China's gonna eclipse us in four years. Under the Trump doctrine that doesn't happen. You know why? Because we're gonna start making our own products. We're not gonna let them be made in China… You know when you go to China and you wanna sell stuff in China they make you build a plant and they take all your technology and they pirate everything you have. Look at the deal that General Electric made. They gave up all of this high technology…It's unbelievable… So under the Trump doctrine, it doesn't work that way. It's fellas…it's fellas. We love you very much. You wanna sell to us? Build your plant in Alabama. Build your plant in Nevada. The other thing is we make a much better product, but you can't compete price-wise because of the manipulation so… One of two things is gonna happen and I hope it's the second. The first is they stop screwing around…but the second is, they don't. So here's what happens: About sixty percent of their sales will stop… We will increase the hell out of employment. We will start building... You'll have thousands of those places…once you do that So they'll behave… But if they don't behave, that's even better for us. Because we're gonna start building our own plants. And we'll tell Apple and we'll tell all these other companies, you gotta build your own factories... I'm sorry You can't make it over there. We gotta put our own people to work. So and I'll just go one step further… It can happen so fast."

His own club security refused to let him enter the training ground. Arsenal sold him for a huge profit, made the fans believe he’d betrayed them for money, and turned him into Arsenal’s number one enemy. They signed him from Monaco for only around €3 million. Arsenal wasn’t just another club for Adebayor. It was his dream. His idol was Arsenal legend Nwankwo Kanu. So when he arrived, he even took his idol’s number. Then Bro started cooking. In his best season, he scored 30 goals in all competitions. Arsenal fans fell in love with him. The big clubs came knocking, but Adebayor rejected the offers and signed a new long-term contract with Arsenal, despite being able to earn much more elsewhere. So surely everything was fine now. No. In 2009, Adebayor came back after the summer and went to training like normal. He arrived at the gate and security refused to let him in. Adebayor couldn’t believe it. “I just signed a new contract. What do you mean I’m banned?” He immediately contacted the club. Then came the meeting. Adebayor sat down with the people at Arsenal alongside the manager and dropped the bomb. They’d already agreed to sell him to Manchester City, but Adebayor refused. He wanted to stay at Arsenal. Wenger calmly told him he had zero future at the club, and if he stayed, he wouldn’t see a single minute of game time. Adebayor still didn’t want to believe it. So the next day, Bro went back to training again. Once again, security wouldn’t let him through the gate. At that point, Adebayor finally gave up. Manchester City paid around £25 million for him. Arsenal had bought him for almost nothing and sold him for a massive profit, but the board panicked about the fan outrage. To save their own skins, they leaked to the press that Adebayor was a mercenary who betrayed the club for City’s oil money. Arsenal fans lost their minds, and Adebayor was keeping receipts. His Manchester City career started perfectly. First game, goal. Second game, goal. Third game, goal. Three games, three goals. Everyone was talking about it. That made Arsenal fans even angrier, because the man they believed had betrayed them was cooking immediately for their rivals. Then came game number 4: Manchester City versus Arsenal. Oh, no. Thousands of Arsenal fans traveled to the Etihad ready to show Adebayor exactly what they thought of him, and they didn’t even wait for kickoff. While he was warming up, they were already singing disgusting chants about his family, his mother, his father, everything. Then inside the tunnel, players he once considered brothers barely wanted anything to do with him. At that point, this wasn’t football anymore. It was personal. The game started. City went ahead, but the Arsenal fans didn’t stop. Every touch from Adebayor: boo. More chants, more insults toward his family. Then came the 73rd minute. Adebayor scored City’s third, and Bro completely lost it. He turned around, saw the Arsenal supporters at the other end of the stadium, and started running. Bro turned the Etihad into an Olympic track. He ran almost the entire length of the pitch like Usain Bolt because he’d been waiting all game for this moment. Finally, he reached them, dropped to his knees, slid right in front of them, and just sat there staring. Thousands of Arsenal fans completely lost their minds. Players ran over. Stewards rushed in. The stadium exploded. Adebayor was just sitting there like he’d finally delivered a package he’d been carrying for months. The celebration was so disrespectful that the FA ended up slapping him with a £25,000 fine and a two-game ban.

The second richest man on Earth just told a room full of investors exactly how he plans to WATCH you. Every minute and every day of your life. Larry Ellison, co-founder of Oracle, a $320 billion government contractor stood in front of financial analysts and said the quiet part out loud. "Citizens will be on their best behavior because we're constantly recording and reporting everything that's going on." Read that again slowly. Here's the system he described: Every police body camera in America streaming 24/7 to Oracle's cloud and officers can't turn them off. The camera is always recording. But here's the twist. It's not humans watching the footage, it's AI. Oracle's artificial intelligence monitors every feed in real time. If something happens, a shooting, an altercation, excessive force, AI flags it instantly. An alarm goes off and the chief of police is notified in seconds. "Every police officer is going to be supervised at all times," But he didn't stop there. He said the same system watches citizens too. Doorbell cameras, dash cams, security cameras, traffic cameras, drones overhead. All feeding into one AI-powered network, all analyzed in real time and is on Oracle's servers. And about those drones. Ellison says high-speed police chases should be eliminated, no more patrol cars. Just a drone that locks onto your vehicle and follows you. "It's very simple," he said, "in the age of autonomous drones." So who controls this system? Not you or your local government. Oracle. A private corporation with deep ties to the CIA, the Pentagon, and intelligence agencies around the world. A company whose founder built his first database for the Central Intelligence Agency. The same company now pitching itself as the infrastructure backbone of total surveillance. Critics are calling it a real-life 1984, the ACLU flagged it. But Larry Ellison isn't worried about any of that. He's worried about closing the deal. "There are so many opportunities to exploit AI," he told the room. This isn't a debate about whether AI can help policing, it can. The question is what happens when a private company builds a system designed to watch 330 million people and calls it a product. No vote was taken, the law was passed, and no citizen was consulted. Just one billionaire, one investor meeting, and one vision for a world where everyone is watched and told to behave.

🔥🚨BREAKING: President Trump just verbally violated Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones, and Megyn Kelly, "Low IQ... stupid people... nobody cares about them, they’re NUT JOBS, TROUBLEMAKERS." Trump went on to express his support for Bridget Macron and revealed that he hopes she wins a lot of money in her lawsuit against Candace. Trump: “know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact that they think it is wonderful for Iran, the Number One State Sponsor of Terror, to have a Nuclear Weapon - Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs. They're stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too! Look at their past, look at their record. They don't have what it takes, and they never did!

Now they think they get some "clicks" because they have Third Rate Podcasts, but nobody's talking about them, and their views are the opposite of MAGA - Or I wouldn't have won the Presidential Election in a LANDSLIDE. MAGA agrees with me, and just gave CNN a 100% Approval Rating of "TRUMP," not Hand Flailing Fools like Tucker Carlson, who couldn't even finish College, he was a broken man when he got fired from Fox, and he's never been the same - Perhaps he should see a good psychiatrist!

Now Fake News CNN, The Failing New York Times, and all of the other Radical Left "News" Organizations, are "hailing" them, and giving them "positive" press for the first time in their lives. They're not "MAGA," they're losers, just trying to latch on to MAGA. As President, I could get them on my side anytime I want to, but when they call, I don't return their calls because I'm too busy on World and Country Affairs and, after a few times, they go "nasty," just like Marjorie "Traitor" Brown, but I no longer care about that stuff, I only care about doing right for our Country. MAGA is about WINNING and STRENGTH in not allowing Iran to have Nuclear Weapons. MAGA is about MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and these people have no idea how to do that, BUT I DO, because THE UNITED STATES IS NOW THE "HOTTEST" COUNTRY ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! President DONALD J. TRUMP

🔥🚨BREAKING: President Trump just verbally violated Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones, and Megyn Kelly, "Low IQ... stupid people... nobody cares about them, they’re NUT JOBS, TROUBLEMAKERS." Trump went on to express his support for Bridget Macron and revealed that he hopes she wins a lot of money in her lawsuit against Candace. Trump: “know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact that they think it is wonderful for Iran, the Number One State Sponsor of Terror, to have a Nuclear Weapon - Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs. They're stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too! Look at their past, look at their record. They don't have what it takes, and they never did! They've all been thrown off Television, lost their Shows, and aren't even invited on TV because nobody cares about them, they're NUT JOBS, TROUBLEMAKERS, and will say anything necessary for some "free" and cheap publicity.

Before the bell rings, have to share my weekend - everyone who has been part of Traders4ACause knows how special Honor Flight New England is. One of the MOST incredible Honor Flight NE's I have EVER been on yesterday. Pulled off something really INCREDIBLE and everyone kept their mouth shut, and all surprises unfolded flawlessly. My Dad has been a guardian TEN times, taking/supporting veterans to DC to help give them the thank you and honor they never received when they came home. Sadly, the cutoff is 70 years old so he was pretty bummed he wasn't able to do it anymore. But, once again Delta and Wyndham Hotels & Resorts came together for a third time and put a flight in the air. Given my involvement in making this happen I told him Joe (the one who runs HFNE) had to make a few exceptions for Delta and Wyndham employees and I told my Dad I was able to get approval for him to be a guardian again one more time. He was so pumped. Veterans get a grey shirt, guardians get a blue shirt. Upon check in, everyone was in the know, they checked him in as normal until he got around the corner for his t-shirt for the day. Joe was standing there with a grey shirt, and told him he was coming on the flight as a veteran today, and that I'd be wearing the blue shirt. On top of that, had my Uncle on the flight. He knew he was coming as a veteran. Once again, had Joe ready "Hey, have you met your guardian for the day yet? We picked someone extremely special who we think will be a perfect fit, are you ready to meet him?" His son then comes walking around the corner who we flew in from Texas, put him up at a different hotel so there was no chance of finding out until 6:15AM the morning of the flight. It didn't stop there though, once we arrived at the airport we all came around the last corner before and my whole family was there, and every one of my Dad's sisters made it. Absolutely unforgettable and special. Big thanks to Myra who we met through The Breast Cancer Research Foundation and taught me a lot of what I know on making things like this happen, Susan, Tracy from Delta, Geoff, CEO of Wyndham Hotels (who by the way had to be in London last night and STILL made the flight out of Boston only to bolt late day to make his next flight). Just the whole day, incredible. We need more of it. Favorite part = mail call. On the way to dinner veterans get mail call like when they were in the service. After they open they have a chance to speak/share their favorite part of the day, etc. Most of these veterans came home, were told not to wear uniform again, move on and back to day to day life. They never spoke about it, never honored etc. "I felt like I got the thank you we all deserved and never got" Another guy after mail call "I got a note form some of my family who I have been disconnected from and realize it's been me, I misread the situation and the note they wrote brought clarity and a new beginning" Joe always said during mail call, it's a chance for family and friends to write things they'd never actually say in person and tell them how they really feel - things they never really have a floor to talk about. Lastly, one guy received all the letters his wife saved that he wrote her from war. She saved EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. Can't wait to share the story/video and day at Traders4ACause in Miami late February. Have a good day 🙏

🚨Tucker Carlson Warning “It Could Lead to NUCLEAR WAR.” 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 🇷🇺✍️West’s delusion that it can control Russia by force is long-standing - Tucker Carlson Those in the West making the decisions regarding the proxy war in Ukraine have wanted an open war with Russia “since day one,” says Tucker Carlson. “They expect that they'll win somehow. Of course, they won't,” he notes. “There is something about Russia and the idea that outside powers can conquer it, take its resources or something, prevent it from becoming a global power that is very alluring to Western leaders. But there is zero track record of success,” Carlson says, warning that “It could lead to nuclear war.” 📑But in the war ongoing against Russia has deteriorated to the point that the Russians are considering using nuclear weapon. And so we've done everything we could by calling people to find out, is that true? And it's hard to know exactly if that's true. But here's the way to think about it. So the war in Russia, despite getting almost no attention in American media, is not only ongoing, but it's accelerating. That's the first thing to know. And it's accelerating because NATO, the United States, and the Western European powers are hitting targets, including civilian targets and energy targets, deep within mainland Russia. And that would include a school, killing people on beaches with drones, hitting the Kremlin itself multiple times in drone attacks. So that's becoming more intense. Public opinion in Russia clearly is moving in a more bellicose direction. There are elections underway in Russia right now, which end September twentieth, the Duma elections, the lawmakers' elections. And it's very clear that more and more Russians, and it's hard to quantify this precisely, but are surprised and dismayed that their government is allowing attacks, not by Ukraine, but by Ukraine sponsors, NATO and the United States, against Russia. And it's not destroying the Russian economy, we haven't been able to do that, but it is hurting the Russian economy, and of course, it is a threat to ordinary Russians. 🚨People are getting killed on beaches by drone attacks paid for by the United States or NATO. And if those attacks are being targeted with coordinates given to the Ukrainians by the CIA, and that's exactly what's happening, then your average Russian is beginning to wonder, "Why aren't we doing anything about this?" And so there is mounting pressure on the leadership of that country, Vladimir Putin, who despite American and Western propaganda, is not an absolute totalitarian dictator, which is to say he can't make any decision he wants. He is subject to the opinions, influenced by the opinions of all kinds of different power centers within that country, including public opinion. So the point is, pressure is mounting on Putin to do something to stop these attacks on Russia. And of course, the people mounting the attacks, paying for them, it's not the Ukrainians, by the way, there is no real Ukraine anymore. Its population has been decimated in this war. The big decisions are made by outside powers. Ukraine has no sovereignty, unfortunately for Ukraine. But the, the people who are making the decisions, and that would include the CIA in the United States, the NSA in the United States, the heads of state of Great Britain and France and Germany and basically the rest of the West, those people clearly understand that we're moving toward some sort of more open conflict with Russia. And that's kind of the point. Push Russia to do something radical against the West, blow up Kiev, for example, the Ukrainian capital, hit Poland, maybe even lob some kind of weapon into Western Europe. And at that point, you get what they've wanted since day one, which is an open war with Russia that they expect that they'll win somehow. Which of course they won't. But the delusion that Western powers can control Russia by force is longstanding. I mean, many leaders have fallen to that delusion. 🚨Napoleon himself in 1812 famously invaded Russia, got all the way to Moscow, occupied Moscow for a month in 1812, and then retreated and destroyed the entire French army. Hundreds of thousands of French soldiers died on the march back to Paris. But totally undeterred, crazed with hubris, Napoleon continued to pick other wars, and in less than three years, he was defeated finally, famously, in a fight with the Brits at Waterloo and died at fifty-one in exile. And France was never again, to this day, a global power. 🚨So he destroyed France and the French Empire because he thought that he can control Russia through force. 🚨And of course, you know, a hundred and 30 years later, almost within living memory, the German government under Adolf Hitler did exactly the same thing in Operation Barbarossa and marched all the way to Moscow once again and was once again totally destroyed. So there's something about Russia -and the idea that outside powers can conquer it, take its resources or something, prevent it from becoming a global power, that is very alluring to Western leaders. But there is zero track record of success. Now, once again, within living memory of the last attempt, which was the German attempt in 1941 to do the same thing, European and American leaders have decided that no, this time it will be different, and we will control Russia through force. But of course, that's not going to happen. It will not work, and it could lead to nuclear war. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Public opinion in Russia clearly is moving in a more bellicose direction. There are elections underway in Russia right now, which end September twentieth, the Duma elections, the lawmakers' elections. And it's very clear that more and more Russians, and it's hard to quantify this precisely, but are surprised and dismayed that their government is allowing attacks, not by Ukraine, but by Ukraine sponsors, NATO and the United States, against Russia. And it's not destroying the Russian economy, we haven't been able to do that, but it is hurting the Russian economy, and of course, it is a threat to ordinary Russians. 🚨People are getting killed on beaches by drone attacks paid for by the United States or NATO. And if those attacks are being targeted with coordinates given to the Ukrainians by the CIA, and that's exactly what's happening, then your average Russian is beginning to wonder, "Why aren't we doing anything about this?" And so there is mounting pressure on the leadership of that country, Vladimir Putin, who despite American and Western propaganda, is not an absolute totalitarian dictator, which is to say he can't make any decision he wants. He is subject to the opinions, influenced by the opinions of all kinds of different power centers within that country, including public opinion. So the point is, pressure is mounting on Putin to do something to stop these attacks on Russia. And of course, the people mounting the attacks, paying for them, it's not the Ukrainians, by the way, there is no real Ukraine anymore. Its population has been decimated in this war. The big decisions are made by outside powers. Ukraine has no sovereignty, unfortunately for Ukraine. But the, the people who are making the decisions, and that would include the CIA in the United States, the NSA in the United States, the heads of state of Great Britain and France and Germany and basically the rest of the West, those people clearly understand that we're moving toward some sort of more open conflict with Russia. And that's kind of the point. Push Russia to do something radical against the West, blow up Kiev, for example, the Ukrainian capital, hit Poland, maybe even lob some kind of weapon into Western Europe. And at that point, you get what they've wanted since day one, which is an open war with Russia that they expect that they'll win somehow. Which of course they won't. But the delusion that Western powers can control Russia by force is longstanding. I mean, many leaders have fallen to that delusion. 🚨Napoleon himself in 1812 famously invaded Russia, got all the way to Moscow, occupied Moscow for a month in 1812, and then retreated and destroyed the entire French army. Hundreds of thousands of French soldiers died on the march back to Paris. But totally undeterred, crazed with hubris, Napoleon continued to pick other wars, and in less than three years, he was defeated finally, famously, in a fight with the Brits at Waterloo and died at fifty-one in exile. And France was never again, to this day, a global power. 🚨So he destroyed France and the French Empire because he thought that he can control Russia through force. 🚨And of course, you know, a hundred and 30 years later, almost within living memory, the German government under Adolf Hitler did exactly the same thing in Operation Barbarossa and marched all the way to Moscow once again and was once again totally destroyed. So there's something about Russia -and the idea that outside powers can conquer it, take its resources or something, prevent it from becoming a global power, that is very alluring to Western leaders. But there is zero track record of success. Now, once again, within living memory of the last attempt, which was the German attempt in 1941 to do the same thing, European and American leaders have decided that no, this time it will be different, and we will control Russia through force. But of course, that's not going to happen. It will not work, and it could lead to nuclear war. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Akira Kurosawa on his experience watching 'Solaris' (1972) & drinking vodka with Andrei Tarkovsky in Moscow: "I met Tarkovsky for the first time when I attended my welcome luncheon at the Mosfilm during my first visit to Soviet Russia. He was small, thin, looked a little frail, and at the same time exceptionally intelligent, and unusually shrewd and sensitive. I thought he somehow resembled Toru Takemitsu, but I don’t know why. Then he excused himself saying, “I still have work to do,” and disappeared, and after a while I heard such a big explosion as to make all the glass windows of the dining hall tremble hard. Seeing me taken aback, the boss of the Mosfilm said with a meaningful smile: “You know another world war does not break out. Tarkovsky just launched a rocket. This work with Tarkovsky, however, has proved a Great War for me.” That was the way I knew Tarkovsky was shooting 'Solaris' (1972). After the luncheon party, I visited his set for Solaris. There it was. I saw a burnt down rocket was there at the corner of the space station set. I am sorry I forgot to ask him as to how he had shot the launching of the rocket on the set. The set of the satellite base was beautifully made at a huge cost, for it was all made up of thick duralumin. It glittered in its cold metallic silver light, and I found light rays of red, or blue or green delicately winking or waving from electric light bulbs buried in the gagues on the equipment lined up in there. And above on the ceiling of the corridor ran two duralumin rails from which hanged a small wheel of a camera which could move around freely inside the satellite base. Tarkovsky guided me around the set, explaining to me as cheerfully as a young boy who is given a golden opportunity to show someone his favorite toybox. Bondarchuk, who came with me, asked him about the cost of the set, and left his eyes wide open when Tarkovsky answered it. The cost was so huge: about six hundred million yen as to make Bondarchuk, who directed that grand spectacle of a movie “War and Peace,” agape in wonder. Now I came to fully realize why the boss of the Mosfilm said it was “a Great War for me.” But it takes a huge talent and effort to spend such a huge cost. Thinking “This is a tremendous task” I closely gazed at his back when he was leading me around the set in enthusiasm. Concerning Solaris, I find many people complaining that it is too long, but I do not think so. They especially find too lengthy the description of nature in the introductory scenes, but these layers of memory of farewell to this earthly nature submerge themselves deep below the bottom of the story after the main character has been sent in a rocket into the satellite station base in the universe, and they almost torture the soul of the viewer like a kind of irresistible nostalghia toward mother earth nature, which resembles homesickness. Without the presence of beautiful nature sequences on earth as a long introduction, you could not make the audience directly conceive the sense of having-no-way-out harboured by the people “jailed” inside the satellite base. I saw this film late at night in a preview room in Moscow for the first time, and soon I felt my heart aching in agony with a longing to returning to the earth as quickly as possible. Marvellous progress in science we have been enjoying, but where will it lead humanity after all? Sheer fearful emotion this film succeeds in conjuring up in our soul. Without it, a science fiction movie would be nothing more than a petty fancy. These thoughts came and went while I was gazing at the screen. Tarkovsky was together with me then. He was at the corner of the studio. When the film was over, he stood up, looking at me as if he felt timid. I said to him, “Very good. It makes me feel real fear.” Tarkovsky smiled shyly, but happily. And we toasted vodka at the restaurant in the Film Institute. Tarkovsky, who didn’t drink usually, drank a lot of vodka, and went so far as to turn off the speaker from which music had floated into the restaurant, and began to sing the theme of samurai from Seven Samurai at the top of his voice. As if to rival him, I joined in. For I was at that moment very happy to find myself living on Earth. Solaris makes a viewer feel this, and even this single fact shows us that Solaris is no ordinary SF film. It truly somehow provokes pure horror in our soul. And it is under the total grip of the deep insights of Tarkovsky. There must be many, many things still unknown to humanity in this world: the abyss of the cosmos which a man had to look into, strange visitors in the satellite base, time running in reverse, from death to life, strangely moving sense of levitation, his home which is in the mind of the main character in the satellite station is wet and soaked with water. It seems to me to be sweat and tears that in his heartbreaking agony he squeezed out of his whole being. And what makes us shudder is the shot of the location of Akasakamitsuke, Tokyo, Japan. By a skillful use of mirrors, he turned flows of head lights and tail lamps of cars, multiplied and amplified, into a vintage image of the future city. Every shot of Solaris bears witness to the almost dazzling talents inherent in Tarkovsky. Many people grumble that Tarkovsky’s films are difficult, but I don’t think so. His films just show how extraordinarily sensitive Tarkovsky is. He made a film titled 'Mirror' (1975) after Solaris. Mirror deals with his cherished memories in his childhood, and many people say again it is disturbingly difficult. Yes, at a glance, it seems to have no rational development in its storytelling. But we have to remember: it is impossible that in our soul our childhood memories should arrange themselves in a static, logical sequence. A strange train of fragments of early memory images shattered and broken can bring about the poetry in our infancy. Once you are convinced of its truthfulness, you may find Mirror the easiest film to understand. But Tarkovsky remains silent, without saying things like that at all. His very attitude makes me believe that he has wonderful potentials in his future. There can be no bright future for those who are ready to explain everything about their own film."

Bitch, I do not play about eighth grade star aka opinions based girl….. yeah everybody’s laughing now, but it literally does not take away the fact that you are so fucking ugly like I had his ass blocked on my old account before I even saw this because every time he pops up on my for you page I just have to scroll because he’s so fucking ugly that it pisses me off he looks like he could be casted on Netflix and not in a good way. He seriously needs to find a new haircut because what the fuck is that middle part? and of course he’s a Nepo baby, and the best part is I just found out that he used to be fat, I bet he’s an anorexic asf lowkey all shade and that’s the only way his pathetic ass could lose weight and I know he didn’t use laxatives cause he’s definitely a bottom, the type that one bitch from White Lotus would say as a fem and NOT a butch. You can tell he wants to be Matthew from big mouth but he’s more of a Charlie from heartstopper, you can also tell that he’s never got his ass beat, well maybe once in middle school and then his white ass republican parents freaked the fuck out and got the kid suspended or some shit. Of course he’s obsessed with Diet Coke, he’s so obviously wants to be a white woman that it is embarrassing. Middle schoolers definitely go up to him and be like “oh my God you’re famous on TikTok” and he thinks he’s the shit but the rest of the population don’t give a fuck and the way his mom is a teacher…… I know that she probably yells at the fucking class for everything but really she’s just taking it out on these kids because she knows deep down that she wishes her son was like them instead of a fucking loser who makes strawberry bagels on TikTok not to mention everybody praised him for doing angel tree, bitch that’s nothing he probably just used some of his allowance money to look like a good person so y’all bitches would suck his dick. Omg in all of his fucking videos he tries to sound cute with that feminine ass voice and it gives me a secondhand embarrassment down. he thinks he’s Troye Sivan, but he will never admit that he probably listens to fucking country music and Taylor Swift so he can fit in with all of his Christian girl friends and that’s it. You can tell he peaked in high school. He was definitely the “token gay” and the homophobic straight boys loved him because he was “funny“ but it was all surface level, TikTok humor that seems funny to them. of course he reposted something about drinking on antidepressants. Just because you had a white claw and some lexapro(which explains why he used to be fat as fuck) doesn’t make you whatever a fucking vibe you’re trying to go for. He looks like he jerks off to the Lululemon maternity catalog while pretending he’s Harry Styles. I saw on TikTok that he has a girlfriend and I can’t tell if it’s just for attention or if he’s actually still dl so that his parents don’t freak the fuck out on him and he has to get a real job. This one girl posted him on TikTok, shaking his hips and drinking wine…… like who do you think you fucking are bro? like genuinely who the fuck do you think you are?🔑 he also reposted a TikTok about Lorde “looking a mess” I really don’t give a fuck if it was a joke. You have no place to be talking about somebody’s looks when he looks like that……. and y’all know what I mean, the type of guy who fucks all the dl in the room because he has zero confidence. The type of guy who has all the latest Apple products for no reason. I mean seriously he looks like he eats fucking rocks. Apparently he caused a lot of drama on TikTok (of course) and blamed his OCD like what kind of dumb ass excuse is that but then again he probably asked his mom what to say and then she sent him a script and he went with it. Somebody keeps on copying his videos and it’s pissing him off. I think it’s so hilarious…… you realize you’re just another copy and paste of every other wanna be “ influencer”. Don’t ever try coming for eighth grade start again.🔑🔑

Analyzing Episode 35. Season 2 aka Turning the Tables Alrighty, let's do this. Episode 35 was one of the strongest episodes of season 2, I think, because we get to see Ciho and Alya kind of switch places, for once. In s1, Alya would mostly pick flight when her feelings got overwhelming. Whereas Ciho, with his Ağa mindset, would inevitably choose to fight. But, unlike in s1, the circumstances are unique. We see the tables turn because Alya probably hasn't loved anyone before like she loves Cihan, and Cihan hasn't ever come across a test as heavy as the half-alive Boran. So, essentially, they're both out of their comfort zones. Let's discuss Alya first. My love for this character just keeps growing. I've yet to see someone be as principled and willing to break the rules, as strong and soft at the same time, as Alya Albora. The woman is a marvel. We must protect her at all costs (Get in line, Ciho). As the episode begins, Alya walks off to their room and proceeds to lock herself in Cihan's study after informing everyone about Cihan's not-so-tiny health problem. I think being the smart cookie she is, she realizes early on that Cihan will be his stubborn self about the surgery business, which is why something of a plan is already forming in her head. When Cihan shows up to talk, Alya doesn't back down from telling him she knows exactly why he's walking to almost certain death. Still, she only brings out the big guns after pleading with him to review his decision doesn't work. Her goal isn't to hurt him. It's to save him. To shock him enough to wake from the limbo Cihan has isolated himself in. When her words fail to achieve their target, she acts. I'm pretty damn sure she knows exactly what she's going to do as she's packing her clothes to leave the mansion. Alya refuses to leave Cihan's side even in the worst of circumstances, so her walking out when he's about to risk his life is completely out of character. And not only that, before leaving, she tells Cihan she doesn't want to talk to him or see him until he changes his mind about becoming the donor. See? Smart. She's doing everything she can to keep him from monitoring her movements (like he generally does :D). She's learned to read her husband, so much so that she turns his tactics on him. And Cihan never picks up on it. And watching her in action is poetry in motion - beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. Because this time, the one person she can always count on for support isn't with her. She's fighting for Cihan, for their love, all on her own. Even though they promise each other they'd face whatever obstacles come their way together as they leave the airport in ep 29. While everyone gathers to wish Cihan well before the operation, Alya walks through those corridors alone. She has no one to calm her fears, no one to soothe her brow. No one tells her they'll be praying for her quick recovery. And that hurts like a son of a bitch. Because Alya has such a capacity for love and giving, she doesn't hesitate to take huge risks for the people she loves. On the other hand, she has no one other than Cihan to do the same for her. He's her other half. And there's no way in hell she'd stand back and watch him destroy himself. Her devotion and resolve are crystal clear when she speaks to Cihan while he's sedated. Still, I think some of her loneliness and desperation bleeds through her words to her husband. Almost as if something deep inside her cries out for him to wake up and choose her - like she's choosing him. Over everyone. Even her own life. Speaking of choosing, let's pause here and pivot to Cihan Bey. Cihan, like all of us, is a product of his upbringing, his environment, and his personal beliefs. Two of those three things are extremely toxic and warped. Not to mention, the guilt that's eating him alive is a product of those two things. They say when you're undergoing feelings of intense guilt, you tend to fluctuate between two states - suppression and surrender. When you suppress, you tell yourself you're fine. Everything's okay. Things are best this way type of stuff. In fact, I want you to remember this phrase. Then, there's surrender - moments of lucidity where you realize you're falling apart, that this isn't what you want at all. You're flooded by emotions and longing about what you're denying yourself. And that's something you see in Cihan over and over in this episode. He keeps fluctuating from one state to the other, and I don't think he even realizes what he's about to do to himself and Alya by wanting to go through with that operation. Take the scene where they're talking in their room before Alya leaves. On the one hand, Cihan tells Alya he has responsibilities to his family, and on the other, he can't see how his decision will affect Alya and Deniz. Then, when Cihan tries talking to Alya when he's driving her to work, he tells her he doesn't want to sacrifice their love, but in the next instance, he tells her he won't lose her 'in his heart' even if Boran wakes up. You see the inconsistency? He keeps switching between what he truly wants and the things might be best this way mindset. Surrender and suppression. Like when he keeps seeking her out at every turn, but insists on undergoing a surgery that will almost certainly kill him. The guilt inside him builds like pressure almost. He tries to suppress it until it spills over, revealing his true feelings, then he panics and moves back to suppression again. This keeps repeating until he wakes up to discover that Alya is the one undergoing the surgery. That's when the cycle finally breaks. Because when he's faced with the reality of losing Alya forever, he finally accepts the core truth driving his guilt - he fell in love with his brother's wife. Sure, he thinks Boran is dead and gone when it happens, but guilt doesn't really follow logic. That's why Alya being the donor and almost losing her life forces him to accept the love he feels for Alya is part of him now. There is no fighting it, there is no changing it. There is only accepting it. And his speech to Boran before he sees Alya is proof of his surrender. Because he finally admits that his bond with Alya isn't about choice anymore, he doesn't control the love; it controls him now. In front of Boran, no less. He finally looks his guilt in the face and starts to overcome it. That's why we see him initiating the kiss in their room. He's not overcome by self-reproach when he thinks of touching Alya intimately now. All very, very positive signs. And, let's not forget, when he sees his entire family conspired behind his back to allow Alya to be the donor, he understands another sold truth. He is the only family Alya has apart from Deniz. Which makes Alya's sacrifice all the more powerful. Because he realizes that she kept her part of the bargain. She kept fighting for them, even when he didn't. Hopefully, this is the moment where Cihan stops running and starts choosing. Alya didn’t just save his life physically; she forced him to confront the part of himself he kept buried. And now that he’s finally surrendered to that truth, we’re about to see the version of Cihan who fights for love instead of resisting it. Till next time, happy reading, y'all. #CihAl #UzakŞehir

She's doing everything she can to keep him from monitoring her movements (like he generally does :D). She's learned to read her husband, so much so that she turns his tactics on him. And Cihan never picks up on it. And watching her in action is poetry in motion - beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. Because this time, the one person she can always count on for support isn't with her. She's fighting for Cihan, for their love, all on her own. Even though they promise each other they'd face whatever obstacles come their way together as they leave the airport in ep 29. While everyone gathers to wish Cihan well before the operation, Alya walks through those corridors alone. She has no one to calm her fears, no one to soothe her brow. No one tells her they'll be praying for her quick recovery. And that hurts like a son of a bitch. Because Alya has such a capacity for love and giving, she doesn't hesitate to take huge risks for the people she loves. On the other hand, she has no one other than Cihan to do the same for her. He's her other half. And there's no way in hell she'd stand back and watch him destroy himself. Her devotion and resolve are crystal clear when she speaks to Cihan while he's sedated. Still, I think some of her loneliness and desperation bleeds through her words to her husband. Almost as if something deep inside her cries out for him to wake up and choose her - like she's choosing him. Over everyone. Even her own life. Speaking of choosing, let's pause here and pivot to Cihan Bey. Cihan, like all of us, is a product of his upbringing, his environment, and his personal beliefs. Two of those three things are extremely toxic and warped. Not to mention, the guilt that's eating him alive is a product of those two things. They say when you're undergoing feelings of intense guilt, you tend to fluctuate between two states - suppression and surrender. When you suppress, you tell yourself you're fine. Everything's okay. Things are best this way type of stuff. In fact, I want you to remember this phrase. Then, there's surrender - moments of lucidity where you realize you're falling apart, that this isn't what you want at all. You're flooded by emotions and longing about what you're denying yourself. And that's something you see in Cihan over and over in this episode. He keeps fluctuating from one state to the other, and I don't think he even realizes what he's about to do to himself and Alya by wanting to go through with that operation. Take the scene where they're talking in their room before Alya leaves. On the one hand, Cihan tells Alya he has responsibilities to his family, and on the other, he can't see how his decision will affect Alya and Deniz. Then, when Cihan tries talking to Alya when he's driving her to work, he tells her he doesn't want to sacrifice their love, but in the next instance, he tells her he won't lose her 'in his heart' even if Boran wakes up. You see the inconsistency? He keeps switching between what he truly wants and the things might be best this way mindset. Surrender and suppression. Like when he keeps seeking her out at every turn, but insists on undergoing a surgery that will almost certainly kill him. The guilt inside him builds like pressure almost. He tries to suppress it until it spills over, revealing his true feelings, then he panics and moves back to suppression again. This keeps repeating until he wakes up to discover that Alya is the one undergoing the surgery. That's when the cycle finally breaks. Because when he's faced with the reality of losing Alya forever, he finally accepts the core truth driving his guilt - he fell in love with his brother's wife. Sure, he thinks Boran is dead and gone when it happens, but guilt doesn't really follow logic. That's why Alya being the donor and almost losing her life forces him to accept the love he feels for Alya is part of him now. There is no fighting it, there is no changing it. There is only accepting it. And his speech to Boran before he sees Alya is proof of his surrender. Because he finally admits that his bond with Alya isn't about choice anymore, he doesn't control the love; it controls him now. In front of Boran, no less. He finally looks his guilt in the face and starts to overcome it. That's why we see him initiating the kiss in their room. He's not overcome by self-reproach when he thinks of touching Alya intimately now. All very, very positive signs. And, let's not forget, when he sees his entire family conspired behind his back to allow Alya to be the donor, he understands another sold truth. He is the only family Alya has apart from Deniz. Which makes Alya's sacrifice all the more powerful. Because he realizes that she kept her part of the bargain. She kept fighting for them, even when he didn't. Hopefully, this is the moment where Cihan stops running and starts choosing. Alya didn’t just save his life physically; she forced him to confront the part of himself he kept buried. And now that he’s finally surrendered to that truth, we’re about to see the version of Cihan who fights for love instead of resisting it. Till next time, happy reading, y'all. #CihAl #UzakŞehir

🔥A Pagan Has The Floor🔥 Full Translated Official Hitler Youth Magazine 'Will & Power' Article on Pagan Rebirth. Assorted Excerpts: 🔺"Those who are ideologically unsteady and spineless, who wander from one idea to the next and are constantly being “newly inspired,” are better off under the discipline of a church than in the open air of paganism." 🔺"...Thus the First of May, too, has received its pagan consecration—not as a day of praying and pleading, but of awakening, of the surging of strength, of work. And with this, its public reintroduction into the circle of festivals was also an outward victory of paganism." 🔺"..Our youth storms forth again and again in the same rhythm. Look into its fresh soul, come to know its poets… true, sturdy pagans they were and still are today." 🔺"For the Christian, “prayer” may be synonymous with “begging.” The pagan, however, does not beg for help from on high and then fold his hands in his lap and wait." ________________________ FULL ARTICLE: A Pagan Has the Floor. "From the “Reichswart” we reproduce the following letter, which seems to us typical of a part of the young activist generation: Outwardly, Germany celebrated its rebirth in the Garrison Church at Potsdam beside the sarcophagus of its great Prussian king. He is and lives on, immortal: the spirit of Prussia and of paganism. It is the eternal German, in whom will-to-action, creative power, and inner experience seek one another in Faustian fashion and unite in harmony and form. Impetuously he reaches up toward the stars; the divine awakens, shapes itself for its own sake, stands exalted above every form, indeed shattering them, as a mighty confession to the divine in itself: Bach, Beethoven, Goethe, Kant… the Gothic! And just as the eternal German carried the vastness of his forests, the roar of his northern sea, the clarity of his starry heavens into his deepest experience—into religion, into music, into his poetry and striving, into philosophy, into the art of building, into all his lofty creations—so once again he is driven out into the immediate creations of Nature, to rediscover there the fructification of the soul, inner peace in harmony and dialogue, above all in struggle with her. Thus our youth storms forth again and again in the same rhythm. Look into its fresh soul, come to know its poets… true, sturdy pagans they were and still are today: “Going to church means crawling into the devil’s arse. May God preserve me!” “Either I serve God through my life—and then my whole life is divine service and I need no church; or I do not serve God and do not seek him—and then going to church would be utterly superfluous.” “Are you still a pagan? Remain one and do not let yourself be baptised!” (From Gorch Fock’s diary pages “Stars above the Sea”.) “We always had religion, but a this-worldly religion; we saved the next world for later. With both feet we stood on the dear earth, lived our life in joy and custom, did not intoxicate ourselves with lust and cruelty, and therefore, unlike the Asiatics, needed no opiates such as remorse and penance. We stood toward our gods as toward our princes; we paid them their dues punctually, came to attention, let them pass by—and that was that! They were not allowed to interfere in our personal lives. More than once I have looked death in the eye, yet never once did it occur to me that I should first put on a clean shirt in case I suddenly found myself standing before someone who would inspect my laundry before opening the door for me. We say we are Christians, but we are not; nor can we be. Christianity and tribal consciousness are simply incompatible. “But the ascetic on the cross is a god for old men and the sick. And we others? When will a temple finally be erected for the modern, strong, scientifically thinking man, for the roaring of psalms and the tone of eternity in his heart?” (Johan Bojer.) But “prayer” must not be misused in the Christian sense and confused with church attendance. For the Christian, “prayer” may be synonymous with “begging.” The pagan, however, does not beg for help from on high and then fold his hands in his lap and wait. “Help yourself, and God will help you” is certainly not an oriental-fatalistic Bible verse; it sprang from genuine German experience. If the Christian clergy, especially the non-Catholic, has lost contact with youth, the fault does not lie with the “godless” people or even with the “godless movement,” as they would so dearly love to claim. With such (to put it mildly) excuses a clergyman steals his way into his dear Lord’s kingdom of heaven! The fault lies in the inner cramping of the church officials themselves, in their stubborn clinging to the man-made book called the Bible. They transfigure and worship God, interpret and misinterpret, quarrel and excommunicate, instead of being trailblazers for a higher experience in all its manifestations. And because Protestantism cannot find its fulfilment in this, its gradual dying away in favour of Catholicism, and the awakening paganism is both explicable and to be welcomed. Rotten wood belongs in the fire, and the clarification of fronts is what the present age demands. For a long time the dividing lines have no longer been seriously Protestantism versus Catholicism; they are increasingly and clearly becoming dogma-free religious paganism on the one hand and Catholic Christianity on the other. In the Protestant camp there are many who show more conviction for the insights of non-Christian philosophers than for the promises of the Bible. On the other side, convinced Christians will draw all the closer to Catholicism, especially as the latter, for reasons of power-politics and historical development, loosens its orthodox rigidity; here the vastly superior worldly shrewdness of the Church of Rome and its this-worldly security measures offer the best preconditions for a comprehensive breakthrough. Many facts already indicate today that Protestantism, still deliberating at the “green table,” is quietly being outflanked. We stand in an age of a Renaissance of world-historical significance. I deliberately quoted no “big-name authorities” for the awakening of paganism. Just as it arose from the nature-bound German soul and continually draws new strength from it, so too the uncomplicated poets of nature and homeland will remain its most successful proclaimers, whether consciously or unconsciously. The inner success that is not forced by propaganda or, as one must expect, by fiscal-technical coercion is the infallible measure of the vibrations of the folk-soul. Called leaders are watching over the new becoming. Our youth has grown more religious; it is searching; and like it, so are many others, more than ever before. May Heaven preserve us, however, from the jealous quarrels of sects. Our youth is pagan-religious because it is German. In this it is more inward-turned than many a nominal Christian and churchgoer. But if you reject it as godless and shallow, then you slander and profane the homeland-seeking of your own German, Nordic-feeling soul. The recent reports that re-entries into the churches are piling up do not change the basic situation in the least. Convinced pagans will keep themselves free from the opportunists who today think a church exit is the right thing and tomorrow think re-entry is. Those who are ideologically unsteady and spineless, who wander from one idea to the next and are constantly being “newly inspired,” are better off under the discipline of a church than in the open air of paganism. This experience will have taught General Ludendorff to transform his originally more ambitious “Deutschvolk” into a mere ideological recruiting depot and to give it the philosophical works of his wife as its foundation. His worst enemy, the Church of Rome, set him an example with its own educational methods; one can only wish and hope that these methods do not, as unfortunately seems to be the case, grow completely beyond his control. History furnishes proof that Christianity, and especially in this regard and especially in this regard the Roman Church in particular, with its worldly shrewdness, is accustomed to carrying out its mission in such a way that paganism (Heidentum), precisely because of the attitude that rightly rejects, for the most part, the systematic soul-snaring that is called mission, simply cannot measure up to it. But as long as the old customs and traditions have not disappeared, as long as at the high festivals of paganism; the mountain fires blaze across the land, as long as we all accompany the solstices with the quiet opening of the time of need (Notwende), so long will the glow of paganism be stirred and nourished. In doing so, the Church will again and again attempt in vain to give a Christian stamp to this new becoming. But it is under the sign of the swastika, the ancient-Nordic symbol of life, not under that of Golgotha, that Germany celebrates its rebirth. Thus the First of May, too, has received its pagan consecration—not as a day of praying and pleading, but of awakening, of the surging of strength, of work. And with this, its public reintroduction into the circle of festivals was also an outward victory of paganism." _________________________ Source: Wille und Macht 1.1933, Teil 2, Pgs 32-34
