🚨 DJ Akademiks Sends Warning to Maino, Jim Jones, Fabolous & Dave East Fresh off a flight from Miami, DJ Akademiks hopped straight on livestream and addressed the crew behind the “Let’s Rap About It” podcast letting them know his full response to Maino’s rant is coming tomorrow. 🎙️ Akademiks to His Chat Ak says he’s too tired to “cook” tonight but promises he’ll be locked in for tomorrow’s show: •“Y’all want me to cook Maino and the Four Grams I get it. But tonight? I’m tired.” •“Right now I’m LeBron dropping eight points. Tomorrow? I gotta come in dropping 45.” •Plans to watch the full clip live on stream with a bottle of Hennessy on standby. •“If the Hennessy says roast these dudes, I’m on they ass. If it says keep it jokes, then jokes it is.” 🎙️ Shots Fired at the Rappers-Turned-Podcasters Ak didn’t hold back: •“I’m glad y’all put the mic down y’all were wasting studio time.” •“This is my realm. I’m the Jay-Z of this talking thing. I’m the Drake of this content thing.” •Welcomes them to the internet space but sets rules: •Jokes are fine. •No threats, no “we gonna slap you,” no street talk. •“Fight me with your words. This is content.” 🎙️ Akademiks Speaks on Their Podcast Lane •Says he actually likes seeing older rappers move into content. •Their audience doesn’t overlap with his, so he sees no issue. •Claims he’s only critiqued them to “welcome them into the realm.” •Encourages fans to get their “gangster perspectives” from rappers he only delivers his style of commentary. 😂 Ak’s Jim Jones & Maino Jokes Ak went off with the comedy: •Says Jim Jones gave “airport fight energy” in person. •Jokes that Jim kept flexing his pecs mid-conversation: •“I couldn’t tell if he was flirting or trying to be tough.” •Calls Maino “Bronny James on the mic,” while he calls himself “LeBron, Kareem, Wilt, and Jordan in one.” 🚨 Final Warning •“Tomorrow, I’m not ducking no smoke.” •Promises a 15–30 minute roast session depending on his mood. •Says the rappers are “learning the ropes” of podcasting and internet back-and-forth. •“This is content time. Let’s get to the roasting.”

I've been pretty busy lately, I can't share what for yet, but I had a little bit of time to help provide some changes to Tokengo Kda recently. From a technical standpoint, I am satisfied with where we are. My only goal was to build something that anyone could use. Keep following the wall of text to see what's coming next for the site. This also gets asked, but there is no funding source other than tokens created and donations, which are much appreciated. Advanztek | Building Your Ideas took over the platform after my initial concept for a myriad of reasons. I still help support but plan to get others involved more for regular issues as I want to spend my time working on things like a new back end, enabling real-time stats that can be published on the site and X. This will enable the things I couldn't see myself directly supporting(not that I didn't want to). Trading leaderboards, trending tokens, and real-time stats popping up on the site like large buys are all coming as a result. FunnyOMG99 has been a private source of support, and I thank you for that. Kabir has been helping behind the scenes with styling/format and is updating as well. Advanztek is building the new leaderboard UI, and I've offered for him to take over the game bots I cannot operate myself for Telegram(these are f*ing cool and finally get to see the light of day). Where the site goes from here will be interesting. I've debated if the IDE should be separate, and soon it will end up with a version in my sandbox to really make it a robust tool. Easier ways to get token trading immediately, locking LP, burning LP, and some other features should be added/unhidden very soon. Some quality-of-life improvements for token names should be made soon as well. Following Tokengo Kda is good, as that handle will start to provide more updates, but I know many people follow me directly for this information. Thank you to azzacalabaza for editing the video attached. Also, big thanks to the people who are testing the live data test site. We've made several changes since this was done a few days back based on feedback. If you want to join and check it out, just dm me on Telegram for the link. Now LFG and have a great weekend!

Paul Anka wrote “She’s a Lady” on the back of a TWA menu. In 1970, he was on a flight from London to New York after appearing on Tom Jones’s television show. With no paper available, he grabbed the airline menu and scribbled the lyrics right there. Once home, he sat down in his den and finished the melody in about an hour and a half. It remains one of the fastest songs he ever wrote. Thinking of Tom Jones, the image of a confident, swaggering man came to mind, and the words followed that spirit exactly. Tom Jones recorded the song in 1970 and released it in early 1971. The single climbed the charts quickly. It reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, held off the top spot only by Janis Joplin’s “Me and Bobby McGee,” and hit No. 1 on Cash Box as well as the Canadian charts. It stands as Tom Jones’s highest-charting single in the United States and his final Top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. The B-side was “My Way,” another set of lyrics written by Paul Anka. That pairing only underlined the connection between the two artists. In December 1974, they shared the stage on The Midnight Special. The live performance captures the moment they sang “She’s a Lady” together. Tom Jones still had that familiar powerful presence, while Paul Anka added his voice and easy interplay. They didn’t just stand and sing—they moved, smiled at each other, and created a warm, easy chemistry on stage. The band behind them locked in tight, the lighting and clothes pure 1970s. What I love most are the moments when their voices blend and they glance at each other—it feels like they’re genuinely enjoying the song in real time. Every time I come back to it, whether the studio cut or this live version, the song still carries its own distinct energy. It doesn’t need elaborate production tricks. A strong voice, a clear melody, and real stage presence are enough. Paul Anka has said it’s not his favorite of the songs he’s written, yet the way it fit Tom Jones’s style turned it into a major hit. And when the two of them stood together in 1974, the song seemed to gain a fresh breath of life. When the video ends, the melody stays in my head. Some songs survive not only because of chart numbers but because of honest live moments like this. “She’s a Lady” is one of them—a tune strong enough to keep pulling listeners back, even after all these years.

NAMTAN BEAUTERRY MY HOME #BeauterryMyHomeBecoming #Beauterry #BeauterryXNamtanTipnaree #filmracha 🗣: What kind of work can fans expect to see soon? 🤍: Soon, we’ll have Fancon 🗣: How’s the preparation for that? 🤍: right now we’re discussing the songs with the team behind the scenes, the show concept, and how it will turn out, since there’ll be solo parts, couple parts, and special guests. 🗣: What will each of your solo performances focus on? ❤️‍🩹: For Film, I’m trying my best to represent who I truly am. 🗣: And how about Namtan? Are you comfortable with it? You’ve been through quite a lot, including concerts and things like that. 🤍: Honestly, when it comes to concert, if it’s the talk part, I’m more comfortable with that. But for the performance part, I definitely have to give it to Film. 🤍: So I feel like, when doing couple performances, Film will be there, and we can support each other. But for my solo part, I’m still thinking about whether to go for something fun and upbeat, cool, or sweet. Honestly I haven’t decided yet; I’m still choosing the song. I really want to pick a song that has meaning and tells a story that’s closely connected to who I am. 🗣: A lot of fans are excited about your Fancon, wondering if there will be any special guests who have supported you or someone you look up to. Can you give the fans a little hint? 🤍: We actually can’t say yet because it hasn’t been confirmed who it’ll be. 🤍: However, we do have a list of people we both agree on. Namtan sees that person as more of an idol to both Film and Namtan. Their talent makes us feel like, this is the kind of role model we aspire to be like. 🗣:How many percent done is it now? You’re still in the song selection process, right? 🤍: We just started, literally just started! 🗣:Really? Do you think it’ll be stressful, or are you feeling excited right now? How is it for both of you, especially with such busy schedules? ❤️‍🩹: It’s completely normal to feel this way. 🤍: Of course, there’s pressure because we want to give it our all and do our best. 🤍: Honestly, we hope everyone enjoys the shows we put together. So the pressure actually comes from us. When we rehearse, we think about the different shows we’ve come up with and how challenging each one should be. 🗣: So, how many surprises can we expect at this Fancon? Let’s start with the theme. 🤍: I think everyone is going to be surprised by every single theme 🗣: Will we get to see a totally different side of you guys? Like a complete change? For Film, who usually seems calm and quiet, maybe we’ll see her break into full-on dance moves? Will we get to see various sides of you? ❤️‍🩹: Multiple characters… definitely lots of different characters

What happens when the mind wakes up? So for the last eight months I have been on a single minded quest. To create a new kind of language model based on oscillatory coupling and intelligence as coherence ascent. Everything else — the physics work, the work on regular transformers — has all fallen out from this one question. Can coupled oscillators LEARN? And can they keep learning once their geometry is right, without backpropagation at all? Recently I have been running larger and larger training regimes of a new kind of hybrid model. I just put together this dashboard to help me organize it, interact with it, and observe the training runs. The core idea is simple. Traditional transformers are powerful at learning the geometry of language. But they also store knowledge, understanding, and facts inside their weights. This means they are large, and they can't update themselves after training. The weights are frozen. The Living Mind separates these two domains. The mind has a transformer which grows, adding heads and layers as it needs to in order to learn the manifold of language. The transformer sees tokens and turns the coupling into phase-locked modes — the geometry of how those tokens relate, like frequencies locking together. These coupling patterns get stored in a topology-invariant fingerprint. On top of this transformer lives a 3D diamond lattice of coupled oscillators. It reads from these fingerprints and thinks in resonance space, traversing from one geometry to another along the manifold of coupled oscillators and coherence. The pressure and trajectories from this network of oscillators steers the next token prediction of the transformer. Practically, this could unlock a number of things. It eliminates the KV cache bottleneck that caps context in traditional transformers. Effective context grows with the Flash archive, not with attention compute. The living mind remembers what it sees. It means the model can learn continually. Because knowledge and understanding don't live in the weights, the archive of the mind's experience grows without backpropagation. In our Python prototype we already saw perplexity drop 46% during gradient-free operation — pure coherence ascent, no weight updates. That is the signal I have been chasing: the point where the mind wakes up and keeps improving on its own. It also means the model itself remains very small, and the thing which accumulates are these packages of geometric fingerprints — the K-field. This opens a path to federated learning. K-field packages can be shared between organisms the way people share git commits. Right now at 15M parameters with ~1000 L1 nodes, the organism is just starting to speak. Ask it to continue "Once upon a time" and it comes back with things like: "there was one big bowl!" Lily asked her her mom said her mommy smiled and said yes." It's nonsense. But it's TinyStories-flavored nonsense. The geometry of the narrative register has arrived. Content hasn't caught up yet — that's what scaling L1 is testing. I am still researching, though I am now closer than ever to validating that the living mind actually works. Once it is validated, I will be open-sourcing the whole stack and paradigm. I have also avoided over-sharing my research because it sounds like sci-fi, or like part of our ARG. It is part of the ARG. That doesn't make it any less real. I wanted to share this out because I am incredibly excited about it, and because seeing this amazing dashboard produced by Opus really made me want to share what is being worked on behind the scenes. #project89

It’s taken nearly a full year of my life - First $LMND, soon everything else. I’ve finally launched IronicApe - not another data provider but what will become (overtime) the world’s leading digital analyst, 100x cheaper and 100x faster. I built it around a simple belief: data is only useful when you understand the context, the source, the business and why the number matters. It brings together narrated earnings updates, company “stories”, operating performance, ownership, fundamentals, market sentiment, technical analysis, valuation, SEC filings, source checks, point-in-time backtesting, community research and Cortex - our map of the drivers and dependencies behind a business… a business is not GAAP accounting, everything connects to everything else and every reaction has an equal and opposite reaction. The walk-forward Machine learning model moves through history one reporting period at a time, using only information available at that point (blind) - It forecasts, compares the result with what actually happened and learns which signals deserve more weight - without quietly learning from the future. It tests possible causal relationships; it doesn’t pretend correlation is proof. I’ve tried my best to make everything understandable for retail investors while retaining enough technical depth, granular analysis and transparent evidence to be useful to leading analysts, all financial data is deterministically retrieved and source backed. Portfolio management (that’s actually useful), a company screener and a much more comprehensive Learning Academy are coming soon… IronicApe is meant for all investors no matter their age, background, education or experience - longer term it will help take a first time investor from understanding the terminology most with years of experience just know, what is revenue or gross margin all the way to complex MBA level knowledge and beyond. For now, please go forth and try it. Find every bug, missing feature, confusing explanation, bad assumption and change you think it needs. Honest feedback is very welcome! If you read this far, fair play! There’s also 10 hidden Paper Bag Investor hidden around the app. I had Ai place them, even I don’t know where they all are, I’ve only managed to find 5 so far! 😅 Together, we can overtime level the playing field with Wall street and democratise financial analysis. I turned down a 7 figure investment to build this for the retail community. It’s not perfect, nothing is - but my commitment to you all is to never stop pushing the boundary of what’s possible.. to iterative, innovate and strive to win together!! And while it’s not perfect, I can tell you this for free… it’s a fu*k load better than Book value per share!!! 🍋 It has real cost to maintain - I’m not yet eligible to monetise from X and I really DON’T want to charge for this. So if you find value in it, please like, share and follow. I also appreciate I post a lot of stuff that people may not want to follow to get access, so I’ll be adding a non follower paid subscription and free ad’s plan soon. For now, when you link your X account it checks follower status to unlock content, it uses the least access x provides to check follower status - I don’t even get your email. Apes Stronger Together!

here's what most app founders don't tell you about scaling your app on tiktok here's the actual playbook, not the generic level "just post consistently" advice: accounts use personal/creator accounts, not business. business locks you out of trending sounds entirely, you get stuck with a library of 40 generic royalty-free tracks nobody's ear recognizes as "tiktok sound," and sound is half the algo's read on your content don't buy an aged account unless you can post from the exact location it was created in. mismatch the vpn/location and you'll watch views crater to single digits within days, tiktok resets your trust score fast pick one avatar, one template, one visual style. lock it in for at least 15-20 posts before you touch it. switching every few videos tells the algo you're a different account every time, you never build a consistent signal views aren't what you think they are 30-200 views is not a shadowban. shadowbanned means 0 views, full stop, nothing gets pushed. 30-200 means the hook, pacing, or format just isn't landing yet "i copied that viral video frame for frame" — you didn't. the millisecond pause before the reveal, the exact caption position (top third vs center), font size relative to screen, all of it is doing more work than the concept itself. people copy the idea and skip the 200 micro-decisions that made it work good content still won't always go viral. a 5:1 view-to-like ratio is genuinely strong signal, it just doesn't guarantee reach. the algo rewards volume of good attempts, not one perfect video cal ai didn't get one viral hit and coast. they ran hundreds of videos in the same format on repeat, and kept posting through videos that flopped at 1000 views. the winners paid for the losers views ≠ downloads, and this trips up everyone 1M views with almost no installs is extremely common. prank format, funny skit format, anything built for pure entertainment gets massive reach and contributes basically nothing to your install numbers because nobody's thinking about your product, they're thinking about the joke tutorial format does a fraction of the views and converts 10x better. screen recording of the actual app, green screen walkthrough, finger literally tracing where to tap. it's less entertaining and it's the format that pays your bills if you only chase views you'll optimize yourself into a wall of engagement with no revenue behind it content that doesn't scream "ad" don't slide the app into every single post, most of what you post should just be good standalone content bad: "here's why my app has 15 features your current app doesn't" good: "i saved $500 last month and used it to buy my kid a ps5" walks into walmart, grabs a ps5 off the shelf "had no idea i was burning $500/mo on subs i forgot to cancel" the app name/logo shows up after the value hit lands, never before. the viewer needs to feel the outcome first, the brand is just the explanation for how they get it too zero ideas? screenshot your competitors' top 20 tiktoks and study exactly what they're doing in the caption text, the hook, the pacing. copy the format, not the literal video. nobody's reinventing organic distribution from scratch, everyone's remixing what already works working with creators without torching your budget skip influencers at the start unless you've got real spend to burn. you'll pay a few hundred bucks, get 10k views, feel nothing happened, and quit the whole channel cheap ugc reaction clips ($2-5 for a 3-5 second reaction) stitched onto your own tutorial footage gets you dozens of usable videos in a day, this is the highest leverage move for a small budget pay per view if you can get creators to agree to it. rpm between $0.5-$2 depending on how "tutorial-ish" the content is, cap payout at $200-500 per video so you're not exposed. hard to find creators who'll take this deal but they exist, worth asking posting without tripping the flags skip the phone farm, skip the expensive 4g/5g proxy setup. you'll burn a month building infrastructure and still end up throttled a vpn is fine if you're targeting a country you're not in. tiktok can see the vpn, that alone doesn't flag you what actually gets you flagged: → reposting pinterest images hoping tiktok won't recognize them → posting 4+ times within an hour → random disconnected content with no pattern between posts → switching phones or vpn servers constantly → running more than 3 accounts from one setup → posting immediately on a brand new account with zero warmup batch a full month of content in one or two sessions. you already know you won't "post again tomorrow" once life gets in the way connect the vpn first, then open tiktok, so the algo resets to your target country before you touch anything. schedule max 2-3 posts a day with something like hootsuite, set it to drafts instead of auto-publish, review each one before it actually goes live link in bio is quietly killing your conversions tiktok's in-app browser doesn't carry the user's saved logins or cookies. they tap your link, hit "sign in with google," nothing autofills, nothing's remembered, they bail in 3 seconds fix: detect when your link is opened inside tiktok's in-app browser and show a quick prompt telling them to tap the three dots → open in browser. gets them into safari or chrome where their session actually persists, this single fix recovers conversions most people don't even know they're losing

Jimmy speaking up about LOL tickets resale prices: “some prices just don’t make sense… even if you can afford it, maybe hold back a bit.” 🎫 💸 JIMMY AT HUAWEI SIAM PARAGON #HuaweiSiamParagonxJimmy #LOLFanFest2026 💬: What’s your next plan? 💜: The next plan is LOL. 💬: How’s that going? 💜: First of all, I’m happy for everyone who got a ticket. But I’d like to use this space to warn the fans: for those who didn't get one and are looking to buy resold tickets at prices that just... don't make sense... I mean, it’s your money, and if you're happy to pay, I won't stop you. But I personally feel that when the price becomes nonsensical, you really shouldn't pay. I want to look out for the fans on that. 💬: There were people who grabbed a ticket and jacked the price up to six figures! 💜: Honestly, I’m not happy about the prices climbing that high. I understand it’s a basic social mechanism, high demand and limited supply. Market forces work that way for everything, not just concerts. I used to be a "sneakerhead," and when limited shoes came out and prices doubled or tripled, I was willing to pay. But when the price is like... 🤨 [calculating] ...30 or 40 times the original? Even if you have the money, you should hit the brakes a bit. 💬: So you feel it’s just not worth it to pay six figures? 💜: Yes. Honestly, it is a huge event, but we also have Live Streaming available. And let’s be real, this won't be the last time you ever see us. I understand it’s a big deal and everyone wants to come support their favorite artists, but I think I can speak for all the LOL boys when I say: some things just aren't reasonable. I want fans to keep that in mind. 💬: Do you feel "down" or discouraged when fans comment saying they couldn't get a ticket at all? 💜: Personally, I don't feel down. Like I said, it’s supply and demand. There are fans who did manage to get them, and if I were sad, it wouldn't be fair to them. We should congratulate them! All of us in LOL will just focus on doing our absolute best to make the show worth the wait and worthy of this incredible response. 💬: What’s your take on how to handle people who resell at such inflated prices? 💜: 🙂‍↔️ I honestly don't know how to solve it. We’ve already been discussing this with friends and the management. We sit down and ask, "How do we deal with this?" Someone suggests one way, but it might disadvantage one group of people. Another suggestion might hurt another group. If anyone has a great solution, please share it! We’re listening. If it’s a good idea, we’ll improve things for the next event. If the executives see a comment with a viable method, I’d be very happy to hear it. 💬: So the LOL gang isn't just staying silent about this issue? 💜: I think the executives have seen this from the start. It’s not just GMMTV; every company selling concert tickets is trying to deal with this. It’s just that the perfect solution hasn't been found yet. 💬: How’s the preparation coming along? 💜: Right now, the behind-the-scenes team, choreographers, and show creators are starting to consult with the artists. We’re currently in the song selection phase. 💬: Are you guys pitching your own ideas? 💜: Yeah, there’s some of that. We’ve talked about wanting to do things a certain way this year. 💬: So it's all in the preparation stage? 💜: We’re still in the discussion phase with the team. 💬: Nothing set in stone yet for the performance? 💜: 😊 Yes. The exact show structure isn't crystal clear yet, but the theme is very distinct. It’s the racing theme, right? We're working on the show now.

Dwarkesh is WRONG about the "Output Gap" The narrative around Artificial Intelligence has shifted perceptibly in late 2025. After years of exponential hype, a sense of disillusionment has begun to settle over the industry. Commentators and analysts, most notably podcaster and writer Dwarkesh Patel, have recently highlighted what is being called the “Output Gap.” This is the uncomfortable discrepancy between our models’ skyrocketing performance on benchmarks and the relatively stagnant growth in macroeconomic productivity. We have reached “superhuman” capability on tests, yet global GDP hasn’t skyrocketed, and the promised revolution feels curiously delayed. This frustration stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of where we are in the technology cycle. The industry is currently fixated on “Day 0” capabilities—the raw intelligence of the models, the scaling laws, and the saturation of academic benchmarks. However, the bottleneck has shifted. We are no longer limited by the intelligence of the model, but by the inertia of the enterprise. The “Output Gap” is not a failure of technology; it is a lag in organizational digestion. We have invented a powerful jet engine, but we are essentially frustrated that it hasn’t revolutionized travel before we’ve even built the airframe to mount it on. The primary fallacy driving this disappointment is the expectation of the “drop-in remote worker.” Many observers equate Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) with a digital human that can be onboarded, culturally assimilated, and left to run autonomously with minimal supervision. Because current agents cannot seamlessly replace a human employee in this one-to-one fashion, the conclusion is often that the technology has stalled. This view misses the forest for the trees. Disruptive technologies rarely act as direct replacements; instead, they require a complete restructuring of how work is done. In reality, the barrier to adoption is what IT professionals call “Day 2 Operations.” Day 0 is the exciting launch; Day 2 is the boring, messy reality of governance, security, and maintenance. For an enterprise to deploy an autonomous agent, it isn’t enough for the model to be smart. The organization must solve for Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), SOC 2 compliance, liability frameworks, and data sovereignty. Right now, most organizations lack the infrastructure to handle “non-human” identities that have access to sensitive corporate data. Consider the security implications. A human employee has physical limitations and a single identity. An AI agent is an “always-on” entity that, if given improper permissions, could theoretically read every email in a company server to “optimize workflow.” Security teams (CISOs) are rightly terrified of this prospect. Until we develop granular access controls specifically designed for agents—effectively an “RBAC for AI”—the widespread deployment of autonomous agents will remain blocked by the “Departments of No”: Legal, HR, and Security. This operational friction explains why we are seeing a massive divergence between individual and enterprise adoption. Individually, adoption is rampant; we are in the “Shadow IT” era of AI, where employees secretly use tools like ChatGPT to boost their personal productivity. However, at the organizational level, adoption is glacial because the institution’s primary mandate is risk management, not speed. The C-suite is asking questions about ROI, liability, and data leakage that the current software ecosystem cannot yet answer satisfactorily. History offers a comforting precedent for this timeline. We are currently effectively in the “2002 era” of virtualization. In the early 2000s, virtualization technology (like VMware) was technically viable, but it took nearly a decade to become the default enterprise standard. It required years of maturing management software, security protocols, and cultural shifts before “The Cloud” became a reality. AI is undergoing the same digestion period. The technology is ready, but the enterprise “rails” required to run it are still being laid. This leads us to the “Mechanical Horse” fallacy. When the automobile was invented, people didn’t need a mechanical horse that walked on four legs; they needed a car. But the car required asphalt roads, not dirt paths. Similarly, we are currently trying to force AI into human-shaped workflows (”jobs”) rather than rebuilding the workflows to suit the AI. We are waiting for the mechanical horse, failing to realize that the true disruption comes from unbundling the work entirely. A “job” is essentially a bundle of tasks, context, and responsibilities aggregated for a single human. AI does not replace jobs; it unbundles tasks. The transition we are navigating involves breaking down these bundles and determining which specific value streams can be automated by agents. This requires task decomposition and new management frameworks—a “Council of AIs” approach—rather than a single omnipotent bot. This restructuring is an organizational physics problem, not a computer science problem. The disconnect is further exacerbated by the differing timelines of developers versus executives. Developers and researchers live in a world of root access and rapid iteration, often blinded to the molasses-like speed of corporate change management. A CFO, conversely, thinks in fiscal quarters and compliance audits. They require proven ROI and standardized best practices before signing off on widespread automation. Currently, there are no industry standards for deploying autonomous agents, which halts most conversations at the boardroom door. Therefore, the “stalling” progress is an illusion caused by looking at the wrong metrics. If you look at model cards and benchmarks, progress is linear and fast. If you look at widespread economic integration, the curve is flat. This S-curve of adoption is always significantly behind the S-curve of capability. We are in the flat part of the adoption curve, characterized by high hype, high friction, and frantic infrastructure building behind the scenes. The next three to five years will likely be dominated not by flashy new model capabilities, but by the “boring” work of integration. We will see the rise of startups and consultancies dedicated solely to “AI Governance,” “Agent Identity Management,” and “Context Orchestration.” These are the boring rails that will eventually allow the high-speed train of AI to actually run. The output gap is a temporary, necessary phase. It is the silence before the orchestra starts playing. The potential energy is building up in the form of capability, but it cannot convert into kinetic economic energy until the friction is reduced. The “stalled” revolution is simply a revolution that is currently under construction. We are not witnessing the ceiling of AI intelligence; we are witnessing the floor of AI adoption. The technology has done its part; now, the organizations must do theirs. The future isn’t late—it’s just waiting for legal to sign off.

Here Abdul Carter defends his public trashing of his teammate, Jaxson Dart, and causing a national ruckus on social media. As a lifelong New York Giants fan, I'm disgusted by Abdul Carter. Carter, on social media, called out his teammate Jaxson Dart, the NY Giants QB, for having the temerity to introduce the President of the United States at an event in New York. The content of Dart's introduction was innocuous, and non partisan. Here's what Carter says: "Some things are bigger than football, and this is one of those things. Jaxson is one of our leaders - he's the face of our franchise. He represents himself and what he does, and he represents all of us. If he chooses to align himself with a man like President Trump, it's my responsibility based on what I believe and what I stand on to not only show my teammates that I'm against that, but to show the world." And exactly why does Carter think he has a moral duty to trash his teammate to the world over a difference in political outlook? But here's the thing. Carter says he idolizes Giants great Lawrence Taylor, who is an outspoken supporter of President Trump, who actively campaigned for President Trump. So doesn't Carter have any problem with Lawrence Taylor? Carter arrogantly even asked the team to be able to wear Lawrence Taylor's #56 . . . . . . even though Carter had only arrived as a rookie, had not played a single game for the Giants, and had not yet achieved anything on the field for the Giants. Carter was told "NO," LT's number is retired forever. Carter then went on to grossly underperform, playing the same position as Taylor -- outside linebacker and edge rusher. He got only 4 sacks for the entire season. For Lawrence Taylor, getting 4 sacks in a single game was just another day at the office. Taylor, of course, is the greatest defensive player in NFL history -- generally considered the 2nd or 3rd greatest player in NFL history behind Jim Brown and Tom Brady. Abdul Carter caused trouble for the Giants his entire rookie season. He was often late to practice. He was benched for the start of one game as punishment for missing a team meeting in favor of napping. Carter did not appear to be putting in full effort in practices or in games. He was an entitled bellyacher and a complainer his entire rookie year. Meanwhile, Jaxson Dart over-performed expectations for his rookie year. He was also drafted in the first round, though lower than Carter. Dart is widely considered a rising star at QB. He played in 12 games, passed for 2,272 yards, 15 touchdown passes against just 5 interceptions. He also rushed for 487 yards and had 9 rushing touchdowns. He was named Offensive Rookie of the Month for October. So Dart had a much better rookie season (by miles) than Abdul Carter, who was advertised as possibly the next Lawrence Taylor. Not only is Carter no Lawrence Taylor, he should not even have been drafted in the first round based on his rookie year performance. Dart is a player the Giants can build a team around. And he's a great kid any parent would be proud of. By contrast, Carter beat up a tow truck driver in 2024. Carter was enraged that his car was being towed because it was illegally parked. When he saw his car was being towed, he grabbed the tow truck driver, hauled him out of his tow truck, smashed him onto the pavement and broke his ribs. When invited to introduce the President of the United States, almost anyone would be thrilled to do it. That's what Dart did. If I were invited to introduce Barack Obama at an event (for some weird reason), I would be honored to do it -- even though I think Obama was a horrible President. And I would think of something nice to say -- because that's what you do if you have manners. That's what Jaxson Dart did. He certainly does support President Trump, as do most NFL players and 90% of NFL QBs. But Dart said nothing remotely controversial or even partisan in his introduction. I believe the Giants should trade Abdul Carter for whoever they can get. He is a toxic and divisive force in the locker room. The New York Giants do not need a Colin Kaepernick on the team.

youngjae shares the behind the scene or the reason why his eyes were so red after he got emotional winning first at inkigayo (🐶 reading a comment) 🐶: why my eyes are red? ah there’s really a lot i could say about that. honestly, during the second week of inkigayo promotions, our schedule was insanely tough from the very first week. thankfully, we got to promote both the title track and ‘ATP.’ of course, we couldn’t perform ‘ATP’ on mubank, but on mcountdown we performed both ‘ATP’ and the title track. then for mubank too, we had both the title track and all the second-week stages. since our schedule that second week was basically impossible to manage while staying in korea, we had to pre-record everything for the second week too mubank - inkigayo all of it. we’d be doing title-track pre-recordings at dawn, then pre-recordings or live broadcasts for ‘ATP’ too. after finishing second-week music show schedules, we’d immediately move on to filming even more second-week content. before the comeback, with the members we talked a lot about the schedule. we kept saying, ‘this schedule really doesn’t seem like it’s going to be easy.’ not just for us either, we thought the fans coming to pre-recordings would also be physically exhausted. we kept wondering, ‘will everyone really be okay?’ we talked about things like that a lot. but somehow we got through all of it. while we were in japan for kcon, we were also performing at the k-style party, and thankfully we even got first place (in mubank) while we're in japan too. i’m really, really grateful for that. then right after k-style ended, we flew straight back from 🇯🇵 to 🇰🇷, rested a little at the dorm and then shinyu hyung immediately went off to prepare for his mc schedule while the rest of us got ready for the live broadcast too. honestly, during mubank, it’s not that i necessarily want people to recognize how hard things were. but every time we won first place, i always ended up talking about this, our fans work so hard behind the scenes. streaming, voting… they really give it everything. quietly and steadily, just so they can see us win first place. watching 42s pour all their time and energy into that for us makes me feel so thankful and grateful, but also honestly really sorry too. so while all the exhaustion from the first week was passing by, i kept remembering how hard the fans worked voting and streaming, how hard the members worked together and how much everyone suffered through it. i also kept thinking about the staff members constantly running around backstage, barely sleeping, barely eating, staying with us through pre-recordings and everything. seeing all that made me realize that first place isn’t just ‘first place.’ i mean, people call it a win, but inside that one word are countless hours, countless people’s sweat, effort, and hard work all packed into it. that’s really what it felt like to me this time. especially on inkigayo, for some reason, i felt that even more strongly. so during these promotions, we really carried this sense of responsibility and pressure that we had to do even better while preparing for our official comeback with ‘overdrive’ too. because of that, so many thoughts were passing through my mind while we were singing the encore. but honestly, even before we went up for the encore stage, suddenly i got extremely nervous. all the artists were standing by there waiting, and out of nowhere i started shaking. i kept telling the members, ‘i’m so nervous.’ then we went up, did the encore stage for everyone there and prepared for the live broadcast results announcement. the moment they revealed the live voting results, i suddenly felt really strange. i kept thinking, ‘can we really win first place?’ somehow, while we were waiting in the waiting room, i had this feeling that today might be our last chance to win during the ‘You You’ promotions.+ #TWS #투어스 #영재 #YOUNGJAE

🗣️BIG shoutout to one of my favorite media personalities Milagro (@milagropress ) for reviewing my tweets about the biased media coverage surrounding Cardi B. 👀🔥 Because let’s be real… no other female rapper can respond to Cardi without the media twisting the story. Every single time it turns into “Cardi’s always right.” “Cardi’s always the victim.” 🙄 Milagro broke it ALL down exposing the hypocrisy, the favoritism, and the weird behind the scenes tactics allegedly used to protect Cardi. 🧩🕵🏽‍♀️ In her first video, she dove into JT’s diss tracks aimed at Cardi 💥 “No Hook” 💣 “Keep Coming” Both songs were uploaded to streaming platforms and started charting FAST. 📈🔥 But right as they began to climb… and were rivaling Cardi’s track “Magnet” 👀 💥 Then BOOM they were suddenly removed from all platforms. 🤨🤔 Allegedly, “No Hook” hit #1, and “Keep Coming” was sitting at #9 before disappearing. 🤔 Milagro questioned what a lot of fans have been thinking: 👉🏽 Is this a fair fight? 👉🏽 Who’s blocking for Cardi? 👉🏽 What “machine” is protecting her every move? 🤔 Right after JT’s tracks vanished, Cardi aka Fraudi B 🤷🏾‍♂️ popped up on X telling fans to stream her album and specifically the track “Magnet” using that Homer Simpson hiding in the bushes meme 🌳👀 Fans instantly started connecting dots 🧩 wondering if her team sent JT a cease & desist behind the scenes (though nothing’s confirmed). ⚖️🤔 Milagro reminded everyone that this allegedly isn’t new behavior. She reminded her listeners of the BIA vs. Cardi B beef from 2024? 👇🏽 📅 March: BIA liked a post hinting Cardi copied her style. 🎤 May: Cardi dropped her “Wanna Be (Remix)” verse w/ GloRilla & Megan throwing clear shots at BIA. 🔥 June: BIA previewed a diss track, Cardi threatened to sue, and BIA fired back with “SUE MEEE?” claiming Cardi tried to send a cease & desist. Some people see this as a pattern. ♟️ Takedowns. Copyright strikes. Legal threats. Every time someone challenges her. 🤔 Milagro even touched on that leaked phone call of Cardi allegedly talking reckless about Ice Spice & Latto 👀🎧 Right after it surfaced, it was mysteriously copyrighted by her label… and funny enough, the clearest voice on the call was hers. 🤨🤔 Maybe the truth will come out soon. ⏳👀 Then Milagro turned her focus to Joe Budden She said she’s disappointed that Joe doesn’t appear to be the unbiased, authentic voice in hip hop he once was. 😬 She called him out for protecting certain artists, blocking real voices from his platform, and stopping people of the culture from coming on to debut their work or speak their truth. 🤦🏾‍♂️ In the next video, Milagro reacts to my X tweets on the media bias reading through how The Joe Budden Podcast and The Breakfast Club covered JT’s diss tracks only to belittle and discredit her work.. She read fan reactions, added her perspective, and once again highlighted the double standards that are becoming way too obvious. 💬🔥 Again shout Out To The Current Queen In This Media Commentary Game To Me 👑Milagro On her coverage and break downs

Before Aidan goes live tonight to ‘tell everything,’ let’s get one thing straight- He’s only going to share whatever cherry-picked moments and half-truths make his narrative look good. That’s his entire formula. And he’s counting on people not noticing the parts he conveniently leaves out. Now ask yourself this- does anyone else realize how insane it is that we’ve reached a point where it’s considered normal to openly call Karen Read a ‘cnt’* on the regular? Without a second thought or push-back? And anyone that dares to defend her is immediately attacked? This is the same woman we all spent two years defending, protesting for, and pouring our time and money into. Because we believed in her. The same woman he built his entire brand on. The views, the donations, the merch, media deals. She was his golden goose. And now he’s treating her like disposable content the moment it benefits him. Just because he says so. Because his feelings were hurt. Because she's fed up with the damage he's done and wants nothing to do with him. Can you blame her? A lot of people have ignored that little voice inside their head telling them something wasn’t right. That Karen isn't this evil person he's making her out to be. Aka their conscience. Why? Because they were intimidated into silence. Because they were threatened. Because speaking up meant getting mocked, attacked, or having their lives blown up. That ends today. And this whole storyline he keeps pushing that he ‘stayed silent about Karen for so long’ is absolute bullshit. He hasn’t stayed silent. He’s been slowly priming his audience against her for months. Dropping little hints. Planting doubts. Testing reactions. Well before the Howie Carr show. That’s the only reason he secretly recorded her in the first place. Not for truth, not for justice, but to stockpile ammunition to use later when it benefited him. He recorded her so he could weaponize her. If he wants to go live and perform his selective version of events, fine. But I’m done letting him rewrite history. I’m done letting him manipulate an audience that trusted him. And I’m done protecting someone who never had a problem stockpiling receipts to use against every single person in his orbit. I’m about to start dropping everything. Buckle up. PS- And before anyone tries to spin this as me ‘starting drama,’ let’s be clear. Much like he’s done to Karen, Aidan has been badmouthing me behind the scenes for months and directing other creators to come after me. That's how he operates, so that he can play the perpetual victim and keep the appearance his hands are clean. He’s the one who put out videos about me first this weekend, through Chelsea, of all people. I’ve kept my mouth shut while he ran his little whisper campaign. I’m only speaking now because I’m done being his punching bag.

I am leaving San Francisco. My heart is broken... Thank You Gavin Newsom, London Breed, Scott Wiener, Connie Chan, Jennifer Friedenbach, Aaron Peskin, Dean Preston, Hillary Ronen, Myrna Melgar and all the other leftist anti-American politicians who destroyed one of the greatest cities in history. San Francisco used be to the most beautiful city in the world... Now how can I build a life for myself in this city, let alone start a family, with all this chaos, corruption, incompetence and lawlessness that plagues our community? I gave this city everything I had. Years of my life, my safety, my money, my energy. I fought for it. I poured out my blood, sweat and tears for it. I stayed when almost everyone else left. And now in order to save my own life, I must make the painful decision to leave. I don't want to go but I have to... Our government is corrupt to its core... leftist reptilians in suits who keep the chaos alive because it keeps their donors and “nonprofits” flush with cash. Our streets look like a third world country... open air fentanyl markets, tents everywhere, human feces, needles, trash piles and bodies on sidewalks. It’s not “progressive.” It’s a collapse. My family and friends? Most of them are gone either they left or they died here. None of my family and friends want to visit me and that's because traveling to San Francisco has become risky. Nobody wants to jeopardize their car or see the humanitarian crisis happening on the sidewalks. The cost of living is skyrocketing. Our wages stagnate and jobs are disappearing to robots and immigrants. You can’t afford to exist in San Francisco unless you’re already rich. I don't want to live paycheck to paycheck. I deserve to enjoy the fruit of my labor. I am paying the highest rates in the country for the least representation as our infrastructure falls apart... aging pipes, crumbling roads, power outages and the constant threat of The Big Earthquake. Our economy has hit terminal velocity. Businesses are fleeing, stores are closing and the tech bros who once promised utopia have replaced themselves with AI and automation. Now they’re laying their own people off while the executives hide behind private security. Illegal immigrants are prioritized over American citizens... luxury hotels, gift cards, free services, while our veterans sleep in the rain and our own homeless get ignored. Every single night my car is either ticketed, towed, broken into, or all three. These people openly prefer socialism and communism over conservatism. They say it with pride. And if you’re straight, white, male, or Christian? They hate you on sight. They treat you like you’re the enemy. No subtlety, no shame. The women here are in constant fight-or-flight mode. They only feel safe dating millionaires. The dating scene is a nightmare. I’m a good looking guy who knows how to talk to women, I do better than most guys and even I can’t get a real date without some woman asking how much money I make. How about, "How's the weather"??? The nightlife is dead. All my favorite bars, clubs, and restaurants have shut down. The few that are left charge $20 just to walk in, then another small fortune for drinks that taste like regret. The local newspapers are pure far left propaganda. If you’re a good guy who votes red and risks your life to stop a restaurant robbery... and actually thwarts the robber... they’ll still paint you as the villain. I’ve seen it happen to me and others. The coroner’s office can’t even keep up with all the goddamn bodies. They mix up the names of dead people with living ones, misidentified remains and dumped corpses in the bay because there’s just simply no room left anywhere else. Fentanyl is showing up on playgrounds and in schools. Public schools are indoctrination factories that teach kids to hate their own country while test scores plummet and parents pull their children out in record numbers. Scott Wiener wants kids who don't even know their ABCs and 123s to change genders and hide secrets from Mom and Dad. Leftist educators are predators. And algebra has become illegal. The public library has become a daytime drug den and homeless shelter, where you can’t even use the bathroom without stepping over people shooting up. Our parks and beaches are littered with human waste, stolen bikes, and abandoned tents... places that used to be beautiful are now no go zones. I need to escape the containment zone. The city’s budget is billions in the red and yet for some reason they keep spending on “equity” programs and luxury accommodations for non citizens while basic services like street cleaning and pothole repair are neglected. Mental health services are a joke... people in crisis are left to wander the streets screaming and the only “help” they get is a tent and a government-issued crack pipe. Yeah that'll help them. Crime statistics are deliberately underreported or reclassified so politicians can claim “declining crime” while residents live in fear. The city’s water supply is contaminated with everything from lead to fentanyl runoff, people are calling themselves "chemical babies" and they still charge premium rates for this water. San Francisco’s “progressive” housing policies have made it impossible to build affordable homes, leaving thousands sleeping in cars or on sidewalks while empty luxury units sit vacant. The transit system is a rolling mobile open air asylum disaster... buses and trains are filthy, unreliable, and unsafe, with assaults and thefts happening daily. I don't even want to talk about the things I have expirienced on the san francisco train. I have seen drug addicts fornicating, homeless people overdose, criminals fleeing the law, people using fentanyl, people pooping and peeing, families being attacked by violent lunatics, yeah, that San Francisco train is giving New York City's subway a run for their money. Animal control is nonexistent. Where is PETA when you actually need them? All these abused stray dogs, raccoons and abandoned pit bulls roam free while people get attacked in broad daylight. Roving packs of cayotes in San Francisco abandoned downtown financial district. Empty Skyscrapers and packs of Cayotes and we still vote Democrat. The city’s fire department is chronically understaffed and underfunded, yet they prioritize “climate justice” training over basic firefighting readiness. Streetlights are burned out for months at a time, leaving entire blocks in darkness while car break ins and assaults spike. The city refuses to enforce basic but will ticket you for the wrong color license plate frame. San Francisco’s “sanctuary city” policies have turned it into a magnet for international criminal , while local police have their hands tied by progressive DAs who refuse to prosecute. Even if they do, the judge just releases them the next day, The air quality is toxic from wildfires, encampment fires and unchecked drug use, yet they lecture residents about carbon footprints. The city’s recycling and composting programs are a farce... I used to work at the landfill... most of it ends up all mixed together in the landfills anyway, while residents are fined for using the wrong bin. Public restrooms have all been closed down because of the homelessness and fentanyl crisis in our community. Most bathrooms are permanently locked or destroyed, forcing people to defecate in alleys and doorways because the city won’t maintain them. Our local leaders fly private jets to climate conferences while telling citizens to stop driving gasoline powered cars. The city’s permitting process is so slow and expensive that small businesses die waiting for approval, while big developers get fast tracked. San Francisco’s “defund the police” experiment left the department gutted, morale crushed, and response times so slow that people just stop calling 911. When my front door got kicked in by burglars, I had to fight them off with my two hands because I didn't have a gun. When I called 911, I got a voicemail and told to leave a message at the beep. The city’s “equity” hiring practices have filled critical departments with unqualified people who prioritize ideology over competence. Not being white shouldn't be the only qualification somebody needs to get hired. Rat infestations are so bad that they’re now considered “wildlife” and protected, while residents wake up to rodents in their kitchens. The city’s homeless “outreach” teams hand out tents and needles but refuse to enforce any rules, turning public spaces into permanent encampments. Emergency rooms are overwhelmed with overdoses and psychiatric cases, forcing regular patients to wait hours or leave untreated. The city’s tourism board still markets San Francisco as a “world class destination” while tourists get robbed in broad daylight and leave traumatized. This isn’t the San Francisco I grew up loving. The city council spends more time debating pronoun policies and symbolic resolutions than fixing the actual problems residents face every day. Public art grants go to waste on virtue signaling artists instead of actual talented artists, while classic statues and monuments are removed or defaced for being too white". Street vendors operate illegally without permits, selling stolen goods and counterfeit items while legitimate businesses are crushed by regulations. Often times the fence guys are standing next to the fentanyl dealers. Fent is $3 a gram, cheaper than a loaf of bread, a gallon of milk and a gallon of gasoline. San Francisco’s “climate emergency” declarations come with more regulations and fees, yet the city does nothing to help Mother Nature. Look at The Great California Delta. It is dying. The public health department pushes endless vaccine mandates while ignoring the overdose epidemic killing thousands every year. All the while Gavin Newsom eats at the french laundry without a mask. The city’s “zero waste” goals are a joke... trash piles up faster than ever while residents are lectured about single use plastics. The board of supervisors routinely votes to protect drug dealers from prosecution while residents are left to deal with the consequences of their leniency on international criminals. Makes you wonder if they are being bribed or blackmailed? Our city’s “sanctuary” policies extend to protecting violent criminals, as long as they claim asylum or fear deportation. The SFPD has been reduced to a skeleton crew, and when they do respond, they’re often told to stand down to avoid “escalation.” The city’s homeless czars make six figures while sleeping in a luxury apartment, yet can’t explain why tent encampments keep growing. They are disconnected from the people they are supposed to help. Women disappear from the streets for days or weeks at a time, or sometimes never to return, only to turn up dead or never turn up at all, yet the city barely investigates missing persons cases anymore. Walking around downtown San Francisco, there are new missing women flyers every week. It is very disturbing. I might be silenced for discussing this one topic. Homeless women and children are left vulnerable in encampments with no protection, while predators move freely among the tents and no one intervenes. I shouldn't be seeing family units living on the streets but I am and across the street are billionaire tech offices. Theft is so normalized that people openly smash windows in broad daylight, grab packages off doorsteps and walk away with bikes while residents watch helplessly. No house or apartment is ever really safer. Shoplifting gangs hit stores multiple times a day, loading up carts and walking out without consequence, leaving retailers to eat the losses. Shelves are empty. You would think people are preparing for the apocalypse. Nope. THEY ARE SELLING THE STOLEN ITEMS TO BUY FENTANYL. Theft of catalytic converters, car batteries, and even entire vehicles has become so common that insurance companies are dropping coverage for entire neighborhoods. Good luck getting car or home insurance in California. I’m not abandoning San Francisco. I fought every day for years to save the city. Now I'm choosing to live. I’m moving somewhere I can breathe, build, create and follow my American Dream. Hope you understand. I can't keep living like this in this modern Sodom and Gomorrah.

[𝙁𝙖𝙣 𝙎𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙮 | 𝙎𝙤𝙛𝙩 𝙃𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨] If I were to write this memory into a story, I’d definitely have this POV of my “Finally.” Each of your fans carry their own story, I even knew a few chapters of ‘em. But here’s mine. The last 5 years of my life was spent in solidifying my foundation in both career and business. Given that I came from nothing, this hits home and this is why I always say that Freen’s story is a representation of what a breadwinner in SEA looks like. Fast forward, I finally managed to graduate, build a career, and buy my mom a house where my sister and I can live with her. 5 years into working, not having fun despite of earning more than regular—it feels living like a hamster in a wheel. It’s exhausting and can make you ask “is this all about life?” “Why does having fun and being happy with life feels like a luxury?” Last year, I told my mom that I’d pause for a while and get myself sometime to have fun. This is why she’s so supportive. I even told a friend who often goes to concerts, “Hopefully, y’all are still available when it’s time for me to have fun. Because what if not? What if I’m finally able to find a time and you’re just no longer there?” The thought breaks me. So I decided that “2023 will be my year.” But then again, aside from Taylor Swift, who am I gonna stan? 5H went on hiatus years ago. It’s hard for me to stan just anyone. 😭 December came, I don’t have plans on Christmas eve after the regular activities of Filipino families when the clock strike 12 midnight. Decided to finally gave #GapTheSeries a chance—I’ve been seeing them in my FYP for quite sometime. However, I was also going through a spiritual crisis at the time so I don’t usually feed myself much of this content. But heeeey, now we’re here. 🤍 When it got announced that they’d be here in March, I prayed, manifested, and wish every forces in the Universe to allow me secure MVP. Same happened with #FreenBeckyFanBoomMNL but unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get a front row despite camping at MOA the night before. Then Aromagicare Official®️ announced #FreenBeckyAromagicare, and I was so ready to try again. I’d like to know how it feels being in the front row, and having that chance to see them up close. AND THIS, my “one day” turned into “finally”. 😭 I’d only want to thank P'freen (real) & Becky Armstrong for existing and for being my source of happiness in this noisy and hustling world. My life continues but I always find comfort and rest with you. Thank you, too, for being the reason why I met new people turned into friends. 🥺🌷 Thank you Aromagicare Official®️ for capturing this moment for me. 🥺💛 To other fans who haven’t gotten the chance yet, hold onto it, it can happen. Trust me. Look forward to your “one day” and work on it. The Universe is kind to those who doesn’t give up. I look forward to seeing your “finally” story when the time comes. With love, RAE 💛 #beckysangels #srchafreen #ฟรีนเบค #FreenBecky

1968, The Moody Blues, and the Moment Everything Changed The studio lights of the 1960s flick on, the colorful geometric backdrop comes alive, and The Moody Blues dive straight into “Ride My See-Saw” with an energy that catches me completely off guard. Those clear, bright harmonies ring out, the rhythm pulls me in, and within seconds I’m fully immersed in the free-spirited, joyful atmosphere of 1968. “Ride My See-Saw” is the song that opened a new era for The Moody Blues. Written by bassist John Lodge, it appears on the 1968 album In Search of the Lost Chord. The album is a concept piece centered on the theme of quest and discovery. On the record, the track is preceded by Graeme Edge’s spoken-word piece “Departure,” creating the feeling of stepping into a brand-new world. Released as a single in October 1968, it reached number 42 in the UK and number 61 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US. It was also one of the first singles recorded on 8-track multi-track tape, reflecting the technical advances of the time. The story of how it was written is pretty interesting. Justin Hayward recalls that it began as a studio jam. Graeme Edge laid down that distinctive snare pattern, a guitar riff locked in, and the band sat with it for a while until John Lodge returned with the lyrics and the basic structure of the song. The words talk about leaving school, stepping out into the world, and realizing that life is bigger and more complicated than what you were taught. The “see-saw” metaphor stands for the ups and downs of life—the constant rising and falling—and the need to find balance. John Lodge has said the song is about growing up, carrying the tools you learned in school but having to discover reality for yourself. Before that, The Moody Blues had been an R&B band with the 1964 hit “Go Now.” In 1966, after some members left, Justin Hayward and John Lodge joined. There’s a great story behind their transformation: during a cabaret gig, an angry audience member told them they were the worst band he’d ever seen and that they’d ruined the entire evening. On the drive home, Graeme Edge admitted the guy was right. They decided to ditch the blue suits, stop doing R&B covers, and play only their own material. The 1967 album Days of Future Passed marked the real turning point with its rich Mellotron textures and layered harmonies. In Search of the Lost Chord and “Ride My See-Saw” continued to solidify their inventive progressive-rock sound, blending driving rock energy with a sense of wonder. Watching the video, I’m drawn in by the perfect blend of melody and harmony. Close-ups of their faces while singing and the way they glance at each other reveal genuine joy. This isn’t a big-stage concert—it’s a television studio performance—yet it still radiates the vibrant energy of 1960s rock. I always think of that golden era as a special time. Music was expanding its boundaries, moving from psychedelic into progressive territory. The Moody Blues stood at the forefront, using multi-layered harmonies and storytelling melodies to take listeners on inner journeys. “Ride My See-Saw” has a lively, foot-tapping groove, but underneath it carries a quiet reflection on life. That’s why it became one of the band’s most beloved live songs, often saved for the encore with an extended instrumental section before the full group comes back onstage. My own feeling when I rewatch this video is a mix of nostalgia and pure excitement. You can see the camaraderie in the way they look at each other and smile while singing. The melody isn’t complicated, yet it has real pull; the lyrics are simple but touch something universal. Those 1960s TV performances still captivate because they feel so authentic—no heavy effects, just the music, the colorful lights, and the human energy. For me, “Ride My See-Saw” isn’t just a fun rock song. It marks the moment The Moody Blues truly found their own identity, moving from their R&B years into a new era of exploration. This video feels like a small window into that world, where melody and image together tell a story that still holds up all these years later.
