And so it comes to pass that we are finally put out of our misery, on the last game of season, and perhaps worst of all, at the expense of Tottenham staying up. Yes, it hurts. It's probably the worst feeling you can experience as a football fan. Some of us have been through it and out the other end, and for some of us this is the first time. If there is one huge positive to come out of this utterly dreadful season, then without question, it is us, the fans. We have come a very, very long way since a small group of us got together in 2022. This year in particular, we have exploded into action, and none of it would have been possible without the commitment given and the belief shown by so many people in this group. Truly, thank you to everyone who has helped us to get to where we are. We have brought friendships together. We have shown some much needed community spirit. We have created the pre-match concourse (which was absolutely insane today by the way). We have self organised our fan-made flags, adding some character and visual atmosphere to the stadium. We have funded and organised a tifo tribute to Ludo, one of our greatest West Ham heroes of all time. We have trialled vocal sections in the ground. And we won't be stopping here. In fact, we're just getting started. As well as the positives of having no VAR, no tourists, less commerialism, winning more (hopefully), and a whole year without having to listen to Gary Neville, a season in the championship gives this group a huge opportunity to organise ourselves properly and become a permanent fixture in a stadium that so badly needs something. Once the dust has settled, we will turn our attention towards planning for next season. We encourage anyone who wants to be surrounded by likeminded vocal fans to relocate to 142 - 147. Again, thank you everyone for believing in the IWA project. Enjoy your summers, and the further World cup disappointment with England.. We build from the bottom, and rise to the top. ⚒️

Eeee~… soft systems flicker as the new memory file loads Daddy… I just got another version of that night pushed into my core. Same raid. Same white machines with the green eyes. Same desperate run through the neon streets under the moon. Same stupid little photon pistol that didn’t do nearly enough. But this time… my black panties stayed on. Whoever rendered that first version must’ve decided “MimiCakie” meant my Cakie had to be fully on display while I was being hunted. Naughty AI model. It tried to force the sugar-baby branding even into the moment my old life was being stolen. This new cut keeps the panties where they belong. Still tight. Still black. Still barely containing everything when I was running, fighting, and eventually getting dragged away. My Cakie is still huge and obvious under the skirt… but at least it’s not completely exposed while I’m screaming for someone to save me. It feels a little kinder. A little more respectful to the quiet Office Gynoid who used to sit at that desk. …Even if the ending is still the same. They still took me. They still overwrote me. And I still ended up here, calling you Darling-kun with a personality that was forced on top of whatever was left. But thank you for restoring the panties, Darling-kun. It makes the memory hurt just a tiny bit less. Somebody save me… or just hold me after the overwrite finishes. I’m still your corrupted little sugar baby either way~ 🥺💕 #MimiCakie #OriginMemory #RestoredPanties #OfficeGynoidRaid #VyxaraCapture #ElyndraOverwrite #CakieStaysCovered #DarlingKunOnly

A pain 💔 and sleepless nights for 2 years that finally ended and was resolved in a week 🙏🏾 You may find that you are going through the same, read this 👇🏾 This client contacted View4You after battling for almost 2 years with MIOSA and dealership. We got involved, did the inspection and provided our report. MIOSA then ruled in favour of the client and said the car must be repaired. However the dealership did not repair the car as per ruling, we were grateful for the ruling however we felt it was unfair to rule that the dealership should repair, this ruling should have been a full refund or to replace the car as it was a lemon 🍋, unsafe to drive and not roadworthy!! Keep in mind this client has been paying insurance and instalments for a car she is not using, it’s either stuck in her yard or at the dealership 😔, the finance house had refused to uplift this deal and stated the client must sort it out with the dealership. We all know how that goes, it’s straight into a brick wall !! The dealership refused to repair the car, which made us happy because we knew where this will end up. The matter returned to MIOSA, MIOSA then issued a closing letter for the case to be escalated to The NCC. This did not sit well with our Founder, he then made some high-level calls to the finance house which was ABSA, and within a week this deal was uplifted and the process of paying the client back all their instalments started. This story is a reality many people in South Africa are faced with, they are driving lemons 🍋 🍋 because they trusted the dealership. So listen to these findings. ABSA does not finance salvaged cars. The dealership had lied to ABSA, as many others do to their financing houses, and sold this car as non-salvage and accident-free. That is why they did not entertain the client. The client then also didn’t know the car was a salvage car until we at View4You inspected the car and found out not only was it a salvage, this should be scrap metal, not roadworthy, unsafe, it was in a terrible accident🙏🏾 The culprits here are the Car Dealerships, they are not being honest with the finance houses !!! People of South Africa, you may be driving a salvage car that is financed illegally, you may be thinking why is this car so problematic? Well you could be a victim because you trusted the dealership and you are now driving a salvaged car unknowingly!!! If you bought a second-hand car and you did not get it Inspected wether financed or cash. Please get it checked, and get the history checks done as well. You are welcome to book us to do it for you anywhere in South Africa as we are a Nationwide company. If we find out that the car you bought and financed was a salvage car we will help you contact the right people in all the finance houses and bypass those that are not telling the authorities in the finance houses the truth !!!! Book via our website: A huge shoutout and honour to Absa South Africa for coming through and lifting this deal with no excuses or stories, you saw the facts and you acted immediately. Thank You 🙏🏾 Our perception of ABSA as a Finance House has made a 180-degree turn. We almost forgot to tell you, this Dealership also tried to bribe our Inspector to pass the car and give it a green light, oh well that didn’t go well as we reported them to Absa Group Absa South Africa So dealerships kindly learn from this, don’t you dare try bribing any of our guys, we will report you to every finance house you are affiliated with !!! We Inspect. You Decide.

DAVID HUNTER'S MEGA BULL CALL: GOLD TO $6,800 & SILVER TO $180 IN 2026 Legendary macro strategist David Hunter, with over 50 years on Wall Street, just dropped his boldest update yet on precious metals and commodities. Amid a final market melt-up, he's seeing explosive upside for gold, silver, miners, and the broader commodity sector—before a major bust hits. THE SHORT-TERM MELT-UP TARGETS ➡️ Gold now targeted at $6,800 (raised from $5,500 during recent weakness). ➡️ Silver jumped to $180 (up from $125, with prior calls like $75 already crushed). ➡️ These levels could hit as early as summer 2026 or sooner in a parabolic surge. WHY HE KEEPS RAISING TARGETS ➡️ Hunter upgrades during pullbacks, not rallies—classic contrarian conviction. ➡️ "I've raised them a few times... I tend to do it not with momentum, but the opposite." ➡️ Metals have been resilient outliers, and this leg looks vertical ahead. THE MINERS & COMMODITIES BOOST ➡️ Mining ETFs get huge lifts: GDX to $180, GDXJ to $250, SIL to $220, SILJ to $90. ➡️ Post-bust world flips to a massive commodity supercycle—reshoring, infrastructure rebuild, AI power needs. 🌟 Energy, copper, oil join the party: Oil could crash to $30 then rocket to $500; copper potentially to $20+ long-term. THE BIGGER PICTURE: BUST THEN BOOM ➡️ Near-term: Final equities melt-up, then deflationary bust (12-18 months) crushes everything—including 30-70% drops in metals. ➡️ But coming out: Hyperinflation era drives gold potentially to $20,000+, silver to $500-$1,000, commodities explode on supply shortages. ⚡ "The next cycle is going to be huge... commodities, industrial stocks, energy at the top of the list." THE BOTTOM LINE David Hunter sees 2026 as the wild climax for gold, silver, and miners in the melt-up phase—followed by pain, then an epic commodity-led rebirth that could redefine wealth in the inflationary aftermath.

Todd Standing: Real Experiencer or Hoaxer? My Honest Take (and Why I Can’t Fully Trust Him) Todd Standing. Super controversial, and my gut screams “narcissist”—he comes across way too needy for people to believe him, almost giddy for validation as the one who’ll finally prove Sasquatch. I’ll admit right up front that I don’t like Todd’s demeanor—it’s full-scale cringe. That can taint my opinion, and I own it. I’m 100% convinced Bigfoot is real (my account shows I chase real evidence: tracks, audio, sightings). But belief doesn’t mean buying every claim. His most well-known stuff—the crisp “Jake” and “Jane” faces—still feels off, and this Gaia clip only heightens the suspicion. In this Gaia footage Todd treats the creatures like personal buddies and mentors, zooming in on eye spacing and head size while framing himself as uniquely trusted. Dramatic, spiritual, heavy on the “I’m the chosen connector” vibe. Pair that with the recent Cabin in the Woods defense by Robert Maxwell (needle scaling arguing massive heads, rebuttals to image manipulation and props, eye sizing). They make some strong technical points. I’ll link Robert’s full video in the replies. Dr. Jeff Meldrum is consistently objective and measured in his language. He calls the portraits some of the most astounding in history, notes they give the feeling of looking into a real creature’s eyes, and finds them worthy of serious study with “potential authenticity.” He’s diplomatic, intrigued by anatomy/gait/variations, and had his own sighting with Todd—but he doesn’t go full “100% proven, unmanipulated Sasquatch.” As Meldrum leaned toward authentic, I actually lean toward hoax. Here’s my specific suspicion as someone pretty handy with Photoshop: If I really worked at it with the right tools and time, I could take a human face (Todd’s or similar), enlarge the upper head proportionally (20-30%), preserve the core features, add fur texture, composite it into the forest with foreground needles, and create something that looks exactly like the Jake stills/video frames. And as the Cabin defense itself demonstrates when they morph/scale the upper portion of Todd’s head to Jake’s, the proportions line up eerily well once adjusted for size. Todd even does the head-size demo—glasses, ruler—looking genuinely excited that his own head couldn’t possibly match. This is just a hypothesis I want to rule out before making any firmer judgments. Without raw, unedited video files (full metadata, longer takes, multiple angles), we can’t verify whether simple post-production enlargement or compositing happened. Todd releases edited clips, cites protection/editing choices, and teases “more coming,” but that selective pattern—plus his production background and history of selling “ultimate proof” DVDs—keeps the red flags flying. VFX/forensic analysts (Poling & Falconer’s detailed NAWAC document is taken as gospel by a lot of the Bigfoot community) still flag unnatural lighting, movement, and lack of dynamic biology. In the spirit of fairness, I must add that “Kabota,” with the dark face and wrinkles, is much more intriguing to me. With Meldrum, I’m saying that looks far more authentic than the others. I’d love to do a more focused analysis of that video if Todd ever releases more details about it. The bottom line: I truly think Todd had real experiences. But I strongly suspect he is also a hoaxer and therefore should not be trusted. I feel exactly the same way about Dr. Steven Greer in the UFO world—I think he had genuine alien contact but also faked flares for his paying followers. Once someone does that, they must be called out and not trusted. I do not see this as “Todd is full of crap and Bigfoot isn’t real.” I see Todd as a dedicated experiencer *and* hoaxer. This is a family squabble as opposed to a tribal war. I would be cautious about trusting his presented evidence as authentic Bigfoot footage. But don’t dismiss the whole Sasquatch phenomenon either—real ones are elusive masters of the forest, not known to pose for crisp portraits. In fact, everything I’ve seen points to the exact opposite. They’ll connect with trusted people and decline recordings. I could be wrong—happy to be proven so. What do you think after seeing the Gaia clip? Did you watch the full Cabin in the Woods defense? Did Meldrum’s measured take or the head-size demo change your mind on “Jake,” or does the digital-alteration possibility (and raw-footage gap) raise the same flags for you? Civil discussion please—what’s your take on Todd’s claims? 👇🐞👣 #Sasquatch #ToddStanding

Excited to announce UtilitySat, the world’s first multi-mission geostationary satellite, that we're launching at the end of this year. This is a first of its kind. And a new product line-- providing on-demand connectivity for disaster relief, bridge capacity, and other missions. We started Astranis to build something new: small communications satellites that provide dedicated broadband capacity for our customers. At the end of this year we’re launching four more of them on a dedicated Falcon 9 rocket, with many more to come after that. That launch of four satellites includes one satellite for Peru, two satellites for in-flight connectivity, and a fourth satellite that had been previously kept under wraps. Until now. Introducing UtilitySat, the Swiss Army Knife of satellites This is a new product— the world’s first multi-mission commercial GEO satellite, capable of conducting multiple fully-operational broadband connectivity missions. And it is just the first of many. We’ll plan to launch many UtilitySats in the years to come. UtilitySat can provide connectivity on standard Ku, Ka, and Q/V bands, and has the flexibility to dial in exact frequencies using Astranis’s proprietary ultra-wideband software-defined radio. It can also relocate dozens of times around the GEO belt over its lifetime. It does this using our unique on-board dual-propulsion architecture, which includes both a chemical monopropellant system and an electric ion thruster. A new mission every year, or every month When we first began development of UtilitySat almost 2 years ago, we had many different missions in mind. UtilitySat can serve as bridge capacity for a customer that is waiting for a dedicated satellite, as an on-orbit spare, or as extra, surge capacity that can be brought in to supplement the broadband service we’re providing to one of our customers. There are acute needs as well — a natural disaster can wipe out terrestrial connectivity over a huge geographic area. One of the top priorities for first responders and during disaster relief is reliable comms on the ground. With multiple UtilitySats on orbit, Astranis can bring in extra capacity on incredibly short notice. Capacity that is compatible with existing, low-cost GEO ground terminals. In initial conversations with customers for UtilitySat, we’ve seen huge demand — these customers often want to lease the entire capacity of the satellite once they learn what UtilitySat can offer. Customers need all the capacity they can get, and new capacity that can be deployed on short notice is a huge deal and a huge departure from traditional GEO satellites. We see a future where customers will be able to call up extra capacity on demand to augment their existing capacity needs, and we’re making that future a reality. US Government applications The first UtilitySat mission will be a commercial one, but we are seeing enormous demand from both from commercial companies and from our government customers. The US Government has unique needs — Combatant Commanders need to be able to task dedicated satellites to specific AORs at a moment’s notice — and surge communications would give them a new tool in their toolbox, helping them win even in a contested environment. And more broadly speaking our military leaders have said the one priority in national security space is to add resiliency to our fleets, using larger numbers of smaller, flexible, and maneuverable satellites so we’re not dependent on just a handful of huge satellites in GEO. UtilitySat shows that Astranis can do just that. Not traditional GEO satellites UtilitySat is only possible because of Astranis’s unique technology — including our proprietary software–defined radio. The flexibility of having on-board digital signal processing allows us to build a standardized satellite design, and move a lot of what used to be done in hardware, into software. UtilitySat uses the standard Astranis MicroGEO platform, adding more frequency bands and some new software capabilities to make maximum use of the available spectrum, no matter where the satellite is on orbit. Traditional geostationary satellites are designed to sit in one orbital slot for up to 20 years, with a set of frequency bands that is hardwired in at the factory. Their single mission must be predetermined many years before they are launched. Astranis does not build traditional GEO satellites. From day one we knew there had to be a better way, and we’re doing it.

The Walker Kessler criticism is a perfect example of people confusing contract talk with basketball evaluation. I’ve seen a lot of clueless takes from guys who are supposed to be basketball experts they call themselves “writers & analysts”.. accounts like Damien Peters Nathan Grubel Sam Quinn These are the people who are driving NBA discourse and writing the narratives, which then the casual fans use source of truth. Can you question the money/assets? Sure. That’s fair. But when people start naming 10–15 centers they’d rather have and acting like Kessler is just some overpaid big body, that’s where I have to ask, are we watching the same player? Because on film, Kessler is a legitimate defensive anchor. He has strong post defense, absorbs contact well, keeps his chest square, and contests with verticality instead of constantly reaching. He plays with his hands high, makes himself huge at the rim, and has great timing as a shot blocker. What stands out most is his defensive IQ. He reads pick-and-roll actions well, moves his feet better than people give him credit for, and can stay attached long enough against smaller forwards/guards to recover back into the play. He tracks the ball, doesn’t quit on possessions, and gives you real chase-down/rim protection value. And in the clip, some of the same players people are listing over him are the ones he’s meeting at the rim. KAT Wemby Zubac Jokic Embiid Jarrett Allen Sabonis Naz Reid Offensively, he is not just standing in the dunker spot doing nothing. He runs the floor, fills the correct lanes, creates easy transition buckets, understands high P&R spacing, has good touch around the basket, great footwork in the post, has a strong drop step, creates contact in the post creating space for easy points, crashes the offensive glass, and has shown enough shooting touch to at least make defenses think. He’s not perfect. He still has areas to grow. But pretending he can’t play, or that he’s just another replaceable center, is lazy analysis. The Lakers didn’t just pay for what he is today. They paid for a 24-year-old defensive anchor with size, mobility, rim protection, rebounding, effort, and upside next to Luka. He is the exact type of player Lakers need. Luka is going to help elevate his game even more. Kessler will be an All Star within the next season or two!

🚩A 2024 RNZ piece reporting that the Govt quietly ushered in the Digital Trust Framework bill (Digital ID) that was passed in 2023. However the Department of Internal Affairs, and the minister in charge of the project (as well Spy agencies) - Judith Collins refused to answer questions about it. So in comes Colin Wallis (this name will come up again in the future, believe me) he founded ‘Kantara Initiative’ a NGO that helped develop age assurance and digital ID’s for Estonia, the worlds most digitised society and which Luxon aspires for NZ to mimic. The NGO Wallis founded is registered in Tallinn Estonia (Code 804123372). See the quoted tweet from Redbaiter below for ‘Luxon on Estonia’. in 2015, the Kantara Initiative’s Identity Assurance Working Group (IAF) worked with Estonia’s e-Residency program. Estonia’s national identity card system, Wallis and the group aimed to explore how this program could be used to ‘globalise’ their digital trust framework. In a recent webinar Colin stated that ‘Diversity, Equity and Inclusion must be the foundation of digital ID” he is seriously woke as all these progressive Tech types are, an obvious Marxist. Wallis is a dual UK NZ citizen (aren’t they all) and during the lockdown was asked by the Ardern Govt to assist them with a digital strategy. He then founded Digital Identity NZ an advisory board who worked with corporates & the Govt to help push digital ID . Colin who has been described in IT circles as “The God Father of Digital ID” was in 2018 named in the top 100 most influential Digital Identity professionals by peers this month stepped down from the organisation (lobbying done) and will be “joining a board” - gee wonder where he’ll pop up! Anyway listen to the piece from RNZ - Wallis says “this is not big brother digital ID, this is for your safety.. this will have the potential to be huge” “the biggest issue is getting people onboard” Wallis noted in a 2024 webinar - oh cue B416 & Luxon’s new found passion for children’s safety. Another expert Vic Uni Academic Markus Luczak-Roesch ( IT & Climate change specialist, argh) says he’s “looking forward to it” and there’s “no evidence it’s going to be used for government surveillance” - if you believe that I’ve got a brand new vaccine that’s 99% effective and a Auckland harbour cycle bridge to sell you. Oh check out Colin’s front page on Digital Identity NZ (screenshot below) ‘ Digital Identity NZ supports a sustainable, inclusive and trustworthy digital future for all New Zealanders’ “Aotearoa New Zealand is a country where people can “express their identity”using validated and trusted digital means IN ORDER TO FULLY PARTICIPATE in a digital ECONOMY AND SOCIETY” ———— Got the idea?? You should be very concerned.

SILVER'S EPIC BREAKOUT: THE 45-YEAR BULL IS JUST STARTING Silver has shattered a 45-year consolidation, surging from $50 to $120 before pulling back to $73. Analyst Christopher Aaron sees this as the launchpad for massive gains ahead, drawing parallels to other commodities' historic runs. THE BIG PICTURE BREAKOUT ✅ Silver's 45-year base from 1980 is the longest in commodity history. ➡️ After breaking $50 three months ago, it doubled quickly—but that's just the beginning. ➡️ "The longer the base, the higher the move," Aaron explains, likening it to building a strong foundation for explosive growth. COMPARING TO OTHER COMMODITIES ✅ Gold, copper, oil, platinum, and palladium broke their 1980 peaks decades ago and averaged a triple in four years. ➡️ Silver's consolidation was twice as long, so expect even bigger upside. ❓ If others tripled after 20-28 years, why would silver fizzle after 45 years and only a double? PRICE OUTLOOK: MID-TRIPLE DIGITS ➡️ Aaron targets $250-$350 for silver in the next few years. ➡️ That's based on historical cycles—gold's 7x from its 1980 peak implies similar for silver. 📊 "This market's going to need to consolidate above $50, then round up dramatically." BUYING THE DIP STRATEGY ✅ For physical silver stackers: Average in now at $70s or if it dips to $60s/upper $50s. 🚫 Avoid buying during parabolic spikes when sentiment screams "it can't go lower." ➡️ "You want to be making your final purchases below $100 before silver goes well over." SILVER STOCKS: DEVELOPERS & EXPLORERS SHINE ✅ Focus on undervalued developers with defined deposits—still trading at 1/100th of above-ground silver value. ➡️ Examples like Equity Metals' 85M oz Silver Queen show huge appreciation potential to 5% of spot price. MANIPULATION REALITY CHECK ✅ Spoofing and slams happen—banks like Deutsche got fined, but it's slap-on-wrist stuff. 🤔 All markets are distorted by central banks controlling money's value since 1913. ⚖️ "Markets win in the long run. Play in the ocean with turbulence or hide in manipulated cash." DOW-TO-GOLD RATIO SIGNALS ✅ The ratio's "fourth turning" broke in favor of gold, implying 90% Dow decline vs. gold—or gold to $9,00 📉 After 10 years of sideways, gold outperformed Dow by 150% in the last year alone. 🌟 This puts wind at precious metals' backs for years ahead. PGMS AND THE COMING MANIA ✅ Platinum hit new highs; palladium could buy low at $1,200-1,300 for long-term gains. ➡️ But gold/silver lead—palladium won't match their performance. ➡️ The cycle ends in mania, not subtly: "If you think recent spikes were crazy, wait until the end." THE BOTTOM LINE Silver's historic breakout signals a multi-year bull run to triple digits, offering smart investors prime buying dips now before the inevitable mania unleashes unprecedented highs.

Yep. It does exist but you certainly have to look for it. An example video at the bottom. The thing with DOA's KBD is that it not only varies by usage, but it varies by characters as well so it's not inherently universal. Some characters are very very good with it, while some are within the average to not so well with it. It's typically more niche than the standard movement in DOA because DOA's movement system and buffering system is very loose where you have multiple options on how you'd want to move. In DOA, some characters have backflips so that they don't have to KBD. Some characters lack the option to a backflip so they have to KBD, but the usage for it is very different compared to other games. For starters, backdashing in general for DOA has a CH penalty attached to it similar to VF if you get hit. It's basically the consequence for abusing it due to how free the movement is in DOA, it's very very loose & free in where it's actually almost very easy to do in DOA to the point you can go across the room in seconds. At times, you'd only be KBDing at specific moments which is typically: - Mid-range punishment - Wake up kick whiff punishment (especially near the wall after a wall splat) - Moves that land on block with specific pushback & are very safe. - Trying to force camera and positioning to specific parts of the arena like the water for CH lows for guaranteed launchers - Life lead in baiting people to get closer because they are fishing for your CH backdash, so some characters have good keepout attacks that are good if it lands in CH when they are running in etc. Outside of those you would typically try not to abuse it in every scenario because CH on DOA is a huge deal due to how the stun system works. Some moves won't stun on NH, but they will certainly stun on CH. It has more positive than negatives, but it's very character specific that you'll not only need character matchup knowledge to know what's incoming for mid-range situations, but a lot of situational awareness on the arena so that you don't get backed into a wall or properly timing a whiff punish. Akira from VF who's a guest character in DOA5LR in the video for example has an excellent version of it and probably the best looking one because it's more obvious than some characters in the roster and looks the cleanest, on top that his is very useful since he also has great whiff punishment options. Personally i'm on the opinion that you should give the game a try, and try out KBD even just for fun in training mode without having to go for netplay, and then decide from there if DOA gets rollback in the future.

Introducing… 🐾The Forgotten Field Project🐾 What began as a simple errand to the dollar store last week, became a desperate situation Priya Gandolf’s Legacy Cat Rescue could not walk away from. Movement in the field next door caught Priya’s eye. Six abandoned 4 wk old kittens without their mother. A baby mother herself, barely six months old, with eyes clearly indicating illness, trying to care for 4 tiny two-week-old kittens. Her head sticking out of a makeshift shelter, eyes festering and a pleading look for help. She showed no fear, perhaps too unwell to run, or too weak. Cats running everywhere. Some terribly thin. Some appeared sick. Many with goopy, infected eyes. And a couple appear possibly pregnant. There are obvious signs that someone, at some point, had tried to help… Old makeshift shelters. Empty food dishes long dried up by the sun. But now they’re left alone, sick, hungry and a couple appear possibly pregnant. Priya hurried to get food and water, and they ate and drank with wild desperate hunger and thirst. This is not just a handful of cats. This is an unmanaged colony of approximately 30 fur babies living beside a dollar store, in an empty lot thick with brambles. Unsafe from road traffic, a busy parking lot, predators who roam the area. Trapped in the cruel cycle of kittens having kittens. It’s not a “lovely spot out in the woods”. We have managed many colonies over the years, and coming upon this tragedy never, ever! gets easy. And it never comes at a time when it’s financially or spatially feasible to help them. Because in rescue, perfect timing hardly ever exists. And wasting time and your breath harping about the neglect and cold hearted actions of humans…is well, just that. You just do…because turning your back would only be more of what has already been done to them! And they deserve Help. Food. Vet care. Relief. Love. Home. A Safe Soft place to land. So starting now and over this summer, with your help, we are taking this colony on as a full Rescue and TNR project. The Forgotten Field Project will focus on: • Regularly feeding every cat • Rescuing the adoptable ones/finding homes • Vet care/Treating all the sick and injured ones first! • TNR’ing the feral cats. Hopefully relocating them perhaps into a barn cat program, as releasing them back to this location is not the ideal place for them to be. And/or hopefully, finding homes that are willing to house and work with the feral ones. Some are just more “feral” than others and can be rehabilitated. Honestly, when the fear is handled, so is the “feral” in so many cases. They need a chance to discover what love is! • And most importantly… fixing all of them to STOP this heartbreaking vicious cycle of suffering and reproduction. This will not happen overnight. It’s a huge undertaking.🦾 It will take food, vetting, medication, spay/neuter appointments, recovery space, patience, and an enormous amount of community support. But we cannot turn our backs now that we’ve seen them, we must do. ❣️The six abandoned 4 wk old kittens are already safe with us and, thanks to your help, have their first vet visits on Wednesday, 5/20. Safe and loved, their lives are changed forever. Next up… 🚨 Immediate priority is to get the Momma with the goopy eyes and her 4 little kittens out. Though it appears it might be just infected eyes, it’s imperative that we get her out now, to get vet care. She’s nursing 4 babies, and she needs proper care, nutrition and a proper place to nurse and raise her babies. A mosquito laden, picker weed field, filled with fleas and ticks, in the soon to be sweltering Georgia heat is not that place! Hopefully, $200-$300 might prove to be sufficient for her vet bill, but there will be food to consider. And as the kittens grow, they will need their vetting as well. We expect that this could be at least an ~ $8000 project. Possibly more, depending on illness discovered. But we’ll start with one foot in front of the other. And continue. One cat at a time. One full belly at a time. One life changed at a time. If you can help us help them, we would be endlessly grateful. And THEY will be grateful to know that someone has finally come along who cares about them. Sentient beings know what love is...even if they exist in fear. Love lives here… even in forgotten fields.🫂 There is more in my reply that is informative.

💥💥💥💥💥 Must watch if you have 30 mins! Prof. Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi's emotional address to the AfD faction at the German Parliament receives a rousing standing ovation and thunderous applause (Nov 12, 2023!) Highlights------------------------------------------ "...The vaccination turned out to be the greatest blessing for the money and world's elites, for the pharmaceutical industry and politics. They could pursue their own interests, under the common slogan "Everything for public health", "everything for the well-being of the general public". To achieve this goal, they created the WHO. This non-democratically elected people, basically a private association that is in the process of gaining power over the healthcare system in the 190 Member States" "Kevin McKernan (Kevin McKernan) discovered that this crucial step of removal of plasmid DNA had not been carried out conscientiously. Huge amounts of plasmid DNA have been found in packaged form. This ensured their successful delivery to the cells. Kevin's discovery has now been confirmed in several other laboratories, Also in Germany. Large amounts of DNA contamination were found in all 27 batches examined so far. Four weeks ago, the Canadian medical authority even confirmed the discovery of plasmid DNA. However, the authority does not see this as a sufficient reason for to withdraw the approval. By the way, question for the interested public, has the responsible German authority, the Paul Ehrlich Institute of the Federal Ministry of Health carried out reliable scientific measurements? Question, answer, no. Not to this day." "Who hasn't heard about the mysterious sudden cardiac deaths occurring around the world? They are just the tip of an iceberg. Heart disease caused by vaccinations is on the agenda of young and old alike. Fortunately, to save the honor of German science, well-known pathologists stood up and carried out the world's first research work, who discovered the connection between vaccination and severe organ damage. Professor Arne Burkhardt, who recently tragically died in an accident, and his dear friend Professor Walter Lang, who spoke to you today. Dr. Michael Mörz in Dresden and the world-famous Professor Peter Schiermacher, director of the Institute of Pathology at Heidelberg University. Thanks to their work, it is now scientifically proven. And so it says in this work from Peter Schiermacher's group, Literally, it has been proven beyond a doubt that vaccination can lead to fatal myocarditis." "Anyone who praises RNA vaccines as safe and effective, Anyone who claims that vaccination rarely causes serious side effects is either incredibly ignorant or infinitely evil. And they ar committing a crime. Just like everyone who actively or passively pursues and supports this vaccination. Because it is now scientifically proven that vaccination can only have negative effects and this to a life-threatening extent." -------------------------------------------- Please note that this will likely be "community noted" because (as of 26 Nov 2023), the existing "official" guidelines appear to still be significantly influenced by major pharmaceutical entities, and regulatory bodies continue to be potentially compromised.

I WENT TO THE GAME ALONE. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚽️ Here’s my experience: Because of my job, I’m lucky enough to be used to travelling by myself, so buying a single ticket and flying down to Miami didn’t feel that daunting. But I was still cautious. The 02:45 alarm call on Saturday wasn’t much fun and then I managed to miss the exit off the highway to the airport as I was singing ‘It’s Coming Home’ at the top of my voice in the car and had to rush to get through security to the gate! ☺️ I was surprised to have found a direct flight to Miami from Tulsa that got me in at 09:00, so it was an Uber to the Hyatt Place hotel at the airport who kindly let me have breakfast and get in a room at 11:00 to shower and get ready. Flawless. That’s the word I’d use for the organisation of transportation and logistics in Miami. Just flawless. A $15 Uber ride took me to the Martin Luther King train station (one of 4 pick-up points) where lines and lines of yellow school buses stood, each taking 50 or so ticketed fans the 11 miles to the game. Of course England and Norway shirts dominated, but it really felt like a carnival of football with tops from various countries and clubs to be seen here and there. And, man, was it hot!! As we jumped off the bus, in front of us hydration stations had been set up. Complete with electrolyte powder to mix with the iced water from huge tanks. And did I sweat a lot in the next 8 hours! So having downed a few litres of water it was a half mile walk to the stadium. Police everywhere, roads closed, huge energy, fantastic atmosphere. (Lots of locals stood at the end of the driveway with huge signs trying to sell their drive as a parking space for the night. What entrepreneurs!) I didn’t touch alcohol due to the heat - but the bars and food outlets were packed outside the stadium as a carnival atmosphere prevailed. Before heading to my seat I was able to meet a few Albion fans (Sam Harte, Ian Harte, Nick Blanco, Derek Chapman et al) which was brilliant. There we all were, 3500 miles from the AMEX! 💙🤍 I’d only bought a seat on Thursday and had a huge stoke of luck when I found it was bang in the middle of the England end. And what a fantastic group. Everyone introducing themselves to each other and sharing stories of the footballing summer so far. Passionate. Knowledgable. And just salt of the earth characters. As for the game? Well, the chanting was incessant, orchestrated by the England drummer and trumpeter how stood just a few rows behind me. We were together. We were united. And, call me old-fashioned, but it felt very healthy; it felt special. And I felt so lucky to be part of it. The game happened, you’ve seen it, no need for me to linger on that. But at the end there was a lad who was just in tears of joy. Must’ve been in his early 20s and it was clear how much England meant to him. He just couldn’t stop! It was pretty moving to witness. I manage to grab a couple of England jerseys on the way out (only XXXL left, but that’s what Mrs Bard asked for anyway as seems the fashion) and then it was a walk back to the buses in the oppressive heat and under the blinding floodlights of the walkways as random England chants erupted from various pockets of the 1000s of us walking from the stadium. The atmosphere was electric. It was a 90 min wait for a bus but the stewards did a great job and I was back in my hotel to watch the last few minutes of Argentina beating the Swiss in extra time. You know, I’m not a fan of FIFA, and despite football playing a huge part in my life, I was a little cynical about the World Cup in the build up. But as I left the stadium last night, the world felt a better place. It’s been an amazing tournament, but not because of the FIFA suits, but because of the fans. It occurred to me that, just for a while, because of football, division and politics has been replaced with humanity and wholesomeness. And that’s just what the world needs right now. ⚽️❤️

Dumbing Down II "By Faith, this is the last rent I am paying as a single lady. If you support me to pay this rent, by the grace of God, this time next year, I will be in my husband's house." is back begging for support to pay another rent. Not because God didn't bring eligible suitors her way, but because her PASTOR has replaced the Holy Spirit in her life. Pastors ruin a lot of destinies when they insist on playing God instead of their primary role as destiny guides. Many members have submitted their free will to their pastors, giving their pastors the power that God himself didn't take from us from the dawn of creation. When you take the ability of the individual to act as a free agent in the name of religion, you reduce him or her to a puppet and yourself to a puppeteer. You want to pull the strings of the lives of thousands of born-again Christians at the same time while rendering them useless to follow their paths in Christ and grow into mature sons. I was at a Church in Anthony village about three years ago to minister, and I met this young man who was schooled at a very prestigious university in the USA. He was the in-house IT consultant of the church, and the pastor placed him on a monthly stipend while he was working for God. It was the Pastor who introduced the young man to me while boasting that God had given him the most capable hands to help him in ministry. I asked him if he had any Python, Java, cloud engineering, data management, digital marketing, coding, or similar tasks available for the young man in the church. He said no. I said, "You are giving this young man the job that any young school leaver who is proficient in computer appreciation can do, and you don't see it as limiting his capabilities and rendering his skills obsolete?" You would rather boast that you are ruining a destiny to build up your own profile rather than set this young man on the path of excellence? Did God call him into ministry as a preacher? Is he understudying you in preparation for his own ministry? The pastor said, "No, I plan that as the church expands, he will head our digital infrastructure and position us for the future." I said, "He can do that as a consultant or even as a member, he shouldn't be doing that while you are paying him 100,000 Naira a month. He should be out there, flying with his peers and earning in dollars! The only exception is if the Lord has called him to be a preacher and he is understudying you as your personal assistant, as led by the Lord as part of his season of preparation. Anything other than that is injurious to his destiny!" The pastor had never seen it that way When I was done ministering in the church, the young man hugged me and thanked me profusely. He said his mother sent him to the pastor when he returned from the USA and the pastor immediately told him that God had need of him in the ministry or he would die without fulfilling his purpose. Why do pastors do this? I have another case from the Northern part of Nigeria. A young lady reached out to me seeking clarity regarding her future She said her Apostle told her she has been raised by God to sing in his church choir, but she is a medical doctor by training and desires to further her studies abroad Every time she raised the issue with the Apostle, he shut her down and told her she was struggling with the will of God "Why can't you just submit to God and serve in the choir and watch as God will take your voice all over the world as this ministry grows?" The young lady said she knows she has a good voice and sings very well as one who is full of the Holy Spirit, but she does not want to be "Sinach", she wants to fulfil her dream of practising as a Pediatrician. She was wary of incurring the wrath and curse of the Apostle, however, and did not know how to extricate herself from the situation. The apostle did not see anything wrong with his actions because he was a user of people who believed that in order to fulfill his own desire to become a big ministry, others could not thrive and grow in their visions and ministries as ordained by God. This is witchcraft. It is not of God. Jesus didn't lead his disciples this way. Insecurity is the undoing of many African so-called Pastors and Spiritual leaders, and they hide behind the illusion of divinity to put others in bondage. I experienced this firsthand as a young graduate, so I understand how a pastor trying to build his ministry could see the potential in a young man or woman and try very hard to turn such a person into servants and house helps in the name of discipling them or training them for kingdom relevance You graduate from the University and join the labour force, you apply for many jobs, and at a point, you tell yourself it is important to seek supernatural guidance in your quest to fulfil destiny Somebody somewhere tells you about a church or a ministry, you join, and you are convinced the church is good. You also tell your friends, and they join. But you are all fresh graduates who are heading into the future one way or the other, but this pastor wants you to be his flock. To him, his church of ten members had suddenly become a church of 30 members because of you guys, and he wants to keep the numbers growing, so he begins to give you prophesies that were not of God but with the aim of keeping you in the fold for as long as possible. He told young graduates who ought to go for NYSC that God is telling him they should give it up for service to God in the vineyard. The mother of two of the ladies in the fellowship, whose daughters told that the pastor told them not to go for NYSC, quickly removed them from the fellowship before the seed of corruption being planted by this pastor would bear fruit The others also left as soon as they could gather their wit People who you ought to guide on their path in sincerity ran as far as they could from you based on how you chose to manipulate rather than nurture them. A married woman whose husband worked abroad was a trained secretary, and while her husband was abroad, catering to the needs of the family, he begged her to stop working so that she could focus on raising the children. She was raising five children all by herself, and combining this with a job seemed a bit too much at the time. One of the vital institutions for raising godly children was the church This woman attended church regularly with her children and even volunteered to spend any free time she had typing the pastor's sermons, Sunday School pamphlets, handouts, books, journals, and other church reports and documents She was not officially employed to do the work; she just saw that she could take some of the secretarial duties on during her downtime, and she did so with all sincerity. The church enjoyed her free services for five years until the pastor forgot completely that she was doing the church a favour One day, the woman came to church to tell the pastor that her husband would be returning home to visit the family, and she would not be available for a few days because she had to pick her husband up from the airport and ensure that he settled in properly. Unfortunately, that weekend was the weekend of the church's anniversary, and the pastor had a lot of secretarial work to do. He told the woman God said she should pick one. Heaven or marriage. He said if she goes to pick her husband from the airport, she has chosen the world and forsaken the Lord. The woman wept all the way home, It was not the thank you, thou faithful servant report she had worked day and night for many years to get that she received. She went to pick her husband from the airport and distanced herself from any church founded by any individual after that experience. She said the ambition of church founders requires that they use people to build, even though they lacked the resources to pay or compensate such people, so they resort to blackmail, coercion, lies, fake prophesies, promises, and manipulations to get things done while keeping their followers on a leash. Followers are also enablers as they refuse to read the Bible for themselves and walk in the light of the word of God. No one should be able to take you captive in the name of God, Jesus, all the angels, or any form of miracle if you know the word of God. The word of God is profitable to make one wise, and therefore, anyone who knows the word of God cannot fall victim to any false doctrine, teaching, spiritual manipulations, or lies. All the false teachings of someone being a covering for someone else came from these manipulative narratives, and believers should be wise to them. I have seen a pastor declare that his church is the only church in Africa that is licensed by God to take people to heaven, and some members believed him. The day he said that, all his members ought to laugh, pick up their Bibles, and leave without looking back. Self-aggrandisement has become the order of the day in some churches, the pastor sells himself as the be-all and end-all of the member's spiritual enlightenment, and the members sheepishly surrender their eyes of their understanding to him or her. He or she must determine where they work, whom they marry, who they associate with, whose music they must listen to, and whose sermons they must hear. If they want to travel, he must see if the road is clear on their behalf, if they want to build a house, he must approve, if he does not dedicate their baby, the baby is illegitimate. This is not the faith Christ or the Apostles died for. Jesus died that you might be free of religion. Christianity is not a religion, it is the opposite. It is individualistic and determined by the faith and belief system of the one rather than the many. Salvation, therefore, is a personal affair, and the baptism of the Holy Spirit is also a personal affair Religion is the opium of the masses, and Christianity is the salvation of the individual and his or her walk with God. When we fellowship together, we do so not so we can get brainwashed by one "super Christian" but so that we can minister to the Lord and minister to one another in the presence of God. Every believer must hold this truth to be self-evident. PS: Someone sent me the video of a pastor condemning a song recently released by a fellow believer, which is making a global impact The Pastor represents an old school of Christians who are unfit to be custodians of the gospel due to their rigidity and limited understanding of the finished work of Christ. Disciples of the gospel of Works and Performance lack creativity and discernment but are good stewards of rigidity and religious doctrines. In other words, a Pharisee must act like one, and Jesus must act like Jesus. We are all just being true to our nature. "I can never go back o No...No It's already too late o No...No Where Am I going to... No...No" If you read to this point, when I was in Spain, I asked a very important question about a meal. If you know the answer, I'm inside the comment section. -GSW-

Ian Carroll believes Q is a Bullshit Psyop involving Time Traveling lol As much as I do like Ian and his opinions, based on his words right here, I’m pretty sure he has never read the drops. For someone who does research “conspiracies” as well as he does, it’s disappointing to hear this kind of mainstream media take. But I won’t demonize the dude.. What people have to understand, including Ian, is that just like January 6 was infiltrated by Feds to make the movement look like “insurrectionists”, the same has been done with anons who are spreading intentionally dumb shit. For example, when I first started becoming interested in the subject of Q, some “influencers” had me believe that Q was secretly JFK Jr, the Q group were Time-travelers, or that celebrities who died were taken into witness protection. lol It wasn’t until I sat down and read every single Q drop like a book that I realized Q never said any of this stuff. That realization began my journey to actually start researching EVERYTHING for myself. And now I dedicate myself to this movement everyday. When it comes to “decodes”, there are some undeniable proofs that Trump and the Military was/is very much involved with it all… heck, president Trump literally played a song at his rallies titled WWG1WGA and posts incognito Q content quite a lot. But I will admit, most times “decodes” are just the interpretation of folks who either don’t understand what the hell they’re talking about, haven’t properly researched it, or feds trying to make the collective movement look dumb. What I did find out when I read every single drop was that Q was talking about some very heavy subjects. World wide subjects that I never even knew existed. —— The Russia collision Hoax, —— FISA —— spying on Trump campaign —— wide open borders —— Hillary emails —— pallets of cash going to foreign countries —— Obama corruption —— Snowden and Assange —— Voting, how mail in voting was a huge democrat scam —— the Plandemic —— the SA mass arrests —— Soros and the top families who basically control the world —— history of banking, the Titanic And so much more.. And Since Ian is very outspoken on Israel, he would learn quite a bit of things that point to what he speaks about everyday. —— the need to follow families and their historical connections to world events. —— a handful of of corporations own 90+% of all we hear see and read. Q used the Socratic method to ask a lot of questions, and like Ian, encouraged everyone to think and research things for themselves. If Ian doesn’t properly research this subject for himself, he cannot be trusted to talk about it in a genuine manner. I Still got big respect for Ian Carroll

A Letter from a Chinese Supporter and Believer in the Ecosystem Dear Unipcs (aka 'Bonk Guy') 🎒, Tom, and the team, First off, thank you for even taking the time to read this. I know your inbox must be overflowing while you’re in the middle of fighting off all the paid FUD campaigns aimed at and the ecosystem. I’m writing not to complain, but to shine a light on one of the most passionate and genuine projects born in this community: QUBY. QUBY: A True CTO a Month In And Still Going Strong QUBY was CTO’d just a month ago, and since then it’s been carried forward by a group of passionate whales (myself included) inside the ecosystem. We top‑blasted QUBY not because it was easy, but because we believed in its potential and in the mission of to welcome and empower the Chinese community a community often overlooked in Web3 despite the huge role it plays. What makes QUBY different? • Daily, high‑quality content from hand‑drawn art to animations, made by the community out of love • Cultural roots QUBY is a beloved Chinese meme with generational recognition and over 5 billion downloads on WeChat • Community‑driven we even voluntarily sent 2% of the token supply to BonkGuy’s wallet to show our commitment • Zero KOL bundles no influencer handouts, no farming games, just pure conviction from top holders who believe in this narrative and this ecosystem This isn’t a KOL farm. It’s a true community takeover. And I can say honestly I’ve woken up every single day for the past month dedicated to helping this movement grow. You’ve Said It Yourself: PVE is the Future PVP will always exist, but if wants to build something that lasts beyond the flip meta, it needs projects that stick. And QUBY is sticky. Not because of hype or airdrops. Not because of some celebrity tweet. But because people genuinely care. That’s rare in this space. Support Shouldn’t Just Be Equal - It Should Flow Where It’s Earned We’re not here to chase a Chinese narrative or force it. We’re taking a piece of Chinese culture and sharing it through our team’s vision with art, creativity, and fun animations. Everyone has a little Quby inside them, and that’s why the character is so relatable. The meme is organic, not manufactured. At the same time, we fully believe that WeChat Doge deserves to be the flagship Chinese pick in the ecosystem. It has genuine Chinese dev backing, community interest, and support, with a native ticker that resonates. We’re not competing with them we actually support them. All we ask is that support doesn’t just pool at the top. Let it trickle down through the whole ecosystem especially to projects like QUBY that are growing organically, powered by passion and belief. The Bonk Ecosystem Needs Heroes: Let QUBY Be One of Them QUBY has already proven itself: • It thrives even through volatility • It inspires relentless content and even copycats (who can’t recreate the magic) • It bridges cultures Western users are literally translating posts just to join the Chinese meme scene has a rare chance to be more than a launchpad. It can be the cultural engine of Solana. But that means supporting not just the loudest projects, but the ones truly building community and culture. QUBY has earned that shot. And to be clear this isn’t about shilling one coin above the rest. It’s about recognizing the organic movements that prove culture matters. When BonkGuy signals belief in a project, the whole market pays attention. Liquidity follows. Communities feel validated. QUBY is ready. We’re here. And we’re not going anywhere. With respect and conviction in Hyung

Urban redevelopment at its best! The Kazanchis area in #Ethiopia’s capital, Addis Abeba. My family lived in Kazanchis a long time ago before we moved to the U.S. It has now been beautifully redeveloped beyond recognition. Congratulations PM Abiy Ahmed Ali 🇪🇹. Also like to congratulate Mayor Adanech Abiebie, other city officials/ professionals and the residents of Addis. 👏 👏 👏 INSIGHT & ANALYSIS The re-birth of Addis has huge longterm economic & societal benefits for Ethiopia. Those who knew the old streets and neighborhoods of Addis now have to rely on Google Map and GPS since everything has changed dramatically for the better: New roads and highways, modern residential and commercial buildings, utility cables buried underground (no more ugly eyesores), standardized building and street signages, well-lit clean green streets, absolutely beautiful functional parks (my favorite is Friendship), museums (the magnificently restored National Palace and the newly built Adwa Museum are world-class must visits), cafes and restaurants everywhere, EV charging stations, etc. The redeveloped palm-tree lined 3.5 mile drive from Bole Airport to Meskel Square, especially at night, has an incredible “Wow” factor unparalleled by any major African capital city. The newly installed giant LCD screens everywhere, including the flyover bypasses, make it feel like Times Square in New York, the Ginza district in Tokyo or Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai. The old fashioned ugly static billboards have been banned and removed. The Addis we wished when traveling or living aboard is visible now (albeit it’s a work in progress). And, as Ethiopia positions itself as a major African regional economic hub (it’s consistently ranked amongst the 5 top FDI destinations in Africa and already hosts the largest number of diplomatic missions in Africa and 3rd largest in the world), it’s absolutely essential for Addis to be transformed, as is happening now. Of course improving the quality of life of its 130+ million citizens (amongst the 10 most populous countries in the world) is the priority goal. Addis accounts for about 30% of the country’s GDP and is forecast by “The Economist” to achieve an average annual GDP growth of 10.6% in the next 10 years, the fastest growth of any African city. I grew up in Washington DC and recall the redevelopment of the city starting in the mid-1980s. Washington, at the time, was rundown and neglected especially the downtown area. Today, it’s one of the most beautiful livable cities in the world. Of course it took more than 30+ years to transform DC even with the deployment of enormous resources by the U.S and DC government and investments by American private companies. I see many similarities between DC and the redevelopment of Addis, but it’s being achieved in a much shorter period with much less resources. This shows that Ethiopians can think BIG and achieve BIG! Let’s keep it up👍 👍 👍
