Could there be a real possibility that everything you think is reality is actually a simulation? Professor Brian Greene has spent decades trying to understand the true nature of our universe and he says the argument that we could be living inside one actually holds up. Brian is a theoretical physicist at Columbia University and one of the world’s best-known thinkers on string theory, space, time and the fundamental nature of reality. By 12 years old, Brian had already exhausted the maths curriculum at his high school. He has now spent decades trying to answer a question that sounds simple but might be the biggest question we can ask: Why are we here? Brian has the ability to take ideas that should feel completely inaccessible and make you feel like you can actually understand them. We discussed things like: - Why Brian has high confidence that humans do not have free will - How travelling hundreds of years into the future is allowed by the laws of physics - Why he believes AI will eventually become conscious - Whether an infinite universe means there could be another version of you somewhere out there - What actually happens when the universe eventually reaches its end He explained that we’re living in an incredibly small, rare window in the history of the universe. A tiny moment where conscious beings are actually here to look around, fall in love, build things and understand the world they’re standing in. Because eventually, the stars will burn out. Matter (atoms, planets) will begin to disappear. Even black holes are predicted to evaporate into nothing. On paper, it sounds bleak. But listening to him, I felt the exact opposite. That’s what I loved about speaking to Brian. These huge ideas somehow end up feeling very personal. Out now on all platforms. ❤️👊🏾

🔊 The greatest moment in human history occurred when our Savior, Jesus, triumphantly declared, "IT IS FINISHED!" In that instant, our salvation, redemption, and eternal lives are now fully complete and secured in Christ FOREVER! He took our place, shed His blood for us, died, rose from the grave, and is coming back for His Church! 🔥We were all sinners, facing death, staring down an eternity in the pits of hell. But then, right at this very moment when our names are called to die, He steps into our lives, into the very depths of our despair, and takes our place. He dies instead of us, offering us a lifeline to eternal salvation. He sacrificed His life to save us, and now we stare at eternity in heaven with Him. ⚠️ We need to know and fully understand what He went through—otherwise, we will never grasp the depth, height, and length of His love for us! This is the work of His love, He went to the cross to pay for our sins to grant us eternal life. 🩸 The night before He was crucified, He prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane. His sweat fell to the ground like drops of blood, a manifestation of His intense anguish. As God, Jesus was fully aware of everything that was going to happen to Him 🩸 He experienced the pain of knowing that one of His very own disciples was going to betray Him. 🩸 He knew that many who had once called Him "The Messiah" would now be screaming for His crucifixion. 🩸 He knew that He would be beaten nearly to the point of death before they pounded the crown of thorns into His head. 🩸 He knew the prophetic words of Isaiah spoken 700 years ago, that He would be beaten so severely that He would be "disfigured beyond human likeness." 👉🏼These things contributed to His great anguish and sorrow, causing Him to sweat drops of blood. However, there was more... 🩸 He knew that He was going to be crucified. The crucifixion was considered the most painful and torturous method of execution ever devised. In fact, the pain was so unbearable that a word was created to describe it - "excruciating" - which literally means "from the cross". 🩸As our sinless Savior bore the weight of the world's sins on His shoulders and was being crucified, His Father must have looked away, for His "eyes are too pure to look on evil." This caused Jesus to cry out, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?"—which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" The pain of being abandoned by His Father far surpassed the intense physical pain the Lord endured on our behalf. ︵‿︵‿︵‿︵︵‿︵‿︵‿︵︵‿︵‿︵‿ 🔊 The cross was meant for us! The pain was meant for us to bear, the blood was meant for us to shed, and the sin was meant for us to die for! BUT Jesus endured it all to rescue us, to save us, to redeem us so that one day we could also be glorified with the Father and have eternal life. He did it out of LOVE, for YOU and me! 📖 "So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, "IT IS FINISHED! "And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit." John 19:30 🔊NOW, when God looks at the cross He sees YOU, And when He looks at YOU— He sees Christ!💪🏼 🔊He was buried and resurrected on the third day, according to the Scriptures —and He is coming back for His Church to save us from the 7-year tribulation, which will be the most horrific time the world will ever see! 🔊It's time to come to Jesus and receive His unconditional love! The moment you believe in Him and that He died for your sins - you're saved, justified, sealed until the day of redemption, and rapture ready! The Holy Spirit will come to live inside of you - He will help you, guide you, change you, and be with you FOREVER! COME TO JESUS, ACCEPT HIS LOVE, AND BE SAVED FROM WHAT? ETERNAL DAMNATION IN HELL!

Black Simps & Democrats Liberalism is a female trait...so why would a black man be loyal to the liberals? The answer is simple...SIMPIN! Or he's gay. Those are the only two types of black men who vote democratic. Black men who vote for democrats are simply following behind misled black women. They are men without a backbone. The truth is...for the sake of keeping black women happy, black men align with the democratic party. Some of them even feign democrat just to get close to a woman. They have no aura, charisma, and don't take their APEX. So they have to resort to pandering to be around women. They'd rather be a woman's pet than her leader. And they always turn out to be weirdos. While some do it for acceptance, others do it out of coercion and threat. Black women have so much power in America that when they unite, they can ruin your life with only a social media account. Black men have been punked by their own women. Held hostage to the democratic party out of fear. Fear of being labeled a coon or a sellout. Fear of being blackballed. They don't even let black men on the black podcast circuit if they don't align with the democrats. It's that bad. Black podcasts are in the business of making money, and advertisers don't pay black republicans like they do black democrats. Doing so could get your PODCAST blackballed. It's as if black identity is directly tethered and bound to the democratic party. Now, THAT, is some good brainwashing. Do you even have leverage if one party knows that they can count on your vote? Why should they do anything for you when they know you won't defect to the enemy? This is common sense in negotiations, but women don't think; they feel. And all of black politics is about THE FEELS. They didn't like something someone said or how they said it...BLAH BLAH BLAH. But rarely do they examine without bias. The ignorance of the black vote is held in place by black political grifters who get direct checks from the democratic apparatus to lie and deceive our people...to make them believe they only have one option. But what happened after Biden got elected? Black pundits and influencers complained that the job opportunities and checks stopped. Why? Because the job is done and they don't need your black ass anymore. You were a DEI hire! Remember when Ice Cube got canceled because he wanted to meet with Trump after the Democrats didn't respond to his requests, so he quit politics. Could a guy with "Killer" in his rap name get booked if he talked to Trump? Or would the ATL boule collectively cancel him? Now, the thing the black man fears most is the black woman. But it's more like FOMO. He practically begs for her approval. But what if she views you as a tool and not someone to be respected? When you stand 10 toes down, you get respect. And at this point, it's obvious that our women do not respect us. They don't respect us because we are cowards. We're afraid to challenge them. And until we do, our people will never be free.

Jim Jarmusch on how he got the idea to make "Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai" (1999): "It really came about from wanting to work with Forest Whitaker, who I met when I was going to the Super-8 lab when I was working on 'Year of the Horse' (1997), or maybe on the video. I ran into him a couple of times and we would just start talking and he said to me the first time, "Hey, if you ever think of anything for me, let me know, I'd love to work with you." I couldn't get him out of my head, certain qualities that he has and it was more from talking to him as a person than his work. I was very, very moved by his portrayal of Charlie Parker in 'Bird' (1988). I thought it was a beautiful performance, although I'm a big be-bop fan and I did not like the movie in terms of its slant on depicting the life of Bird - how can you make a film about Bird in which Miles Davis is never even mentioned? There were a lot of things really odd to me about it. Miles' estate probably refused to let him use his name. With good reason. They usually use this very soft, gentle, poignant side of Forest and he gets cast as the loveable soft guy. And I'm really attracted to that quality, but there is a whole other side to him, just physically, his presence, there's more there than that and I wanted to get both of those things in a character. So I started thinking how can I do that? He should be a warrior and I thought he should be a hitman, that sort of cliché and then the samurai thing came to me because in eastern-culture warriors, there is a whole spiritual side to their training. If you look at the Shaolin monks in China, they're martial arts experts, but they are priests; they are enlightened religious teachers, but the physical side is also completely intertwined. So that gave me the idea to give him some depth. Then the book 'Hugga Kurai', because it's a text from the 1750s written by an old samurai as a guide to samurai life and philosophy. It contains so many things, minor, mundane details about the food you eat, or how your house is built, how often you clean your armour, to incredibly deep Zen philosophy, and it's all in this book and it jumps from one to the next. Then I just started collecting disparate ideas; I was interested in the decline of organised crime families in New York because I used to live right across from the Gambino family social club in Little Italy, and in the late 70s and early 80s when they were unravelling, and I would always see them on the street - John Gotti and Sammy 'The Bull' Gravano and Neil Belacroche and all those wise guys. So I collected some ideas about them, and the idea of pigeons came from the fact that on the roof behind me, there was an old Italian guy who had a pigeon coop for years. He died just before we started filming actually, and his birds were moved away, but I used to watch him fly his birds a lot and there was something very beautiful in that movement. Sometimes I'd just look out the window on a Saturday morning and see them moving, and the light would shift and they would go from black to white to black to white to black to white, and that was a detail. I would just collect and collect, and then I sat down and tried to weave all these disparate things into something." ("Jim Jarmusch - part three", The Guardian, 2000) P.S: On this day, 27 years ago, "Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai" (1999) premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, France.

Paul Schrader talks about the racism in "Taxi Driver" (1976, Scorsese): "Interviewer: In 'Taxi Driver' (1976), was the Harvey Keitel character originally black or white? Schrader: Well, you’ve gone right to the heart of the matter. The film is riddled with racism, and Travis, the main character, is a racist not by conviction but by fear. He is everything by fear. He has very few convictions about anything except immorality, but when you feel the pressure coming down, when you feel the world shrinking, one naturally looks for enemies, and what better enemies are there than people who are not like you? Travis’ enemies are people who are at ease. He hates people who are comfortable. He himself is extremely uncomfortable. He’s not at ease anywhere, so he hates. Travis admires the politician but also hates him because the politician is at ease, especially in the world of women. This is where Travis’ feelings about blacks emerge. He sees the blacks out there almost as animals. He sees them out there having fun, out there jiving with women. He sees them dancing and relaxed. He’s so uptight himself and so constipated and attenuated that for him the blacks begin to be some kind of a focus for the thing he can’t have, that relaxation he lacks. So the racism starts to run through the film. It starts to rear its head very overtly. You see him looking at these people and you know it’s not a matter of conviction, because he doesn’t have any real beliefs or strong theories about blacks. It’s just that he has this thing about people who are at ease. The logical conclusion of the film would have been that all the people he ki!!ed were black. It was in my mind when I wrote the script that he ki!!ed only black people, but that was just too much. Marty and I were just too terrified of it. I mean, the film explores the borders of bad taste as it is, and there is just so far you can go in the commercial cinema before people get up and throw stones at you. I think that if we had followed his racism to the natural conclusion, which is him ki!!ing three black guys, the audience would have just said, “Holy f**k, that’s just too much.” So we made them white, which is a thin cover. Somebody asked Pauline Kael if the film was racist, and she said, “No, it’s not racist, because he doesn’t ki!! black guys at the end.” She missed the point completely. His actions are racist, and the only reason he doesn’t ki!! black guys at the end is that we didn’t want anybody st@bbed in the theaters. That’s my opinion. Marty may dress it up and put it in a different language, but the racism of the film really is quite clear. I think it’s possible to distinguish between the racism of the main character and the racism of the filmmakers. I mean, Marty and I and De Niro are racists to the extent that all people are racists. I think it’s part of the job of a writer or anybody worth his salt to explore his closets. We’re all in the dirty-laundry business. An artist gets to a certain point where he says, “I’m not afraid to explore my Jewishness,” “I’m not afraid to explore my homicidal tendencies,” “I’m not afraid to explore my s**ual deviations,” “I’m not afraid to explore my racism." I mean, the whole f***!ng film takes place in his head. New York consists of a lot more than Forty-second Street and Broadway. All you see of New York is his very peculiar vision of it, and he has a very sordid view of things. You only see blacks through his eyes, and the only exception is the black he works with, who he borrows money from. You are given no alternative view of reality. One of the rare things about Taxi Driver is that this character, Travis Bickle, has been in a lot of movies, but you’ve always been given another perspective on him. In 'In Cold Blood' (1967) you see him through John Forsythe’s eyes. In 'Psycho' (1960) you see him through Martin Balsam’s eyes. In 'White Heat' (1949) you see him through Edmond O’Brien’s eyes. But this is as though you see White Heat solely through Cagney’s eyes, which makes for something very different, because Cagney is very mentally disturbed in that film. You have the same situation here. You’re getting Travis’ perceptions of the world, which are very distorted and unrealistic." (Paul Schrader's interview with AFI, 1976)

One of the rare things about Taxi Driver is that this character, Travis Bickle, has been in a lot of movies, but you’ve always been given another perspective on him. In 'In Cold Blood' (1967) you see him through John Forsythe’s eyes. In 'Psycho' (1960) you see him through Martin Balsam’s eyes. In 'White Heat' (1949) you see him through Edmond O’Brien’s eyes. But this is as though you see White Heat solely through Cagney’s eyes, which makes for something very different, because Cagney is very mentally disturbed in that film. You have the same situation here. You’re getting Travis’ perceptions of the world, which are very distorted and unrealistic." (Paul Schrader's interview with AFI, 1976)

Andrei Tarkovsky on Ingmar Bergman's Shame (1968): "Let us look at Bergman's Shame. The film doesn't contain a single 'actor's piece' for the performer to 'give away' the director's purpose, to play the conception of the persona, his attitude to it, to assess it in relation to the overall idea; and the latter is entirely hidden within the dynamic of the characters' lives, at one with it. The people in the film are crushed by circumstances; they act only in accordance with their situation, to which they themselves are subordinate; they make no attempt to proffer us any idea, any perspective on what is happening, or to draw any conclusion. All of that is left to the film as a whole, to the director's vision. And how superbly it is accomplished! You cannot say in simple terms who amongst them is good or bad. I could never say that von Sydow is a bad man. They are all partly good and partly bad, each in his own way. No judgements are passed, because there is no hint of tendentiousness in any of the actors, and the circumstances of the film are used by the director to explore the human possibilities which they test, and not for a moment in order to illustrate a thesis. Max von Sydow's character is developed with masterly power. He is a very good man; a musician; kind and sensitive. It turns out that he is a coward. But by no means every bold man is a good human being, and cowards are not always scoundrels. Of course, he is weak and irresolute. His wife is far stronger than he, so much so that she can overcome her fear. The hero lacks that strength. He is tormented by his own weakness, vulnerability, lack of resilience; he tries to hide, to cower in a corner, not to see and not to hear; and he does this like a child, naively and with complete sincerity. But when circumstances nevertheless force him to defend himself, he instantly turns into a scoundrel. He loses all that was best in him; but the drama and absurdity of his situation is that as he is now he becomes necessary to his wife, who, in her turn, looks to him for protection and succour instead of despising him as she always had. When he beats her about the face and says 'Get out!' she goes crawling after him. There is something here of the age-old idea of passive good and active evil; but its expression is immensely complex. At the beginning of the film the hero cannot even kill a chicken, but as soon as he has found a way of defending himself he becomes a cruel cynic. He has something of Hamlet: my view is that the Prince of Denmark perishes not as a result of the duel, when he dies physically, but immediately after the 'rat' scene, when he understands how irreversible are those laws of life which have forced him, a man of humanity and intellect, to act like the inferior people who inhabit Elsinore. Von Sydow is now a sinister character, afraid of nothing: he kills; will not raise a finger to save his fellows; pursues only his own interests. The point is that you have to be a person of great integrity to feel fear in the face of the foul necessity to kill and humiliate. And by shedding that fear and apparently acquiring courage, a person in fact loses his spiritual strength and intellectual honesty and parts from his innocence. War is the obvious catalyst for the cruel, anti-human elements in people. Bergman uses the war in this film exactly as he uses the heroine's illness in Through a Glass Darkly: to explore his view of man." — "Sculpting in Time" by Andrei Tarkovsky (translated by Kitty Hunter-Blair, 1987)

Chinese caster Wang Duoduo gave a poetic closing statement to #Worlds2024: I honestly couldn’t figure out the most precise way to describe this series or what Faker means to us. It wasn’t until I watched Yan Hexiang’s stand up yesterday that I suddenly realized: Faker isn’t just an opponent to us; he represents a situation we are in. In his hands, he holds the undefeated record in Worlds BO5s against the LPL and that one badge that we’ve never managed to collect on our path forward. He is a person that we can never avoid, a topic that always comes up. That’s why we were especially eager to meet him in the finals and face this situation. We once called him the highest mountain and the longest river, believing that mountains and seas have limits. But today, at the age of 28, through his perfect performance, Faker demonstrated what it means when we say, “Where the sea ends, the sky becomes the shore; when the mountain reaches the top, I am the peak.” He has no end. He have been subbed out before, have been injured, felt heartache, and perhaps there were times when he looked around the practice room and found himself alone, experiencing the mixed taste of joy and loneliness by himself. But I believe this is who Faker is. His name is Faker, yet he has proven through 11 years of unwavering dedication that he is the realest person of all. The journey for LPL is still long. BLG are our heroes, and they worked hard this year. All the LPL teams put in their best efforts as well. Thank you all for watching until this moment. You may have many things to say right now or might be expressing your emotions on the screen, but it’s getting late. In London, it is now 7:10 PM, and the sun has already set. But I believe that even when the sun in London sets and fades away, taking with it all lingering rays, at the same time, it will rise in distant China, bringing us all its warmth. I think this is everything that Worlds 2024 has given us.

Homme's long answer to why Bluffing started over Delight in HLE's match vs. KT today. Why did you decide to replace Delight? Coach Homme: I honestly don’t think there’s any problem with Delight’s individual skill. But right now, I think jungle and bot are very important in the meta. Rather than individual skill, when you look at skirmishes, even if someone makes a bad decision, if everyone commits to it together, sometimes it can turn into a good decision that wins you the fight. And I think the more people you have who are willing to step forward and take responsibility, the less of that burden everyone has to carry. I do think Delight is better in every aspect overall. But when it comes to stepping forward, when I think of Delight, honestly, the thing that comes to mind is his engages. He’s still playing well now, but I wanted to see more of that feeling he used to have. I wanted to step back and see more of those kinds of plays from him, so that’s part of why we decided to make this change. Recently, we’ve had a lot of problems in that area. Rather than individual skill, I think it’s an issue of coordination. We’ve had a lot of things go wrong when we group up. So I wanted to look at Jin-hyeok separately, look at Delight separately, and also look at Gumayusi. I think the jungle-bot coordination is extremely important right now, so we made this decision after taking all of those things into consideration. I don’t know whether this decision will turn out to be good or bad, but we still have time before Worlds, so I’d like people to trust us and give us some time to try this out. There’s really just one thing I think Bluffing does better. When we’re contesting vision or skirmishing, he’s willing to step forward, even if it means he dies, in order to take some of the burden off the other players. Maybe because he’s still young, I think he’s able to make those kinds of plays confidently. But I also think Delight was extremely good at doing that, and he’s still playing well enough now. So I’m not saying Delight is playing badly. It’s just that when Kanavi and the bot side group up, there seem to be quite a few small differences in how they think about those situations. I thought it would be good for them to talk through those differences again. And I also think Bluffing is certainly a player capable of competing, so that’s why we made this decision. But there’s no question in my mind that Delight is the much better player overall, when you look at every aspect. I think Delight will be able to address this particular issue soon enough, so I think Delight will probably be playing again soon. That much I can say with confidence.

i wanna talk about the scene immediately after tuna melts for a sec because there’s so much symbolism in this scene and it’s honestly really interesting to me because at first glance it could quite easily be one that’s overlooked. sure, it obviously shows shane is tightly wound after running away from ilya in tuna-melt-gate but there’s deeper layers to it as well. the most obvious (imo) is shane ordering a ginger ale and being unable to get one, when in the scene immediately prior we’ve just witnessed him be given one without even asking at ilya’s house. it really plays into the whole ginger ale as a metaphor for shane’s “true self” and that even when he tries to let parts of the real him slip through he meets obstacles to prevent that happening, whereas with ilya he’s allowed to be himself and totally at ease. there’s also the moment where the waiter asks if anyone will be joining them and removes the extra place setting. it highlights the space in shane’s life thats left empty because he isn’t able to publicly fill it. he can’t have anyone sat at that place setting because he can’t be seen in public with the person he loves, so it stays empty. its also a sort of parallel for the final episode, when that extra space at the hollander’s dining table is filled by ilya. this is just a tiny thing and probs me thinking too much into it but i love the choice to have shane studying the menu the whole time. he’s holding it in a way that it sort of shields him from his parents and puts a barrier between them, so it’s kind of like a physical “wall” that he has up to protect himself. then when his parents want to go to the tennis, shane’s immediate instinct is to lie so they can get in, which yuna (correctly) points out isn’t who he is. it really represents to me how comfortable shane’s become in living the “lie” of his life and hiding his true self - and yuna’s words are a harsh reminder to him that he’s really not as okay with that as he’s been telling himself he is. it sort of snaps him out of it for a moment and reminds him that there is a real discomfort for him in lying to the people he cares about. finally the little nod at the end to shane’s parents suspecting that maybe he might be gay - his dad says “swedish princess” really incredulously as though he knows that was never going to tempt shane. this was probably more meant to be referencing how fame and events that are all about appearances aren’t shane’s scene at all but it definitely could be read as them suspecting a little bit considering they say in episode 6 that they had done for a while.

Or we fight…We fight until Valko is home. Until infold hears us. But the key point in fighting, is showing love and support to others. if we want infold to hear us, we need to be just as loud as last week. Yes, July 9th is a blackout. Take the day to rest and recover, go on the game if you really feel the need to. But please, don’t spend any money. The fight is long from over. We can’t let the haters and other shit keep Valko hidden from us. It’s ok to take breaks, it’s ok to lose hope, but know we are all here to fight for you while you gain back the strength and motivation to bring our wolf home.

We love you Valko, and we are not going to stop fighting until Love and Deepspace/【公式】恋と深空-Love and Deepspace- listens to us Global Players. Because as of right now, we feel disrespected.

It's over. In this video, Abroad in Japan flat out admits that he had been living in Japan for 10 years and does not speak Japanese. So after defaming a friend of mine (Oriental Pearl) and talking about how he is so in tune with the Japanese because he is a local, the whole time, his Japanese was so bad that he could not even understand the local news. This smug asshat had the audacity to call Oriental Pearl a lying grifter who is misrepresenting Japan when he doesn't even know enough Japanese to fact check her. Oh and then he cut the audio out of a moment where she was laughing uncomfortably because she was being sexually harassed and then pasted it with different footage to make it look like she was laughing at the homeless. By the way, this moment where he admits his Japanese is beginner level is at the end of the video where less than half the viewers will see it. You know, so that way he can go around masquerading as someone who can handle complex conversations with Ken Watanabe or Hyde followed by not showing the parts where he is having someone translate for him because he can't understand what they are saying. This guy is a massive fraud and I know he is intentionally hiding it because everyone and their grandmother thought he was fluent until I said something on my YouTube channel. Now he will use this term "conversationally fluent" which I think a lot of people believe means he can handle basically any conversation that you would see in your normal life. I think he purposefully says that to misrepresent his actual skill level to people who don't know anything about language learning. He even openly admitted in this video that he regularly misrepresents how long he has been in Japan so that people won't judge him negatively for not learning their language. S when Chris says "conversationally fluent" what he actually means is he has the language ability of a 7 year. Sure he'll understand you when you talk but if you say ANYTHING complex, he can't understand you. Also when he says, "I'm conversationally fluent" he is saying that he is illiterate. You know all of those videos of Kai Cenat humbling himself to become a better reader? That level of reading is vastly better than Chris's reading level in Japanese. I mean this absolute liar while go out there and pretend he is prepping for the JLPT N1 like he is a master of Japanese yet 2 years after that video comes out, here he is saying his Japanese is ass and he's basically a beginner and hasn't studied in 8 years. Then this year he says, "Actually I completely failed the JLPT N2 when I tried to take it 11 years ago but it was because someone's cellphone went off in the middle of the test. That magically made me forget all of my Japanese." Well, it's not like he's the only one in that friend group who can't speak Japanese. His terrorist supporting friend Connor can't speak Japanese either. Neither can Garnt. After 6 years. None of these people in this group outside of Joey, who grew up speaking the language, actually respects Japan enough to do the most basic thing which is learn the language. Yet they'll be like, "Yeah, I wouldn't go back to England. That place sucks."

Let me also confirm publicly that this person has now been fully bought and paid for by the government. Whatever his motivations may or may not have been when he initially started doing the "anonymous whistleblower" thing, he is now 100% owned and controlled by whoever was behind his arrest in August. There are many things I could say, but I'll just restrict myself to these few key points: 1. After I led the media campaign that forced the police to charge him in court instead of keeping him in the FCID dungeon, this fellow - from his cell at Kuje Prison - tried to entrap me in a scheme that would have forever destroyed my credibility and put me in legal trouble that could have followed me anywhere in the world. I trust absolutely no one, so I recorded the entire 54 minute call in the event that a day like this might come. I have uploaded the relevant 6-minute segment of it here. Another well known person here was also on this call and you can hear her voice in the recording. If she wishes to, she will identify herself. 2. The number that he used to make that call is in frame 2 below. He also used that number to reach out to multiple well wishers while he was in Kuje Prison. A contact of mine ran this number through the national SIM registration database and it turns out that it is registered to one Hassan Jibrin, whom I am made to understand is a Director at the Federal Ministry of Defense. Though I have since blocked it, I assume he is still using this number to reach out to people and solicit for money or entrap them like he tried to entrap me. Whether "Hassan Jibrin" is actually a real identity or not, what I do know is that when someone facing a major national security lawsuit is remanded in prison by the government and immediately given access to a phone, and the next thing he does is to call other people he knows are being targeted by the government and start trying to get them to commit to do something illegal and unethical, I don't need to be Albert Einstein to work out that someone is putting him up to it, and that whatever deal he was offered for his freedom most likely involved giving his captors my head in exchange for his own. 3. Since we are talking about "traitors," maybe I will release the rest of the recording where this galactic asshole lambasted Deji Adeyanju, his lawyer who was representing him pro bono, calling him a "baby lawyer" and incompetent, boasting that someone told him that "Peter Obi will hire SANs" for him. In the end, it was the same Deji who got him out on bail, after which he went and acted that drama for the cameras in the courtroom, hugging Deji as if he hadn't destroyed him behind his back. Let's also talk about "traitors" who get caught by the government after doing what they say is public interest work, and then they give up everyone who gave them information or helped them. Let's talk about the biggest traitor of 2024 who got caught up in his own web of nonsense, ended up in secret detention, and then got his brother to try to convince David Hundeyin to impersonate him, a missing person - making me an accessory to a crime in the event that he actually ended up dead, which he very nearly did. I held my tongue since September because I felt that it was not my place to destroy this PIDOM fraud, but now that your itchy fingers have carried you to where you shouldn't go, I'm only too happy to indulge you.

Paul Verhoeven on whether the events that take place in "Total Recall" (1990) are real or just a dream: "It is both. To be honest, that’s what I want. I made the movie in a way that it would be true on both levels, and I spent a lot of time to get that. If you want a scientific explanation, you know, of course, in quantum mechanics there is a very interesting principle, the principle of uncertainty, Heisenberg’s principle. If you have a big object and if you try to measure the place of the object and the velocity of the object at the same time, the more precisely you measure velocity the less precise place gets. So that’s the principle. That means, of course, that there are different realities possible at the same moment. What I wanted to do in 'Total Recall' is to do a movie where both levels are true. I mean for me, of course, the film anyhow has to do with two realities, one being the reality of going as a secret agent to Mars and discovering that there is a problem, and solving the problem, which is starting the nuclear reactor and helping the guerrillas and destroying Cohaagen. The second level of the movie, of course, is that from the moment that he goes into the Rekall chair ‘til the end it’s a dream, and I tried to make that second level work throughout the whole movie. So there’s the dream level which starts when he gets into the chair and the thing is in his neck, and that would go throughout the whole movie, so in the next scene where they say, Oh, there’s a problem, there’s a big glitch here, that would be already the dream, of course. That’s where the dream starts. And the next scene where they are fighting and stuff would be part of his dream, convincing him that it is real, because there is a glitch but that would be part of the program. It would be built into the program to make him accept the fact that it’s real, but it’s a dream. If you look at the movie, if you haven’t seen it, or for the second time, you’ll see that the whole program that’s set up at the beginning when he goes to the Rekall office and he talks to this guy who sells him the program on Mars, you’ll see that he gets everything that he wants: he gets the trip to Mars, he gets the girl, the exotic girl, he ki!!s the bad guys, and he saves the entire planet. That’s what he does. And that’s basically the dream. Even halfway through the movie, you may remember, this other guy comes in, Dr. Edgemar, and tells him that he’s in a dream, that he’s still in the Rekall chair, and then Arnold says, “If I’m there, I can ki!! you.” And he puts a gun to his head and the guy says, “Sure, no problem for me, big problem for you, because you will be psychotic from now on because the walls of reality will fall apart. One moment you will be the savior of the rebel cause, the next moment you’ll be Cohaagen’s bosom buddy, but in the end—you will even have these strange fantasies about alien civilizations—but at the end you will be lobotomized.” And then if you see the movie, you realize that all these things happen. I mean he is lobotomized at the end. That’s why at the last shot, when they are so happy and kissing each other, it slowly fades to white, which for me meant, “OK, there he goes. That’s the end-that’s the dream—they lobotomized him.” And all the other things happened, he finds the alien civilization, he rescues the planet, he finds the good girl, he k!!ls the bad guys, but it’s a dream. Now, of course you can see it as a reality, too. So at the end of the movie, getting to white means either it’s a happy ending or he loses his brains . . . which is probably also a happy ending, I don’t know. That was basically what l wanted—that at the end there would be two possibilities, and they would be both true—for me they are both true—it’s not either one or the other. It’s not that either it’s a dream or it is a reality. It is a dream and it is a reality. And I think they’re both there." (Paul Verhoeven's interview with Chris Shea & Wade Jennings, 1992) P.S: On this day, 36 years ago, "Total Recall" (1990) premiered in Los Angeles, California, USA.
