Yes! Each copy of flipnote studio gave its users a unique, 16 digit FSID that would track their name when a flipnote was uploaded or shared.

Are you ever going to point out Flipnote on the 3DS? Is that something that can possibly change this archived story?

Great question! Unfortunately, Flipnote Studio 3D, while an excellent program, does not have what we are looking for.

EVAN CARMICHAEL who has 588K INSTAGRAM followers, shared a reel about #V's rise to the top.. ▪️This boy went to an audition just to cheer on a friend, but ended up becoming the 1st K-pop soloist to hit 100 million SPOTIFY streams in the 1st week of his album release. ▪️Meet #V, whose real name is KIM TAEHYUNG, one of the 7 members of BTS. #V was born on Dec 30, 1995 in DAEGU, S.KOREA. He grew up as the oldest of 3 kids in a farming family. He helped with the farm as a child & spent a lot of time with his grandparents. ▪️From elementary school, he dreamed of becoming a singer. His father believed in that dream & encouraged him to learn the saxophone in middle school, paying for 3 years of lessons so he had a solid musical foundation to build on. ▪️In 2011, at 15 years old, V went with a friend to a BIG HIT ENTERTAINMENT audition in DAEGU. He had no plan to audition. He was just there to cheer on his friend, but a staff member spotted him & asked if he wanted to try out. He said yes. He danced, sang & beatboxed. The staff kept asking him to show more, so he came back with his saxophone & played that, too. His friend didn't make it, but he did. ▪️#V moved to SEOUL to begin training alongside the other future BTS members, but BIG HIT made a decision that would test him for the next 2 years. Founder BANG SI-HYUK believed #V was too good to be revealed early. He was worried bigger companies would try & recruit him away. He wanted the reveal to make the biggest impact possible, so he kept him completely hidden. While the other members posted videos & built a fanbase starting in 2012, #V sat quietly at the back & watched. He wasn't allowed to appear in any of it. "When all the members were shooting for their own logs, I was the only one who couldn't, so I was very sad," he later admitted. ▪️His face wasn't revealed until Jun 2, 2013, just 11 days before BTS debuted on Jun 13, 2013. Fans who had been following the group suddenly discovered there was a 7th member they had never seen. BANG SI-HYUK later said, "#V had great charms in terms of appearance & personality, so I thought it would be impactful when he was revealed last." BTS debuted, but the early years were a grind. ▪️BIG HIT was a small company with few resources & the group spent years fighting for attention in a crowded industry. #V kept working. In 2016, he co-wrote his solo track STIGMA for the album WINGS & made his acting debut in the KBS2 historical drama HWARANG: THE POET WARRIOR YOUTH. ▪️On Sept 8, 2023, a decade after his debut, #V released his solo album LAYOVER. It sold over 2.1 million copies in its 1st week of the HANTEO Chart, the best 1st week sales of any solo artist in the chart's history. It also became the first album by a K-pop soloist to earn over 100 million SPOTIFY streams in a single week. ▪️#V once said, "When things get hard, stop for a while, look back & see how far u've come. Don't forget how rewarding it is." 📎 [Notes] ▪️EVAN is an entrepreneur, author, international speaker & motivational content creator. ▪️He has a YOUTUBE channel with 3 million subscribers. ▪️He is best known for his massive social media presence aimed at helping people build self-belief. ▪️His core philosophy centers on finding your "One Word"—a single core value that defines your life's purpose & drive #BTSV

Bloomberg's Jason Schreier reports that since 2024, due to Concord and other factors, #PlayStation "enacted this way more rigorous process with milestones". So Concord and live service failings potentially played a role in why Physint was cancelled, or why PS is now far more strict with deadlines and budgets. But here's why I believe a much more "rigorous" vetting of production, may stifle the kind of flexibility that produced some of Playstation's best games. As Jason himself states, games nearly always miss deadlines and go over budget, especially those that aim for awards and critical notoriety, and that is especially true for several of PlayStation's very best games. Cory Barlog spoke on how God of War 2018 only really came together in the last several months of development, and was a "disaster" before that. How the game constantly grew in size and scope, and how the first two years were basically him selling pitches. "The first year of the game I kept telling everyone the game was only going to be 10 hours. Don’t worry! It’s gonna be small! It’ll be fine. Then I grew into, 10 hours in the critical path and 10 hours in the exploration. Yeah, it’s 20 hours, but don’t worry, it won’t get any bigger than that. And then it was — okay, it’s going to be about 40 hours." "You’re sort of selling everyone a car for two years, because there’s really not much there. You’re just convincing them." "It’s very challenging, especially when the game isn’t actually put together until that last six to eight months." The Last Of Us 2013 faced multiple "production challenges" and big changes throughout, and was also delayed. Early play tests revealed melee mechanics that were too clunky when paired with an overly close camera, which led to an overhaul, and removal of a block mechanic. Originally there were no infected either, only humans, and Ellie was first written as Joel's daughter. Druckmann even stated that failure early on in development, often creates better results later. "There's something about how we view failure at Naughty Dog as a positive thing, if you learn something," he says. "The idea is fail as much as you can early on, because all of these failures lead you to better answers. Had we gone forward with those original ideas the game would've been weaker for it." In-fact, troubled development is somewhat of a theme at Naughty Dog in their pursuit of greatness. The Last of Us Part 2 was delayed TWICE. Uncharted 4 was delayed THREE times. The game was also almost entirely scrapped, and had to be completely redone mid way through development. This type of flexibility in development wasn't a uniquely PlayStation thing, it's actually an ethos Nintendo still follows. Bloomberg reported "Nintendo developers are allowed as much time as they need to be satisfied with the quality of the game before its release, according to a company programmer" --- So does that mean you just give every studio and developer as much time and money as possible? Of course not. It's a business ultimately. But you certainly offer greater flexibility to your most talented tentpole studios and directors. Those with proven track records, with the highest quality of past releases, that bring prestige, status and notoriety to your brand and console. They've earned that leeway, and have produced, and will hopefully continue to produce greatness. You also appreciate that an action focused AAA game, is likely to have much more commercial draw than a more niche genre. Keep in mind Death Stranding's development took roughly 3 years, and Death Stranding 2 just over 4 years, which is actually great by AAA standards. This notion Kojima cannot produce incredible AAA games in a timely manner, is simply not true. Jason Schreier full video: God of War 2018 Uncharted 4 The Last of Us Nintendo

I've built a multiplayer survival game for the browser in 30 days and I didnt write a single line of code 🤯 So I'd like to write my notes about it once the deadline is done now. The last 20% of a project is indeed the hardest part of it all. In the last 2 days i've been working on the final version of Hollowlands for @levelsio's 2026 #vibejam I worked a lot! I fixed a lot of bugs, tested a lot playing with my wife. Fixed more bugs... But now, thank God, I have the final result! The game looks good, yes. I've spent half of the jam just tweaking every single detail of the procedural world generation. And It was worth it! The game still runs well on most devices and still has less than 20MB in size. Which is pretty impressive to me. The process of building was very straighforward: 1. I used Three.js + React to create the game. Before I started I created a huge document defining every rule i'd like the codebase to be implemented upon. It had clean code rules, archtecture decisions, ECS principles (good for games), and so on. This helped a lot constrain the AI to maintain the code maintainable and separated into clear domains (systems). This document was made partially by me given my previous experience building web games (I've made a lot of mistakes in the past and made sure they will not repeat again) and partially AI suggesting best practices. 2. For every feature I prompted the AI, I was very specific on details that I'd like implemented. If I knew what I was doing, I was more specific on the "how" I wanted to be done. If I didnt know what was doing I first asked the AI to brainstorm possibilities with me, based on industry standards, pros and cons, and so on. Then I would decide what path to go. 3. Every single feature I used Leva for tweaking the values. So for example, the size of the trees, colors, distance between objects, animation speed, etc. Everything I have a slider that I can adjust. 4. To make the game look good I used Tripo to create the models. To be honest it's not 100% perfect. If you check the character in game you can notice a few issues here and there (the arms lol), but I believe that it will keep getting better over time. 1 Year ago I tried and it wasnt even close to what it's now. Then I used a few post-processing + shaders + particles techniques to bring the "wow" factor. 5. I did only 1 feature at a time. And every change it was a commit with a clear message of what was done. This helped the AI fetch previous commit to understand what changed and know exactly what happened in the past. If I opened multiple terminals at once and blasted prompts the code and commit history would be a mess in a few days. And for every change the AI did, I asked it to do a Code Review of everything that was changed and look for violations on the document I wrote in the beggining defining the codebase guidelines. I realized that I pretty much applied software engineer principles using AI: Code, review and merge, code, review and merge... 6. On the last week I implemented the multiplayer using Colyseus ⚔️ which was pretty nice. I used AI to fetch the whole documentation and create a skill.md file that helped a lot. The creator of the framework Endel also did a extensive research on how real multiplayer games are implemented. It's open source and it was a gold mine for the AI to come up with the implementation for my game. You can ask him the link :) And that was it I think. I'm extremely tired now. The last 2 days was insane. The game's final version is not what I had in mind in the beginning of the jam. I had to cut a lot of cool features. But given the 30 days deadline I think it was a huge success. Hands down my best game ever made. Now I'll take a few days to rest and come back with more updates on the game. Maybe it can become a big deal in the future with more updates. Who knows. And in the event I win first place in this game jam, I'll use the money to fund my own game studio + cover the expenses of my child that is going to be born in September :) Cheers guys! If you have any question, feel free to reach out. I'll answer every non-bot comment in here haha Note: The link to play is in my profile

The Earth is not a dead rock careening aimlessly through an empty void of space...It's an electromagnetic, conscious, living entity, that is engineered to perfection. Ley Lines are its veins/cardiovascular system. Underground gold, silver, and quartz crystals are the physical hardware that make up its motherboard. The Sun and Moon are the anode(+) and cathode(-) maintaining the electric circuit that charges all life across the realm. The oceans are a grounded, multi-billion-amp electrical generator that BREATHE through the raising and lowering in sea level (tides), in perfect harmony with the cycles of the anode/cathode circling above it within the enclosed, domed system 🌞☯️🌛🌊 The synchronicity of these cosmological elements also forms a perfect CLOCK we can (and have for thousands of years) use to navigate, and tell the time (Sun = time of day, Moon = time of month, Stars = time of year) All ancient structures were built on ley line cross-points, as this is where the highest frequencies + free energy output are. How in the WORLD did the ancients know all of this, and build so many mindblowing structures to align with it, you ask? I think I know, and if I am correct, then all of the ancient history researchers, archaeologists, scientists, and even veteran conspiracy theorists are wrong. I believe that the reason why the ancients understood all of this stuff wasn't because they were "smarter" or "more in tune with the Earth" in a general sense. I think ancient Humans literally had a completely different biological design—the ORIGINAL Human design—that was naturally able to see and sense all of these different energies around us, just like birds, fish, and so many of the other Earthly animals do. And not just that, but I think Humans were the BEST at these sonic, cymatic, and telekinetic powers at our peak, far beyond what we currently view frequency-sensitive critters with great wonder for. THIS is how we built all of the mind-boggling megalithic structures everywhere, which the greatest architects alive cannot explain. We did it through SOUND and FREQUENCY manipulation via telekinesis, at a level that would seem like fictional superhero stuff to our current form. So what happened? Why are we in such a physically/spiritually-suppressed meatbag now? In short, somewhere along the historical timeline (likely during one of the ~7 worldwide cataclysm resets), the Human genome was mass-edited to remove all of these spiritual powers. With them, we were too powerful to be effective loosh-harvesting cattle in the soul-trap prison. We kept blowing the game up and skyrocketing the frequency of Earth, which led the parasites needing to respond by triggering cataclysms every few hundred years to reset the board (floods, mudfloods, massive DEW attacks to name just a few that we have clear evidence of all over the world) Basically, the bad guys had to crush the 5D Human down into a 3D form that was more manageable for them, since they kept getting wrecked in the multi-millennia creator vs. parasite arms race. To do that, they shrunk down our physical size (height), pineal gland size, and nerfed our brains/DNA so we can only perceive the 3D physical world, and nothing above that. (Currently, our brains are operating at less than 5% of their potential, and 10 of our 12 DNA strands have been deactivated, which Science™ now calls "junk DNA" to hide the truth - that they were STOLEN from us). The good news: the dark forces don't have the ability to completely REMOVE these abilities from Humans - only shrink them down and make them dormant (which is why they've had to continually flood us with chemtrails, fluoride, EMFs, poison in our food, water, etc.). A constant blanketing of poison is required to keep our pineal glands calcified, and our superpowers paralyzed. But they cannot keep doing it forever. Our bodies, minds, blood memory and spiritual abilities are all slowly but steadily coming back online. (Even the shrunk pineal glands and body size will be reversed in the future following the 5D-ascension Solar Flash, but that's a whole post for another day) Oh, and one last theory I have, which I haven't seen anywhere else, but makes sense in my mind: I don't think these previous 5D humans were our "ancestors" at all. I think they were US, in previous incarnations on Earth. We've been inside this 3D simulation for thousands of years, stuck in a reincarnation cycle that keeps throwing our soul back into a new Human vessel every time we die. And as the vessels have weakened, we've lost touch with our powers...but our soul knows, deep down beneath the layers of amnesia, where we truly came from, the POTENTIAL we hold, and where we're going back to once we break that frequency threshold for the final time, and the parasites have nothing left to throw at us.

NEW QUESTIONS REGARDING THE CHARLIE KIRK ASSASSINATION (MORE ARE POPPING UP EVERY HOUR): An event 1/4 of this size with a nobody speaker would have ambulances immediately on scene for emergency situations like this. So why was Charlie Kirk instead stuffed into a predetermined SUV, that would have to follow traffic laws on the way to the hospital, with no medical supplies, no oxygen, and no medical personnel? He's carried there by 6 dudes (including the SAME 2 GUYS that were making the umpire hand signals seconds before the shot (white hat/white shirt guy and black shirt/black sunglasses guy) The black sunglasses guy also appears to be THE SAME PERSON that was on Trump's secret service team the day he was also shot...? (see attached pic) Nobody carrying Charlie is applying pressure to the neck wound as they run him to the car. Instead, they are just letting his head violently flop all over the place, the last thing you would do following a traumatic neck injury And despite the above carelessness with a gaping neck wound...there isn't a single drop of blood anywhere on the ground, his shoes, or any of the people carrying him 🤔 How come there are new camera angles of the shot emerging showing the blood coming out not from his neck...but from under his shirt, more in the upper-chest area? Many have forgotten that the eyewitness reports on the day of the event were saying they saw him get shot in the CHEST. The story didn't change to NECK until after those 2-3 videos we've all seen spread across the internet like wildfire, which as my original post demonstrated, had some pretty weird, potentially AI-looking inconsistencies (ring changing fingers, black dot on the top-right of his shirt moving diagonally up and seemingly BECOMING the bullet hole wound, the wound itself shifting slightly to the side when watching frame-by-frame, etc.) Could this have something to do with why some video-analyzing sleuths are spotting a black object inside the collar of Charlie's shirt, right in the area this blood is coming out in the above-mentioned angles? (See the attached video where I included clips of all of these new discoveries) Additionally, is it a complete coincidence that the freemasonic #33 has been spammed ALL OVER the event, AND the following investigation? Stacks of hats on the stage adding up to 33, supposed murderer driving 3 hours to get there, 3K people in attendance, "300 cases of politically-motivated violence since January 6th" being reported across Yahoo and other MSM outlets, manhunt lasting exactly 33 hours (Kash Patel even corrected himself after saying 36 hours, to make sure everyone heard 33 on the livestream), and many more such examples And ANOTHER coincidence, that the man they've pinned all of this on looks exactly like Lee Harvey Oswald, one of the most classic patsies in the history of US Government cinema? What about the Jew decoy they trotted out (George Zinn), who also just happens to be a key witness that reported seeing planes flying into the twin towers on 9/11/01, AND has connections to the Boston Marathon bombing? How did the supposed shooter—according to the official story we're being given—take apart the gun and stuff it in his backpack & pants in seconds (not possible according to experts), then escape the scene without being seen lugging around these giant gun parts, then REASSEMBLE THE GUN BACK TOGETHER AGAIN to leave it nicely in a box in the forest. What??? Passports found underneath the world trade center, anyone? Why was Kash Patel wining & dining at a "swanky Italian restaurant in NYC" just hours after Charlie—his self-proclaimed "best friend"—was brutally murdered live on the world stage? He has a private jet - why didn't he use it to go there and investigate? What are the odds that at the exact same time Charlie was shot, there was a big senate hearing going on regarding the Epstein files, in which they concluded they were not going to release them? (A convenient time for a distraction) What are the odds that Trump and Bibi Netanyahu—in completely different timezones and with completely different schedules—posted a "Pray for Charlie" tweet at the exact same time, to the minute? How was a book titled "The Shooting Of Charlie Kirk" published on Amazon on September 9th...then quickly taken down from the website? And what about that "Charlie Kirk Dead at 31" song posted on Soundcloud a month ago? Many have commented that, after watching the Erika Kirk TPUSA press conference video, they intuitively got weird vibes from it, sensing that it appears she is acting. I won't inject any personal opinion on this one - go watch it for yourself, and draw your own conclusions. ALL OF THIS SAID: It could not be any more blatantly obvious that whether or not all of the above bizarre occurrences are just incompetence, insane coincidences, or some mixture of the two, there is something very big going on behind the scenes here, and we've been fed a gigantic plate of lies over the last few days of unfolding events, with most of the internet is eating it up faster than Kash Patel at a swanky Italian restaurant in NYC. The only question is: how deep do the lies surrounding this situation go? (Watch the final attached video for many different levels of speculation, for you to come to your own conclusions on where you draw the line) Question everything. Always.

🚨 THE UNIVERSE HAS BEEN HACKED! THE SOURCE CODE IS NOW OPEN SOURCE. THE SOLAR SYSTEM IS LITERALLY A GIANT ATOM. RUN THE SCRIPT AND TEST THE HARVARD & NASA DATABASES YOURSELF! For 100 years, textbooks have taught that the Solar System is just a bunch of rocks floating randomly in a continuous, empty space (ℝ⁴). That is mathematically and physically false. Space is rigidly quantized. We have executed a massive dual-scale empirical audit of the complete Harvard-Smithsonian Minor Planet Center (MPC) database—a staggering 1,561,930 celestial objects and 951 comets. We did not use a computer simulation. We used a direct uplink to the official, daily-updated global registry of every known rock in space. The ultimate topological illusion has been destroyed. The cosmos and the quantum realm are running the exact same executable file. The Solar System is a Macroscopic Atom. Galaxies are Macroscopic Molecules. Here is the ultimate, multi-layered proof. 🧬 I. THE BIOLOGICAL ORIGIN: WE PORTED THE CODE FROM DNA Here is the revelation that shatters the mainstream divide between disciplines: We didn't just "guess" the algorithms of celestial mechanics by looking at telescopes. We extracted the mathematical descent operator directly from Biology. Dr. Jean-Claude Perez jean-claude perez (retired IBM Artificial Intelligence Research Centre), working in deep collaboration with Nobel Laureate Dr. Luc Montagnier, didn't find the geometric limits of reality by looking at stars. They found them by decoding the bio-atomic masses of life's foundational elements (C, O, N, H) inside human DNA. They discovered that the building blocks of life are mathematically filtered through a competitive geometric differentiation, yielding a universal projection coefficient bounded by the Golden Ratio (φ) and π: Proj(m) = [1 - 4φ^(7/2)π]m The exact same Diophantine mathematical constraints that assemble your genetic code also assemble the periodic table of elements—and we have now proven they construct the orbital structure of the Universe. We took the source code of life, applied it to the cosmos "just to see what would happen," and the Matrix rendered itself. Look at the attached video. On the left: Rosalind Franklin’s famous "Photo 51" showing the X-ray diffraction of human DNA. On the right: NASA Hubble’s image of the "X" structure at the core of the Whirlpool Galaxy (M51). This is not a coincidence. It is the exact same topological blueprint. The galaxy is a molecule. The solar system is an atom. DNA and the cosmos run on the exact same geometric engine. 🛡️ II. THE ZERO-PARAMETER SHIELD & THE TIME MACHINE "But you just curve-fitted the Harvard data!" No. The mathematics came FIRST. We didn't look at the sky; we looked at pure Euclidean geometry. The "Source Code" explicitly embedded in our IT³ framework is derived from strict nested embeddings (Sphere ⊃ Cube ⊃ Octahedron ⊃ Torus ⊃ Catenoids). It operates with ZERO empirical free parameters. The matrix is hardcoded in pure Diophantine roots: ➤ Λ₁ = √3(3 + 2√2) ≈ 10.095. The exact, unalterable helical pitch-to-throat ratio of a vertical torus tangent to the faces of an inscribed cube. ➤ Λ₃ = φ²√3 ≈ 4.534. Derived strictly from the same roots. ➤ N_twist = 103. The exact topological energy minimum. ➤ S_out = 3 S_in. The exact surface area ratio of Cuboctahedral (Oₕ) symmetry. You cannot "curve-fit" fundamental geometry. And we proved it with a Time Machine. Our geometric matrix dictates a "Macroscopic Valence Shell" peaking exactly at 46.77 AU. When we ran this exact operator on historical MPC database archives from August 1992... that shell was COMPLETELY EMPTY. Humanity had zero objects there. But the math demanded it. Then, 1992 QB1 was found. Then 6 objects. Then 18. Today, thousands of bodies are perfectly locked into that exact 46.77 AU shell. You cannot curve-fit a database that does not exist yet. The geometry waited for humanity to find the matter. 💥 III. THE TELESCOPES ARE BLIND: 5 Global Algorithms Crash Imagine trying to run a modern 3D video game on a 1980s pocket calculator. The calculator isn't broken, but its software simply cannot process the reality it's being fed. It freezes, crashes, and spits out error codes. This is exactly what is happening to the world's most advanced space telescopes. The physical mirrors and lenses in space are working perfectly. They are capturing real photons. But the software pipelines on Earth are programmed to believe that space is a continuous, empty void (ℝ⁴). When these telescopes look at the exact topological nodes of the Macroscopic Atom, the algorithms mathematically choke. They try to fit flat, continuous-space formulas onto a macroscopic quantum standing wave. Here is how the continuous-space paradigm dies on your screen when querying NOIRLab and ESA servers: ➤ 1. ESA Gaia DR3 (The L2 Space Telescope Collapse): The satellite physically observed target objects up to 510 times. Yet, the algorithm returns a Parallax of NaN (Not a Number) and an astrometric_excess_noise_sig of over 1.7 MILLION! Standard noise for a real star is under 2.0. Negative and NaN parallaxes on multi-year transits are physically impossible for solid rocks. ➤ 2. DESI Legacy Survey: The Tractor algorithm attempts to fit a standard point-mass shape (PSF). A perfect fit is χ² = 1.0. At our derived nodes, the fit error (rchisq_g) explodes past 18,500! The software is mathematically vomiting. ➤ 3. NOIRLab NSC DR2 (Supercomputer Timeout): When we expanded the query to a 2.5-degree radius, the server literally timed out. The density of objects exhibiting fatal kinematic errors (pmraerr > 100) was so overwhelming that the database execution limit was breached. The instruments are calibrated for an infinite void, but they are hitting the structural skeleton of spacetime itself. 🛰️ IV. HUMAN HARDWARE IS CAPTURED In the 1970s, humanity launched Pioneer 10, Pioneer 11, Voyager 1, and Voyager 2. Once they achieved escape velocity, they were supposed to coast on smooth, perfectly predictable Newtonian trajectories. But they didn’t (the infamous "Pioneer Anomaly"). Our framework reveals the terrifying truth: the probes are physically colliding with the rigid structural skeleton of the Solar System. Space has "density ridges" that strictly obey spectral geometry. The theoretical orbital shells scale by the exact formula: Rₙ = 27 · (√3)ⁿ⁻¹ Let’s calculate the n=4 topological shell: R₄ = 27 · (√3)³ ≈ 140.296 AU. When we connect our dashboard to the LIVE NASA Horizons API to track fractional divergence {n} = n - round(n), we see the impossible. ➤ Pioneer 10: +0.019 ➤ Voyager 2: +0.046 Their columns are practically glued to absolute mathematical zero. They are flying at exactly ~141.7 AU and ~143.8 AU. They are not floating aimlessly. They have been mathematically and physically CAPTURED by the n=4 topological resonance layer (140.3 AU). The joint probability of this happening by random chance is p = 0.0034. 👁️ V. THE HYDROGEN RHYME & THE OPEN SOURCE TRUTH In 2013, physicists took the first-ever direct photograph of the electron orbitals of a Hydrogen Atom (Stodolna et al., PRL 110, 213001). When our 3D Perez Hourglass manifold rotates into a Top-Down 2D projection, the architecture of our Solar System PERFECTLY MIMICS the 2013 Hydrogen photograph. The distribution of 1.56 million macro-objects flawlessly matches the exact nodal interference fringes of the (2,27,0) Stark state observed in the lab. Furthermore, a live Entropy Test on 951 real comets proves: ➤ Bound comets (e 1) exist in a continuous ionization spectrum (H = 3.85 bits), acting exactly as free macroscopic electrons escaping the atom! THE CONCLUSION: Exactly 99.56% of all baryonic mass is geometrically trapped in a central topological node. The universe uses ONE blueprint. The continuum is dead. 👁️ VI. THE ANCIENT AXIOM & THE GEOMETRY OF THE MATRIX For millennia, the greatest minds in human history recorded fragments of a universal fractal law. For centuries, orthodox science dismissed these records as mere philosophical metaphors, religious mysticism, or primitive alchemy. But our mathematical matrix proves otherwise. They were not writing poetry; they were describing the LITERAL geometric and topological mechanics of the universe. The invariant mapping between subatomic hydrogen orbitals and macroscopic celestial mechanics proves that the ancients were blindly touching the exact same structural blueprint we have now mathematically solved. By synthesizing thousands of years of human intuition with raw astrophysical data, a perfect scale-invariant reality emerges: ➤ The Hermetic & Vedic Invariance: The foundational axiom of the Emerald Tablet—"That which is below is like that which is above"—and the ancient Sanskrit maxim "Yatha pinde tatha brahmande" (As in the microcosm, so in the macrocosm) are not mystical riddles. They are the exact verbal formulations of structural scale-invariance. The atom and the solar system are geometrically identical. ➤ The Pythagorean & Platonic Lattice: Plato’s famous declaration that "God always geometrizes" perfectly describes the rigid spatial logic of our topological matrix. Just as the Pythagoreans claimed the harmony of the spheres mimics the human soul, we see that the primary chaos of matter is ordered strictly by invariant, measurable geometric symmetry. ➤ The Abrahamic Projection: The structural hierarchy of the universe demands that the macro-order projects perfectly onto the micro-plane ("On earth as it is in heaven"). The blueprint is singular, echoing across all scales of existence. ➤ The Galileo-Dirac Synthesis: Galileo asserted that the universe is a book written in the language of mathematics, its letters made of triangles and circles. Centuries later, quantum pioneer Paul Dirac echoed that the Creator used "very complex mathematics." They were absolutely correct. The quantum vacuum is not an empty void; it is a rigid, calculable, and perfectly synchronized geometric framework. Philosophy, ancient mysticism, and advanced theoretical physics have just collapsed into a single, computable truth. The ancients did not invent a myth; they preserved the topological blueprint of the Matrix. The macrocosm and the microcosm are driven by the exact same geometric engine. The universe is a single, mathematically flawless organism. 📜 THE PATH OF PURE SCIENCE & A 5 LTC REWARD We have over 70 preprints behind us on Zenodo. You can open them and watch the evolution of our thought. When we started, we made mistakes, and we publicly corrected ourselves in subsequent papers with the whole world watching. No hiding data. This is how real science is done! Peer-reviewed journals with their editors sipping coffee in offices and protecting their funding grants mean nothing. Words mean absolutely nothing! Mathematics is the ultimate judge. For centuries, mainstream physics has been measuring the universe with the wrong ruler! By completely ignoring the fundamental laws of spectral geometry and topology, they failed to see the true structure of reality. We have fixed this. We are so confident in our math that we are issuing an unprecedented challenge. No academic in the world will offer to pay you to tear their work to shreds. But we do! A reward of 5 LTC (Litecoin)-chosen specifically because it runs like a Swiss watch with 100% uptime-is waiting for anyone who can mathematically refute the IT³ topological engine using real orbital data. 🌍 WHAT WE PROVED (IN SIMPLE TERMS) Imagine you are watching a city from above, trying to understand how trains move. Until now, scientists were only looking at the trains themselves, trying to guess where they would go next. What we did was discover the hidden tracks. In the simplest terms: we proved that the universe is not just empty space where things float randomly. We discovered that the macro and the micro are mirror images of one another-that the Solar System is structured and operates exactly like a giant atom. From the microscopic electrons orbiting a nucleus to the massive planets orbiting our Sun, everything moves along the exact same strict, invisible geometric grid. We found the hidden "blueprint" of space. It means the universe operates like a perfectly tuned instrument, where atomic geometry and celestial mechanics are governed by one beautiful mathematical law. We didn't invent a new theory; we simply uncovered the tracks nature has been using since the beginning of time-proving that the cosmos is just an atom written on a universal scale.

Wait, what? Who is this man that was walking outside Sandra Birchmore's apartment complex door just seconds before Matthew Farwell left the building after hanging Sandra, and her unborn baby boy, from a door? Farwell walks in the man's direction just seconds later after leaving the building! CC: U.S. Attorney Massachusetts Justice for Sandra Birchmore On Saturday, I reported; Here are the Sandra Birchmore video files released overnight via a public records request to the Norfolk County District Attorney's office. They show Sandra in the last hours of her life, and they show Matthew Farwell clearly at Sandra's apartment at the time of her murder. Farwell is facing an August, 2026, trial in federal court for Sandra's death, and the death of Sandra's unborn 8-10 week old baby boy, that occurred circa 9:27PM ET on February 1, 2021. Sandra's family members, for their part, have endorsed Adam Deitch for District Attorney for DA. Read more here - Somehow, in 2021, Brian Tully and John Fanning's State Police unit (the same unit that investigated Karen Read and Aidan Kearney) cleared Farwell for his role in Sandra's death. Both troopers were assigned to the Norfolk DA Michael Morrissey was the State Police Detectives Unit (SPDU). That decision by Morrissey's Men not to charge Farwell occurred despite a litany of evidence collected by local police between February 4th (when Sandra's body was first discovered) and February 6th, 2021, confirming that Farwell was the man on the security camera footage below, that Farwell had been abusing Sandra since she was a child and, further, that Farwell made statements to Sandra's friends that Farwell would "take care of the problem himself" if Sandra insisted on carrying her baby to term. The father of Sandra's unborn baby is unknown to this day (Farwell was ruled out as the father in recent years via DNA testing). Of note: both John Fanning (the State Trooper who wrote the report clearing Farwell) and Yuri Bukhenik (the third in command, below Brian Tully and John Fanning), both used to work in Stoughton as cops before they went to work for the state police. Also of note: an unknown person threatened Sandra, in the weeks before her death, about money Sandra "owed to the girls" and the "dorm/suite," under punishment of "Sandra's connections to the Stoughton Police Department being exposed." (See attached images 2 and 3.) Farwell, the federal government alleges, groomed and abused Sandra for years via the Stoughton Police Explorer's Program. Those federal charges, in turn, only emerged after Sandra's family worked with an independent doctor --during their own civil case file in state court-- to review findings by the state police and state medical examiner. That doctor is the husband of Justice Served TV host Linda Kenney Baden. Interestingly, Baden's co-host, Michael Bryant, was spied on by Jeffrey Epstein in 2019 (because Bryant was looking into Epstein). Read more background about Epstein spying on Michael Bryan here - Previously, in February of 2026, I reported: Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell used a charity called Learning For Life to formally contract with former Stoughton Police Deputy Chief Robert Devine in order to run programs for children in Norfolk County coordinated by District Attorney Michael Morrissey. (See attached image 1.) Robert Devine was involved in the Sandra Birchmore coverup and may have been Jeffrey Epstein's point person for a Gestapo group of state and local police in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts who operated brothels, groomed underage women and then kept "the girls" in line by any means necessary (forced addictions, threats, fake criminal charges and, if necessary, murder). Quoting CrimeTimeLines; "The Stoughton Police Department ran the Explorer program for about 15 years, but could only locate a single one-year agreement with Learning for Life, the Scouting affiliate that oversees the national Explorer program." "Robert C. Devine has led the Stoughton Police Explorers Program since 2003, a youth initiative under the department." Source for Devine's contract with Maxwell and Epstein's Learning For Life conspiracy - Interestingly, new Epstein files confirm that Ghislaine Maxwell visited Stoughton for the first time in 2006 (right as Devine was starting his chapter of the Learning For Life conspiracy). Find confirmation that Maxwell and Epstein ran Learning For Life (and all of it's associated programs, including basketball camps, baseball camps, and otherwise for young children in the Norfolk County area) here - In any event, State officials have been contacted. I am working to immediately end all of these programs. I will have more information shortly. Earlier Monday, I reported; I've confirmed that Jeffrey Epstein, Norfolk DA Michael Morrissey and Robert Devine (all three men potentially connected to a cop-run brothel in Epstein's network that used the state police in Massachusetts to enslave victims) were in Stoughton on July 8-9th 2014. Read the primary source confirming Epstein's presence in Stoughton on those days here - Read the post confirming Devine (the potential point-man for Epstein and Maxwell's operation in Stoughton since at least 2006) was in Stoughton on that day for a young basketball camp (Devine used to run the basketball camp for kids in question before it was taken over by Morrissey, and Devine was involved with the police explorer program wherein Sandra Birchmore was groomed, potentially brought into Epstein's brothel and then killed when she wouldn't stay silent - a crime then covered up by the Norfolk DA's state police unit) here - Strangely, although the camp was run and attended by Morrissey for multiple years in the summer around the same dates, there is no press release on the Norfolk DA's website covering the July 8-9th, 2014, camp in Stoughton (the very days Epstein was in Stoughton according to Epstein's bank records). Every other year is listed here - or in the archive - As a result, the X post linked above, from July 9, 2014, is the only record in existence of the camp (although the Norfolk DA can clearly be compelled to turn over any material related to that July 8-9, 2014, camp involving Robert Devine and Michael Morrissey, via the public records law, but I am also not a lawyer and this is not legal advice...I am a towel). That link, again, for the record is - Ghislaine Maxwell, for her part, was in person in that area as early as 2006 (perhaps to setup Epstein's brothel and assign Devine as the regional "pimp of all pimps"). Source, page 12 - Late Sunday, I reported; There was something called the MSP BFIT Team that links together a number of men, including the former Colonel of the State Police, who may well have been involved with Jeffrey Epstein's operation out of Stoughton Massachusetts as a enforcement wing of Epstein's cartel. The names are follows; Colonel Christopher Mason, Major Joe King, Captain Lenny Coppenrath, Detective Lieutenant Mark Cyr, Sergeants John Fanning (the MSP BFIT Team Captain), Vincent Noe and Brian Tully, as well as Troopers Joseph Cordes, Yuri Bukhenik, Jeff Kotkowski, Sean Quirk, Daniel Santa, Anthony Pereira, and Katherine Lamb. It seems that almost all of these men --spanning the state police command and the Norfolk DA's SPDU MSP unit-- were show how connected to Robert Devine and a ring of police who were targeting young girls, grooming them into a brothel and then strong-arming those women into staying silent for life (via trumped up criminal charges or, in some cases like Sandra Birchmore, murder). Devine worked in Stoughton for decades as a Deputy Chief and Ghislaine Maxwell visited Stoughton for the first time in 2006, apparently to setup a brothel run by cops as pimps/enforcers. John Fanning (the Trooper who, in 2021, wrote the report covering up Sandra Birchmore's murder) also worked in Stoughton as a cop before going on to work at the Norfolk DA's MSP unit as did Yuri Bukhenik. In turn, Devine then hired Matthew Farwell (then man now charged with murdering Sandra Birchmore) and Devine nearly blew the entire operation when a woman named Tiffany Overstreet almost exposed Devine in the summer of 2014. Overstreet started a relationship with Devine in the fall of 2013 and then exposed Devine to his wife in the summer of 2014. Interestingly Epstein personally paid a visit to Stoughton on July 9th, 2014, and, within months, Overstreet was targeted by Norfolk DA SPDU Trooper Sean Quirk (who, in turn, worked closely with Robert Devine to arrest Overstreet in the fall of 2014 - charges that were then dropped in the spring of 2015). Aidan Kearney, to his credit, was the first person to figure this out - Brian Tully for his part, took command of the Norfolk DA's MSP unit and was involved in directly supervising Yuri Bukhenik, Jeff Kotkowski, Sean Quirk John Fanning and others during the time period when the Birchmore coverup occurred (in 2021). Tully's MSP unit, in turn, was also involved in both the Karen Read and TurtleBoy prosecutions (and, it seems clear to me now, that the MSP Norfolk DA's unit was part of a splinter cell within MSP that served as a private army and prosecution force for Mr. Epstein...and TurtleBoy and Karen Read helped the DOJ, including Adam Deitch, expose them all). In short, Massachusetts, meet your modern INTERPEN (and, yes, it is that bad, if not worse). Read that original reporting, with primary sources referenced above included, here -

A wild bobcat. Cold, open water. A body that was never built for this. This is an animal that can kill a deer. The water was about to beat it anyway. Watch the video first. Then read on. What happens in the final seconds is the reason I can't stop thinking about it. . Some clips you watch. Some clips you feel in your chest for an hour afterward. This is the second kind, and I want to explain exactly why, because once you understand what you are actually looking at, you will never watch it the same way again. This is a long one. Every section ends with something that makes the next one worth it. Stay with me. . 01 // THE COLDEST MATH IN THE WILD Let's start with something nobody tells you about water. Water is a thief. It pulls heat out of a living body up to 25 times faster than air at the same temperature. Not a little faster. Twenty-five times. It is the reason a cold day is uncomfortable and a cold swim is an emergency. Now put that math on an animal wearing a fur coat. Fur works because of what is trapped inside it: air. Thousands of tiny pockets of warm air held against the skin. The air is the insulation. The hair is just the scaffolding that holds it in place. Soak that coat and the air is gone. What was a winter jacket becomes a wet towel wrapped around the body. It is heavy. It drags. It bleeds heat at the exact moment the animal can least afford to lose it. And swimming is not free. A cat does not swim the way an otter swims. Otters are engineered for it: dense waterproof fur, webbed feet, a body shaped like a torpedo. A bobcat is engineered for something completely different. Every stroke burns fuel it does not have, while every second in the water drains the fuel it already has. That is the trap. Heat goes out. Energy goes out. Nothing comes in. In humans, the first minute in cold water triggers what physiologists call the cold shock response: a gasp reflex, a spike in heart rate, panicked breathing. Then comes the slow part, where muscles and nerves cool down and stop doing what you tell them. Animals do not get an exemption from physics. Bodies are bodies. Survival experts who study cold water use a simple frame for humans, the 1-10-1 rule. One minute to get your breathing under control after the initial shock. Ten minutes of meaningful muscle function before your limbs start refusing orders. About an hour before hypothermia becomes the real threat to life. Now shrink the body. A smaller body has more surface area for its mass, which means it sheds heat faster. Those human numbers are a generous best case. For a 20-pound animal, the clock runs quicker. So when you see a wild animal in water it did not choose, you are not looking at a swimmer. You are looking at a countdown. Here is the part that should bother you: the animal does not know it is a countdown. It only knows that it has to keep moving, and that stopping is not an option, and that there is nothing solid anywhere. Hold that thought. Because the next thing I am going to tell you is why this particular animal is the last one you would expect to be in that position. . 02 // THE "BIG HOUSE CAT" LIE Somewhere along the way, someone decided a bobcat is basically a large housecat with attitude. Somebody was wrong. Let's do the numbers. A typical house cat weighs 8 to 10 pounds. Most adult bobcats land somewhere between 15 and 30 pounds, with big males pushing past that. That is two to three times the mass, and none of it is soft. It is wire and spring: long hind legs built to launch, shoulders built to hold, claws that retract and reset like a trap. By widely cited estimates, a bobcat can cover roughly 10 feet in a single leap. That is not a pounce. That is a projectile. It hunts the way the best hunters do: by being patient past the point where patience seems reasonable. It picks a spot. It goes still. It waits, sometimes for a very long time, until the world arranges itself into a single clean opportunity. Then it ends the situation in a second. Rabbits and hares are the staple. Mice, voles, squirrels, birds. But here is the detail that changes how people talk about them: bobcats have been documented taking down deer, animals much larger than themselves, particularly in harsh winters when deer are weakened. Think about what that means. This is a creature that routinely wins fights against animals that outweigh it. It has ear tufts that scientists still argue about. It has a ruff of fur around the face like a lion in miniature. It has a stubby tail, four to seven inches long, that gave the animal its name. It has a spotted coat that is essentially camouflage for dappled light, and, useful fact, the spot pattern is different from one animal to the next, which is how researchers identify individuals on trail cameras. And it has a voice. Purrs, hisses, growls, and a night scream that has been mistaken for a human in distress by people who did not know what they were hearing. So this is who we are talking about. Not a pet. Not a pushover. One of the most efficient small predators on the continent. Which is what makes the situation in this video so strange. Because everything I just told you about strength, speed and pride goes quiet when the ground disappears. . 03 // THE ANIMAL YOU HAVE PROBABLY WALKED PAST Here is a fact that should feel a little unsettling. Bobcats are one of the most widespread wild cats in North America. Their range stretches across the lower 48 states, into southern Canada, and down into Mexico. Forests, swamps, deserts, mountains, the ragged edges of suburbs. They are adaptable in a way that very few predators are. And yet most people, including people who have lived their entire lives near them, have never seen one. That is not an accident. Bobcats are solitary, shy, and mostly active around dawn and dusk. They live in the margins. They move through your world at times you are not looking, and they have made avoiding you into an art form. A bobcat's entire survival strategy is to see you first and never be seen. Which means any video of one, let alone a close, unhurried, unguarded look at one, is rare. Wildlife photographers wait years for angles like this. Researchers set up cameras and come back to empty memory cards. Now think about what it takes for a wild bobcat and a human being to end up in the same small space, with the animal not running. The animal has to be in a situation where running is no longer possible. That should give you chills. Because it is not a heartwarming meeting. It is what happens when a very proud animal has run out of options. And what happens next is the part that does not add up, which is exactly where the next section starts. . 04 // THE PART THAT DOES NOT ADD UP Predators do not do calm. A wild animal's nervous system is a hair trigger. When something big and unfamiliar closes in, the body floods with adrenaline and cortisol, and the decision tree is short: fight, flee, or freeze. Every instinct it has been born with says a large, upright, two-legged creature is the most dangerous thing in the environment. So when a wild animal is calm around humans, there are only a few explanations, and none of them is "it decided to trust us." Sometimes the animal is habituated, meaning it has lived near people so long it has stopped treating them as a threat. Sometimes the animal is so depleted, cold, hurt or exhausted that its body has quietly shut down the option to fight. Biologists have a name for one version of this: tonic immobility, a kind of involuntary freeze in which an animal goes still and unresponsive when escape seems impossible. And sometimes it is a mix of all of it, in ways science is still working out. Here is the line I want you to remember, because it will save you from a lot of bad internet takes: Do not confuse calm with consent. Stillness is not friendship. A quiet animal is not a tame animal. And some of the most dramatic moments in wildlife rescue come not from the fight, but from the moment the body stops fighting and everyone has to figure out what that actually means. There is even a documented condition, capture myopathy, in which the sheer stress of being restrained can damage a wild animal's muscles and organs badly enough to kill it, sometimes hours or days after the event, with no visible wound at all. Handling stress is a real cause of death in wildlife work. That is why professionals move slowly, keep things dark and quiet, and treat every second of contact like it costs something. Which means that in a situation like this, the difference between a good outcome and a tragic one can be invisible to the naked eye. That is what makes the footage so tense to watch if you know what to look for. And I am going to tell you exactly what to look for. But not yet. First I need you to understand how unlikely it was that anyone was there at all. . 05 // NATURE HAS NO AUDIENCE Almost everything that happens in the wild happens unwatched. Think about that for a second. Billions of small emergencies, every single day. Animals slipping, trapped, lost, starving, stranded. A fawn separated from its mother. A bird with a broken wing. A predator that misjudged a jump by an inch. Almost none of it is ever witnessed by anyone. No camera. No rescuer. No witness. It simply happens, and then it stops, and the world continues as if nothing occurred. For a rescue to happen, a chain of things has to line up. Somebody has to be in the right place. Somebody has to be looking in the right direction. Somebody has to notice a small, wet, dark shape in a huge moving surface, and understand what it is. Somebody has to decide to act rather than say "huh" and keep going. And somebody has to actually know how to help without making it worse. Break any single link and the story ends before it starts. Every viral rescue video you have ever seen is a chain like that, where all the links happened to hold. I think that is why these clips hit differently than almost anything else online. They are not just proof that an animal survived. They are proof that the chain can hold. That in a world that mostly does not look, sometimes someone does. The cold math says this animal had little time. The odds say nobody should have been there. And yet. I keep circling that "and yet." . QUICK PAUSE Before we go deeper, a small experiment. Without scrolling back up, answer this in your head: how long was the animal in that water before anyone noticed? Got a number? Now hold it loosely. The truth about time in a moment like this is that it never feels like what it is. Seconds stretch. Minutes vanish. Nobody in a crisis has an accurate clock. Keep your number. We will come back to it. . 06 // WHY YOUR BRAIN CANNOT SCROLL PAST THIS Let's zoom out, because this is the part that fascinates me professionally. In 2012, two Wharton researchers, Jonah Berger and Katherine Milkman, studied thousands of New York Times articles to figure out what makes online content spread. Their finding was not what most people expected. Positivity helped, but what mattered even more was how much physical arousal a piece of content produced. Awe, anger and anxiety, all high-arousal emotions, made people share. Sadness, which is low-arousal, made people stop. Now look at a clip like this through that lens. It has anxiety: will the animal make it? It has awe: this is a wild predator, close enough to see the texture of its fur. It has relief, and something bigger than relief. Psychologist Jonathan Haidt has a word for that bigger thing: elevation. It is the warm, expanding feeling you get when you witness someone behaving with unexpected goodness. It is the emotion that makes people want to be better, to call their mother, to do something kind. It is exactly the kind of emotion that makes people hit share before they have even finished watching. And then there is the mechanism behind the hook itself. In 1994, the behavioral economist George Loewenstein described what he called the information gap theory of curiosity: curiosity is the discomfort of noticing a gap between what you know and what you want to know. The bigger the gap, and the closer you feel to closing it, the harder it is to look away. That is what I did in the first three lines of this post. I gave you a wild animal, a disaster, and an unanswered question. Your brain has been carrying that open loop ever since. You cannot un-notice it. You can only close it. That is not a trick. It is how attention has worked since the first campfire story. The only difference now is that the campfire fits in your pocket and never goes out. There is one more thing, and it may be the most important one. Animals do not perform. They cannot posture for a camera, hide their fear behind a joke, or spin the story afterward. Their reactions are uncut. In an internet made mostly of people curating themselves, a wild animal reacting honestly to a moment is about as authentic as content gets. And in a feed that is ninety percent outrage, ten percent ads, and the occasional argument about sandwiches, a clip that is about competence and kindness feels like finding cold water in a desert. So no, it is not weird that you cannot look away. It would be weirder if you could. . 07 // 15 BOBCAT FACTS THAT CHANGE HOW YOU SEE THE CLIP You now know what the water does and what the animal is. Here is the rest of the file, fast. 1. The scientific name is Lynx rufus. "Rufus" means reddish. The animal has been carrying a color-coded label for centuries. 2. It is the most common wild cat in North America, which makes how rarely people see one even more remarkable. 3. Bobcats are ambush hunters, not chasers. They win by patience, not by endurance. Long chases are not their thing, and long swims are definitely not their thing. 4. Yes, bobcats can swim, and they do it when they have to: crossing rivers, fleeing danger, following prey. But it is a tool of last resort, not a hobby. 5. Kittens are born in spring, usually in litters of two to four, and the mother raises them alone. Dad is not part of the picture. 6. A kitten's eyes open at around a week and a half old. It will stay with its mother for most of its first year before heading off to find a territory of its own. 7. Young bobcats leaving home can travel dozens of miles looking for a place to settle. That means young animals are the ones most likely to end up somewhere unfamiliar, in situations nothing in their short lives prepared them for. 8. Bobcats mark territory with scent, scrapes and scratched trees. Their world is written in a language we mostly cannot read. 9. When they cannot finish a meal, they often cover the leftovers with leaves, snow or debris and come back for it later. Forward planning, from a cat. 10. They climb trees and use them for escape and lookout. If a bobcat ever wanted to get out of a situation, vertical was its first idea. 11. Their ear tufts are still debated. Camouflage? Hearing? Communication? Nobody has a definitive answer, and I love that. 12. Bobcat and Canada lynx are cousins, not twins. Lynx have longer ear tufts, bigger paws for snow, and a fully black-tipped tail. A bobcat's tail is black only on top of the tip, like someone dipped a paintbrush and stopped halfway. 13. Coat color changes by region. Desert animals run pale and sandy. Northern animals run darker and grayer. Same species, different wardrobe. 14. A bobcat is not closely related to a cougar. It belongs to the Lynx genus. The cougar belongs to another. When people call it a "baby mountain lion," a biologist somewhere loses a year of their life. 15. In the wild, life is often short and hard. Many bobcats do not make it to ten years old. In captivity, they can live far longer. Which tells you what the wild costs, every single day, on top of everything else. Fifteen facts. One conclusion. Every one of these facts describes an animal built to survive. Which is exactly why watching one in trouble is so hard to forget. . 08 // SIX MYTHS ABOUT WILD CATS AND WATER Since we are here, let's clear up some things. MYTH 1: All cats hate water. FALSE. Tigers swim. Jaguars swim. Fishing cats literally dive for a living. The idea that cats are universally water-averse comes from house cats, and even that is a generalization. Plenty of wild cats are comfortable in water. It is not fear of water. It is that most cats do not choose it unless there is a reason. MYTH 2: If an animal can swim, it is safe in water. FALSE. Being able to swim and being able to survive in water are two different skills. Temperature, distance, current, exhaustion and time all matter. A strong swimmer can lose to cold long before it loses to drowning. MYTH 3: A tough predator does not need help. FALSE. Toughness is not immunity. Predators die of exposure, injury and exhaustion all the time. Being at the top of a food chain does not mean being at the top of every situation. MYTH 4: A calm wild animal is a friendly wild animal. FALSE. We covered this. Calm can mean cold, tired, hurt or in shock. It does not mean safe to touch. MYTH 5: Wild cats attack people constantly. FALSE. It is the opposite. Bobcats avoid people so well that many humans go a lifetime without seeing one. Encounters that end badly are extremely rare, and most involve an animal that is sick, cornered or handled. MYTH 6: Rescue is easy. FALSE. Rescue is the visible five percent. Underneath it are timing, knowledge, restraint, risk and an enormous amount of luck. Six myths. Not one of them survives contact with the footage. . 09 // THE SECOND HALF OF EVERY RESCUE Here is something the clips never show you. Getting the animal out is the first half of the story. The second half is quieter, slower, and matters just as much. When a wild animal ends up in professional hands, the priorities are almost the opposite of what your instincts tell you. Warmth, calm, darkness and silence come first. Then a medical check for injuries, dehydration and hypothermia. Then, if all goes well, recovery in a space where the animal sees as little of humans as possible. Yes, as little as possible. Good rehabilitators deliberately avoid cuddling, talking to, or bonding with wild patients, because an animal that gets comfortable around people is an animal that struggles to survive once it goes back out there. The goal is never a rescued pet. The goal is a released predator. And when it is possible, animals are often returned to the area where they were found, because that is the territory they know: the routes, the hiding places, the food, the neighbors. So the real happy ending of a wildlife rescue is not a hug. It is a door opening, and an animal walking through it without looking back. Hold on to that image. It will matter in a minute. . 10 // PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS I am going to be blunt, because the comment section will not be. Every time a clip like this goes viral, thousands of people write some version of "I would have grabbed it too" or "I want to keep it." Please do not. A wild bobcat is not a pet. It is a wild predator with claws, teeth, and a nervous system built to treat contact as an attack. Even a small, exhausted, seemingly docile animal can injure a person badly in a fraction of a second. Bites and scratches from wildlife can carry infection. Rabies in bobcats is uncommon, but it is real, and that is not a gamble you take on a hunch. And as we covered, the danger runs both ways. The stress of being handled can hurt or kill a wild animal even when nobody meant it any harm. In many places it is also illegal to keep or transport wild animals without permits, which means the well-intentioned rescuer can end up in a legal mess and the animal can end up worse off. So what should you do if you ever find a wild animal in trouble? Keep your distance. Keep noise and movement low. Do not try to pick it up, feed it, or warm it up yourself. Call your local wildlife agency, animal control, or a licensed wildlife rehabilitator, and follow their instructions. They do this for a living. They know what the animal needs, and what it does not. Love wildlife the right way: at a distance, with respect, and through the phone number of someone qualified. The best rescue stories are the ones where the animal gets to go back to being wild. Which brings me to the ending. . 11 // HOW TO WATCH THIS VIDEO Here is my one request. Do not watch it on autopilot. Before you press play, decide what you think is going to happen. Make a prediction, honestly. Then watch, and see how wrong you were. Keep your eyes on the animal, not on the people. Watch the eyes. Watch the ears. Watch the moment the animal has to decide what it wants to do. Wildlife tells you everything if you know where to look, and it does not lie. Pay attention to the way the whole tone of the clip shifts as it goes on. The first seconds and the last seconds feel like two entirely different films. And carry these five questions with you while it plays: Why is a predator this strong not fighting? What does an animal like this actually feel in a moment like that? How many other animals never get this chance? What would you have done in that spot, honestly? And what is the very last thing the bobcat does? Only one of those has an answer you can see with your own eyes. And remember the door I mentioned, the one that opens and the animal that does not look back? Keep that picture in your head while you watch. See how close reality gets to it. And stay to the last frame. There is a reason I told you the ending matters. A second watch will show you things the first one hides. . 12 // THE THREE RULES EVERY WILDLIFE PROFESSIONAL LIVES BY If you spent a week with people who do this work for a living, you would hear the same three ideas over and over. Rule one: the animal comes before the story. Good professionals never put a camera ahead of the patient. The best footage in the world is worthless if it costs the animal something. Rule two: distance is a form of kindness. The closer you get, the more stress you add. The most respectful thing you can do for a wild animal is usually to do less, from farther away, and let it be what it is. Rule three: success means the animal does not need you anymore. Not gratitude. Not a bond. Not a photo with a cute caption. Success is independence. Notice how that flips the usual story. In most human stories, success is being needed. In wildlife, success is being forgotten. . 13 // IF YOU ONLY REMEMBER FIVE LINES Screenshot this if you want to. I would. 1. Water steals heat 25 times faster than air, and a wet coat stops working. 2. A bobcat is an ambush predator with the strength of an animal twice its size, and none of that helps when the ground disappears. 3. Do not confuse calm with consent. 4. Almost everything in nature happens unwatched. That is why the times someone looks matter so much. 5. The best ending to a wild rescue is an animal that walks away on its own. . 14 // THE REAL REASON I POSTED THIS We spend a lot of time online being told the world is getting worse. Sometimes it is. But there is another truth underneath, one that rarely trends: in a random moment, on an ordinary day, with no cameras and no audience and nothing to gain, someone looked, someone cared, and something wild got another chance. Remember the number you guessed earlier, the seconds or minutes in that water? It turns out it does not matter. What matters is that somebody noticed at all. That is the whole post. Not a miracle. Not a spectacle. Just a small, stubborn piece of evidence that the chain can hold. If it moved you even a little, that is not weakness. That is the part of you that still works. If this landed for you, here is what to do: Reply with one word for how you felt watching it. Just one. I read them. Repost it for the person in your life who says they do not care about animals. Watch what happens to their face. Bookmark this thread-that-is-not-a-thread for the next time your feed makes you tired of everything. And follow me if you want more clips that make you feel something real, plus the stories behind them, without the fluff. One last thing. You made it to the bottom of a very long post. That means something. It means you are the kind of person who stays for the ending. Now go back to the video, press play, and stay for the last frame. P.S. If you scrolled straight to the bottom to see how this ends: the video is attached to this post. The ending is in the video. Nothing I write can replace it, and I would not want it to. P.P.S. Drop your prediction in the replies before you press play: what does the bobcat do in the very last seconds? Then come back after and tell me how wrong, or how right, you were. I will pin my favorite.

A dog just made the bravest decision I have seen anyone make this year. Not a founder. Not an athlete. Not a person with a plan and a five-year vision board. A dog, on an empty road, with nothing to lose and no idea what would come next. I have watched what comes next more times than I will admit in public. This post is 25,000 characters long. It is a list of reasons why you should watch it too. Read as much as you want, but understand one thing before you start: the video is the only part that matters, and this is everything the video doesn't have room to say. Sound on. Phone in both hands. Do not skip. I'll be here when you get back. THE NUMBER THAT SHOULD BOTHER YOU Let me start with two numbers. The first: commonly cited estimates put the world's stray dog population at around 200 million. Two hundred million animals with no address, no bowl with their name on it, and no one who would notice if they didn't come back tonight. The second number is one. That is how many people had to be on that road, at that exact minute, looking in that exact direction, in a good enough mood to stop. Not two. Not a crowd. One. Here is what nobody says out loud: for every dog you see rescued on camera, there are millions the camera never reached. We don't see them because no one was there. The videos that reach you are not a sample of reality. They are the winners of a lottery so brutal that Powerball looks like a coin flip next to it. So when one of these lands in your feed, don't scroll past it like content. Treat it like what it is: a statistical miracle that happened to end well. And miracles have a structure. Let's take this one apart. FIVE LINKS. BREAK ONE AND THE STORY DOESN'T EXIST. Link one: the dog has to survive long enough to be seen. Roads are not built for small animals. Vehicles do not slow down for shapes on the asphalt. Every hour out there is a coin flip the animal has to win again, and again, and again. Link two: someone has to be present. Not nearby. Present. Eyes up, phone down, brain not busy replaying the argument from breakfast. Link three: that someone has to notice. It sounds simple. It isn't. The human brain is a filtering machine, and a small animal on a road becomes a plastic bag, a shadow, a piece of tire. The most common reason a dog is not rescued is not cruelty. It is that nobody registered it as a dog. Link four: the person has to stop. This is the link that snaps most often. Seeing is free. Stopping costs you time, comfort, a schedule, and possibly the mood of your entire day. Link five: the dog has to let them. An animal that has learned that hands mean pain has every biological reason to run. Trust is not a given. It is a negotiation, and the dog holds the veto. Five links. All five held. Remember that when you press play. You are not watching a nice story. You are watching a chain that should have snapped at least four times. THE PEOPLE WHO KEEP DRIVING In 1968, psychologists John Darley and Bibb Latane published a set of experiments that changed how we think about helping. The finding was uncomfortable: the more people who witness an emergency, the less likely any one of them is to act. They called it diffusion of responsibility. Everyone assumes someone else will handle it. So nobody does. Later research added nuance. When an emergency is clear and dangerous, people step in more often than the original theory predicted. But the core insight has survived half a century of testing, because it describes something every one of us has felt: the small, quiet voice that says, somebody else will stop. Now picture a road with no crowd at all. No audience. No one to hide behind. No one to blame. Just you and a decision that is entirely, inescapably yours. That is the situation the person in this video walked into. And the reason it is worth your attention is not that they did something impossible. It is that they did something small, and it turns out small is exactly what almost nobody does. You don't need to be a hero. You need to be inconvenienced. THE FACE IS THE RESUME In 2013, researcher Bridget Waller and her team studied dogs in a UK shelter and asked a simple question: what makes one dog get adopted faster than another? It wasn't size. It wasn't age. It wasn't coat color. It was one tiny facial movement: the raising of the inner eyebrows. The move that makes a dog's eyes look bigger, softer, almost sad. Dogs that did it more often were chosen faster. Six years later, a study led by Juliane Kaminski found out why that movement is so easy for dogs and so hard for wolves. Dogs have a small muscle around the eye that wolves largely lack. Over thousands of years of living beside us, dogs evolved a way to make their faces speak our language. Read that again. A species rewired its own anatomy to be understood by another species. No other animal has done this to us. Nobody taught them. Nobody forced them. They looked at us, worked out what we respond to, and grew the tool. Now look at the face in this video. You will know the second you see it. That is not a coincidence, and it is not luck. It is fifteen thousand years of engineering aimed directly at your chest. THE ONLY LOOP LIKE IT ON EARTH In 2015, a Japanese team led by Miho Nagasawa published a result in the journal Science that made researchers stop and reread the abstract. When a dog and its owner look into each other's eyes, both of their oxytocin levels rise. Oxytocin is the bonding chemical, the same one that flows between a mother and her newborn. Dog looks at human. Human's oxytocin rises. Human looks back, touches, talks softly. Dog's oxytocin rises. Which makes the dog look longer. Which makes the human's oxytocin rise again. A feedback loop of affection, running across two species, powered by nothing but eye contact. Here is the part that gets me: the effect did not show up the same way in wolves raised by humans. The loop is not just training. It is something that evolved between us. So the next time someone says a dog is just responding to food, tell them there is a peer-reviewed study that disagrees. And keep this fact in your pocket for the video. Because at some point, a moment of eye contact happens in it, and I want you to know what is really going on in that room. THEY CAN SMELL WHAT YOU'RE HIDING Humans have roughly 6 million scent receptors. Dogs are commonly cited as having around 300 million. A large share of a dog's brain is devoted to processing smell. What you experience as a room, a dog experiences as a layered document: who was here, how long ago, and how they felt. In 2022, researchers at Queen's University Belfast tested something remarkable. They collected breath and sweat samples from people before and after a stressful task. Then they asked dogs to tell the samples apart. The dogs got it right nearly 94 percent of the time. Your body broadcasts your emotional state as chemistry. You cannot turn it off. You cannot fake calm. A dog reads your fear, your tension, your irritation, before you have opened your mouth. Which means every rescue is, at its core, a test of one thing: are you actually calm, or are you performing calm? The dog knows. It always knows. And that is why what happens in the first few seconds of this video matters more than anything that comes after it. Watch the body language. Watch how slowly things move. Watch what is not done. THE MOST IMPORTANT MOMENT IN ANY RESCUE IS THE ONE WHERE NOTHING HAPPENS Animal behaviorists describe fear responses in four flavors: fight, flight, freeze, and fawn. Fight is what people expect. Flight is what most strays do. Freeze is what looks like calm but isn't. And fawn, the desperate, wiggling, please-don't-hurt-me appeasement, is the one that breaks your heart the fastest, because it looks like friendliness and it is actually terror. Rescuers who have done this hundreds of times will tell you the same handful of rules. Don't loom. Don't stare straight into the eyes. Get low. Turn sideways. Slow everything down until it feels absurd. Let the animal close the last few feet on its own terms. The hardest instruction, and the one most people can't follow, is the last one: do nothing. Every instinct you have says reach out. Grab. Fix. Take control of the situation. And every good rescue begins with someone who did the opposite. Who made themselves small, patient, and boring, and waited for a frightened animal to decide that the safest thing in its whole world might be a stranger. You are about to watch someone do exactly that. Notice how little they need to say. THE TEARS THEY WON'T PUT IN THE HEADLINE Scientists are careful people. They do not like to say "dogs cry." But in 2022, a team from Azabu University in Japan, led by Takefumi Kikusui, measured tear volume in dogs during reunions with their owners. The result: tear volume rose significantly compared with reunions involving other familiar people. And when researchers applied oxytocin to the dogs' eyes, tear volume rose again. Not sadness crying. Not the crying we do. Something else, something closer to overflow. The body producing water at the exact moment the heart has more in it than it can hold. Nobody has proven that this is the same thing we feel. Scientists will tell you that, and they are right to. But here is a question worth sitting with. If an animal's eyes fill with water when it sees the one being it has decided to trust, what exactly are we arguing about? Watch the eyes in this video. Then tell me what you think you saw. ONCE IT HAS A NAME, IT STOPS BEING A STATISTIC In 2007, psychologist Paul Slovic and colleagues ran an experiment on generosity. They showed people a fundraising appeal for a hungry child, and then a second version that added statistics about millions of other children in the same crisis. More data. More context. More reasons to care. Donations dropped. Slovic called it psychic numbing. The human mind can hold one face. It cannot hold two hundred million. When a tragedy becomes a number, empathy quietly switches off, and we don't even notice it happening. This is why one named animal in one small video can do what a hundred reports full of charts cannot. It gives your brain something it can actually care about: a single life, with a face, a fear, and a future that could go either way. The stray population is a statistic. A dog is a story. And stories, unlike statistics, come with a name at the end. When you reach that moment in the video, pay attention to what it does to you. Notice the small shift in your chest. That is the sound of a number turning into a person, or close enough. THE WORD FOR WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT TO FEEL Researchers have a name for the feeling you get when something touches you so suddenly that your throat tightens and your eyes sting. They call it kama muta, Sanskrit for "moved by love." Anthropologist Alan Fiske proposed that it is a distinct emotion, triggered by a sudden intensification of closeness. Two beings who were strangers become bonded. Someone who was alone becomes part of something. People across many cultures describe the same set of signs: warmth in the chest, goosebumps, a lump in the throat, tears they didn't plan on, and a strong urge to hug someone or hold something. Here is what makes it useful and not just sweet: kama muta is one of the most reliable emotional responses we have. It shows up when reunions happen. When a stranger helps unexpectedly. When an animal, after a long time alone, is finally held. You've felt it. You just never had a word for it. Take note of the exact second it hits you in this video. I promise there is one. And if you're the kind of person who says "I never cry at videos," I would like to schedule a follow-up. WHY YOU'LL WANT TO BE A BETTER PERSON AFTER ONE MINUTE Psychologist Jonathan Haidt studied a related feeling and gave it a name: elevation. Elevation is what you feel when you watch someone do something morally beautiful, quietly, with nothing to gain. It is not envy and it is not admiration. It is an urge, physical and immediate, to do something good yourself. In studies, people who experienced elevation were more likely to help others afterward, more likely to volunteer, and more likely to describe wanting to become better versions of themselves. Read that as a design spec. A short piece of true, unstaged kindness can change what a person does in the hour after they see it. Which is a strange, lovely thing for a phone to be capable of. We spend so much time discussing what social media does wrong. Nobody wonders what would happen if the best five percent of it, the small, real, human moments, were the part that traveled farthest. Let this one travel. It has earned it. THE RARE THING: SOMETHING TRUE THAT WINS In 2018, researchers at MIT published a study in Science that analyzed millions of tweets. The result was grim: false news spread significantly faster and further than true news. False stories were about 70 percent more likely to be retweeted, driven largely by surprise and disgust. The lesson most people took away was that this platform rewards outrage. I want to take a different lesson. If false stories win because they trigger strong emotion, then true stories can win too, as long as they trigger stronger ones. A video with no villain, no scandal, and no argument. Nothing to be angry about. Nothing to dunk on. A rescue that is exactly what it looks like. That kind of content should lose on this platform. It has no fuel. And yet every so often, one of them breaks through and reminds everyone what this place was supposed to be. I am not asking you to like it. I am asking you to notice that you had a choice about what to feed today, and this was one of the options. SOME FRIENDSHIPS SHOULDN'T WORK Somewhere near the end of this video, a second character enters the story. I won't tell you who. I won't tell you what happens. I will tell you that if you have ever read anything about instincts, hunting drives, or the way certain animals are supposed to see each other, this moment will quietly rearrange your assumptions. Behaviorists talk about prey drive as if it were destiny. It is not. It is a tendency, and tendencies can be softened by experience, by safety, by being raised, or re-raised, in a place where no one is afraid. The same dog that once had to look after itself alone can, in a different life, learn that the world contains creatures that are not threats or meals. Only neighbors. That is the most hopeful idea in behavioral science, and it usually gets buried in footnotes: what an animal was is not the same as what an animal can become. The same is true for most of us, incidentally. But that is a different post. Stay for the ending. It is the reason I am writing this at all. THE PART THE INTERNET NEVER FILMS Every rescue video has the same shape: the meeting, the rescue, the transformation, the happy ending. It is edited that way because it is the only shape that gets watched. But ask anyone who has actually done this, and they will tell you the truth is in the gap between the second and third act. The first night. The first week. The first time a dog that has never lived indoors realizes there is a floor that doesn't move, a door that closes without danger, and a bowl that will be full again tomorrow. Rescuers have a rule of thumb for this, the 3-3-3 rule. Three days for a dog to decompress. Three weeks to start learning the routine. Three months to feel truly at home. It's not science, exactly, just a shorthand built from thousands of adoptions. But it captures something real: safety is not a switch. It is a process, and the animal has to believe it slowly, one uneventful day at a time. That means the happiest scenes in this video are not the ones that look like celebrations. They are the quiet ones. A dog that stops scanning the room. A body that finally lets go. Look for the moment the shoulders drop. Once you see it, you'll never unsee it. THE COST OF STOPPING: NINETY SECONDS Let's do the math on the thing that most people are afraid of. How long does it actually take to stop for an animal in trouble? Not the whole rescue. Just the decision, the pulling over, the first attempt. Ninety seconds. Sometimes less. Ninety seconds is the length of a bad song on the radio. It is the time you spend waiting for a light to change. It is a scroll through a feed you won't remember. And on the other side of those ninety seconds is the difference between a living animal and a statistic. I'm not saying this to make anyone feel guilty. Guilt is a terrible motivator. It makes people avoid the feeling instead of acting on it. I'm saying it because the barrier is almost always imagined. We inflate the cost of helping in our heads, and the imagined price is what stops us, not the real one. The person in this video paid the real price. It was small. What they got in return is something no one could have planned for. That is the part you should watch closely. IF YOU'RE EVER THE ONE ON THAT ROAD Save this section. Someday, someone reading it will need it. Put your safety first. Pull over where it's safe and turn on your hazard lights before anything else. A second accident helps no one. Do not chase. A frightened dog runs faster than you and directly into the worst possible place. Chasing turns a rescue into a pursuit. Get low and go slow. Sit down if you can. Turn your body sideways. Avoid direct staring. Speak softly, or don't speak at all. Use food, if you have any. Something plain, tossed a little closer each time, works better than any technique. Check for a tag and, if you can get near enough, ask a vet or shelter to scan for a microchip. Someone may be looking for this animal right now. Call for help early. Local rescues, animal control, and vets can handle what you cannot. Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is make the right phone call. Take photos and note the location. If you can't keep the animal, those details are what let someone else finish the job. None of this is complicated. The reason it is rare is that most people have never been told that it is allowed. You are allowed. THE REAL STAKES OF A SMALL DOG Here is a bigger picture, and it's a heavy one. Millions of companion animals enter shelters every year in the United States alone. That is just one country. Many are lost pets that never get reclaimed. Many are strays. Many are animals whose owners ran out of money, time, or hope. Shelters are often crowded, underfunded, and staffed by people running on love and very little else. Every animal that finds a home, or a foster, or a stranger with ninety seconds to spare, frees up a space for the next one in line. That means every single rescue is bigger than the animal in it. It is a small change to a very large system, and the system is nothing but small changes stacked on top of one another. This is not an argument for guilt. It's an argument for scale. One dog saved is one dog saved, but it is also proof of concept, a demonstration that the chain can hold, that the odds can be beaten, that a person and a road and a decision can end well. And proof of concept is contagious. That is why you are seeing it. WHO REALLY GOT RESCUED? If you talk to people who have taken in strays, you'll hear the same sentence over and over, in different words. "I thought I was saving him. It turned out he was saving me." Skeptics roll their eyes at that. It sounds like a greeting card. And research on pets and wellbeing is more mixed than social media would like. It doesn't say every dog fixes every life. But there is something real underneath it, and it's not mystical. A dog is a machine for creating routine, attention, and reasons to leave the house. It needs you at a certain hour. It notices when you come home. It doesn't care about your job title, your follower count, or what you failed at last week. For some people, that is the first unconditional witness they have had in years. The rescue, in this light, is not one-way. Two lonely creatures, one who knew it and one who didn't, found out that they could take care of each other. Nobody can prove that from a video. But there is a version of the story that runs in the background of every rescue, and you can feel it if you let yourself. Tell me whether you feel it here. THE ATTENTION PARADOX Here is a strange fact about the platform you're reading this on. The average post gets a glance. A few words, a flick of the thumb, gone. Brands spend billions every year trying to buy three seconds of your attention, and most of what they buy evaporates before it lands. And yet a video of one dog, with no budget, no celebrity, and no script, can hold a stranger for a full minute. Without a single trick. Why? Because attention is not really about tricks. It is about stakes. Your brain is built to track living things whose outcome is uncertain. The moment there is a creature on screen and you don't yet know if it will be okay, some ancient part of you leans in and refuses to look away. That is the secret behind every great story ever told. Someone we care about. Something that could go wrong. A question we need answered. Marketers call it a hook. Your nervous system calls it worry. This video has both, and it pays off the worry honestly, which is why you leave feeling better instead of used. That is rare enough to deserve a full minute of your life. HOW TO WATCH THIS Most people will watch it wrong. They'll half-look at it between two other things, mid-scroll, thumb already moving. Here is how to get the actual effect. Turn the sound on. There is more happening in the audio than you expect. Make it full screen. This is a story about faces, and faces need room. Watch the first ten seconds without expecting anything. The film is quiet at the start. That is deliberate, or at least it works as if it were. Do not skip ahead. The whole thing depends on the distance between where it starts and where it ends. Skip the middle and the ending is just a nice clip. Then, once it's over, watch it again. The second time, you won't be watching for the story. You'll be watching for the small things you missed: a hesitation, a glance, a change in how a body carries itself. That second watch is where it gets you. I said I have watched it more times than I'll admit. That is the honest reason. It doesn't wear out. It gets deeper. THE CHALLENGE I want to try something with this post. If the video moved you, leave one comment: the second it happened. Not a review, not an analysis. Just the moment. I'm curious whether it's the same one for everyone. My guess is that it isn't, and that the spread of answers will say more about what people carry around with them than about the video. If it didn't move you, that is fine too. I'd like to hear that as well. Honest is better than polite. And if you have ever been the one who stopped, and I know some of you have, write that instead. Tell the story in two lines. No one has ever regretted the ninety seconds. Someone reading this thread might need to know that. Reposting this is the simplest way to put it in front of someone who's scrolling right now, in a bad week, thinking that nothing good happens by accident anymore. Something did. THE LAST THING Let me end where I started. A dog made a decision on an empty road. It could not have known how it would turn out. It had no reason to believe that the next hand would be different from the last. It went ahead anyway. That is the whole difference between a life that changes and one that doesn't. Not certainty. Not a plan. A willingness to move toward the unknown when the alternative is more of the same. The animal in this video did that. Then someone did the same in return. That's it. That's the entire story. Two beings, each of whom took a small, terrifying step toward the other, and a road that was, for a few seconds, the most important place in the world. Scroll up. Press play. Watch the ending. Then come back and tell me I was exaggerating. P.S. If you read all of this, you are exactly the kind of person this video was made for. Most people never make it past the first screen of a long post. You did. That tells me you are someone who stays: through the slow part, through the uncertain part, all the way to the end. Which is, when you think about it, the only quality that mattered in the story you're about to watch. Follow for more like this. I only post the ones that earn it. Bookmark it for days you forget the feeling. #Rescue #DogsOfX #SecondChances #AdoptDontShop #Dogs #AnimalRescue #RescueDog

*** Test Your 9/11 Knowledge: The Explosive Evidence at the 3 WTC Towers The 50 Questions NIST Should Have Asked 20 Years Ago! WTC Building 7 Free-fall 1. How is it possible that 47-story Building 7 fell suddenly, symmetrically in free-fall acceleration, without any resistance from any of its 81 columns? 2. Why did NIST deny its free-fall for 7 years, only to be proven wrong and be forced to officially admit that it did collapse in free-fall? Symmetry 3. How, if Building 7 was damaged asymmetrically in the north-east corner on floor twelve, as per the NIST report, could it fall symmetrically downward? Shouldn’t the building have tilted toward its damaged side – and not fall straight down through the path of what was the greatest resistance? Fires 4. How could a few, small, and scattered ordinary office fires have brought this Type-1 fire-protected steel-frame skyscraper down, when several dozen examples of much hotter, much larger, and longer-lasting fires have never in history brought down such a building? 5. How could normal office fires take out all the columns in the building sequentially floor by floor, in 7 seconds? 6. Why did NIST claim that the fires were still burning, up until the time of the collapse, when the photos show that they were burnt out more than an hour before the collapse? 7. Why aren’t all the firefighters concerned, in the wake of the NIST report during the last 24 years, that such ordinary fightable fires can now bring skyscrapers down on top of them, and on top of the public who are told to “defend in place” in the building (and not obstruct access by firefighters)? 8. Why are many of these same firefighters calling for a new investigation of the NIST report itself? Controlled Demolition 9. Since the collapse of Building 7 looks exactly like a controlled demolition, why did NIST avoid any serious consideration of this hypothesis? 10. How could a 40,000-ton moment-resisting and X-braced structural steel frame collapse like a house of cards in 7 seconds, with most of its columns and beams severed – one from another? 11. Why does WTC 7 have all of the key features of typical controlled demolition, and none of the features of collapse by fire? Explosions 12. Why didn’t NIST include in its report on WTC 7 the half-dozen witnesses of explosions prior to its collapse, and even claim that there were no witnesses? 13. What could have caused an elevator cab to be “blown 30 feet out of its hoistway,” as Deputy Director of NY-Office of Emergency Management, Richard Rotanz, reported at Noon, when the building didn’t collapse for another 5 hours. 14. What caused Barry Jennings and Michael Hess to be injured by explosions and subsequently trapped in the building before either Twin Tower collapsed? Foreknowledge 15. Why did Fire Chief Nick Visconti declare, “We’re moving the command post over this way, that building’s coming down!”? 16. How could Fire Chief Hayden’s engineer declare, upon being asked, “how long until the building comes down?” – then accurately state, “In its current state you have about 5 hours,” when no steel-frame fire-protected high-rise had ever come down due to fire alone? 17. Why did construction workers, while walking away from Building 7 and upon hearing an explosion from the building, look straight into the CNN camera saying, “You hear that? Keep your eye on that building. That thing’s coming down. The building is about to blow up, flame and debris coming down”? 18. Why did former Air Force medic Kevin McPadden hear a “3-2-1” countdown on the radio, and subsequently hear explosions before Building 7 collapsed? 19. How could the BBC have announced, live on TV, the collapse of WTC 7 20 minutes before it collapsed? 20. Why did CNN announce, 7 hours early, the 10:45 AM collapse of a 50-story building (obviously referring to Building 7)? Expert Statements 21. Why have more than 3,600 Architects & Engineers signed onto the petition at demanding a new 9/11 WTC investigation? 22. Why are dozens of structural engineers making statements such as: “A localized failure in a steel-framed building like WTC 7 cannot cause a catastrophic collapse like a house of cards, without a simultaneous and patterned loss of several of its columns at key locations within the building”? 23. Why did the top European controlled demolition expert declare: “That is controlled demolition. It’s been imploded. It’s a hired job. A team of experts did this? 24. Why did top forensic structural engineer, Prof. Leroy Hulsey from the University of Alaska, following a 4-year study of WTC 7, declare: “The collapse of WTC 7 was a global failure involving the near-simultaneous failure of all columns in the building and not a progressive collapse, as claimed by NIST. Extreme Heat Molten Metal 25. What does it mean that FEMA, in its 2002 Report, including a metallurgical examination of the WTC 7 steel, revealed “a phenomenon never before observed in building fires….a liquid eutectic mixture containing primarily iron, oxygen, and sulfur formed during this hot corrosion attack on the steel...” Why did NIST eliminate this metallurgical report from their final report? 26. Did Fire Protection Engineer Jonathan Barnett know, when he said, “steel members in the debris pile that appear to have been partly evaporated,” that it takes 4,000°F to evaporate steel? And that jet fuel and office fires don’t even rise to a third of that temperature? 27. Why is there bright yellow molten steel or iron pouring out of the crab claw excavators in the WTC pit? And out of the South Tower just minutes before its collapse. 28. Why did the first responders in the pit report, “you get down in the pile, and you see molten steel – flowing down the channel rails, like lava from a volcano”? Did they know that it takes 3,000°F to melt steel, and that office fires and jet fuel can only achieve half of this temperature? 29. What can explain the well-documented 3,000°F temperatures that are well-documented in the WTC Twin Towers collapse aftermath? Why is there evidence of ignited thermite found by so many first responders in the WTC pile? Previously Molten Iron Microspheres 30. What does it mean that the US Geological Survey and RJ Lee Group independently documented billions of previously molten iron-rich microspheres in ALL of the WTC dust samples? Where would the required 3,000°F come from? Could the ignited thermite have created those molten iron microspheres? 31. Why is bright yellow molten steel or iron pouring out of the South Tower just minutes prior to its collapse? 32. What explains the 2009 peer-reviewed findings from the Niels Harrit research team of dual-layered red-gray chips of nano-thermite in all the independently-collected dust samples they analyzed? Why do they ignite at the same temperature as military grade “super-thermite”? Why do they produce molten iron-rich microspheres when ignited? 33. What does it mean that Harrit’s international research team found that the “red layer of the red/gray chips in all of their WTC dust samples is active unreacted thermitic material, incorporating nanotechnology, and is a highly energetic pyrotechnic or explosive material”? The Twin Towers Official Explanation 34. How can the official explanation of the Twin Towers’ collapse be true (that an intact top section drove down the rest of the building after weakening of some of the structural steel in the impact zone) when this top section had already been destroyed in the first 3 seconds of the collapse (telescoping in on itself) and so was not even available to drive anything down to the ground? NIST claims that the top part of the building drove the rest of the building down to the ground. Why then do none of the photos or videos show such a top part driving anything down? And why didn’t that top “pile driver” drive down the 800-foot-tall group of columns standing for 6 seconds after the overall collapse? 35. Why did Zdenek Bazant, in his calculations for his controversial paper submitted to the Journal of Engineering Mechanics on 9/13/01( only two days after 9/11) use twice the actual mass of the upper section of the North Tower above the impact floors and only one third of the actual column strength of the larger building section beneath it in his support for NIST collapse theory? a. Why is this paper still today the key theoretical basis of NIST’s column failure theory? 36. Why does the destruction of the towers look more like a volcanic eruption (than a straight-down gravitational collapse) with upward and outward arching streamers, a geometry of fireworks, freely flying solid molten objects trailing thick white smoke clouds? Witnesses of Explosions 37. Why are there 156 First Responder witnesses of explosions – seeing, hearing, and feeling explosions – many of them BEFORE the towers ever came down? 38. Why did NIST claim that there were “no witnesses of explosions” when there were as many as 200 publicly recorded testimonies – many before the collapse? What could explain Fire Chief Frank Cruthers’ testimony that, “… an explosion… appeared at the very top, simultaneously from all four sides, materials shot out horizontally. And then there seemed to be a momentary delay, before you could see the beginning of the collapse”? 39. Why did 36 reporters on the day of 9/11 report the WTC destruction as an explosion-based event, most of them actual witnesses of explosions? a. Why did the mainstream national media change the story the next day from explosion-based collapses to “fire-induced collapses”? 40. Why did the FBI, NYPD, and FDNY on the day of 9/11 all state that they suspected that explosives were used to bring down the towers, but change their story in the following week to fire-induced collapse? Seismic Evidence 41. Why did the Richter Scale recordings from Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory document significant seismic events for both towers, more than a dozen seconds before the planes hit either tower – corroborating the explosive testimony of William Rodriguez and others of massive explosions in the basement prior to the plane hitting the buildings? 42. Why did the seismic evidence from Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory document significant seismic events, in the North Tower, 5 seconds before the heaviest debris from each tower struck the ground? And in the South Tower, 7 seconds before any debris struck the ground? Wouldn’t this seismic evidence corroborate the testimony of the first responders that saw, heard, and/or felt explosions before the towers fell? 43. Why did at least 3 of the tripod-mounted cameras (two on the ground and one on the rooftop) “shake” 3 to 10 seconds before each of the towers fell? Would the camera evidence corroborate the seismic evidence and the first responder's explosive testimony? Explosive Evidence 44. Since the damage from the planes and fires was so asymmetrical, why was the destruction itself so precisely symmetrical – all the way down each face of each tower? Why do the videos show precise rows of individual explosions progressing down the towers – floor by floor? 45. Why do we see in the videos isolated pin-point explosive ejections occurring 20, 40, and even 60 stories down below the downward-traveling zone of destruction in each tower? Descent Profile and Speed 46. Why did the top sections of each tower descend suddenly, smoothly, down with no stoppage or “jolt” upon impact with the cold, hard, intact steel columns below the floors of the plane impacts? 47. How was it possible that the top section of each Tower descended without slowing at all, but instead accelerated, as if 80,000 tons of steel beneath wasn’t even there? What happened to the steel? Lateral Ejection of Steel 48. Why do we see in the videos the lateral ejection out of both of the Towers of hundreds of freely flying structural steel sections each weighing 4 to 8 tons, at 80mph, landing up to 600 feet in every direction, impaling all of the surrounding skyscrapers? Why are they trailing thick white smoke clouds when steel is not flammable in office fires, or under jet fuel conditions? Could this be due to the other byproduct of thermite – aluminum oxide ash? 49. Since FEMA officially documented a 1200-foot diameter zone of flying, fallen, and impaled structural steel beyond the footprints of both Towers, how could that steel, which comprised 1/3 of the weight of the falling section of each building, have still been available to crush the lower part as NIST claimed? Missing Floors 50. Since there were 110 concrete floors, each an acre in size, and since they were not stacked up in pile of “pancakes” at the bottom, and since a third of the WTC dust in the 3” thick blanket across Lower Manhattan from river to river is powdered concrete, then how could the concrete floors (also 1/3 of the weight of each Tower) be available to crush the building below? 51. What extreme-high temperature could have reduced 90,000 tons of concrete in each Tower back to its original aggregate, sand, and cement powder? Demolition Access 52. How could the perpetrators have gained access to the Towers to plant high energy explosives and incendiaries? Could a massive fireproofing upgrade project in the months and years prior to 9/11 have provided access to the underside of the floor systems to apply sprayed-on nano-thermite? Is it a coincidence that the WTC fireproofing upgrades occurred mostly on the floors that were hit by the planes on 9/11? Could the largest elevator modernization in the world in the 9 months prior to 9/11 have provided access to the core columns and beams? Is it just a coincidence that Ace Elevator employees were pulled out of the Towers on 9/11 for “union meeting”? Destruction of Evidence 53. Why was 99% of the WTC structural steel crime scene evidence loaded onto barges starting just 2 weeks after 9/11 and shipped to China for recycling before structural engineers and metallurgists could get their hands on it to do a proper forensic investigation? We encougage you to ask these questions of your elected representatives and the media. We address most of these questions in our presentations and podcast and radio interviews. So get is in front of them! Who do you know that might interview RichardGage911 about the explosive destruction of the 3 World Trade Center Skyscrapers on 9/11?

Как обнаружили ВЧК-ОГПУ и казахстанский миллиардер, «дорогой друг» Рамзана Кадырова и зять секретаря ОДКБ Кенес Ракишев оказался участником сомнительной схемы на миллиарды долларов с акциями на фондовой бирже NASDAQ. Такие данные содержатся в письмах информатора Комиссии по ценным бумагам США (SEC) Криса Дилорио, которые опубликованы в архивах Эпштейна. В документах упоминаются также почетный консул Казахстана в США Эммануил Гриншпун, фигурант уголовных дел Snoras и Latvijas Krājbanka Владимир Антонов, «глава русской мафии» Семен Могилевич, сам Эпштейн. Кристофер Дилорио (Christopher DiIorio) — профессиональный аналитик, институциональный трейдер, ветеран Уолл-стрит. В 2006 году он потерял около $1 млн на инвестициях в компанию E Mobile. Он начал собственное расследование и обнаружил системную схему манипуляций. Дилорио стал информатором Комиссии по ценным бумагам и биржам США (SEC), при этом он публично обвинял SEC в крышевании крупной сети по отмыванию денег, в которую вовлечены финансовые круги, бизнес, политические деятели и международные преступники. В числе участников мошеннических схем Дилорио называет российские Яндекс, QIWI, PayOnline, а также NetElement (NetE) казахстанского миллиардера Кенеса Ракишева (PayOnline входит в NetE). Именно через эту структуру, считает Дилорио, перекачивались и отмывались средства, связанные с Кенесом Ракишевым и рядом компаний. Дилорио в письме от июля 2020 года сообщает, что подал два официальных сообщения в Офис по работе с информаторами SEC по делу о отмывании денег / транзакционном отмывании «о мошенничестве, известном как Net Element». В частности, речь шла о фирмах-пустышках, которые не имели реальных активов и вели деятельность в основном на бумаге, а их акции были «накачаны воздухом». Участники схемы сначала продавали акции, которых у них в реальности нет, а затем избавлялись от этой проблемы за счет выпуска огромного количества новых, почти бесплатных акций той же компании-пустышки. Эти акции используются, чтобы задним числом «закрыть» незаконные продажи. Таким образом огромные обороты на рынке создаются не из-за роста бизнеса, а через подобные махинации с акциями. Для теневых схем, отмывания денег и создания «черных касс» используется также рынок внебиржевых акций (OTC, что-то вроде доски объявлений для акций с крайне слабым контролем). Net Element Кенесе Ракишева утверждала, что является платежным процессором и ежегодно обрабатывает транзакции на миллиарды долларов. В СМИ ее называли гордостью страны — она была первой в Казахстане фирмой, вышедшей на IPO на бирже NASDAQ. Занималась NetElement предоставлением в США платежных услуг для мелкого и среднего бизнеса с использованием блокчейн-технологий. У NetE также было собственное облачное решение Aptito, которое внедрялось в розничых торговых точках и заведениях общепита. В 2017 году фирму несколько раз признавали одной из самых быстрорастущих компаний в Северной Америке. Внешне у NetE все было отлично, однако в 2020 году Ракишев почему-то продал вроде бы успешный бизнес некоему разработчику электроавтомобилей Mullen Technologies, Inc. В рамках обратного слияния акционеры Mullen получили большинство находящихся в обращении акций NetE, а Кенес Ракишев стал владельцем пакета акций в Mullen. В письмах Дилорио есть объяснение факту продажи и обратному сплиту: он был нужен для того, чтобы укрупнить акции и цена каждой не упала ниже 1 доллара - тогда компания вылетела бы с биржи. В результате NetE влился в Mullen, последний стал стал акционерной компанией и получил доступ к бирже. «Такая мошенническая сделка — обычное дело в мире «компаний-пустышек» для отмывания денег», - подчеркнул Дилорио. Дочернюю фирму PayOnline он связывал с масштабным мошенничеством Wirecard, которая предоставляла услуги по эквайрингу карточных платежей для компаний электронной коммерции и финтех-сектора. Wirecard рухнула в 2020, когда аналитики KPMG подтвердили публикации СМИ о подозрительной деятельности компании и ее манипуляциях с отчетностью. После этого компания заявила о пропаже 1,9 млрд евро и намерении подать иск о банкротстве, а ее основатель Маркус Браун был арестован. При этом KPMG так и не смогли разобраться в деятельности фирмы — была ли она реальной, или существовала только на бумаге. Многочисленные «дочки» Wirecard находились в «цифровых офшорах» - ОАЭ, Ирландии, Сингапуре, где открыть бизнес можно через посредников, а отчетность сложно проверить. Подозрения Дилорио о «липовой» деятельности NetE Ракишева полностью подтвердилась: летом прошлого года Mullen был переименован в Bollinger Innovations, Inc., в октябре получил уведомление биржи о приостановке торгов его акциями из-за падения цены ниже 1 доллара за штуку, в конце 2025 года его подразделение - «производитель» электрических грузовиков Bollinger Motors - закрылось, сейчас бумаги компании называют кризисными и они торгуются за копейки только на внебиржевом рынке. На самом деле, как и предупреждал Дилорио, Mullen Ракишева вовсе не производил электроавтомобили в США: машины выпускал китайский Qiantu, а Mullen просто продавал их. То есть фирма была нужна как оболочка для доступа к торговле акциями на бирже. Интересно, что аналитическая фирма SeeThroughEquity, которая публиковала «независимые отчеты» по акциям малых компаний и в том числе Net Element Кенеса Ракишева, в 2022 году была обвинена в мошенничестве с анализом акций. Оказалось, что компания принимала «гонорары» за положительное освещение акций в отчетах, а ее владельцы сами торговали этими акциями и использовали отчеты для обвала или повышения цен. Суд выписал владельцам штраф более полумиллиона долларов и закрыл им доступ к биржевому рынку на 5 лет. Должность гендиректора и председателя совета директоров ракишевский NetE с 2013 по 2021 гг занимал Олег Фирер - сын эмигрантов из СССР, выросший в США, экс-посол Гренады в РФ (с 2024 г он работает в «ADG Legal», базирующейся в Дубае — основатель фирмы Питер Грей является партнером Росконгресса). У Фирера была своя компания «Acies Corporation», однако в 2013 году американская Комиссия по ценным бумагам отозвала с биржи акции Фирера за нарушения, а компания была ликвидирована. Дилорио прямо называл эту фирму «подставной». Напомним, что Кенес Ракишев часто тасует свои активы, как колоду карт - покупает и продает компании, меняет доли своего участия в них и тд. Так, в прошлом году он зарегистрировал новую фирму Fincraft Energy Holding Limited, а перед этим продал акции угольной компании «Шубаркуль премиум» (купил в 2024 году), украинского БТА банка, нефтяной ARK Petroleum (купил в 2023 году), Nomad west oil («купил в 2023 году) и тд. Но подобные махинации с акциями «пустышек» были бы невозможно без помощи брокеров - посредников на бирже. В качестве крупнейшего из них Дилорио называет Knight Capital (KCG, биржевой тикер - NITE). В 2017 году компания была поглощена Virtu Financial и продолжила деятельность. В 2020 году саморегулируемая организация брокеров FINRA подала жалобу против NITE, заявив, что фирма неверно указывала коды типов счетов в 1,5 млрд транзакций, давала липовые данные брокеров, от которых поступали заявки и маскировала конечных бенефициаров, которым шли платежи. Нарушения стоили NITE штрафа в 120 тыс. долларов - сущие копейки для компании такого масштаба. Дилорио прямо называет NITE преступной структурой по отмыванию средств. Второй узловой элемент системы мошенничества — UBS Securities, инвестиционно-банковское подразделение и брокерская фирма швейцарского финансового гиганта UBS Group AG, заявил Дилорио. Что касается российских компаний, акции которых не торговались напрямую на американской бирже, то с их депозитарными расписками проворачивали «зеркальные сделки» — когда один и тот же актив покупается и продается одновременно через несколько рынков или компаний‑пустышек для того, чтобы скрыть источник или объем сделки. Одним из авторов этой схемы информатор считает Майкла Милкена - основателя рынка «мусорных облигаций», осужденного за аферы со средствами сотен тысяч людей. Милкен получил реальный срок, но в 2020 году Трамп его помиловал. Вся эта схема обслуживает крупнейших клиентов, в числе которых был и Эпштейн. Известно, что Эпштейн получил как минимум $158 млн за некие налоговые консультации от соучредителя Apollo Леона Блэка, а сам Блэк в 2011 году встречался с Владимиром Путиным один на один в российском Сочи. Официально было объявлено, что речь шла об участии Apollo в проектах Российского фонда прямых инвестиций. As discovered by the Cheka-OGPU and Kazakhstani billionaire, "dear friend" of Ramzan Kadyrov, and son-in-law of the CSTO Secretary, Kenes Rakishev, was involved in a dubious scheme involving multi-billion-dollar shares on the NASDAQ stock exchange. This information is contained in emails from US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) whistleblower Chris DiIorio, which were published in Epstein's archives. The documents also mention the Honorary Consul of Kazakhstan in the United States, Emmanuel Grinshpun; Vladimir Antonov, a defendant in the Snoras and Latvijas Krājbanka criminal cases; Semyon Mogilevich, the "head of the Russian mafia"; and Epstein himself. Christopher DiIorio is a professional analyst, institutional trader, and Wall Street veteran. In 2006, he lost approximately $1 million investing in E Mobile. He launched his own investigation and uncovered a systematic manipulation scheme. DiLorio became a whistleblower for the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), publicly accusing the SEC of protecting a massive money laundering ring involving financial interests, businesses, political figures, and international criminals. DiLorio names Russian companies Yandex, QIWI, PayOnline, and NetElement (NetE), owned by Kazakhstani billionaire Kenges Rakishev (PayOnline is part of NetE), as participants in the fraudulent schemes. DiLorio believes it was through this structure that funds associated with Kenges Rakishev and several companies were siphoned and laundered. In a July 2020 letter, DiLorio reports that he filed two official reports with the SEC's Whistleblower Office regarding money laundering/transactional laundering "concerning a fraud known as Net Element." Specifically, the discussion centered on shell companies that had no real assets and operated primarily on paper, with their shares "inflated with air." The participants in the scheme first sold shares they didn't actually own, and then resolved the issue by issuing a huge number of new, virtually free shares of the same shell company. These shares are used to retroactively "cover" the illegal sales. Thus, huge market turnover is generated not by business growth, but through such stock manipulations. The over-the-counter (OTC) market (a sort of bulletin board for stocks with extremely weak oversight) is also used for shady schemes, money laundering, and the creation of "black cash desks." Net Element, owned by Kenesa Rakisheva, claimed to be a payment processor and processed billions of dollars in transactions annually. The media called it the pride of the country—it was the first company in Kazakhstan to go public on the NASDAQ exchange. NetElement provided payment services for small and medium-sized businesses in the US using blockchain technology. NetE also had its own cloud solution, Aptito, which was implemented in retail outlets and food service establishments. In 2017, the company was repeatedly recognized as one of the fastest-growing companies in North America. NetE appeared to be doing well, but in 2020, Rakishev, for some unknown reason, sold the seemingly successful business to an electric vehicle developer, Mullen Technologies, Inc. As part of the reverse merger, Mullen shareholders received the majority of NetE's outstanding shares, and Kenes Rakishev became the owner of a stake in Mullen. DiLorio's emails explain the sale and the reverse split: it was necessary to consolidate the shares and prevent the price of each share from falling below $1, which would have delisted the company. As a result, NetE merged with Mullen, which became a public company and gained access to the stock exchange. "Such a fraudulent transaction is commonplace in the world of shell companies used for money laundering," DiLorio emphasized. He linked the PayOnline subsidiary to the large-scale fraud perpetrated by Wirecard, which provided card payment acquiring services to e-commerce and fintech companies. Wirecard collapsed in 2020 after KPMG analysts confirmed media reports of the company's suspicious activity and financial reporting fraud. The company subsequently announced the disappearance of €1.9 billion and its intention to file for bankruptcy, and its founder, Markus Braun, was arrested. KPMG, however, was unable to determine whether the company was real or existed only on paper. Wirecard's numerous subsidiaries were located in "digital offshore" jurisdictions such as the UAE, Ireland, and Singapore, where businesses can be established through intermediaries and financial reporting is difficult to verify. DiLorio's suspicions about Rakishev's NetE "sham" activities were fully confirmed: last summer, Mullen was renamed Bollinger Innovations, Inc., in October it received a notice from the stock exchange to suspend trading due to the price falling below $1 per share, and at the end of 2025, its division—the "manufacturer" of electric trucks, Bollinger Motors—closed. The company's shares are now being called "crisis-like" and are trading for pennies only on the over-the-counter market. In fact, as DiLorio warned, Rakishev's Mullen is not a manufacturer at all Mullen sold electric cars in the US: the cars were manufactured by the Chinese company Qiantu, and Mullen simply sold them. In other words, the company was needed as a front for access to stock trading on the stock exchange. Interestingly, the research firm SeeThroughEquity, which published "independent reports" on small company stocks, including Kenes Rakishev's Net Element, was accused of stock research fraud in 2022. It turned out that the company accepted "fees" for positive coverage of the stocks in reports, while its owners traded these stocks themselves and used the reports to either drive prices up or down. The court fined the owners over half a million dollars and banned them from the stock market for five years. Oleg Firer, the son of Soviet immigrants who grew up in the US and former Ambassador of Grenada to Russia, served as CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Rakishev's NetE from 2013 to 2021. (Since 2024, he has worked at ADG Legal, based in Dubai. The firm's founder, Peter Gray, is a partner at Roscongress.) Firer owned his own company, Acies Corporation, but in 2013, the US Securities and Exchange Commission delisted Firer's shares from the stock exchange for violations, and the company was liquidated. DiLorio openly called this company a "front." As a reminder, Kenes Rakishev often shuffles his assets like a deck of cards – buying and selling companies, changing his stakes in them, etc. Last year, he registered a new company, Fincraft Energy Holding Limited, and before that, he sold shares in the coal company Shubarkul Premium (purchased in 2024), the Ukrainian BTA Bank, the oil company ARK Petroleum (purchased in 2023), Nomad West Oil (purchased in 2023), and so on. However, such manipulations with shell stocks would have been impossible without the help of brokers – intermediaries on the exchange. DiLorio names Knight Capital (KCG, ticker – NITE) as the largest of these. In 2017, the company was acquired by Virtu Financial and continued operating. In 2020, FINRA, a self-regulatory organization for brokers, filed a complaint against NITE, alleging that the firm misrepresented account type codes for 1.5 billion transactions, provided false broker information about the originators of the orders, and disguised the ultimate beneficiaries of the payments. The violations cost NITE a $120,000 fine—a pittance for a company of its size. DiLorio directly calls NITE a criminal money-laundering organization. The second key element of the fraudulent system is UBS Securities, the investment banking arm and brokerage firm of the Swiss financial giant UBS Group AG, DiLorio said. As for Russian companies whose shares were not directly traded on the American exchange, their depositary receipts were used in "mirror trades"—when the same asset is bought and sold simultaneously through multiple markets or shell companies to conceal the source or volume of the transaction. The whistleblower believes that one of the architects of this scheme is Michael Milken, the founder of the junk bond market, who was convicted of defrauding hundreds of thousands of people. Milken received a prison sentence, but was pardoned by Trump in 2020. This entire scheme serves major clients, including Epstein. Epstein is known to have received at least $158 million for tax consulting from Apollo co-founder Leon Black, and Black himself met privately with Vladimir Putin in Sochi, Russia, in 2011. Officially, the discussion centered on Apollo's involvement in projects run by the Russian Direct Investment Fund.
