💥An Israeli ship not carrying military materials has been blocked in the port of Livorno, Italy. This is the first time: until now, protests in Italian ports had only been organized when weapons were involved. Dockworkers in this traditionally left-leaning town, supported by grassroots unions, staged a protest at the entrance of the port basin to block the Israeli shipping company Zim from docking. “No unloading, loading, or storage operations will be carried out,” the dockworkers declared, adding they would launch a targeted strike against ships linked to Israel’s economy if docking permission is granted. Another Zim ship is expected to arrive in Livorno on Thursday. Although the port authority formally grants docking permission, a ship cannot operate without the help of dockworkers. Permission has been withheld so far due to the protests. Over the past two years, Italian ports have already witnessed acts of civil disobedience blocking weapons shipments to Israel. This, however, is the first time a non-military cargo ship has been targeted.

When seasonal stories were first brought into Call of Duty they would add to the universe. Maybe they would add a character. Maybe they would show off the next location of DLC. Or maybe there would be bread crumbs to what happens next. This is the ending cutscene for Black Ops 7 Season 1. It adds nothing to the story, it just restates that Dorn has mason. Could you of guessed that the good guys were going to go after him? Why waste time or money on a cutscene that just states the obvious. There is so much they could do with this story. Ties back to his father Alex. looking into David masons kids, Savana and Jessica. But nope. I believe that for a live service games evolving story is essential to keep the lore and story of a universe feeling alive. Modern warfare 2019 and Cold War did an amazing job with this. Now it just feels like Call of Duty season story is just to say "Hey look we are still here." Maybe it is because we really haven't had a decent campaign since MWII. But if you take shit and try to make it into something great at the end of the day it's still shit. Ted Talk Over

Bro says "They had more than enough time", but then proceeds to completely disregard that by saying everyone complaining about this is ignorant. If someone came into my restaurant and ordered a steak plate and said "This steak tastes like shit" I'm supposed to tell them to learn how to cook and to go make it themselves ands then come back to me? Wtf is this retarded as argument? I don't need to be an animator to know that what I am seeing with my own 2 eyeballs is fucking dogshit. Also bro says the entire video that JC Staff is a "minor amateur studio", bitch what? lmaoooo! They have made some of the best Anime. Golden Time, Food Wars, Toradora, Magical Index, DANMACHI?! So he shits on them saying they're amateur and then the next minute he says that we should feel bad for them because we're not animators and then says they had more than enough time...HUH? The mental gymnastics that these fans go through to try and defend this slop is ridiculous. If you were a real fan than you would be FUMING over how bad one of the biggest Shonen IP's in the world looks. What an IGNORANT mfer.

CHARLIE KIRK MICROPHONE UPDATE: Candace Owens addressed the wireless mic that Charlie was using and how it was a newer feature on Charlie's tour. Charlie was wearing a Rode Wireless PRO, which comes standard with a lapel magnet, 2 storage cases/computer docks, 32-bit sound, and internal device recording & storage. FUNCTIONS: ▪️With the Wireless PRO model, it begins recording the moment it's removed from the case/docking station. ▪️Once the mic is removed from the case & recording, it can only be turned off remotely—neither Charlie nor the security team could have turned it off. It communicates with the computer-connected receiver assembly on a 2.4 GHz digital transmission link with a range of 850 feet at most. Beyond that, Philip Goldsberry would not have had the capability to turn it off, either. Which means it should/could have recorded indefinitely, because Philip fled and didn't return to the scene until after Charlie was driven away. Alternatively, it can be turned off using the app + bluetooth, but Philip Goldsberry would have had to be in bluetooth range. But he wasn't. ▪️All audio was captured, recorded & stored on the mic itself. The 32-bit sound captures quiet whispers, loud shouts & everything in between. Implications: Unless that microphone was destroyed, it was recording everything—including the trip to the hospital and even after that. TPUSA and/or Philip Goldsberry should have ALL of the audio. Where is that mic? Where are the audio files? What audio did it pick up? Shouldn't TPUSA provide that audio feed? Why haven't we heard anything about this AT ALL from TPUSA? Surely someone has listened to that recording, right? RIGHT?

.delian says Varda Space will ultimately build the first industrial city in orbit. He breaks down how they'll get there: "We want to build the first industrial city in low-Earth orbit. But we're taking it one step at a time. Building out the business, getting great unit economics, proving out one use case at a time." "Generation 1 of what we're building is this two-part spacecraft — satellite and pod. The satellite has all the process equipment. The pod just has the finished good. When we're done, the pod survives, but all that process equipment and everything on board burns up." "Generation 2 will be flying in 2029. Think of it as that heat shield material just envelops everything. So now the satellite plus the pod both survive. That'll probably look like a mini space plane." "By the end of the decade, we'll start to invest into fixed pieces of infrastructure in orbit. Early on they'll probably just look like a satellite with a little docking port. Basically the space plane will come with the raw ingredients and it'll dock with that satellite up in orbit, and exchange them for the fabricated goods. But then we'll have like 10 of those satellites. We'll start to stitch them together, which basically looks like a station." "One day there'll be so many of those pieces of equipment on board that we'll be able to economically justify someone with a wrench to go fix some stuff up there. Once we can economically justify one person with a wrench, we can get ten, one hundred, a thousand."

Here is some interesting info about Potato Boxes from the realfarmerjeff Instagram Account: “When my friend sent me this graphic a few months ago I knew I needed to try it out. I already knew mounding potatoes was a common technique as well as growing potatoes in old tires. Logically, making a potato box seemed like a way to maximize that even more. Little did I know potato boxes are very controversial in the gardening world. Some people swear they don’t work and others say you just need the right conditions. From what I can tell, it should still be possible to harvest around 50 lbs of potatoes from a potato box but 100 lbs seems unrealistic. However this is also dependent on the choosing the right varieties. If I could go back in time I would have researched the varieties of potatoes I used beforehand more. For example I made the rookie mistake of getting Russet Norkotahs instead of Russet Burbanks. Maybe next year I will only use one proven variety instead of three like I have in this box. Additionally, it seems like 4-6 plants would be ideal to avoid overcrowding.” Credit: realfarmerjeff

How does the UK rejoin the EU? Have a listen to David Miliband on BBC Radio 4 Today: Anna Foster, "The front page of the Guardian this morning is talking about the government trying to pitch an EU single market for goods, which Brussels seems to not be particularly keen on. What is your position on the government's stance at the moment on Europe and how our ongoing relationship with Europe should look?" David Miliband, "Well, I'm convinced that the security and prosperity of the UK depends on an institutionalized, deep and strong relationship with the rest of Europe. I'm absolutely convinced of that. The Russian invasion of Ukraine shows the way in which that's our number one security threat now." David Miliband, "But, we know our economy has been shrunk by 6 to 8% in the 10 years since Brexit. So there's an economic part of that. So when the government says we want a reset of our relations with Europe, I think that's a good thing. But then when I look that the reset so far is only worth £9 billion by 2040 and I remember that Britain is a 3 trillion pound economy, I'm left saying, no, we need a much higher dosage in our reset." Anna Foster, "How high? I mean, do you advocate for rejoining the EU?" David Miliband, "Well, I'm somewhat bemused by some of the commentary. I want this strong institutional relationship with the European Union. But then I know the deal we had until 2016 is not available now. We're not going to be able to get that deal again." David Miliband, "I also know the European Union is changing profoundly. The big issue for Brussels today is not Britain joining, it's Ukraine joining and Ukraine joining the European Union is going to mean a different institutional set of arrangements inside Europe." David Miliband, "So just to give you an example, they're talking about associate membership for Ukraine, they're talking about different tiers of membership. So the question of what kind of docking are we going to do in with the European Union? It's the re part of rejoin that I think we have to understand." David Miliband, "The world is changing out there." Anna Foster, "So you're not necessarily against the concept, but what you're saying is it would never be the way it was and therefore you don't think it's the right thing." David Miliband, "For that reason, it literally can't be the way that it was. We're not in a position to, I mean, the European Union wouldn't entertain us flipping and flopping. What we have to do is build a national consensus about our position with the European Union. I'm very happy with it as a long term goal." David Miliband, "Think for this Parliament we should be really driving our economic, political and other relations. There's a big debate about defence spending going on. As we know it's affected the aid budget. There's something called the European Defence Mechanism, which is the proposal for a European backed 800 billion euro defence package that would support all European countries inside the European Union and outside." David Miliband, "We should be championing that. That would be us putting in for a mutual security funding arrangement that would help fund our own defence and European defence. Because the truth is our defence is Europe's defence and vice versa."

🐿 The reason I was so busy at Coachella wasn’t just because I was watching performances. Inside Coachella, I also went around meeting and talking with a lot of other artists. There were some I personally really like, and some that our members have liked for a long time too. So when I met them, I talked about how it would be fun to try this or that together later, like “Our member really likes this kind of thing, so it would be cool if the two of you did something together.” That’s why I walked around quite a bit. As for collaborations, personally I’m the type who thinks it should happen naturally. Rather than forcing a meeting, it’s better when our thoughts and directions match. I really enjoy doing ATEEZ activities with the members, so if the direction doesn’t feel right for a collab, it’s honestly hard for me. I think the other members feel the same way. Even if it’s an artist I admire and really like, if our visions don’t align after talking, it’s not easy to work together. That’s why I had a lot of those kinds of conversations. Also, since our group schedule is already so packed for the whole year, I believe that any time we expand our individual boundaries, it has to be meaningful for both them and me. So while I was there, I thought it would be better to meet people in person, talk directly, and connect, rather than just doing quick “tick-tick” stuff through the managers. That’s why I ended up walking around a lot just to talk to people.

251207 Hongjoong, TOKTOQ pop live, p.2-2: 🐿️ Honestly, after we renewed our contracts and the eight of us started going to award shows again, I kept having these thoughts. Today they said AAA is celebrating its 10th anniversary, and it made me think - rather than wishing that in 10 years we’ll still be performing and receiving awards, what I really hope for is that even then we’ll be a group ready to perform, and ATINY will be ready to happily enjoy our stage. If that’s the case, I couldn’t ask for anything more. 🐿️ I’m not crying (laughs) I’m not crying - but… yeah. That’s how I feel. 🐿 It’s been that way since I was young, it’s that way now, and I think it’ll still be that way even as I get older and gain more years in this career. The year-end award shows we attend - and the music shows too - they will never be something we can take for granted. They’ll never become something that just naturally happens. Because of that, I try to cherish those moments and do my best every time. 🐿 As for what I said on stage… the acceptance speeches… honestly, even if I prepare 100 times or 200 times, I can never say everything I want to. I regret it every time, especially with award speeches. I always think, ‘It would be nice if I could sound excited, or say something witty, or say something that really carries my feelings.’ But every time I come down, I wonder, ‘Did I only say really surface-level things?’ Even when I prepare a special sentence in my heart, once I go up there, it just doesn’t come out the way I hoped. 🐿️ Today there were so many winners, so it didn’t feel right to make the acceptance speeches too long. And when I received the award alone, I gave the speech - but honestly, I didn’t know I was going to receive that one at all. 🐿️ Really, every award show has its own way of announcing and presenting awards, but for AAA specifically, we truly don’t know anything until the moment we hear it. We don’t know when we’ll be called, we don’t know if we’ll get anything - we genuinely have no idea. So at first, when they said ‘ATEEZ,’ we all stood up together. And this time, we had planned that if we received a second award, I would give the acceptance speech. 🐿️ Ah - it was the third one, right? Yes, the third. So originally, Wooyoungie was supposed to speak, then I would do the next one, but Mingi said he had something he really wanted to say, so we decided Mingi should go first. And I said that if there was another chance later, I’d do it then. Thankfully, we did receive a third award. So when they said ‘ATEEZ,’ I had my words prepared - but then they said ‘ATEEZ’s Hongjoong,’ and my mind just went completely blank. And after that… well, I just did it.

Two cops played quick-draw with loaded guns. One pointed his gun at the other. The other drew his own gun from inside the patrol car. Then a round went through the windshield and hit the first officer in the shoulder. And somehow, the city called it “horseplay.” If a civilian did this, nobody would call it horseplay. They’d call it a negligent discharge, aggravated assault, or worse. But this is the double standard gun owners deal with every day. We’re constantly told civilians can’t be trusted with guns. We’re too emotional, too reckless, too untrained, too dangerous. We’re told to leave it to the “professionals.” Then two cops play around with loaded firearms and shoot each other. This doesn’t mean every cop is reckless. It means cops are people. Some train seriously. Some don’t. Some are responsible. Some aren’t. Just like civilians. But when one citizen does something stupid, politicians try to punish every law-abiding gun owner in America. When one cop does something stupid, nobody argues every cop should lose their Glock. That’s the inconsistency. So next time someone says “only cops should carry,” remember the windshield. Full video just released on my youtube channel Shop the America hat:

If you have a son or daughter who's starting to think that socialism is the answer to our problems, I want you to try something and report back: Next time you talk, don't argue. Sit down, ask these questions, and just listen: - When you say "socialism," do you mean that you want the government to pay for a bigger safety net like in Denmark, or that the government owns the means of production? Because those are two very different countries. - You say the system is rigged. Who rigged it? And who should be handed the power to un-rig it? - Who sets the price of bread? If not a single person or corporation, what causes that price to remain steady or go up? - Can you name a country where the state took ownership of the means of production and the poor got richer? - When borders open or the walls fall down, anywhere in the world, which direction do people run? Towards the free market system or the socialist system? And before the boundaries fell, which way were the guns pointed? - Would you rather be poor today, or rich in 1900? By the way, only one of those has antibiotics. - If you and I make a voluntary trade, and we both walk away happy, who got hurt? - Someone has to decide what your work is worth. Would you rather it be you and the person paying you, or a bureaucrat with an army who has never met either of you? Try having this conversation with your kids this week. Don't argue. Only listen. And if you want, call into my radio show and tell me how it went.

Today Lattice is synonymous with performance reviews and people management. But not many know that in the very early days, Jack Altman and @ekosz1 had a different product entirely — an OKR tool trying to solve the painful quarterly planning process. As we were developing First Round's PMF Method, we learned so much from Lattice’s pivot — grateful Jack took the time to share his lessons for other builders. 🙏 Here are a few takeaways that have stuck with me: Market pull can be confusing in the early days. Much of PMF advice contains some variation of a “you’ll know it when you see it” type of definition. But for Jack, there’s a key nuance here. “If you haven’t seen early market pull yourself before, you can get easily confused about what it looks like. People are telling you this looks cool, they're saying that they're excited about what's coming, so you think, ‘Okay, maybe we are onto something,’ and that can bleed on that path for quite a long time.” In retrospect, Jack points to 2 signs the OKR tool idea wasn’t working: 1) It was hard to get people to actually pull out their credit cards. “A lot of CEOs and people leaders said, ‘We'd really like this. Can we try it? Can we test it for a quarter? Can we do a monthly thing? Can you give me a login so I can poke around?’ But when we tried to get them to pay, it was very challenging.” 2) Even when people got into the product and did a full OKR planning cycle in Lattice, the next quarter didn't come easily. “They were like, ‘Ugh, we’ve got to do this.’ And then by the third quarter they were like, ‘This is not happening naturally.’ For the employees, the retention was just not there. So both sides were not strong enough.” After Lattice’s pivot (where they kept their HR buyer but changed the product), the difference in traction immediately felt clear. “We had people paying us annual upfront contracts without ever seeing a product, just on our design mocks — which couldn't be more different than the experience we’d been having with OKRs. There were leads coming organically from all over the place. I think we booked twice as much revenue in the first month on that product than we had booked in the previous year on the last one.” If you’re stuck, it takes big swings, not small changes. “A lot of people hang out in nascent PMF and make small changes for years, and that's just a literal waste of everybody's time and resources. Moving up levels of product-market fit or getting unstuck requires more than just incremental steps or giving it more time. More often than not, if you're working on something that is not getting great traction, you’re probably not a 10% adjustment away — you’re probably a 200% adjustment away.” The only people who have the answers are the buyers. “You should really be spending all of your time talking to customers. And that sounds so obvious. But people will find so many reasons to not do that. You’ll hear ‘I really should be recruiting,’ or ‘Some VC wanted to have coffee with me, maybe I'll learn from them about this market.’ And it's all a waste of time. The buyers are where the truth is. When you get to the point where you’ve talked to so many customers that you're sick of hearing the same thing over and over again, that's when you know, you've talked to enough. One of the things that always really helped me is I would remind people that it really doesn't help me if you're nice to me in this meeting. I'm trying to build a company that doesn't fail. And I can only do that if I get genuine responses from you.”

CBS’s Ed O'Keefe: “So, if you’re asking for more time to sort out negotiations with Iran —” President Trump: “I’m not asking you for more time.” O’Keefe: “— not me, in general —” Trump: “I’m not asking it for them.” O’Keefe: “— if you need more time — Trump: “No, it’s not more time. I’m just — I’m not asking anybody for more time.” O’Keefe: “— if you need more time, does that mean Americans should anticipate spending more on gasoline for the foreseeable future” Trump: “For a little while?” O’Keefe: “For how long?” Trump: “And you know what they get for that? You know what they get for that? Iran without a nuclear weapon that’s going to try and blow up one of our cities or blow up the entire Middle East. You want to see what shock would be. And I — I have to be honest.” O’Keefe: “You're going to [inaudible] your whole year —” Trump: “The stock market is at an all time high right now. I thought it would have been down 20, 25% when we hit.” O’Keefe: “You want to drive prices down this year?” Trump: “Wait a minute. Wait, can I finish my question, wise guy? Stock markets at an all time high right now. I projected, and I’m pretty good at this, that the stock market, Howard, would drop maybe 20% 25%. And I understood that. And I said, hey, it’s bad thing, but I have to do what’s right for the country, even the world, because you can’t have them. You cannot let them have a nuclear weapon. So, the stock market, unlike what a lot of people were predicting, I thought they weren’t necessarily wrong. The stock market today hit an all time high, hit an all time high yesterday, the day before, and it’s staying there. I thought oil would go up to maybe $200 a barrel. And oil is at a very a different number than anyone thought. In fact, this country is much lower because we have all the oil we can use. We’re — we’re actually ships are coming from all over the world to Texas, Louisiana and Alaska. They’re coming from all over the world to get oil from the United States — you know, while this is closed, the Hormuz Strait. So, if you look at what I said, I guess it was right because I said I’d have it 4 to 6 weeks. And in four weeks we have totally defeated their military.” O’Keefe: “But you —” Trump: “So, right now, I don’t want to rush it because you guys are, you know, trying to make us look as bad as possible.” O’Keefe: “— do you —” Trump: “I don’t want to rush it. I want to take my time. We have plenty of time and I want to get a great deal. I want to get a deal where our nation and the world is safe from lunatics with nuclear weapons.”

There may be mistakes, missing context, or different interpretations, so please read kindly and feel free to correct anything if anything is inaccurate 🤍 1. P'Tha explaining how actor pairings are formed : Regarding how actors are paired, honestly, it comes from many different sources. Sometimes it's us suggesting, "Let's try this person with that person." Other times, staff members, seniors, juniors, or even executives might say, "What about these two?" What we have to do is try because if we never let them meet, we won't know whether it works or not. So we bring them together, let them get to know each other, and then they tell us whether it feels right or not. This is also part of the casting process. We may initially think that this person would suit that person, or that these two would work well together but in the end, they still have to get to know each other and see for themselves whether they can really move forward together. Even if we've already chosen a pair, if it turns out to be the wrong choice, we can admit that it wasn't right and make a new decision. That happens from time to time. The way each pair comes together is different. There isn't just one formula. Most of the time, every couple's story is unique." 2. P'New on Perfect 10 liner cast and PerthSanta Pairing When the cast changes had to happen, During that period, everyone was discussing who would replace whom because we also needed to start filming soon. When the executives discussed it and suggested Santa, saying, "Should we try him? Let's do a fitting and see," I thought it was interesting. In the end, both Perth and Santa are kids I've known from the beginning, so when they got to work together, I wanted to support them and help them go even further. Perth had also been away for quite a while, so I was secretly very nervous, wondering, "Will this work? Will it not?" • PerthSanta Pairing At first, I honestly couldn't picture it. Santa had always been on the left side in his previous pairings, and when he worked with us, he was the leading guy. So I wondered whether it would work in this direction. But compared to Santa, Perth has a more masculine image and stronger "leading man" energy. So we decided to try casting them together. The adults (management) told that if it didn't work, then it didn't work.. there was no pressure that it had to happen. When they auditioned, we had them perform scenes where the characters were already in love and interacting as a couple. That's when I felt that they had something that really matched. Gun's character also has some emotional and dramatic moments, and Santa can already handle that. We'd seen him in "my only 12%", so I felt reassured. In the end, I was happy that both roles went to these two. 3. P'Tha who suggest Santa as Perth Pairing "At this point, we really have to give credit to P'Tha and P'X because they were the ones who chose the entire cast. Even in Perth's case, it was they who suggested Santa's name. Honestly, I was worried because it was right after Santa had just joined the company, you know? I definitely wouldn't have dared to suggest him myself because I was afraid fanclub would think I was trying to favor him. But P'Tha was the one who brought up his name, so I said, 'Alright, let's try the casting first.'"

Pioneers Build Up Society Good Example Global Pioneers, how are you doing? Today is Saturday. I feel very good. From yesterday, I started to change my routine. I don’t use my phone as often, because if we always use the phone, we cannot focus on our daily life. From the monk’s teaching about mindfulness, starting from the morning, I began to practice this, and I feel very good. When I wake up, I have more time. I do massage, clean my home—daily cleaning—do laundry, work out, practice yoga and meditation, and I also have time with my daughter. We go outside together. Actually, outside is very cold. The weather is around 20 degrees centigrade right now. It is about 6:20–6:30 in the evening, and you can see it is very beautiful outside. What I want to share with you is that it is very important to manage our daily life and our priorities. Right now, we really need to focus on our current life, not always put all our time on the phone. For me, before, I spent most of my time on the phone. I read a lot of information, I wrote a lot, and I answered many questions in the groups. But now, you may notice I didn’t post much these two days. This is not because I don’t care. It is because I am busy with my daily life and also spending family time with my daughter. And I think this is what we should pay attention for all pioneers as a good family member and society good example. Because for our GCV community and the Pi Network community, we have many pioneers—10 million, 20 million, 30 million, 40 million, 50 million, 60 million, even 70 million right now. Every pioneer has their own daily life. So how should we think about Pi Network and GCV? As I said before, GCV has already succeeded. But right now, what everyone is waiting for is the Pi Network full open success. How can we reach that? Actually, the infrastructure is ready. The technology is ready. GCV is ready. So what is next? I believe the Core Team is still working on compliance and regulation. That part is their responsibility. But for our community, what is most important is unity. Pioneers need to calm down and be patient. If you can participate in building GCV value or the ecosystem, that is very great. If you cannot, it is still okay. Please focus on your daily life and keep yourself healthy and positive. Being healthy, being happy, and having a good relationship with your family is very important. When your family supports you, they support you as a pioneer. And if you do very well as a good example in your family, maybe they will also join as pioneers. This is very important, because in this way we also get support from society to support Pi Network. Right now our goal is Pi Network success soon and long term safety. If you can, please try to repost our educational information and our activities. We have many activities. We have very good pioneers, great ambassadors, and special envoys from many countries. They are doing a very amazing job. Please take some time to repost. But you don’t need to spend a long time on your phone. Just read the important information. As I said, it is not good to read too much information, because some information is fake and can make you confused. You don’t need to read a lot. For example, you can read my articles, Mr. Jojo's articles, and also information from Ms. Lumari, Ms. Donny Padaja, and Mr. Jason Wong. I think 20 minutes every day is enough. Then spend 10 minutes to repost. If we can do this, we can reach full open very fast. Pioneers will become calm and settled. There will be less negative energy in our community. Our community should be dynamic and positive, and that positive energy can accelerate our progress toward fully OM. When that happens, investors will have confidence in us. Please remember, we must have a long-term vision. Pioneers are people should have a long-term vision. This is not just about going to exchange market selling Pi in the market. This is not our destination. This is only a bridge to our destination. Please remember that. Now, it is dinner time for me. I need to have my dinner, and I hope everyone is enjoying your weekend. Please pay attention to your health—do some workout, meditation, maybe yoga because they can motivate you have good energy. Keeping healthy is very important, because we will have financial freedom in the future. You must have a good body to enjoy it, and also good relationships and a happy family to truly enjoy life. So it is very important to focus on your current life. Thank you so much. Have a nice day. Doris Yin 🪷🪷🪷 Jan 31st 2026

Pioneers Build Up Society Good Example Global Pioneers, how are you doing? Today is Saturday. I feel very good. From yesterday, I started to change my routine. I don’t use my phone as often, because if we always use the phone, we cannot focus on our daily life. From the monk’s teaching about mindfulness, starting from the morning, I began to practice this, and I feel very good. When I wake up, I have more time. I do massage, clean my home—daily cleaning—do laundry, work out, practice yoga and meditation, and I also have time with my daughter. We go outside together. Actually, outside is very cold. The weather is around 20 degrees centigrade right now. It is about 6:20–6:30 in the evening, and you can see it is very beautiful outside. What I want to share with you is that it is very important to manage our daily life and our priorities. Right now, we really need to focus on our current life, not always put all our time on the phone. For me, before, I spent most of my time on the phone. I read a lot of information, I wrote a lot, and I answered many questions in the groups. But now, you may notice I didn’t post much these two days. This is not because I don’t care. It is because I am busy with my daily life and also spending family time with my daughter. And I think this is what we should pay attention for all pioneers as a good family member and society good example. Because for our GCV community and the Pi Network community, we have many pioneers—10 million, 20 million, 30 million, 40 million, 50 million, 60 million, even 70 million right now. Every pioneer has their own daily life. So how should we think about Pi Network and GCV? As I said before, GCV has already succeeded. But right now, what everyone is waiting for is the Pi Network full open success. How can we reach that? Actually, the infrastructure is ready. The technology is ready. GCV is ready. So what is next? I believe the Core Team is still working on compliance and regulation. That part is their responsibility. But for our community, what is most important is unity. Pioneers need to calm down and be patient. If you can participate in building GCV value or the ecosystem, that is very great. If you cannot, it is still okay.

■ Mark talked about his MT2 on Twitch •Q: MT2 when? ●Mark: all right. MT2.. my, originally i wanted to put it out this year, but i kind of want to take my time just prepping it a little bit more. so it probably won't happen this year. but i'm working on it. ●Mark: i'll probably put out a few singles this year just to put music out, put some songs out this year. and then we'll see next year maybe MT2. (can't wait to hear.) ●Mark: yeah, i mean, i was working on the album, working on the music like you guys saw on the vlog in between my breaks. but i just, i don't know, i feel like, every single time i'm working on a new album, it takes a while, right? it takes a while to work on the album. and i feel like, i always end up wanting to switch directions and like the vision for the album keeps getting changed along the way. i don't know if it's like the process. ●Mark: i got feel like back then when we were doing GOT7, it was like, this is the concept of the album and stuff like that. and we would either make songs along that story line or whatever it is. ●Mark: but working, you know, like independently you guys have so much freedom, it's like you want to try so many different things. i want it to be really good, to be really good. so gonna take my time to work on this next album for you guys. because i do want to tour after putting the album out, so i want it to be good for you guys. ●Mark: (when am i gonna drop my next single?) working on stuff right now, i'll probably drop a few singles this year. but as for the album, it might take a little bit longer. ------------- Mark-ya, please freely just go ahead and finish it according to your own direction, flow and plan. walking through this process with you is exactly what we need to truly prepare ourselves for MT02. since this album is where your soul and time are poured into, how could we expect to listen to it without long wait? we'll be ready and waiting, too. so please don't worry about a thing and do everything you want to do on your own flow and plan. we are always rooting for you, artist Mark Tuan. we are not looking for a quick release. we want to listen to your music that reflects your soul exactly as it is. it would absolutely take time. we are with you every step of the way. we are always right here by your side. please just stay true to what you believe in. to be honest.. you looked like you had a lot on your mind when i saw your face today.. so thank you for sharing your process so candidly. have a good dinner and get some good rest with your babies. love you. 🤍 Mark Tuan #MarkTuan #우리마크

September is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. This month serves as a dedicated time to raise awareness, remember those lost to suicide, and connect people with vital resources and treatment. Vince Welnick talking about his deep depression following the death of Jerry Garcia 🙏🏼✨🌹 Everyone has something happening that you might not be aware of. Our wish is to be more aware of these signs if or when possible. Sometimes we feel like there was not enough awareness of Mental illness back then and Vince wasn’t embraced or supported enough or at least he might have felt that way. I know lots of people that went to help him and got him back into playing. Vince lived in Sonoma County in the 90’s and Steve Kimock was one of those that reached out and helped him to start playing music again. Another reason why we love the Kimock Family! They came together and formed Missing Man Formation. It always felt like Vince was also hurt deeply when reunion shows would happen with surviving members of the Grateful Dead like the 2002 shows in Alpine but Vince was not invited to play. If only we all understood mental illness better then and now… Sadly on June 2, 2006, at the age of 55, Welnick passed away by suicide after battling depression for ten years. If someone you know suffers from mental illness or thoughts of suicide NAMI is a great resource If you or someone you know is in crisis, confidential help is available 24/7. Please reach out to the 988 National Suicide + Crisis Line, or contact 911 for immediate help. More resources can be found at 🙏🏼 . . Let us take our fellow man by the hand Try to help him to understand We can all be together forever and ever When we make it to the promised land

"I'm not sure that we need the dog whistle at this point. And maybe there are ways to re-create it." ~Nolan "There might be a day when Skywatcher doesn't need to exist." ~Nolan "If I had been running the whole show, nobody would even know what Skywatcher is right now." ~Nolan ~My comments in ( )~ Garry P. Nolan: "We've got a lot of data from multiple alleged sightings, both radar and other kinds of data. First it was about getting the raw-data files all put in one place because some of the data was collected by James (Fowler) before there was, officially, kind of a Skywatcher. "And so, getting that data, getting the instrument names that he used for those, then getting the technical manuals of what the settings might be and how much of that information is collected in the metadata when you're collecting the thing... All of this is just the organization that you need to do before you do anything else. "And then, getting from the companies how it is that they parse their raw data. Because some of these data files are put into...I wouldn't call them encrypted, but they're stacked into a certain kind of file structure - and I've seen the file structure - which is, you can think of it as a giant spreadsheet with headings and numbers for each of the columns and time on the row axis. "And so, you know, we've started looking at some of the data and put it into, let's say, 3D tracking. And it's clear that there are some things about the data that we needed to go back to the vendor who makes the instrument and say, 'Why is this and this and this happening, you know, every few dozen milliseconds?'" (I wonder if some of what they saw in their data, and labelled as anomalous, has maybe turned out to be a sensor artifact?) Nolan: "And so, you know, just getting an answer from these companies, often, when you don't even own the instrument, they're like, 'Well, why should we give you the information about how our data is constructed? How do we know that you're not a competitor?' Right? I mean, and so these are the kinds of things that we then contact somebody who has a behind-the-scenes access to this so that we can, again, it's all of these little steps. "And I'm sure there's somebody who's gonna tweet, 'Well, why don't you just put all the raw data out on the internet?' For exactly the same reason you don't put the raw data from ancient DNA sequencing. Because people will make mistakes about it. And so, if I'm going to be involved, I'm not gonna make any mistakes like that. So I'm sorry if people want stuff early. "I think you know, perhaps, if... Well, if I had been running the whole show, nobody would even know what Skywatcher is right now. We'd just be collecting the data in a fully-stealthed mode. And...but, you know, it's...there's reasons, good reasons, why they wanted some publicity. And, you know, but I don't always get my way." Vinnie - 𝐕𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐞 𝐀𝐝𝐚𝐦𝐬 𝕏: "Would you say that the data is exciting?" Nolan: "Oh, there's some interesting stuff in there. I mean, frankly, perhaps some of the better data that we have is just a couple of pictures from the ground of the helicopter with something about, you know, 200 feet in front of it. It's a clear blue sky and there's an object right in front of the helicopter. And the people in the helicopter said at the time that they couldn't see anything, even though we could see it from the ground. "But meanwhile, all of their instruments are going haywire. So, there was an effect. So why couldn't they see it? Maybe it was just out of view? Who knows? So it wasn't a lens flare, and it certainly wasn't a seagull. Mick (both laugh)." Vinnie: "Not in the desert anyway." Nolan: "I can't help myself." Vinnie: "I'm all for it. I'm sure Mick would, too. Hopefully. You know, James Fowler, we know he's left and moved on working with a new company. You know, all the best to him. Am I right in saying some of the technology being utilized by Skywatcher was proprietary to him, specifically? Maybe the dog whistle even? Is that still going to be able to be used by Skywatcher? How's that going to look going forward?" Nolan: "Umm, I'm not sure that we need the dog whistle at this point. And maybe there are ways to recreate it. I'm not party to the discussions around that. And so, we'll see where that goes." (That sounds like Fowler is NOT going to allow Skywatcher to use the dog whistle. That's a big disappointment. I mean, if this is really NHI and the dog whistle works 100% of the time, as claimed, then the whole world deserves to know about it.) Nolan: "I mean, James is not like, gone and forgotten. I mean, I could Signal chat him right now. And so he's there to help us. But, you know, my take on things is, you know, James has a life to live and a family to feed, and maybe his focus isn't entirely on UAP. He certainly has an interest in it. And maybe he has, you know, a company to build, and an opportunity that, actually, we all see now in terms of detecting drones. And, you know, if he wants to run a company like that then running around with a bunch of UAPologists might not be to that benefit. "And there might be a day when Skywatcher doesn't need to exist. The whole idea of Skywatcher is to show that something like this can be done, and it can be done in a serious way." (jakebarber claimed that they could BRING DOWN a craft. If that's true, it would change the world. What happened with that? Barber also said, "Who is operating [UAP]? How are they being operated? Where are they coming from? We should be able to answer those questions, probably entirely, in the next 12 months." Time is running out. Does he still stand behind that? Full Barber post with video clip: ) ~ Nolan: "I mean, I would...I, frankly, hope that if UAPDA - Disclosure Act is passed, because then the information that can be allowed to be out can be let out, and the stuff that needs to be kept secret stays secret. Again, I'm not, I would never advocate for a data dump." (I would 100% advocate for a data dump, minus details on anything that can be used as a weapon. Nobody, including the USG or private contractors owns this information. If it's gonna be a slow drip, for decades, then I fully support an Edward Snowden-type of leaker.) Nolan: "And so, you know, call it controlled disclosure, what have you. It needs to be done the proper way. And, you know, if any of the claims are true, there are reasons why you want to be methodical about it." (Who gets to decide what "the proper way" looks like? It seems like we're having more gatekeeping on top of the original gatekeeping. Not good.)

Most of you guys don't know that I grew up as a Christian missionary kid, with both of my parents in full-time ministry. What this meant is that I grew up seeing my parents imperfectly strive to be the hands and feet of Jesus. There were times when a homeless lady slept on our couch downstairs and a homeless man in a tent in our backyard. Other times when our side street was full of tables and people from the neighborhood as we fed the hungry. Constantly because I was homeschooled, school would be interrupted to help someone move something or donate stuff to the ministry thrift store. As a kid I often thought about how much more my parents could do if they had more money. That's where my desire to learn how to make money started because I wanted to be able to help their ministry. Somewhere along this journey I started to lose the plot and started to care more about money than God, which is a horrible place to get to. This morning while I was praying and thanking God for afflicting me, because truly before I was afflicted I went astray but now I love His law. A song that I wrote, I believe when I was around nine or ten years old, came back to my mind and truly it blows me away that my nine-year-old self had more wisdom at times than my late twenties self and my thirty-one-year-old self. And the reason for that is simple. All wisdom comes from God and man's wisdom is nothing compared to his, which means that if God wants to give a nine-year-old some wisdom, it can be greater than that of a PhD professor whose wisdom comes only from man. This is the song I wrote as a little boy. Verse 1: How crazy are everyday worries! How crazy the things that we dread! Oh how pointless the things that we long for! Oh how pointless the lives that we live! Chorus: How crazy, how crazy How pointless, how pointless can we live? Verse 2: We know who we should long for. We know who we should praise. We know who we should obey. But it's easier said than done. I remember my parents telling me that it was pretty good but no one would want to sing it because the chorus was too depressing and people want to be uplifted. So from then on I would just sing it to myself because I didn't think it was depressing because it reminded me about what mattered. It reminded me that everything the world told me mattered didn't. Sometimes I would use the song to pray, too, before I went to bed or after I woke up. Jesus Christ is the one that we should long for. He's the one that we should praise, and he is the one that we must obey. For Jesus says, "If you love me you will do what I command." Maybe you're reading this, extremely skeptical of God or any religion. I just would ask you: what's going to be the end of everything you're pursuing now? Is your life not like a breath, here today and gone tomorrow? Is all of the money that you're gathering not simply going to be left to someone else for you're not going to be able to take any of it with you? Will not all of your memories that you cherish so dearly be lost with you when you die? Is not the fruit of all that you're pursuing meaningless if there is no God for the end of the universe is cold, dark, and lifeless and not even the generations between now and lifelessness will remember you? If there was no God there would be nothing. Just like if you live like there is no God, all of your pursuits will come to nothing. Yet "God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son so that whoever believes in him shall not perish but shall have everlasting life." You see we don't have a God of this universe who is impersonal who doesn't care for us. No he desires a relationship with us and the way that we know that is because he literally limited himself and came to earth as a man to show us the way to eternal life. He said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." When Jesus truly becomes the one you treasure above all else and when you look at Him, the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, He who dwells in unapproachable light, who no man has ever seen, and to whom belongs glory and eternal dominion. When you look at that and your heart becomes set upon nothing but His kingdom, He makes your path straight. He gives you work to do that will store up fruit in eternity that already today can earn you wages that will be everlasting. He will make our lives on this Earth not meaningless but full of far more meaning than we can even grasp, comprehend, or imagine. Lord, I just lift up every single reader of this post and ask that You would open their eyes, God, by the power of Your Spirit. That You would soften their hearts, Lord, and give them understanding by the fullness of Your power, Lord, because by human wisdom Your Kingdom cannot be grasped. So Lord, call them by Your Spirit that they may answer You, that they may repent and that they may live starting today for eternal life. Amen.

Most of you guys don't know that I grew up as a Christian missionary kid, with both of my parents in full-time ministry. What this meant is that I grew up seeing my parents imperfectly strive to be the hands and feet of Jesus. There were times when a homeless lady slept on our couch downstairs and a homeless man in a tent in our backyard. Other times when our side street was full of tables and people from the neighborhood as we fed the hungry. Constantly because I was homeschooled, school would be interrupted to help someone move something or donate stuff to the ministry thrift store. As a kid I often thought about how much more my parents could do if they had more money. That's where my desire to learn how to make money started because I wanted to be able to help their ministry. Somewhere along this journey I started to lose the plot and started to care more about money than God, which is a horrible place to get to. This morning while I was praying and thanking God for afflicting me, because truly before I was afflicted I went astray but now I love His law. A song that I wrote, I believe when I was around nine or ten years old, came back to my mind and truly it blows me away that my nine-year-old self had more wisdom at times than my late twenties self and my thirty-one-year-old self. And the reason for that is simple. All wisdom comes from God and man's wisdom is nothing compared to his, which means that if God wants to give a nine-year-old some wisdom, it can be greater than that of a PhD professor whose wisdom comes only from man. This is the song I wrote as a little boy. Verse 1: How crazy are everyday worries! How crazy the things that we dread! Oh how pointless the things that we long for! Oh how pointless the lives that we live! Chorus: How crazy, how crazy How pointless, how pointless can we live? Verse 2: We know who we should long for. We know who we should praise. We know who we should obey. But it's easier said than done. I remember my parents telling me that it was pretty good but no one would want to sing it because the chorus was too depressing and people want to be uplifted. So from then on I would just sing it to myself because I didn't think it was depressing because it reminded me about what mattered. It reminded me that everything the world told me mattered didn't. Sometimes I would use the song to pray, too, before I went to bed or after I woke up. Jesus Christ is the one that we should long for. He's the one that we should praise, and he is the one that we must obey. For Jesus says, "If you love me you will do what I command." Maybe you're reading this, extremely skeptical of God or any religion. I just would ask you: what's going to be the end of everything you're pursuing now? Is your life not like a breath, here today and gone tomorrow? Is all of the money that you're gathering not simply going to be left to someone else for you're not going to be able to take any of it with you? Will not all of your memories that you cherish so dearly be lost with you when you die? Is not the fruit of all that you're pursuing meaningless if there is no God for the end of the universe is cold, dark, and lifeless and not even the generations between now and lifelessness will remember you? If there was no God there would be nothing. Just like if you live like there is no God, all of your pursuits will come to nothing.
