In mechanical engineering, cutting deeper threads does not make a bolt stronger. In fact, it does the exact opposite. There is a precise point of diminishing returns where adding thread depth significantly weakens the fastener without providing any extra holding power. The strength of any threaded connection depends on...

‘Russia has a full-scale and effective army’ – Chief of the General Staff of the French Armed Forces Thierry Burkhard. ‘Russia has openly called France its main adversary in Europe. And these are not my words, these are the words of Russia itself. Russia is a threat, if not in everything, then in almost everything, a long-term threat, a close one, and for me it is the largest. First of all, it is a real military power, possessing both conventional and nuclear potential, and this is not hidden. In fact, Russia builds its system on military force, and it continues to make huge, colossal efforts to this, the scale of which is difficult for us to imagine. Russia is really developing the ability to cause damage, and it does so very, very effectively. When we talk about a full-scale model of the army, the Russian army is precisely such a full-scale model to the very tips of its nails.’ Slavyangrad

A very serious Conversation between a concerned citizen and the Special adviser to President Tinubu on economic affairs. Lady: “Are you aware that you can no longer buy 500 naira tomatoes from the market? Are you also aware that people have to beg for basic things such as food ? As basic as it is ? The gatemen of your estates, your security guards are all underpaid, are you also aware that you cannot walk on the street again without the fear of being r0bb£d of your phone so they can sell it to eat ? Are you also aware of the current situation concerning the safety and the pricing errors in the uber and bolt system ? Even as a person, you’re not safe boarding these cabs, Is the president aware of all these?” Special Adviser:

🧵1/25 This thread is going to open a series of threads discussing the prevalence of abuse in our society and the effects of porn on minors, the effect of abuse within certain elements of the adult industry and its impacts as a whole. The purpose of this thread is to address unlawful activity rather that any reasonable person regardless of moral and ethical beliefs should be able to agree on. Much of the contributions presented in this thread have come from people who were in or currently are in the adult industry and their insights have provided invaluable information to address this situation, demonstrating that valuable information can come from any source, one just has to be open to objectively looking for it. I would like to thank all of the people who had the courage to speak about their experiences that have given invaluable insight into a larger issue that is plaguing out society as a whole. The first clip examined is Lisa Ann & Brittni De La Mora discussing the question of whether porn encourages trafficking and touching on the effect that pornography has on teenagers/minors and how violence during sex is becoming more commonplace.

🚨🇮🇷 🇺🇸KHARG ISLAND: A MILITARY SUICIDE MISSION? Dimitri Lascaris warns against the "logistical nightmare" of U.S. boots on the ground in Iran. Any force on the island would be sitting ducks for wave after wave of mainland drones and artillery. We are in dangerous territory where escalation is the only practical path forward. Would you like me to generate a thread connecting these points for a deeper analysis? Dimitri Lascaris

There’s a video circulating online claiming to show damage to one of the Miami signature bridge’s arches so I reached out to FDOT for comment. Here’s what they told me: “We want to assure the public that this is not a safety issue. The areas shown in the images are not structural cracks, but minor surface finishing inconsistencies that can sometimes occur after concrete is poured and the formwork is removed. These surface variations are cosmetic in nature and are not structural components or defects. They do not affect the safety, durability, or structural integrity of the bridge in any way. Any surface irregularities are addressed through standard concrete finishing procedures as part of normal construction practice. FDOT is fully committed to ensuring the safety, quality, and long-term durability of the I-395 Signature Bridge. The project is subject to rigorous engineering standards, continuous inspection, and strict quality control measures throughout every phase of construction. Safety remains FDOT’s highest priority, and the Department works closely with project leadership to uphold and exceed established structural and safety requirements. We appreciate the community’s attention and willingness to report anything that seems unusual.”

Have you ever wondered why Mahatma Gandhi placed such emphasis on khadi? Why did he frame the entire freedom struggle around the concept of khadi? And why did he only wear khadi? Because khadi is not just a cloth. Khadi is the expression of the people of India. It is the imagination, it is the sentiment, it is the productive force of the people of India. It is the expression of the people of India. Whichever state you go to, you will find different fabrics, and you will find that all these fabrics represent the people. When the people of Assam give you gamcha, they are not just giving you a piece of cloth; they are giving you a piece of their history, their tradition, their imagination. It's the same with people from other states. These fabrics are beautiful, but when you see these fabrics closely, you will find that each one of them has thousands of little threads embracing each other. All threads are equal. The threads cannot protect you or keep you warm, but when they come together as a fabric, they can keep you warm, protect you, and they can express what you have in your heart. In the same way, our nation is also a fabric. A fabric made up of 1.4 billion people, and the fabric is woven together by votes. The idea that every thread, every person in the union of India is equal - that disturbs my friends in RSS. They are happy to see the fabric, but they cannot stand the idea that every single person in our fabric, in our country, is equal. : LoP Shri Rahul Gandhi in LokSabha

We witnessed the raw power of nature yesterday just south of Seward Alaska! It was incredible to watch this massive glacier calving, sending a huge wave through the water. Absolutely breathtaking to see firsthand. Glacial calving is a natural process where large chunks of ice break off from the edge of a glacier. This typically happens at the “terminus” or snout, where the glacier meets the sea, a lake, or even dry land. When these massive pieces of ice fall into the water, they become icebergs, or in smaller pieces, “growlers” or “bergy bits.” The process is primarily driven by gravity and the movement of the glacier itself. As a glacier flows—acting like a slow-moving river of ice—it experiences immense internal stress. When it reaches a point where it is no longer supported by land or where it extends out over the water, the ice becomes unstable. Cracks called crevasses form in the ice, and when these cracks penetrate deep enough, a section of the ice can no longer hold its own weight and snaps off, crashing down with incredible force. Calving is a dynamic and loud phenomenon that often triggers significant waves. It is a normal part of a glacier’s life cycle, and very common in the warmer summer months.

I built a multiplayer embroidery sampler for the internet. It's called Common Thread. 🪡 Built the entire thing in Figma Make, first thing I've ever vibecoded with it. Every visitor gets a patch on a shared canvas. You pick a thread color, choose a stitch type, and craft your art. A sampler is a piece of fabric where you practice and collect different stitches — a reference guide and playground in one. They were meant to be passed between hands and added to over time. Common Thread is that, but the fabric is infinite, the UI is whimsical, and the hands are anonymous. The part I love most: you can snap any section with a draggable embroidery hoop and export it, framed. i love how Figma Make is a kind of tool that lets you focus on what something should feel like, not how to ship it. Made for the Contra x Figma Makethon #FigmaMakeathon Try it yourself! /link below/

🤯 When tight tolerances are critical this Wire EDM cutting is definitely a game changer, this process has zero residual waste compared to CNC machines and lathe cutting. ⏺️ A very thin brass (or coated) wire — roughly the thickness of a human hair — acts as an electrode. ⏺️ It never physically touches the metal workpiece. Instead, it maintains a tiny gap while high-frequency electrical sparks (discharges) rapidly erode tiny bits of metal. ⏺️ Dielectric fluid (usually deionized water or oil) flushes away the debris, keeps everything cool, and prevents short circuits. ⏺️ Result: Extremely precise cuts with zero mechanical pressure, no burrs, no distortion, and excellent surface finish — even on hardened steel, tungsten, or exotic alloys. ⏺️ The video highlights this on a bolt/thread example and mentions how engineers spent millions developing it for complex paths (spirals, etc.). An entry-level machine starts at $5 K all the way up to $500 K for the more sophisticated models.

There is a scene from the movie "Ballad: Na mo naki koi no uta" (which seems to adapt the same plot as Shin Chan) where they depict the exact same form of pike fighting. This is based on a historical source ( Zōhyō Monogatari) written in the 1660s, that instructs us to "not only thrust" as "it's better to strike. Raise your pike higher than the opponent's and strike in unison". This would definitely not be standard practice for most of the sengoku jidai. My friend Gunsen History will like me to state that, this advice is from a time where pikemen were there mainly to support the gunmen, and thus wouldn't take the central part of the fighting. It would make sense then, for these men to not be as used to fighting and to develop some sort of drill to effectively end the fights without a prolongued engagement. Still fascinating to see an interpretation of a primary source portrayed onscreen.

My Somali Brothers & Sisters, It’s very good for Somalia, its people & the region if you could peacefully & quickly finish the Somalia-Somaliland issue from its root. This is too old a problem not to bear consequences and dealing only with its consequences will bring more embarrassment to your people, country and the region. The neighboring countries, of course, have an obligation to support you on this matter, not to make fun of it & bragging. Showcasing the country as a failed state & humiliating its leaders on livestream TV show isn’t by any standard a good sign for the sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity of that country.

It is not just the media & politicians that have BLOOD on their hands One of our national security agencies has ONLY NOW, post-Belfast, declared migrants are a NATIONAL SECURITY risk Watch our hard-hitting show: In this clip David Oldroyd-Bolt skewers those in charge: "The frequency of these atrocities, the severity of them, & the unbridled BLOODLUST of those committing them, demonstrates that "this is NOT a problem of integration or assimilation or isolated instances of migrants with axes to grind. "This is a general systemic problem. "I think the fact that the national security agency has only just, in the past two days, said that immigration is a problem is not just bolting the door after the horse has bolted. "It's bolting the stable door when the horse bolted, gone off, found pasture, sired foals, and has died a long natural death. "It is absolutely absurd that the people WE PAY to look out on our behalf for these kind of threats are ONLY JUST stating in public that mass migration is the greatest single threat to national security."

Dario Argento on why "Suspiria" (1977) could be interpreted as a lesbian story: "I wasn't primarily interested in the theme of motherhood but, rather, in women's lives. In fact, if you want to give a deeper reading of the film, it can be seen as a vaguely lesbian story; where lesbianism has a certain importance, or, more precisely, where the relationships between women are sometimes of a lesbian nature and are characterized by power struggles. There aren't any male characters to speak of in the film. All there is are power relations between women." ("Bodies of Desire and Bodies in Distress", Xavier Mendik, 2015)

BOOM: Peter Meijer on the anti-Semitic socialists winning in New York City last night... Darializa Avila Chevalier “is where the heart and center of the party lies right now. I mean, that’s where the enthusiasm is. I mean, to your point, yes, the establishment, everybody hates the establishment of both parties, you know, and the dissatisfaction with the status quo runs across the board. The challenge is it’s not, you know, oh, you’re being feckless. Like, the elections last night to me, and especially the Goldman race — like these — the unifying thread of the democratic party being opposition to Donald Trump like that dog doesn’t hunt anymore. Like it is 100% where the animating force is — is on the DSA side, and it’s specifically routed around call Gaza a genocide, focus on Israel. That is the animating passionate force. And there are some very dark conspiracies that kind of go from there that all have deep anti-Semitic roots. That’s what’s terrifying. I’m not trying to make light of this. I mean, Republicans will use her as the foil, but this scares the hell out of me for where our politics are going.” “It was an animating force at the Democratic convention in Michigan!”

Elon Musk: Our squabbles on Earth are very minor when you consider the grandness of the universe. “It's awe-inspiring to consider just how tiny we are in the grand scheme of things. And yet we often get sort of caught up in the sort of these sort of squabbles on Earth that are really very sort of minor things when you consider the grandness of the universe. And so I think it is important actually to consider the grandness of the universe and what we can do that is much greater than what we've done before, as opposed to worry about sort of small squabbles on Earth. There's not much point in that. We want to be a civilization that expands to the galaxy with spaceships that anyone can go anywhere they want and at any time that would be epic. And have a city on the moon, cities on Mars, populate the solar system and send spaceships to other star systems. That sounds like the best possible future.” From: Terafab announcement, March 21, 2026

At the end of the day, as I discussed with Jordan Peterson, there are just two games to be played, one real, one Woke. The real game is called civilization. The false game is called power. A long post/🧵: The real divide between Woke and not Woke is in power. The Woke game is the power game, and it is a parasite on the real game, which is civilization. Here's roughly how Jordan described the foundation of this idea. There are various rules, norms, etc., in the game society ultimately plays, and these create a hierarchy that is based upon competence, mostly organically, obviously imperfectly. If the rules of the game are good enough, the imperfections (natural corruptions) are minor and society thrives. If they are not, you'll have problems. This is the real game of building society, and it ultimately has to favor competence. This game must be called "civilization" because that's not just its goal but it is also what it does. It civilizes us beyond our base instincts and impulses so we can work together productively in a healthy manner that generates prosperity. As Jordan put it, this game is also a reservoir of value, and reservoirs of value create parasites. What are these civilizational parasites? They’re parallel games organized by and around malignant psychopathological modes like Dark Tetrad traits, psychopathy, and Cluster-B disorders: histrionic, borderline, antisocial, and narcissistic. These malignant pathologies render people incompetent except at manipulation, so they cannot rise far in a healthy civilizational hierarchy. What do they do, then, to gain power and status in life in a game they cannot actually play? They define a parasitic parallel game and rope people into playing it. It is parasitic in that it draws off the real game (civilization) and mimics its form so that the hosts (people in society) are less likely to realize it’s there, but it doesn’t build or create of its own. It siphons and tears down. What drives this game is failing to see what makes the civilizational game and the hierarchy it produces legitimate in the first place. This is characteristic of the psychopathologies at its heart. The narcissist imagines the world should be serving himself at the top, but it isn’t. The problem can’t be himself, so it must be that the game is illegitimate. Otherwise, he’d be at the top, but he isn’t. Therefore, the game is corrupt. His histrionic nature makes him a victim of the real game, preying upon emotions like empathy and righteous indignation to recruit followers. Because of his Dark Tetrad alignment, his game is not only illegitimate but toxic. It’s inherently sadistic, cruel to its recruits in the way typical of all cults—alternating punishment and leniency or even love-bombing. It’s dishonest. It’s psychologically broken from reality. It’s also a Machiavellian game, which means it has no interest in moral or ethical behavior but only in power. Thus, this rival game to the game of civilization is the game of power. The parasitic game—that is, the power game—is based on a fundamental failure to understand the legitimacy of the civilizational game or the approximately legitimate hierarchy it produces. This is a result of its narcissism, mostly. The game cannot be legitimate because the psychopath isn’t on top of it, where he sees himself constantly as a projection from his frail ego. It sees power in the real hierarchy, though, which it can perceive and understand, and for which it blames most of its troubles. What this means is that the (Woke) power game develops a critical theory of the existing legitimate civilization game. That’s why Woke means “using critical theory (and activism).” A critical theory exists not to articulate a vision—at least not beyond a Utopia after the cult power game holds power to enforce its power game long enough—but to “criticize those aspects of the existing society we wish to change,” as Max Horkheimer, creator of the Critical Theory, put it. The critical theory of the power game exists to recruit by delegitimizing the civilization game in the minds of some of its players, usually ones who aren’t succeeding as well. It picks at “contradictions,” failures, and imperfections while casting the whole civilization game as corrupt and unjust. It offers itself as the only alternative to civilization game while pulling at the threads of the civilization game that allow people to believe in it. It all proceeds from the Woke failure to understand the legitimacy of the hierarchy of the civilization game as it proceeds from its set of rules. Misunderstanding legitimacy leads it to conclude that all hierarchies are actually based in power, and all power is fundamentally arbitrary. That is, they do not believe all power is illegitimate. They believe power is the only legitimate thing in any hierarchy, but they also believe that power is located in persons like themselves through their narcissism and projection. Think of Voldemort as an icon of this mode of thinking: “there is no good or evil, only power and those too weak to seek it.” Of course, that quintessential Dark Tetrad perspective is what ensures the psychopathological power game will be rigged to make sure the psychopaths are attracted to it and rise to its top. This belief is what we call Woke. The Woke game is the power game, and it is a parasitic competitor to the civilization game. There is no overlap between these two games. To adopt the power game is to abandon the civilization game entirely and, in fact, to become its enemy. But James, you might ask, isn’t there power in civilization? Yes, there is, and necessarily, but it isn’t what defines the civilization game. It’s a byproduct of the game, not the game itself. The civilization game is fundamentally the building out of an organic and dynamic hierarchy based on a set of rules, or what some people call “muh principles,” that will succeed or fail for that civilization in direct proportion to three things. 1) How aligned with the truth are the rules of the civilization game? 2) How aligned with justice are the rules of the civilization game? 3) How willing are the participants of the civilization game to defend their principles and their game, including against socio-parasitical perversion? The more aligned with truth and justice a civilization game is, the more successful it will be, and the more legitimate its hierarchy. The power that results as a byproduct is extremely legitimate in a highly aligned civilization where people haven’t forgotten their charge to defend the game itself, which is what we call responsibility. A civilization game strongly aligned with truth and justice filled with a preponderance of responsible people will produce a thriving, prosperous society. It only works this way every time. Not everyone is responsible, though. Some are also incompetent because of various pathologies (not talking about for other reasons). Those pathological players may, under certain circumstances, create a parasitic side game with themselves on top through a variety of strategies that mimic the values and principles of the real game while distorting them into power plays because their game is power, as discussed above. They will recruit into that game primarily from those who are resentful of the real game for any variety of reasons, and getting recruited into the power game from the civilization game is called “going Woke.”

At the end of the day, as I discussed with Jordan Peterson, there are just two games to be played, one real, one Woke. The real game is called civilization. The false game is called power. A long post/🧵: The real divide between Woke and not Woke is in power. The Woke game is the power game, and it is a parasite on the real game, which is civilization. Here's roughly how Jordan described the foundation of this idea. There are various rules, norms, etc., in the game society ultimately plays, and these create a hierarchy that is based upon competence, mostly organically, obviously imperfectly. If the rules of the game are good enough, the imperfections (natural corruptions) are minor and society thrives. If they are not, you'll have problems. This is the real game of building society, and it ultimately has to favor competence. This game must be called "civilization" because that's not just its goal but it is also what it does. It civilizes us beyond our base instincts and impulses so we can work together productively in a healthy manner that generates prosperity. As Jordan put it, this game is also a reservoir of value, and reservoirs of value create parasites. What are these civilizational parasites? They’re parallel games organized by and around malignant psychopathological modes like Dark Tetrad traits, psychopathy, and Cluster-B disorders: histrionic, borderline, antisocial, and narcissistic. These malignant pathologies render people incompetent except at manipulation, so they cannot rise far in a healthy civilizational hierarchy. What do they do, then, to gain power and status in life in a game they cannot actually play? They define a parasitic parallel game and rope people into playing it. It is parasitic in that it draws off the real game (civilization) and mimics its form so that the hosts (people in society) are less likely to realize it’s there, but it doesn’t build or create of its own. It siphons and tears down. What drives this game is failing to see what makes the civilizational game and the hierarchy it produces legitimate in the first place. This is characteristic of the psychopathologies at its heart. The narcissist imagines the world should be serving himself at the top, but it isn’t. The problem can’t be himself, so it must be that the game is illegitimate. Otherwise, he’d be at the top, but he isn’t. Therefore, the game is corrupt. His histrionic nature makes him a victim of the real game, preying upon emotions like empathy and righteous indignation to recruit followers. Because of his Dark Tetrad alignment, his game is not only illegitimate but toxic. It’s inherently sadistic, cruel to its recruits in the way typical of all cults—alternating punishment and leniency or even love-bombing. It’s dishonest. It’s psychologically broken from reality. It’s also a Machiavellian game, which means it has no interest in moral or ethical behavior but only in power. Thus, this rival game to the game of civilization is the game of power. The parasitic game—that is, the power game—is based on a fundamental failure to understand the legitimacy of the civilizational game or the approximately legitimate hierarchy it produces.

WARFARE 101: The best plan on any battlefield gives you the most options up to the last possible minute. That is a principle every combat commander learns early, and it is one we should be applying to the situation in front of us right now. We have multiple wars unfolding at the same time, and the pace of decision-making has to match the complexity of the threat. Ukraine has nearly fallen out of the public conversation, yet thousands of people are being killed every day. That war has not paused. It has simply moved out of the headlines. The same is true of the conflict in Iran that we are currently engaged in. Every one of these fights deserves clear-eyed attention and a full set of options on the table. I believe there are solutions to the war in Ukraine and to the conflict we are navigating today against Iran. Solutions exist when leaders preserve flexibility, listen to honest counsel, and refuse to lock into a single course of action before the situation demands it. The moment a commander surrenders his options, he surrenders his initiative. The moment a nation surrenders its options, it surrenders its leverage. This is the discipline of sound strategy. Keep the options open. Keep the thinking sharp. Keep the door to peace within reach without ever sacrificing strength. That is how wars are ended on terms that hold, and that is how a great nation leads through a season of conflict. Pray for our troops, the innocent caught in these wars, and pray for the wisdom of our Commander in Chief, carrying the weight of these decisions. LindellTV Cara Castronuova ✅

🚨 JUST IN: The greatest Secretary of State Marco Rubio says he has RESET foreign policy in favor of America First He said all of this perfectly. Marco is GREAT. "One of the assumptions was the loss of the notion of the NATIONAL INTEREST in our foreign policy. At the core, foreign policy needs to be the national interest of the United States." "Now, that doesn't mean that there aren't issues and things we care about in the world. But at its core, the core principle of the national interest, the core principle behind our foreign policy needs to be our national interest." "So you have to, first of all, define what is the national interest, and then you have to apply it. We defined it as we are in favor of foreign policies that make America safer, or stronger, or more prosperous. Hopefully all three, but at least one of those three." "And then it requires you to prioritize. Even the richest, most powerful, and influential country on Earth has limited resources, has limited time. And it has to be able to dedicate those resources and time through a process of prioritization." "We're very proud of that going into effect and continuing to work forward."
