About 10 minutes ago, two people, a man and a woman, showed up at my house. They knocked for several minutes. At first, I didn’t answer, hoping they would eventually leave. Instead, they kept knocking louder and louder. Because I know my life is in danger and I’m home alone right now, I decided not to even go near the door or look through the peephole. My husband has always told me not to do that. He said if someone came to kill me, they could shoot me through the door if they knew I was standing there. So I stayed well away from the door and asked what they wanted. They said they were looking for someone named Louis. I told them no one by that name lives here. They then asked me to open the door because they couldn’t hear me properly. I refused and told them they could speak from where they were. The moment I said that, they started walking away. I immediately ran upstairs and recorded them from my balcony. The woman did all the talking. The man didn’t say a word. As I have informed you all before, the Tanzanian government has commissioned Mexican cartels to kill me. Today, while I was home alone, two Mexicans showed up at my front door. Everything is being forwarded to the FBI. If anything happens to me, this is where the investigation should begin. I think the time has come for me to put away my fear of guns and buy one. Hopefully this week I find the courage to own one. KISWAHILI Takribani dakika 10 zilizopita, watu wawili, mwanamume na mwanamke, walifika nyumbani kwangu. Waligonga mlango kwa dakika kadhaa. Mwanzoni sikuitika, nikitumaini kwamba wangeondoka. Badala yake, waliendelea kugonga kwa nguvu zaidi na zaidi. Kwa sababu ninajua maisha yangu yako hatarini na kwa sasa niko peke yangu nyumbani, niliamua kutosogea hata karibu na mlango wala kutazama kupitia tundu la mlango. Mume wangu amekuwa akiniambia kila mara nisifanye hivyo. Aliniambia kwamba kama kuna mtu amekuja kuniua, anaweza kunipiga risasi kupitia mlangoni akijua nimesimama nyuma ya mlango. Kwa hiyo nilibaki mbali na mlango na kuwauliza wanataka nini. Walisema wanamtafuta mtu anayeitwa Louis. Nikawaambia hakuna mtu wa jina hilo anayeishi hapa. Kisha wakaniomba nifungue mlango wakidai hawawezi kunisikia vizuri. Nilikataa na nikawaambia wazungumze wakiwa waliposimama. Mara tu niliposema hivyo, walianza kuondoka. Nilikimbia haraka ghorofani na kuwarekodi kutoka kwenye roshani yangu. Mwanamke ndiye aliyekuwa akizungumza muda wote. Mwanamume hakusema hata neno moja. Kama nilivyowaeleza hapo awali, serikali ya Tanzania imewaajiri makundi ya wahalifu wa Mexico (Mexican cartels) ili kuniua. Leo, nikiwa peke yangu nyumbani, Wamexico wawili walifika kwenye mlango wa nyumba yangu. Taarifa zote zinawasilishwa kwa FBI. Ikiwa chochote kitanitokea, uchunguzi unapaswa kuanzia hapa. Nadhani muda umefika wa mimi kuacha kuogopa silaha na sina budi kununua silaha wiki hii ili mtu akigonga tena mlangoni naenda mlangoni na bunduki.

This is my initial reaction to hearing my friend Roger Stone tell the world on ABC Radio that the FBI may actually indeed be investigating Charles McGonigal for espionage. So I’m sitting here chained to my laptop working all day when I got a text from someone telling me that Roger Stone was talking about me on his radio show. I didn’t know about that untill right now so he sent me the link and this is my first reaction: OVERWHELMED WITH JOY!!! Everything I ever said that I believe I witnessed when I was dating Charlie in social media posts may actually now lead to a REAL espionage investigation and hopefully Charlie will get rhe life sentence rhah he deserves. I believe I witnessed Charles McGonigal committing espionage and other unprosecuted financial crimes. I do believe that the Biden Justice department allowed the FBI and assisted them and DOJ covering up those crimes. And maybe everybody else who was never charged during the first time I tried so hard to turn Charlie in well now finally receive justice. It was never my job to neutralize threats coming from within the government. It’s the FBI’s job to neutralize those threats. It’s Congress’s job to investigate those threats and hold hearings about insider threats within the government. And it was always the Department of Justice’s job to protect us from evil and corrupt individuals like CHARLES McGonigal and all of his friends who sold our secrets and risk our national security apparatus. They did not do their jobs. When did it become my job? Answer: It became my job the day i was lucky enough to born and an American. I documented everything I discovered when I realized thay Charlie was accepting bribes because I am a loyal American. Yes I did indeed invoke my formal Whistleblower Declaration to the United States Government. I wonder if anyone else in the media is going to pick this up? And I can’t believe Roger didn’t even mention that he was going to open the show with this last night about me and Charles McGonigal! I am overjoyed. I am truly overwhelmed with joy. 6 1/2 years of nothing but retaliation, intimidation, obstruction, harassment, and threats from both the FBI and DOJ… and according to Roger, the FBI is actually taking another look at all the evidence I tried to give them when I first turned Charlie in six years ago after a documented almost everything I could of all the crimes he committed when I was his girlfriend, and even after I was his girlfriend. Thank G-d Trump Won!! And Kash Patel and Danny Bongino are now in charge of the FBI. #AmericasEnemiesAreMyEnemies #Justice #CharlesMcGonigal #FBI #AML #MoneyLaundering #FBICorruption #transactionalespionage #AllisonGuerriero #RogerStone #RogerStoneDidNothingWrong #StayTuned #IToldYouSo #Espionage

I convinced my entire family, relatives, friends, and everyone I know to vote for Modi and the BJP in 2024. I truly believed they were the ultimate nationalists ~ putting the nation above everything else, that no one was more patriotic than them. What a fool I was. I feel ashamed and disgusted with myself for falling for it. They proved me dead wrong.. The harsh reality? This government only cares about SC, ST, and OBC vote banks. General category people ~the so-called “forward castes” ~are nothing but disposable tools to them. They don’t give a damn about merit, fairness, or the future of our children. All they crave is raw power, seats, and staying in control at any cost. They will happily sacrifice the dreams and opportunities of millions of hardworking, tax-paying general category families to keep their coalition of castes happy. Enough is enough. I swear on everything I hold : In 2029, I will make damn sure no one in my family, no relative, no friend, no acquaintance wastes even a single vote on Modi or the BJP again. Then whom to vote? What’s the solution? Instead, we must back independent candidates who fight tooth and nail for merit first, nation first. Candidates who refuse to play the endless Dalit-Dalit card, who don’t obsess over caste quotas day and night while ignoring the silent massacre of general category opportunities in education, jobs, and promotions. Look at examples like Pappu Yadav and Chandrashekhar Azad ~ they won as independents in 2024 . If such worthless people can win, then in the general category there are far more educated people than them. 20-25 seats, they can also get those. Imagine if 20–25 such merit-driven, no-nonsense independents get elected out of 543 seats They can install governments or topple them overnight. That’s all it takes. Just 20–25 genuine MPs who prioritize competence over caste, nation over vote-bank politics. To every general category voter: Stop feeding these traitors. Boycott every party. Find local independents who actually stand for equal opportunity and national strength. Back them hard. Even if they lose, you won’t wake up sick with regret, knowing the person you voted for just stole another seat, job, or future from your own child. We’ve been silent doormats too long. No more. Vote merit. Vote nation. Or watch your bloodline get erased while you stay quiet. Your call.

Full Debate Analysis: Trump won convincingly, had a strong performance, despite going into a 3-1 debate against the moderators. However, Kamala did not bomb, and did enough to keep her campaign alive. The story of the debate is ABC showing their blatant bias in favor of Kamala, and weaponized their “fact-checks” solely at Trump. They let Kamala lie unchecked about everything from the Project 2025 hoax, to the Charlottesville hoax, and everything in between. The ABC moderators showed a clear and obvious hostility towards Trump, that they did not show towards Kamala, and in many cases, teed Kamala up to bash Trump with prepared talking points. It is now abundantly clear why Kamala refused to accept the debate on Fox News, because her campaign knew she would receive preferential treatment on ABC. Kamala also was well-rehearsed, which is unlike her, almost as if she had the questions given to her ahead of time. If ABC were willing to be adversarial towards Trump, why would they stop there? Why wouldn’t they give Kamala the questions? ABC (Disney) just confirmed on national TV, that they are in bed with the DNC, and given their war-like posture towards Trump, I think it’s safe to assume Kamala’s campaign were made aware of the questions before hand. With all that being said, Trump got the viral moments of the night, stuck to his gameplan, and brushed off the endless lies and repeated attacks, from both Kamala and the moderators. Kamala’s optics were terrible, with her constant smirking, making faces, emotional responses, and monotone phony tone. And Trump refused to let her get her viral moment. Kamala’s gameplan was to appear more moderate, and blame Trump for all the problems she and Biden created over the last 4 years, but anyone who has been paying attention saw this for what it was. Given Kamala held her own and did not implode, we can expect the compromised MSM to claim Kamala won, and the headlines will be about Trump talking about Haitians eating pets. However, the viral internet clips will belong to Trump. Overall, Kamala did not gain any ground, Trump put on a solid performance, and the public got to see the MSM are clearly engaged in election interference in favor of the Dems. Net positive for Trump.

Michael Phelps won 23 Olympic gold medals using a mental technique most athletes ignore: "The biggest thing that really separated me through my career was my mental game. Everything that was in between my ears." Michael explains how he used visualization: "When I would visualize, I'd visualize every single thing getting up to a meet, probably a month or so in advance. What could happen. What I want to happen. And what I don't want to happen. Because when it happened, I was prepared for it." He describes the goal: "When I got to a swim meet, there's nothing I can control at that point except what I do. I can't control what anybody else does. So I want to know how the race could go, how I don't want the race to go, and in a perfect world, how the race should go. So I could get behind the block and not have to think about anything." His coach Bob Bowman reveals how they trained this skill: "When Michael was young, I gave his mom a book of progressive relaxation. Before he'd go to bed at night, she would read this progression of things: clench your fists, work through your whole body. He got so good she'd just open the book, say two things, and he'd be asleep." Bowman explains why visualization works: "The brain cannot distinguish between something that's vividly visualized and something that's real. By the time Michael steps up on the block at the Olympics, he's swum that race hundreds of times in his mind. All he has to do is shut everything down and it goes on autopilot." Michael adds the key detail most miss: "When I would visualize, it would be what you want it to be, what you don't want it to be, what it could be. So you're always ready for anything. If I have a suit rip, fine, I need another suit, put it on. Any small thing that could go wrong, I'm ready for."

🚨HERASKEVYCH: “WE TRAINED 12 TIMES A WEEK. I FINISHED QUALIFYING IN FIRST PLACE WITH THE BEST RESULTS — BUT UNFORTUNATELY, THAT’S WHERE MY JOURNEY ENDED. THE CAS DECISION IS SHAMEFUL.” Vladyslav Heraskevych (Vladyslav Heraskevych OLY) was invited to the Munich Security Conference, where he briefly spoke with journalists and commented on the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) decision to reject his appeal. HERASKEVYCH: Today we only had a court hearing this morning, and there's already a decision. We're already thinking about our next steps, because I believe the CAS decision is also shameful, but I'll comment in more detail a bit later. I need to familiarize myself with it in more detail. The hearing itself was, in my opinion, rather one-sided. I didn't hear anything we couldn't answer. Yet at the same time, there were no responses to any of our arguments. And it was very strange for me to see such a decision from CAS. The preparation took quite a long time, and for the athlete, for me, I was probably in the best form of my career. You could say I've been working toward this my entire career. If we're talking specifically about results, the training camps were excellent. I finished the qualifying training in first place with the best result. Unfortunately, that’s where my journey ended. Of course, along the way there were many sacrifices and many training sessions. On average we did 12 training sessions a week, and well, that's truly a massive amount, and they were exhausting. And unfortunately, all of this led to us not being able to compete due to the unlawful actions of the NOC. Q: If I may ask a question: how are you feeling right now? HERASKEVYCH: Right now I'm still in a state... I really haven't slept much these last 4 days, and we constantly have so many updates coming in. I honestly can't quite keep up with observing everything that's happening. I knew many athletes personally, and the idea came up a long time ago. We managed to execute it just shortly before the Olympics. It was painted by a wonderful artist from Kyiv, Iryna Prots. She painted all of this just like all Ukrainians are living - under shelling, in the cold, without electricity. But at the same time she did an incredible job to honor the memory of these wonderful athletes. Among them, we can talk about many. I'll probably start with Dmytro Sharpar, who was a member of the Olympic team at the 2016 Youth Olympic Games, that same team that I was on. We competed together with him at those Olympic Games and, unfortunately, like other people on this helmet, he was killed by Russia. Video by Ukrainian journalist Andriana Kucher.

Watu wetu wa nyumbani get a rare dopamine rush from watching failed projects ya watu wanajua. So, if you have started a construction project along the highway, which automatically falls into the category of “volatile ambitions,” na ukipima vizuri, your financial future seems “shaky,” it's better ujenge indirectly through a foreman or a proxy. Then kazi yako itakuwa kupitia hapo usiku na torch to inspect the progress after everyone has left the vicinity, to ensure maximum security. Bahati mbaya, “intel” leaks kwa “ground” ati hiyo “skeleton” of a four-story rental building umeamusha hapo Hawaii, on your way to Eltret, the city of champions and conmen, ni yako, my brother wewe umeisha! Weka alarm ya 3 am and talk to God directly before others wake up na wamsumbue with their prayer requests, aendelee kulinda your source of income, because one mistake and your rivers of fortune run dry, your goose is cooked. Watu waki notice vijana wa “koroga” wameacha kuzungusha cement na sand hapo nje, you will be frog-marched to a busy market full of judgmental eyes and stripped naked, na uvalishwe boxer yako ya samosa on head for all to see. Every morning, ile Matatu moja ya Box from kwenu upcountry itakuwa inapita karibu site, the “Conductor,” who has self appointed himself as the de-facto “Crusader,” will shout your failures “for free” to anyone who cares to listen. You’ll hear him yell to the driver, “Tyar brake kidogo, kuro pichu korikai po Chemnjor kisakwan!” (Driver, kindly slow down for these passengers to have a look at those rentals of Chemnjor that have stagnated.) He will then give strict instructions for everyone to open their windows, and for those sleeping to be woken up, so they can witness the spectacle of your ugly, ambitious eyesore that you hurriedly “created” to bridge the gap between the haves and the have-nots. It was meant to be a testament to the villagers that you could mix work and play, and serve as your flagship project to demonstrate that you are a serious contender in case you decide to run for MCA in a few years. But now it stands abandoned midway due to a lack of capital, war, and other barriers to entry into new markets. Confused passengers will gaze at your “ambitious ruins” with pity as the Matatu passes by slowly, like soldiers saluting the president and other dignitaries during a parade on a national holiday at Kasarani Stadium. It's a silent salute, giving their last respects to yet another one who has joined the list of “the fallen ones.” After a brief moment of “recognizing your efforts” to redeem your entire clan, the trigger-happy “Crusader” will offer his final diagnosis of your likely problem and say in very low tones, while shaking his head in sadness, “Kipar Sherehe werone!” (Huyo Kijana alimalizwa na Sherehe!” Makutoroktoi Muren Kukotu Tich!

What an evening. What an inaugural Enhanced Games event. Honestly, if I could have scripted it, I could not have imagined a more nail-biting storyline - tension building all night, and then that unbelievable release at the end. I have to admit: I was close to a heart attack. And then I cried tears of joy when Kristian Gkolomeev won the Men’s 50m Freestyle in 20.81s, setting a new world record. He takes home a $1,000,000 bonus, a $250,000 first-place prize - and reclaims the 50m Freestyle world record. Think about what a world record actually means. It means you are better at something than roughly 8 billion other people on this planet. Let that sink in. I know some people expected us to break (many) more world records tonight. But as always in science: baseline matters. Enhancements bring out the best in you - but they are not a magic bullet. Kristian was already one of the best clean swimmers in the world - and then he added the icing on the cake to reach entirely new heights. And needless to say: the air gets thinner at the very top. Especially in the shortest events, breaking a world record has become harder and harder over the decades. And then there is the unquantifiable magic of live sport. It does not matter how good you looked in training camp. It all comes down to that one moment. A few athletes who were world-record contenders had injuries today. Others had stage fright. That is real sport. We have many more years ahead of us to break world records - one by one - and we will. We are just getting started. But world records are not even my favorite part. While breaking world records will always be one of the core themes of the Enhanced Games, what inspires me most is something else: the human drive to become the best version of ourselves. At every stage and time in life. Tonight, 22 personal bests were broken. And in many cases, these were not personal bests from last month or last year, but from many years ago. Again - let that sink in. Take Megan Romano: She set her previous personal best in the 50m freestyle (24.98) on July 16, 2013 - and tonight, nearly 13 years later, she broke it with a 24.55. She had not competed internationally in almost a decade, and at 35 years old she is now better than she was in her early twenties after only a few weeks of enhanced training. Megan defied aging in spectacular fashion and became a role model for all of us on how to age better - or maybe even how not to age at all – with the power and support of medical enhancements. Or take Emily Barclay - an athlete who had previously competed only at NCAA level. Her 50m freestyle time tonight would have been enough to win bronze in Paris. And it earned her $375,000. A true Cinderella story - made possible not by a fairy godmother, but by science. I could go on and on - and I will. Because we want to tell all of these incredible, deeply personal stories. World records are these almost mythical, elusive numbers. But winning the race against ourselves, against aging, against doubt, against the people who told us what is supposedly impossible - that is what truly inspires me. And I know it will inspire many of you too. Because Enhanced is not just a sporting event. It is a movement. A movement to help every human being become the best version of themselves. Let’s go!!!

Satya Nadella explains how he knew Amazon had not already won the cloud: 1. Sorting which markets can be won by one company is the whole job. Nadella calls being very good at understanding what are winner take all markets and what are not winner take all markets, in some sense, everything. He puts it above the technology calls he had just been describing. 2. The people telling you it is over will be credible. Nadella says that in the early days when he was getting into Azure, Amazon had a pretty significant lead, and people and investors would come to him and say, oh, it's game over, you'll never make it, Amazon's, it's winner take all. He was hearing this while committing Microsoft's money to the buildout. 3. Use the last market you competed in as evidence. Nadella says that having competed against Oracle and IBM in client server, he knew that the buyers will not tolerate winner take all. His answer to the investors came out of a market he had already lived through, not out of a forecast about this one. 4. Look at who signs the check, because that is what decides it. Nadella says structurally hyperscale will never be a winner take all because buyers are smart. When the buyer is a corporation, an enterprise, an IT department, they will want multiple suppliers, and he says consumer markets are the ones that can sometimes go winner take all. 5. Aim to be one of the suppliers they keep. Nadella's instruction is that you got to be one of the multiple suppliers. Azure did not have to displace Amazon to be worth the money, which is why the investors' framing was the wrong test. 6. Expect a free version of a closed product to appear and hold its price down. Nadella says one of the big lessons from Windows was that a closed source operating system gets a complement that is open source, and he calls that a real check on what happens. He expects the same in models: a few closed ones, and an open source alternative that makes sure the closed source winner take all is mitigated. 7. Expect governments to act once the technology matters enough. Nadella says that if this thing is really as powerful as people make it out to be, the state is not going to sit around and wait for private companies. He counts that as a third reason the category does not settle on one owner. Nadella grants the other side on the same tape. He says consumer categories can still concentrate through network effects, and he points at ChatGPT as an at scale consumer property with real escape velocity, sitting in the App Store top five whenever he looks, using an early advantage to build an app advantage. In the enterprise he expects different winners by category. What makes this usable is that he was paying for the answer while investors told him he was wrong. He looked at who the buyer was, remembered that Oracle and IBM never got to be the only supplier either, and kept funding Azure on that reading. The test only works where buyers are professionals who protect their own bargaining power, and Nadella says plainly that consumers do not behave that way.

This is a real US Army Air Corps recruiting film, the kind shown in movie theaters during World War II. Young men watched it between features, and on the way out, they were told to stop at the box office and sign up. And thousands of them did, knowing exactly how dangerous it was. This is the story of the generation that answered.. A Night at the Movies Picture the moment. A young man sits in a darkened theater in 1943, somewhere in small-town America. Between the newsreel and the feature, this film flickers onto the screen. Sleek fighters rolling through the clouds. Great bombers thundering into the sky. Men with silver wings on their chests. For a generation of boys who had grown up watching aircraft pass overhead and dreaming of flight, it was everything. The chance to fly, to serve, to be part of the greatest fight of their lives. At the end came the invitation. Stop by the box office on your way out for complete information. One famous recruiting film of the era led more than 150,000 young men to sign up to fly. All across the country, ordinary young men walked out of a movie theater and toward a recruiting desk. Farm boys, factory workers, students, clerks. Most had never flown in their lives. Many had never left their home state. They were about to enter the most dangerous skies on Earth. They Knew the Risks They did not go in blind. By 1943, the young men signing up had a fair idea of what they were choosing. They had read the casualty lists in their local papers. They knew boys from their own towns who had gone up and not come back. Word traveled. Everyone understood that flying in combat was among the most dangerous things a person could do in the entire war. The numbers behind that feeling were staggering. The Eighth Air Force, flying from England, would lose more than 26,000 men killed. That is more fatal casualties than the entire United States Marine Corps suffered in all of World War Two. For the men in the bombers, the air crews, the death rate climbed higher than in almost any other branch of the service. In the darkest stretch of 1943, only about one in four Eighth Air Force bomber crewmen completed a full tour of missions. They knew. And they signed up anyway. The Most Dangerous Skies on Earth What waited for them was a kind of combat no generation had ever faced before. The bomber crews flew in daylight, deep into enemy territory, often before long-range fighter escorts could protect the whole way. They climbed to 25,000 feet, where the air was so thin they needed oxygen to breathe and so cold, around forty below, that exposed skin could freeze in moments. And then the enemy came. German fighters slashing through their formations. Anti-aircraft shells, called flak, bursting all around them, filling the sky with jagged steel. One airman described it as being trapped in a game of Russian roulette. You were going to be hit, he said. It was only a question of where, and when. The fighter pilots faced their own trials, dueling enemy aces, nursing shot-up aircraft home over the sea, taking off again and again knowing the odds caught up with almost everyone eventually. These were boys, many of them still teenagers, doing all of this miles above the earth. They Kept Going Up And here is the thing that should stay with us. They kept going up. A bomber crew might watch the plane beside them explode, see friends fall from the sky, land with their aircraft torn to pieces, and then be told they were flying again the next morning. And they went. Not because they were fearless, but because they had a job to finish and men beside them who were counting on them. They wrote calm letters home so their mothers would not worry. They gave their aircraft cheerful names and painted them on the nose. They found ways to laugh between missions that might kill them. And when the call came, they climbed back into the cockpit. That quiet, stubborn courage, repeated by hundreds of thousands of young men, is what won the war in the air. The Generation That Answered When you watch that old recruiting film now, it is easy to see only the polished images and the confident narrator. But remember what it really was. An invitation, offered to a generation of ordinary young Americans, to step out of a movie theater and into history. And remember that they took it, freely, knowing the price might be everything. Many of them never came home. They are buried under white crosses in England, in France, in Italy, and beneath the seas they flew over. The boys who did come home rarely bragged about it. They went back to their farms and factories and families and quietly built the country we live in now. They were not born heroes. They were just young men in a movie theater, who stood up when their country asked, and answered. This was the story of the generation that answered. I post a story like this every single day. Most people never see them. Follow so you don't miss the next one.

Dalton Rushing is learning one of the hardest lessons in professional sports. Talent gets you promoted. Regulation determines whether you can stay there. Over the last month, Rushing has been thrust into a larger role while filling in for injured Will Smith. The results have been rough. Over his last 30 games, he’s hitting just .191 with a .280 OBP and .281 slugging percentage while striking out 28 times in 89 at-bats. The numbers only tell part of the story. For weeks, frustration has been spilling out at opponents and teammates, but most noticeably, at himself. Countless instances of bat snapping, helmet smashing, and head hitting have made him one to watch for all the wrong reasons. Wednesday night in Minneapolis felt like a breaking point. After the game, Rushing called his struggles “embarrassing” and said he’s a grown man who needs to figure it out for the sake of his team. There’s something admirable about that level of ownership. Some athletes never get there. The problem is that what we’re watching isn’t primarily a mental issue. It’s an emotional one. And emotions don’t live in the mind. They live in the body. The Dodgers are standing by him, but they also don’t seem to know how to help him. Dave Roberts has put an arm around him during tough moments. Veteran leaders have pulled him aside for chats in the dugout. By Dalton’s own account, his team is being supportive. However, his struggles are compounding. No amount of advice, perspective, positive thinking, or mindset coaching can resolve something that has become lodged in the nervous system. When an athlete becomes emotionally flooded, performance starts disappearing in places that statistics can’t fully explain. Everything from timing to decision-making is affected, and recovery starts feeling impossible. The system as a whole begins redlining. The ripple effects extend beyond Rushing’s own performance, too. Ohtani posted a 0.74 ERA through his first 10 starts with Will Smith catching. In his first three starts with Dalton Rushing behind the plate, that number climbed to 4.34. I’m not suggesting Dalton is responsible for all of that. Baseball is a team sport. But emotional dysregulation rarely remains contained to the athlete experiencing it. Catcher is a position built on communication, trust, rhythm, and relationship. When an athlete is stuck fighting himself, those struggles often bleed into team execution and chemistry. The ugly reality of modern professional sports is that organizations have endless technology, advanced analytics, biomechanics labs, etc., and yet little to no in-house capacity for helping athletes process what is happening inside their own nervous systems. Somatic and limbic system work gets back to the basics. It helps the mind and body stop antagonizing one another. It creates the conditions for freedom, flow, and access to hard-earned talent. What Dalton appears to need right now isn’t another conversation about mindset. He needs a way to resolve the emotional traffic jam that is preventing him from accessing the version of himself that earned this opportunity in the first place. — P.S.

WHY ARE WE STILL DOING THIS SHIT MANUALLY? I gave a desk of 8 Grok agents a simple job: find the signal, check the risk, watch the wallets, manage the exits, and send me only what actually matters. The whole setup costs around $200/month. Last week, the dashboard showed $9,300 in profit. The wild part wasn’t the PnL. It was watching the agents split the work like an actual trading desk. SEARCH hunts for fresh alpha across GitHub, Telegram and places Crypto Twitter usually notices too late. RISK goes through the ugly stuff: → Contract functions → Mint permissions → LP locks → Honeypot checks SNIPER handles execution once the setup gets approved. WHALE watches smart-money wallets for unusual accumulation. RUG monitors developer wallets and flags suspicious LP activity. EXIT manages stops and scales out as liquidity changes. SHILL tracks social momentum and separates genuine attention from obvious noise. Then there’s HEAD OF DESK. It doesn’t trade. It takes everything from the other agents, checks the flow and gives me the one decision that actually needs a human. At 5 AM, the desk sends me a briefing. I don’t need to sit there watching charts all night. The system can keep scanning while the laptop is closed, with the actual trade still requiring human approval. The setup itself is surprisingly simple: → Create the Head of Desk → Give each agent one specific responsibility → Run the workflow once while they watch → Connect Telegram + wallet webhooks No giant team. No expensive alpha groups. No spending 16 hours glued to a screen. Just a bunch of smaller jobs handled by separate agents and passed down the line. That’s the part I think people are still missing. You don’t need one AI that does everything. You need a desk where every agent has ONE job. Save the guide. Your next 4 AM trading session might look very different.

Former failed minister from Maumoon era Aneesa passionately advocating abolishing independent state institutions and parliament. And instead encouraging people to take every problem directly to King Guizzu (Gui Muizzu), as though Guizzu alone can provide all solutions. Aneesa is promoting a system where everything revolves around Guizzu’s personal benevolence and mood, weakening institutions and normalising a culture of dependency in which people are expected to approach Guizzu and ask for what they need. Aneesa becomes visibly uncomfortable when people (such as MohamedShahzan last night) raise systemic issues such as large scale corruption. Corruption refers to the misuse of taxpayer money, awarding projects to friends and family without open bidding, inflating project costs, giving jobs through favouritism instead of merit. But Aneesa does not want these issues discussed. Aneesa believes talking about corruption is making things political. Aneesa doesn’t believe giving jobs and lands to people based on personal loyalty is corruption cause thats what Maumoon did for 30 years. Aneesa also benefited massively from this. Aneesa became rich. So she wants people to bypass conversations about institutional failures and corruption and simply go to Guizzu with their personal requests. For example, rather than allowing the public to question accusations of unfair hiring practices at HDC, Aneesa’s preferred approach is for individuals to personally appeal to Muizzu and ask him for a job.
