“Super Freak” was written by Rick James and Alonzo Miller and recorded for James’ 1981 album Street Songs. James improvised much of the song’s original lyrics during the recording, while Miller later toned them down and received co-writing credit. The track also features backing vocals from members of The Temptations along with Canadian singer Taborah Johnson. Released as a single in 1981, “Super Freak” became Rick James’ signature song, reaching No. 16 on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 3 on the Hot Soul Singles chart, and No. 1 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart. Its legacy grew even further in 1990, when MC Hammer built “U Can’t Touch This” around its instantly recognisable riff. James and Alonzo Miller were subsequently credited as co-writers of Hammer’s song, which won two Grammy Awards in 1991. “Super Freak” was not James’ highest-charting Hot 100 hit, “You and I” reached No. 13, but it became by far his most enduring recording.

For the second straight year, an album I heard in March blew me away, and ran away with this title. The Red Herring for 2024 ALBUM OF THE YEAR GOES TO… Boundaries’ “Death Is Little More” 💿Released: March 29 Top 3 tracks: 🎤Easily Erased 🎤Turning Hate Into Rage 🎤Darkness Shared I loved a LOT of records this year. I really did. But this record has finished as my album of the year by a wide margin. Boundaries is yet another band that I’ve seen grow over the years from a little Connecticut band, to now being on some MASSIVE tours. They are a band essentially built for me. Their breakthrough to me, was 2022’s “Burying Brightness.” That was their spring board that really helped them find their sound. And after they learned to walk, THIS album has them SPRINTING. This is one of the most aggressive records of the year, and it’s admirable but what I love most is the touches of melody they have now spread throughout the record. Songs like Easily Erased and Scars on a Soul are two that feel like they could have been standard boundaries song, but those small touches thrown in have made them into masterpieces. Blames Burden featuring Markus Vik from Invent Animate sees the band taking a somewhat new direction too, and really comes with a surprise left hook towards the end of this album, just when you thought you had it figured out. The classic Boundaries sound, combined with these new touches have made for an outstanding album worthy of being worn like a badge of honor by the members of this band.

Lauren Grandcolas was pregnant with her first child on 9/11 when she was m*rdered, along with 39 others on Flight 93. She was flying home from a funeral and, as she'd arrived at the airport early, she was bumped to the earlier flight 93, already targeted by hijackers. Her Jack husband has said that was the first time she'd ever been early for a flight. Flight 93 was delayed and the last to be hijacked, resulting in a revolt by passengers who were well aware of their fate otherwise. Grandcolas called her husband Jack and left a message (below) that there was a "problem with the plane" before the final fight between the passengers and the 4 hijackers. Hijacker pilot Ziad Jarrah tried various maneuvers to knock the passengers off balance, one hijacker was likely k*lled by the passengers as per audio only heard by officials and family members. The last words on the recording are of the hijackers deciding to crash the plane with two of them yelling "Allah Akbar" as they drove the flight into the ground in Pennsylvania. Lauren Grandcolas was 38 and 3 months pregnant when she was m*rdered by Muslim t*rrorists Ziad Jarrah, Ahmed al-Haznawi, Ahmed al-Nami and Saaed al-Ghamdi on September 11, 2001.

To further enunciate our plans for the Murtala Mohammed International Airport (MMI) in Lagos, let me further clarify the approval we secured from the Federal Executive Council Meeting last week. 1. There are two international terminals in Lagos. Terminal One is that old building directly facing the long stretch of road leading to the airport built & commissioned in 1979 by the Obasanjo-led Military regime. It has two wings known as WING D and WING E. Terminal Two is the new building on the right-hand side as you drive into the airport, started by President Jonathan’s govt. with a Chinese loan, completed during President Buhari’s govt (with the loan) & made operational during President Tinubu’s first one month in office. 2. Due to years of neglect & because the traffic over time quadrupled beyond its capacity, the building & facilities at Terminal One became totally decrepit. We have been engaged in some patch jobs over the years just to make it a bit presentable. Now, shorn of all the rhetoric, what we simply want to do is to totally strip down that building, including the entire roof (leaving only the carcass), then re-design/reconfigure it & build a brand-new airport for the nation to meet modern, international standards that can also cater for the increased traffic. Both wings D and E would be affected. 3. As for the new Terminal (Two), we got approval to expand the building and the Apron (where aircraft park for boarding and disembarkation) in order to accommodate more aircraft, including wide-body aircraft. That is not all; we are constructing two new independent ring roads in and out of the airport (one for departure and one for arrival) and a bridge that will take travellers directly to the upper floor of Terminal Two Departure lounge, instead of lifting our luggage up the escalators when we are departing. It is a design error we intend to correct. 4. We have also introduced smart solutions to the new designs in order to deliver a smart airport to Nigerians that can compete with any airport in the world. 5. In all, Nigerians will be proud of what we are going to deliver. And take note, this will not be done by a loan from anywhere, but by the Renewed Hope infrastructure Development Fund, which is one of the gains made from the removal of subsidies. 6. As the work progresses, we will be inviting the Press, Civil Society groups, members of the National Assembly and interested Nigerians on regular tours of the facility to monitor the extent and quality of work. It is part of our national heritage and we should all rightly be interested in the final outcome. 7. I will also encourage our compatriots to simply google the cost of most modern airports built around the world in the last few years (including those in Africa like Angola, etc) and you will agree with me that the Bureau for Public Procurement that scrutinised and fixed the final cost of this project did a fantastic job for the nation. 7. And as a final word, it is important to tell Nigerians that we also have brand new Terminals in Kano, Abuja & Port-Harcourt. However, presently, they are all underutilised due to the traffic that is less than thirty percent of their capacities. 8. For further explanation and transparency, we have produced a video (which I attach hereunder) that graphically explains the proposed works upon which we are embarking. I hope you find it useful. Thank you.

Heads need to roll.. 🚨The CDC Held a Secret Meeting, known as ‘Simpsonwood’, after a Study showed the Hepatitis B Vaccine was Causing Autism in Children • A study was conducted, comparing babies who got the Hepatitis B Vaccine (loaded with mercury, Thiomersal) within the first 30 days to babies who never got it at all.. ⬇️ 🔴 WHAT THEY FOUND WAS SHOCKING! • The CDC’s own data containing the medical records of 100,000+ children, showed that a mercury-based preservative in the vaccines known as, Thimerosal, was responsible for a dramatic increase in autism and a host of other neurological disorders among children. —— speech delays —— attention-deficit disorder —— hyperactivity —— Autism ⬆️ For comparison, the relative risk of developing lung cancer from smoking a pack of cigarettes a day for 20 years, is 10…. But if your child was vaccinated with the Hepatitis B Vaccine, the likelihood of your child developing autism was 11.35! 🔴 THE CDC PUSHED THE PANIC BUTTON • The CDC held a secret meeting, later to be known as “Simpsonwood”, with top government public health officials, all major agencies (FDA, CDC, NIH, WHO, HHS), as well vaccine manufacturers, including GlaxoSmithKline, Merck, Wyeth and Aventis Pasteur. —— There were ZERO public announcements of the session, only private invitations. • The CDC was afraid the meeting would be subjected to Freedom of Information Requests (FOIA)… so In June 2000, they gathered everyone for a meeting at the isolated Simpsonwood Methodist retreat conference center in Norcross, Georgia, along Chattahoochee River, to ensure complete secrecy. 🔴 BUT SOMEBODY RECORDED THAT MEETING… • RFK Jr got ahold of those transcripts in 2005 and says, —— “it’s horrific! It’s a nightmare! They looked at the science and said it’s 100% bulletproof, WE ARE CAUSING AUTISM!” • Instead of taking immediate steps to alert the public and rid the vaccine supply of thimerosal, the officials and executives at Simpsonwood spent most of the next two days discussing how to cover up the damaging data. According to transcripts obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, many at the meeting were concerned about how the damaging revelations about thimerosal would affect the vaccine industry’s bottom line. 🔴 COMMITTEE INVESTIGATION • Despite clear evidence from their own mouths, a Senate Committee investigation found these claims to be “unsubstantiated”… from individuals who had clear financial ties to the industry. —— Dr. Sam Katz, the committee’s chair, was a paid consultant for most of the major vaccine makers and was part of a team that developed the measles vaccine and brought it to licensure in 1963. —— Dr. Neal Halsey, another committee member, worked as a researcher for the vaccine companies and received honoraria from Abbott Labs for his research on the hepatitis B vaccine. —— The House Government Reform Committee discovered that four of the eight CDC advisers who approved guidelines for a rotavirus vaccine “had financial ties to the pharmaceutical companies that were developing different versions of the vaccine.” • Rep. Dan Burton, oversaw a three-year investigation of thimerosal and found there was a coverup and vaccines with Thimerosal caused autism —— “Thimerosal used as a preservative in vaccines is directly related to the autism epidemic,” his House Government Reform Committee concluded in its final report. 🔴 FAST FORWARD Since 1991, when the CDC and the FDA had recommended that three additional vaccines laced with the preservative be given to extremely young infants — in one case, within hours of birth. The estimated number of cases of autism has since increased fifteenfold, from one in every 2,500 children to one in 36 children. When President Trump took office, shortly thereafter appointing RFK JR, these vaccines no longer contain mercury — which is a victory from God.

WAQF (AMENDMENT) BILL, 2024 My Enthusiasm: The British enacted the Mussalman Wakf Act, 1923 for the better management of wakf property and for ensuring the keeping and publication of proper accounts in respect of such properties. After independence, the Waqf Act, 1954 was enacted but the earlier Act was not repealed. In 1995 a new Waqf Act was enacted repealing the 1954 Act. There was not any significant difference between the Acts of 1954 and 1995, as the latter was essentially a consolidation of several State amendments and judicial pronouncements. In March 2005 the UPA Government headed by Manmohan Singh appointed a seven-member high-level committee which was headed by Rajinder Sachar, a former Chief Justice of the Delhi High Court, with Sayyid Hamid, M.A. Basith, Akhtar Majeed, Abu Saleh Shariff, T.K. Oommen and Rakesh Basant as its members. It is popularly known as the Sachar Committee. Based on one of the recommendations of the Sachar Committee, the UPA Government introduced the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2013 to amend the Waqf Act, 1995. It must be noted that the BJP enthusiastically supported the Bill and voted for it in Parliament. Consequent to the amendment, the Waqf Act became one most of draconian laws that India has ever enacted whereby any property can be unilaterally claimed by Muslims as waqf, and its owners can be disposed of it. It has been widely reported that the Muslims have been claiming villages after villages as wakf properties and thereby creating havoc. Therefore, the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2024 introduced in Parliament by the RSS-BJP-Modi Government is a welcome step, and I wholeheartedly endorse it. The Bill has since been referred to a Joint Parliamentary Committee headed by former CM of UP Jagadambika Pal. I sincerely hope and wish that it becomes an Act sooner than later. My Skepticism: A large number of Hindu refugees from Pakistan and Bangladesh who escaped to ‘Hindu India’ and their progeny, are not only HINOs (Hindus In name Only) but they are virulently Anti-Hindu and Pro-Muslim. They are worse than the Islamic Jihadis as they camouflage as Hindus while working for Islam. Rajinder Sachar’s family too came from West Pakistan to ‘Hindu India’ to escape religious persecution by Muslims. Yet, his ideological proclivities were mostly Anti-Hindu and Pro-Muslim. Therefore, it would be apt to categorise him as a Crypto-Muslim. Sachar Committee submitted its Pro-Muslim, nay Anti-Hindu, Report in November, 2016. Its reading would reveal that the demands of the Muslim League prior to independence that led to partition of India, would pale before the recommendations of Sachar Committee. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Sachar Committee has planted seeds for the 2nd partition of India, nay fast-tracking of Islamisation of India. Out of 76 recommendations of Sachar Committee, the Government accepted 72, rejected 3 and deferred 1. Most State Governments, including all the RSS-BJP State Governments as well as the Gujarat State Government headed by Narendra Modi as CM, have vigorously implemented and been implementing the Sachar Committee recommendations since 2017 onwards. Yet, the RSS-BJP never missed an opportunity to publicly criticise the Sachar Committee Report to fool gullible Hindus. After 6 years of vigorous implementation of the recommendations of Sachar Committee and favouring Muslims as their daamads (sons-in-law) in every which way by (mis)using secular public funds, and just before General Elections to Lok Sabha which were due in 2014, in August 2013 the Narendra Modi headed Gujarat State Government challenged its constitutional validity in Supreme Court again to fool gullible Hindus. The RSS-BJP-Modi Central Government has been implementing the Sachar Committee Report with the fervour of a new convert to Islam. Consequently, #Minority_Appeasement in the past 10 years of RSS-BJP-Modi rule has reached Himalayan heights putting all other parties to shame. Further, in the past 10 years, with the zeal of a Jihadi the RSS-BJP-Modi Central Government has been vigorously enforcing the draconian provisions of the Waqf (Amendment) Act, 2013 which were incorporated into the Waqf Act, 1995 with the proactive support of BJP in Parliament👇. As a result, the number of immovable properties held/claimed by the Waqf Boards skyrocketed to humongous 8.7 lakhs. A Google search says that Waqf Boards are the 3rd largest land holders in India after the Government and the Christian Church. The credit for this notoriety goes entirely to the #PseudoHindutva RSS-BJP-Modi. With a lot of pomposity the RSS-BJP-Modi Central Government introduced the Prohibition of Child Marriage (Amendment) Bill, 2021 in Parliament on 20-12-2021. I welcomed it except for the proposal to increase age of marriage. It was referred to a Select Committee headed by Vinay Sahasrabuddhe, and it is not known whether it gave any report. However, due to Muslim pressure the RSS-BJP-Modi deliberately delayed its passing as a result the Bill lapsed due to the dissolution of 17th Lok Sabha. Thus they gave a quiet burial to an important Bill that sought to reform marriage of all religious communities which would have a bearing on the differential growth rates of population. Given the unsavoury background and the Pro-Muslim and Anti-Hindu penchants of the RSS-BJP-Modi, I do not see much hope of the Wakf (Amendment) Bill, 2024 becoming a law. If it does become a law, then all praise to RSS-BJP-Modi. #WaqfAmendmentBill_2024 #WaqfBill2024

With a lot of pomposity the RSS-BJP-Modi Central Government introduced the Prohibition of Child Marriage (Amendment) Bill, 2021 in Parliament on 20-12-2021. I welcomed it except for the proposal to increase age of marriage. It was referred to a Select Committee headed by Vinay Sahasrabuddhe, and it is not known whether it gave any report. However, due to Muslim pressure the RSS-BJP-Modi deliberately delayed its passing as a result the Bill lapsed due to the dissolution of 17th Lok Sabha. Thus they gave a quiet burial to an important Bill that sought to reform marriage of all religious communities which would have a bearing on the differential growth rates of population. Given the unsavoury background and the Pro-Muslim and Anti-Hindu penchants of the RSS-BJP-Modi, I do not see much hope of the Wakf (Amendment) Bill, 2024 becoming a law. If it does become a law, then all praise to RSS-BJP-Modi. #WaqfAmendmentBill_2024 #WaqfBill2024

1. Chief Obafemi Awolowo was Premier of Western Region 70 years ago in the 1950s and he died nearly 40 years ago. Till today you can point at 100-year Chief Reuben Fasoranti, 92-year old Prof Banji Akintoye and many other alive as one of his followers There are thousands of people that we can list. 2. Asiwaju Bola Tinubu left Lagos as Governor nearly 20 years ago. The members of his cabinet, his mentees and many people like Mr. Babatunde Fashola who have been closely following him since 1990, we can name hundreds of them still around if you ask. They are still with him. 3. Ogbuefi Peter Obi left Anambra as Governor 12years ago. Today we see only Mama Pee, Randy Peters, Aisha Yesufu etc around him with a handful of riotous IPOB idiots online Peter Obi is now 65 years old. He told us he has been in business from his student days at UNN and built his house as a student. He was a trader since 1986 or so and he was so successful that he already bought a house in the UK for £1,000,000 in the 1990s. He is an importer of everything and the ogidigba of "business". He was Chairman of a whole Bank and he was Governor of State for 8 years. Please, is it a crime or an act of corruption for a man to have MENTEES or LOYAL AIDS who will stand by him for 30 years and even forever ? How did this man manage his life that he couldn't have ONE MAN known with him as a MENTEE or someone to whom he was a benefactor that would be sticking to him like flies. Not even his own WIFE AND CHILDREN are seen to be glued to him like loyal flies. They are struggling not to be seen as avoiding him. How???? The two men, Willy Obiano and Charles Soludo who came after him as successors, especially Obiano who he personally nominated and emplaced, will not openly identify with him. Is Obi such a SAINT that he can't find one CLEAN PERSON in Anambra to stick with him for 20 years??? Where are his CHILDHOOD FRIENDS and former "APPRENTICES"? Even at my level I can still boast of many loyal friends of over 40 years that I can mobilise around me anytime not to talk of my wives and children! Obi has raised more than enough red flags, it will take only insincere people to claim they are not see these flags. #YorubaRonu #ThinkYorubaFirst © Adedamola Adetayo 13 September 2026

MAKURDI, BENUE: After listening to sources on the ground, Naija Confra reports that Vikings started the clash in Wadata. A few days ago, an Aye teacher in an adult school in Makurdi got a tip from his Vikings student about a planned attack in Wadata or North Bank. The teacher warned his group, but while some took it seriously, others ignored it. (3 videos posted on Telgrm - link in comments section). Yesterday, Vikings attacked first, k!ll!ng two Ayes, Black 7 and Spider, at the Wadata riverbank (first video). Spider was a well-known Aye. In response, Aye launched attacks today, leading to more de@ths. The situation is now very tense, with both sides on high alert. The video we posted earlier (second video) was labeled “unconfirmed report.” We will not call the men in that video Ayes because we don’t know their names. Vikings claim they are NBK/Aye, but we won’t call them cultists without proof. Our goal is to avoid misidentifying innocent people. Once we verify their identities, we will update the NC house to confirm whether they are truly Ayes or Vikings or non-cultists. While Ayes were rolling, they unexpectedly saw Zico T, a former Vikings leader, and k!lled him. They later attacked some alleged Vikings (third video), but we can only confirm one victim, Oyi Tramol, as a Vikings member. The identity of the other person remains unknown as his face is not visible. So far, we have identified 2 Ayes (Black 7 and Spider) and 2 Vikings (Zico T and Oyi Tramol) among the dead, with many more de@ths reported on both sides. Both groups are planning more attacks, with Ayes in North Bank reportedly targeting Ude Street tonight. The government and police must act fast.

PCG DEPLOYS VESSELS AND AIRCRAFT TO BAJO DE MASINLOC IN RESPONSE TO CHINESE HARASSMENT Following reports of harassment by Chinese Coast Guard vessels and the Chinese Maritime Militia against Filipino fishermen on March 17, the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG), in close coordination with the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR), has immediately deployed surface vessels to Bajo de Masinloc (BDM). The mission is to ensure the safety and security of Filipino fishermen and to deliver essential support, including fuel subsidies, ice, and food packs. Fishermen who witnessed the incidents have documented dangerous maneuvers by Chinese Coast Guard vessels 21605, 3107, and 3103, as well as Chinese Maritime Militia vessels. These actions included the repeated use of sirens and the launching of Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats (RHIB) specifically intended to drive Filipino fishermen away and prevent them from exercising their legitimate right to fish in Bajo de Masinloc. This morning, PCG Commandant Admiral Ronnie Gil Gavan directed the deployment of a PCG aircraft for a Maritime Domain Awareness flight over BDM. The flight confirmed a significant presence of both Filipino fishermen and Chinese maritime forces in the area. The aircraft documented the five (5) Chinese Coast Guard vessels, three (3) People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) vessels, and two (2) Chinese Maritime Militia vessels. It also verified the presence of more than twenty (20) Filipino fishing boats operating in the vicinity of BDM, along with the continued presence of yellow buoys installed by China since last year. During the flight, the PCG aircraft actively challenged the illegal presence of CCG and PLAN vessels in Philippine waters. Notably, this was the first time a People’s Liberation Army Air Force asset challenged a PCG aircraft. The aircraft further documented the PCG and BFAR surface vessels currently en route to respond to the ongoing Chinese aggression. The Philippine Coast Guard remains steadfast in upholding President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s commitment to ensuring the safety and welfare of Filipino fishermen. Despite the challenges posed by China’s numerous larger vessels, the dedicated men and women of the PCG stand resolute in their mission to safeguard our sovereignty, sovereign rights, and jurisdiction in the West Philippine Sea peacefully in accordance with national and international law including the Philippine Maritime Zones Act, UNCLOS and the 2016 Arbitral Award.

$This 40-micrometer single-celled organism with zero neurons … hunts, kills, and eats other living creatures using nothing but microtubules and geometry. Lacrymaria olor is a freshwater ciliate found in ponds worldwide and one of the most ferocious predators in microbiology. At rest, it’s a teardrop barely visible to the naked eye. When hunting, it launches a neck-like proboscis up to 30× its body length — 1.5mm in under 30 seconds — whipping it through the water in violent, snaking arcs to locate and strike prey by contact alone. No eyes. No chemotaxis. Pure mechanical search-and-destroy. 1.Anchor. Attaches its rear to debris via adhesive secretion. Body stays planted. 2.Deploy. Head cilia activate. The neck rockets outward along a helical microtubule scaffold, unspooling stored membrane like origami unfolding. 3.Sweep. The neck whips, bends, and buckles through 360° in rapid stochastic bursts — covering ~66% of its strike zone in ~93-second hunting events. 4.Strike. Mechanoreceptor cilia on the head distinguish food from non-food at the instant of contact. 5.Kill. Toxicysts — venom organelles armed with polyketide synthases and L-amino acid oxidases — fire on contact, paralyzing the target. 6.Engulf. The oral apparatus swallows the prey whole via phagocytosis. Sub-second. 7.Reel. The contractile myoneme system hauls prey back through the neck to the cell body. 8.Digest. Enzymatic breakdown in food vacuoles. ~15 seconds. 9.Reset. The neck retracts, repleating its origami perfectly. Rest. Hunt again. Prey: Cyclidium, Tetrahymena, Chilomonas, Halteria, Vorticella, flagellates, amoebae. If it encounters something too large to swallow — Blepharisma, Stentor — it tears chunks out of them. If the neck tip hits debris — instant ciliary reversal and full contraction. Retreat. If the neck tip hits prey — toxicyst discharge, amplified ciliary beating, engulfment. Commit. Two opposite behavioral programs, selected and executed at the point of contact, in a fraction of a second, by a cell with no nervous system. No neurons. No synapses. No action potentials. In 2024, Flaum and Prakash at Stanford published on the cover of Science.. The cell’s membrane is wrapped by 15 stiff helical microtubule ribbons — a cortical cytoskeleton unlike anything in any other known organism. These ribbons form a curved-crease origami. Membrane tucks into precise pleats between ribbons, storing enormous surface area in compact folds. Microtubule sheets spool in multiple layers inside the cell body — nested like a compressed helical accordion. When the cell hunts, the origami unfolds. When it retracts, it refolds. Deployment is controlled by topological singularities — d-cones and twisted domain walls — that act as geometric controllers. The structure can only unfold one way and refold one way. Deterministic deployment from pure geometry. Everything pre-stored, pre-folded, topologically locked. Beneath the microtubule scaffold: a contractile myoneme network of centrin-myosin fibers using unconventional Plasmodium-like actin. The two systems are antagonistic. Cilia pull the neck out along the microtubule rails. The myoneme contracts it back. The tug-of-war across timescales generates the full behavioral repertoire. Neither system alone produces the behavior. It emerges from their coupling!!$

Destiny 2 left a permanent mark on my life. The memories I’ve made with this game, both as a player and as someone lucky enough to work on it, will forever stay with me. Not just because of late nights running King’s Fall with friends, or grinding out the Crucible Glorious Seal in solo queue like a complete maniac, but because Destiny 2 challenged me, shaped me, and pushed me toward becoming the creative I am today. My journey into digital art and photography started back in 2007, when I began taking screenshots in Halo 3 and entering Bungie community art contests. The relationships I built during that time eventually opened the door to an opportunity with Bungie’s Gameplay Capture team in 2014, helping the team capture footage for a new game called Destiny. I had no idea then that a commendably short two-week contract would turn into an incredible 12-year journey with this franchise. I originally came to Bungie hoping to pursue environmental concept art, but along the way I had the opportunity to work on marketing art and quickly fell in love with it. Creating marketing art for a franchise like Destiny challenged me in so many different ways. It forced me to expand my technical, creative, and communication skill sets, constantly adapt, and keep learning new tools and workflows just to keep pace with the live-service beast that was Destiny 2. It means a lot to be able to look back and say with confidence that I had a visual impact on Destiny 2; but the most meaningful part of it all was getting to work alongside and learn from so many incredible artists at Bungie, and seeing firsthand just how much care, effort, and humanity it takes to make work like this possible. It’s hard to fully capture how much energy, skill, and collaboration goes into every visual part of a game like Destiny 2. That work is shaped by artists from different backgrounds, experiences, disciplines, and perspectives. Each of them, including me, left a small part of themselves in what they created. To me, that’s what makes a game like Destiny 2 feel truly meaningful and memorable. Especially now, in a world increasingly saturated with content and driven by instant output and gratification through AI, I keep coming back to the value of process. For me, and for so many of my peers, it was never only about arriving at the final image. It was about the journey it took to get there. The late nights. The iteration. The problem-solving. The trust. The shared pursuit of trying to make something special. To my peers, I’m deeply proud of what we built together, but even more grateful for how we built it. We challenged each other, inspired each other, and kept showing up for one another through every high and low, as Destiny 2 has had many. That kind of shared effort leaves a lasting mark. What we made mattered. What we gave mattered. And the impact of what we built together will stay with us, and this community, for a long time. Shoutout to the current and former members of Creative Studios, the VizD team, and the many Bungie developers and marketers who helped shape this chapter of my life. I’m especially grateful to the teammates who believed in me, encouraged me to embrace failure and new beginnings as essential parts of artistic growth, and pushed me to take on challenges even when they felt beyond my reach. You showed me that the strength of a team will always surpass that of any individual hero. As my work on #Destiny2 comes to a close and I look toward the future, I plan to spend the next few weeks sharing some of the pieces I had the chance to create or art direct that mean the most to me. For now, I’ll leave you all with a collage of some of my personal favorite pieces to work on across Destiny 2’s lifetime. These projects mean so much to me because many of them started as personal passion projects or late-night concept sketches, inspired by playing early builds of Destiny 2 and by the incredible work of our development team.

That work is shaped by artists from different backgrounds, experiences, disciplines, and perspectives. Each of them, including me, left a small part of themselves in what they created. To me, that’s what makes a game like Destiny 2 feel truly meaningful and memorable. Especially now, in a world increasingly saturated with content and driven by instant output and gratification through AI, I keep coming back to the value of process. For me, and for so many of my peers, it was never only about arriving at the final image. It was about the journey it took to get there. The late nights. The iteration. The problem-solving. The trust. The shared pursuit of trying to make something special. To my peers, I’m deeply proud of what we built together, but even more grateful for how we built it. We challenged each other, inspired each other, and kept showing up for one another through every high and low, as Destiny 2 has had many. That kind of shared effort leaves a lasting mark. What we made mattered. What we gave mattered. And the impact of what we built together will stay with us, and this community, for a long time. Shoutout to the current and former members of Creative Studios, the VizD team, and the many Bungie developers and marketers who helped shape this chapter of my life. I’m especially grateful to the teammates who believed in me, encouraged me to embrace failure and new beginnings as essential parts of artistic growth, and pushed me to take on challenges even when they felt beyond my reach. You showed me that the strength of a team will always surpass that of any individual hero. As my work on #Destiny2 comes to a close and I look toward the future, I plan to spend the next few weeks sharing some of the pieces I had the chance to create or art direct that mean the most to me. For now, I’ll leave you all with a collage of some of my personal favorite pieces to work on across Destiny 2’s lifetime. These projects mean so much to me because many of them started as personal passion projects or late-night concept sketches, inspired by playing early builds of Destiny 2 and by the incredible work of our development team.

Every single person involved needs to face Nuremberg trials and if found guilty they need to hang. If this Doctor knew this and used a single ventilator that killed someone THAT IS MURDER! The fact he didn't tell the WORLD the moment he was told makes him an accomplice to mass murder. Doctors KNEW the Remdesivir and ventilators were killing people, but the hospitals were getting tens of thousands of dollars per COVID death. They were getting paid a fortune to MURDER PEOPLE. Families couldn't stop it because they weren't allowed to see them. Some families did try to sneak HCQ in or Ivermectin to save the lives of their family members that the Doctors were trying to kill. I personally know someone they murdered. President Trump approved what he had, which included HCQ. He said, on video, that he wished people could have HCQ. He said we have stockpiles of it and there have been good results. He said the numbers with Remdesivir and ventilators were not good. Us ANONs tried desperately to share the TRUTH with the world only to have our social media accounts permanently banned. So let me try to share what I tried to share that caused 5 of my Twitter accounts, 3 of my Facebook accounts, countless TikTok Tok and Instagram accounts, and my YouTube account to be permanently banned. I also did a 20 minute interview with Spectrum News from El Paso when we were in Conroe Texas for a Trump rally January 2022. I read them the article in AP Virology dated August 22, 2005, which is Fauci's NIH's publication. The article stated that HCQ was the cure and vaccine for all corona viruses and SARS. IT stated HCQ was both prophylactic and therapeutic. Meaning it could be used to keep people from getting COVID in the first place. Fauci knew that they couldn't get an Emergency Authorization with a known cure. He also knew that Ivermectin could cure cancer. Think of it, people taking Ivermectin all over the world and curing their cancer, without chemo, that was created from mustard gas. Fauci's wife did the Emergency Authorization. They switched out what President Trump had and put out a QUACKZINE with LUCIFERase. They wanted us DEAD and if not dead they wanted LUCIFER running through humanity's veins. African countries take HCQ to keep from getting malaria and in Uganda, a country with over 49 million peop/le, only 19 died of COVID and probably just because they didn't take HCQ. They needed the plannedemic to steal the 2020 election and to try to achieve their United Nations AGENDA 2030 to decrease the human population to 800 million people by the year 2030. I told Spectrum News, out of El Paso, all of this, and much more, but they didn't share that, which is why the media is truly the enemy of the people. They only aired about a minute of what I said. Just enough to try to make me look like a crazy poor loser. They shared almost the same amount of time airing a gay German man that was pissed because President Donald J. Trump was in the neighborhood. YES THE MEDIA IS THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE AND MANY PEOPLE DIED BECAUSE SPECTRUM NEWS REFUSED TO SHARE THE TRUTH I TOLD THEM JANUARY 2022! Us ANONs tried desperately to EXPOSE the TRUTH. Our families and friends abandoned us, call us crazy conspiracy theorists, told us we were selfish, ANONs lost their jobs, were denied entry into public places, denied travel, denied a seat at the table for holiday dinners, we have been denied being part of our grandchildren/'s lives. I love you Ellie! Maybe your Mom and Dad will UNSTUPID themselves soon, but until then I pray God will protect you from poisonous QUACKZINES. THAT'S YOUR MICKI REALITY CHECK OF THE DAY FOLKS! TIME TO WAKE THE FUCK UP PEOPLE! I'M ALL IN FOR KEN PAXTON!
