@160lbs @30K Everybody is a rock star when it rains . There is no substitute for H2O . Count your blessings and put them in the bank . Or invest them wisely . Nature is something you can’t control and you can’t buy it grace.

@160lbs @30K You are finally learning. Good hybrids. Enough N and S. Notill. Probably your highest netting corn. Fungicide probably woulda paid.

@160lbs @30K You probably left 30 bushels out there by not using fungicide. 250 corn around here was below average. Too many unknowns to analyze that instant yield. What was field yield, what is CSR, how much rainfall?

Great primer on Fertilizers by Koh(・ur)aYama in The All-In Podcast (and the war’s implications for $AGRO): - 35% of the world’s fertilizers goes through the Straight of Hormuz. - China is the swing producer, with 15% of the worlds production. They just shut down exports. - At current Urea prices, planting $CORN in the US is unprofitable. AND China stopped importing corn from the US, keeping its price artificially low. US farmers in a lot of pain. - KEY: Fixing a fertilizer facility that has broken takes 3-5 years! (What happened in the middle east). Basically, the largest facility of Urea in the world will be out for multiple years. And constructing one from scratch takes about 7 years! - There is no possible excess production, every facility runs 24/7/365. With a supply shock, the only way to balance the market is to destroy demand through price spikes. Not covered on the video but worth mentioning: - Russia stopped its Ammonia exports (previous step to turn it into Urea) - Australia’s largest Urea facility is down till ~June bc of repairs. - All of Bangladesh’s fertilizer plants are fully shut Bc of supply shock and deficit in natural gas. - Financial Times reporting Urea prices up to $800/ton. Not sure where fertilizer prices normalize, but seems likely that: - They can stay higher for longer due to long lead times of bringing capacity online. - No clear top in the short term due to incredible supply/demand imbalance. - Second derivative effects will lead to higher agricultural commodity prices. $AGRO will be a beneficiary of all this. With their 1.3M metric tonnes of Urea production facility, and >250,000 acres of farmland, they will benefit from both: fertilizer price increases, and commodities prices increases. (Im always asked the same question, so clarifying it again: $AGRO has fixed production costs till end of 2027 for fertilizer. ~$200/ton. Long term contracted gas supply agreements from Argentina’s Vaca Muerta gas reservoir. Not affected by price increases in oil/gas. It all flows down directly to their margin).

Chelsea Green On her Money in the Bank fall: “Seriously, that ladder is high, it’s very high, because I think it was a 20-foot ladder — dear life as I’m going up it trying to look all like I’m a badass, and I’m like, Dear God, please let this be over. I want to go home. I need a glass of wine. But it was all worth it. I knew what that moment was going to be. I died on that hill getting that moment because the boys tried to take it away from me.” “The boys tried to have that exact same moment. So we bargained. We gave Chad Gable a spot, and I took my spot. Also, and this might not be that popular of a thing to say, but also, IYO was going to be on the ladder with me. I said no. I came up with the spot. I wanted the spot, and I didn’t think going through it a second time with somebody else was going to be as impactful....So I wanted the moment, and I fought for it to be just me, and I fought for it to be the very, very, very last spot before Tiffany won.” (Chris Van Vliet)

From risawoods_ on IG: “SHARE this with your teacher friends! If you know me personally, you know I can come up with a fun activity in no time. I had an extra 20 minutes that I didn’t know about last week and came up with this on the spot. Took no plan time and materials I already had. And the best part, my students who are learning English and my disabled students could all participate. I almost wish I kept the original audio in so you could hear how hard they were all laughing. It was the perfect way to build a classroom culture of enjoying each other and being able to make mistakes/laugh at yourself. Please steal this activity for yourself!”

But here’s where it gets truly disturbing. Lemov revealed that when the experiment finally came to light, the backlash was swift—and in some cases, tragic. “But, so this is why there was an ethical debate when the experiment was published in 2014,” she said. One user, Lemov recalled, had a chilling reaction. “And on the Facebook page of the research group that that did the experiment, at least one user wrote in saying, could I ever find out if I was in that experiment.” “Because I was in the emergency room at that time with, you know, threatening to commit suicide, and I want to know if my feed was altered and maybe that pushed me over, you know, into that that state.” There was no way to know. “Of course, they could never know and it can’t be traced backwards. And other people had a similar response.” The scandal sparked an investigation by the British government, which considered sanctions over the international scope of the experiment. “And there was even an investigation by the British government about whether this should be sanctioned because it affected users internationally,” Lemov said. But in the end, there was no accountability. “Ultimately, there doesn’t seem to have been any sanctions that came out of in anyone associated with it, is mostly promoted.” No one punished. No warnings given. And we’re all left wondering: how many more experiments are happening right now—hidden in plain sight?

'See if you can spot this one.' This was the last sentence formed by Clapton before the start of a ground-breaking rebirth of a worldwide hit, Layla. The background story is quite interesting for this rendition of Layla and it has a lot to reveal. Let's break it down together. On January 16, 1992, Clapton, along with Andy Fairweather Low, Steve Ferrone, Chuck Leavell, Ray Cooper, and Nathan East, gathered at Bray Film Studios in Windsor, England. Performing in front of an intimate audience of around 300 people, they set out to film a live concert for MTV’s Unplugged series. At the time, no one could have predicted that this recording would become the best-selling live album of all time, moving over 26 million copies worldwide. In fact, Clapton himself even bet $100 with one of the band members, confident that the album would never become popular. The key to its success? A completely reimagined acoustic version of Layla—so different and fresh that Clapton famously teased the crowd with, “See if you can spot this one.”. As mentioned, the initial goal of the concert was simply to film a TV show for MTV. However, for Eric Clapton, this also felt like the perfect opportunity to debut some of the new, deeply personal songs he had written, including Tears in Heaven. I had a need to perform these new songs about my son, and I really believed that they were meant to help not just me, but anybody who had or would suffer such extraordinary loss. The opportunity to showcase them came in the guise of an Unplugged TV show for MTV. I had been approached to do it, and wasn’t sure, but now it seemed like the ideal platform. Eric Clapton knew he wanted to include Layla in the Unplugged set, but there was a challenge: the original version required him to sing in a high range, which didn’t suit the relaxed, acoustic vibe of the concert. The energetic, high-tempo rock version wouldn’t work in this setting, so Eric came up with a solution—slow the song down and drop it an octave. I just thought I should try this as a “shuffle”. Because I love that thing of changing tempos, it’s a good way of looking at something from a different angle. Because of the key – it’s very high to sing if you do it in the “rock” version. It’s at the top of my range. Well I thought you can’t play it like that, and so you’ll have to sing an octave down. Kind of thought – we’ll actually that sounds quite nice and sort of “jazzy”. By slowing down the tempo and lowering the vocal pitch, Clapton kept Layla in its original key but tamed it for the acoustic setting. This decision not only made it easier for him to sing but also gave the song a fresh, jazzy feel that resonated with the Unplugged audience. Bassist Nathan East, who performed that night, captured the essence of playing unplugged perfectly: You can’t hide behind an amplified sound or a fuzz tone. You’re not relying on production. This is just everybody’s fingers connected to the instrument. Pure heart. Despite all of Eric Clapton’s initial concerns, the acoustic version of Layla turned out to be a massive success. Not only did audiences embrace the reimagined version, but the band members themselves thoroughly enjoyed performing it—and even listening to it afterward.

At the end of it all, Hanson explained why Democrats are acting so erratic. They’re out of moves. The only card left to play is chaos. “So I think their only strategy is just to create so much anger and hysteria and street theater about Trump that people will say to themselves, well, I don’t know who’s right. I don’t know who’s right, but I just can’t take it.” “I’m in a fetal position. I have my hands over my ears. Just make it all go away.” It’s a psychological operation…one that depends on Americans forgetting how they arrived here in the first place. “Maybe it didn’t happen until Trump came. And their attitude is, well, it was legal to break the law and bring in 10 million [illegals] and that was an easy thing to do.” “But for Trump to enforce the law, that’ll be amoral. And it’s very difficult to find the people we let in. So we’re going to stage these performance art protests against enforcing the law.” “And people with amnesia will not remember that we broke the law.” No plan. No message. Just distraction and denial.

I’ve been meaning to share here that I bought land! Growing up I vividly remember going to the welfare office with my mom. Public school, free lunches & section 8 housing made life possible. I wanted more for myself so I studied, worked my ass off, and put myself in the way of getting lucky. I pivoted into tech in my late 20’s, and was already a mom of 2 at that point. It was not an immediate up and to the right journey. In fact, my first startup failed. And it was entirely bootstrapped so I lost all the money I’d put into it. After working at other companies for some years I was ready to try again but then I nearly failed at fundraising. It was humbling to hear no after no but I just kept learning and adapting. I have always played long games and I’m willing to take a lot of pain in the short-term to realize big goals. People who know my full life story say it’s so hard to believe that I am in this position today, but it’s not by accident. I built this life brick by brick. Odds were stacked against me but I found joy in the challenge of doing hard things. Much of my success is from being pushed down and told I couldn’t make it. I love proving people wrong. Back to the land. I started dreaming of this project over a decade ago, back when I had no money to do it. But I talked about it to friends constantly like it was inevitable - because even though I didn’t know *how* it would happen, I began believing it would. Here we are and now it’s a key piece of what I want to accomplish in my next act. I want to create a place that people come to for reflection, to unwind from the grind, and to build meaningful connection to self and others. I want to host salons to discuss and debate interesting topics with the smartest people I can find. Breakthroughs will happen round a fire, while lounging poolside, and while gazing up at the stars through the trees. It took a year of searching for land but we found a spot just 1 hour north of San Francisco. It’s got some beautiful bones and infrastructure on it already but there’s a lot to imagine and build to realize the dream. Everything big starts small. So, we put up our first tree swings, hammocks and a canvas tent. 🏕️ If you’re into that kind of journey then I’ll be posting more about it on IG and may create an account just for that work. I’ve never owned land so 10 acres is an amazing canvas to create and learn on. There will be mistakes and setbacks, There always are. But I can’t wait to see what gets accomplished in the next decade! (And no, I am not quitting my job at Meta - this project is my side gig for the foreseeable future. I’m lucky to have the best guy I know focused on it full-time.) As the corporate truism goes - team work makes the dream work. LFG! 💕

It was revealed this week that 300 Male Adult Migrants came to Ireland and claimed to be minors. They had no proof of age and no way to confirm their age other than their own word. TUSLA weren't convinced but they threw them in to live with actual minors anyway. It seems the risk of breaching Migrant rights were a greater concern to TUSLA than the risk of putting adult migrants in to live with vulnerable kids. Now this Liberal Irish Woman, who heads a company that works with migrants, goes on the radio and says "it's a good thing" that male adult Migrants were put in to live with kids because the migrants can learn from the kids how to integrate into society here. She also says it doesn't matter that these migrants are adults because they have the same maturity level as the kids anyway. Her agenda is clear: No migrants in Ireland means there would be no need for her high paying job anymore. So she'll defend them to the hilt. Tusla on the other hand don't seem to give a single shit about the kids in their care. How many more years of fuck ups and disasters at the expense of vulnerable kids will be allowed before TUSLA gets put down for good?

One of the best pieces of advice I ever got in my Jiu-Jitsu journey… When I was a blue belt juvenile, some of my training partners kept saying I was using too much strength. In my mind, I didn’t think I was. My instructor came to talk to me and asked, “Bernardo, are you using too much strength?” I said, “I guess so, since everyone is saying it.” Then he asked, “Are you getting tired?” I told him, “No, I have good cardio and I have been training and lifting a lot.” He looked at me and said, “Then keep using your strength.” That advice stayed with me forever. For me, the main lesson is simple. In Jiu-Jitsu, the right thing is whatever works for you. If you are doing something and it works, do not let anyone tell you it is wrong or that you should change it. Whatever works is the right way. What are your thoughts?

A life moment I will never forget. All I’ve had for two weeks is endless criticism from the establishment. But last night, we came back from a quiet dinner out and the news came through… Suicide of a Nation is not just in the Sunday Times bestseller list for the second week running. It is now the NUMBER ONE paperback in the country. I couldn’t believe it. Number one despite relentless attacks on me and my life’s work. Number one despite the fact that no one can seem to find the book in our high street book shops. The people have spoken. It’s time to engage in the debate about what is happening to our country. Now. I’m ready, I’m not afraid. I don’t care what they call me. But I am completely humbled by the support this book has received from the British people. They tried to cancel me, but the people didn’t let them. Can we keep Suicide Of A Nation in the list for four weeks in a row? Tell your family, tell your friends, tell your enemies (!) — let’s show the establishment we never give up. Onwards we go together.

I’m ready, I’m not afraid. I don’t care what they call me. But I am completely humbled by the support this book has received from the British people. They tried to cancel me, but the people didn’t let them. Can we keep Suicide Of A Nation in the list for four weeks in a row? Tell your family, tell your friends, tell your enemies (!) — let’s show the establishment we never give up. Onwards we go together.

No wonder he's so loved—Kim Soohyun truly is the sweetest actor we've ever seen. OP shared on her IG about her unforgettable experience meeting Kim Soohyun in Milan. She's been a longtime fan of Soohyun since Dream High. Here’s her caption: "Where do I even begin? First of all, I've been a fan of Kim Soohyun since Dream High, and I still can't believe I got to see him this close! I honestly didn’t expect him to stop. My only goal was to show him my Queen of Tears album, just to let him know I’m a fan. But in the video, you can see that he was about to go inside but turned back and came directly to me to sign my album. I’m still in shock and filled with kilig every time I watch it because he’s so incredibly kind and sweet to his fans." © Kimutenshi #KimSooHyun #KIMSOOHYUNXPRADAFW25 #PradaFW25

We just past our 400th episode of Friday Night Tights. How did we make it to 400 episodes? No idea. I started doing a Friday night show around 8 years ago. Why? At the time no one was really streaming on Friday night. I figured we can review the latest movie and recap the week in pop-culture entertainment with a focus on genre. Niche of the niche. In reality it was just an excuse to hang out with my friends and shoot the shit. There were no expectations beyond that. 6 or 7 years ago we started calling it Friday Night Tights, a name that someone in the chat came up with. Then we started adding guests and hosts. No planning, no effort, no organization, and no real idea what we were doing. Nothing has changed. Sure, there might have been some controversy over the years. Nothing we really need to TACO BOUT now. Somehow we have managed to stay together, have fun, and never miss a show. I've streamed from France, Peru, and Egypt. We've had brilliant guests including Superman, Shazam, Cara Dune, Alex Jones, a former Presidential candidate, and a guy who whipped out his micro penis. Okay, that one wasn't really that brilliant. None of this would have been possible without your support. Averaging 16K-17K across YouTube and Rumble every Friday is really inexplicable, but we are grateful. It is an honor and privilege to be retarded in front of thousands of people with the full understanding that you are laughing at us, not with us. As long as you are laughing, that is all that counts. Thank YOU🙏 - The FNT crew

The Rolling Stones performing “The Last Time” on the Ed Sullivan Show. “The Last Time” was inspired by a 1955 gospel song called “This May Be The Last Time” by The Staple Singers. The Stones changed the song’s meaning, making it into a stern message to a girl. The Staples version had a more uplifting message and was much more spiritual. This decision angered many gospel fans who felt The Stones ripped it off since The Staple Singers never got any royalties from it. Since it is a traditional song (meaning no one owns the rights to it), many artists have recorded it, but The Stones was a very high-profile band that had success reworking songs by black artists into hits. Many people believe The Stones should have compensated The Staple Singers because it was based on their version of the song. In the 2003 book According to the Rolling Stones, Keith Richards wrote: “We didn’t find it difficult to write pop songs, but it was VERY difficult - and I think Mick will agree - to write one for the Stones. It seemed to us it took months and months and in the end we came up with The Last Time, which was basically re-adapting a traditional gospel song that the Staple Singers had sung, but luckily the song itself goes back into the mists of time. I think I was trying to learn it on the guitar just to get the chords, sitting there playing along with the record, no gigs, nothing else to do. At least we put our own stamp on it, as the Staple Singers had done, and as many other people have before and since: they’re still singing it in churches today. It gave us something to build on to create the first song that we felt we could decently present to the band to play... The Last Time was kind of a bridge into thinking about writing for the Stones. It gave us a level of confidence; a pathway of how to do it. And once we had done that we were in the game. There was no mercy, because then we had to come up with the next one. We had entered a race without even knowing it.”

🚨 BREAKING — PRESIDENT TRUMP CONFIRMS HE IS REFUSING TO BACK DOWN TO WEATHER, AND WILL BE SPEAKING TONIGHT "Our great veterans, especially the old timers, many of whom are there, went through HELLFIRE, and it didn’t stop them. It’s NOT going to stop us either! I’m not going to let some rain stop our 250th. I’m leaving the White House soon. God Bless America!" "I will be there no matter what, but the “what” usually turns out to be a good thing. It’s Saturday night, LETS HAVE SOME FUN, even if we are out late tonight." —— FULL TRUMP POST: "Storms bring luck to whatever the occasion. They also make events a little bit more exciting! We will wait it out, I don’t care if it’s 2:00 O’Clock in the morning, or in one hour from now. Looks like it is going to pass, they always do. I will be there no matter what, but the “what” usually turns out to be a good thing. It’s Saturday night, LETS HAVE SOME FUN, even if we are out late tonight. They say 11:00 O’Clock for the speech. Who cares??? Remember two weeks ago when the big UFC Event was at 100% chance of heavy rain, all week long, and just minutes before the card started. Well, there wasn’t a single drop, and the fights turned out to be among the greatest in history, an event for the ages.

Not long ago, I turned down an offer from a major news network. I read through the terms and realized it came with too many constraints, it was more of a control document than a partnership. So I walked away and chose a smaller outlet instead. The pay was not the same, but they treated me with integrity and gave me the freedom I cared about. No one ever controlled my speech. My mom thought I was making a mistake. She warned me that people who cling to idealism and independence in the media don’t usually end up financially secure. My dad saw it differently. He told me to go for it, decline the fancy offer and go with what I believed, he said that I had the drive to carve my own path and shouldn’t let myself get absorbed into something that didn’t fit. He’s always been in my corner. He's my best friend. I trusted that instinct and went all in. That decision gave me the space to chase my own vision in journalism, and eventually I stepped out completely on my own, no overhead, no constraints. It’s intense, almost nonstop work 24/7, but the payoff is real - I love what I do, I respect the people I work with and I get to stay true to myself. I sleep so well at night! I might not be the richest journalist out there, but I’d argue I’m one of the luckiest. I love my colleagues and I love my friends in the industry. Journalists are often hated today because of the rise of propaganda machines, but some are doing far braver work than many soldiers out there! So support the good ones, you all know who they are. Who do you want to see on the show next?

Jimin my dear YOU ALL DID AMAZING 😭 🐥: ‘ah, but honestly, I also have a lot of regrets about today. It rained so much, and originally… This time, I really wanted to try this new production, even if it meant removing some of the dance parts to make it happen. I put a lot of effort into it. But the smoke from the fireworks didn’t come out well, and there were parts that didn’t work as planned. Because of the weather, there was no wind, so normally it would have dispersed well when it appeared… that was a bit disappointing. 🐥: At the same time, while I really wanted everyone to enjoy it, I also felt a lot of worry before going on stage today. As I said on stage, it was a bit burdensome and difficult. I wanted to see it go well even more than anything…I felt like I had to perform well and repay everyone’s waiting with a good performance. So I don’t think I went on stage with a completely light and carefree heart. So if the people who came were even a little happy, then I think that’s enough. Then I think I can relax a bit and feel that it went well’

The Story Of Robber… “Yes, Robber was one of my toughest rescues. He’s about eight years old and grew up wild on Koh Samui. Locals fed him for years, but no one could ever touch him. Those same people reached out when Robber suddenly showed severe neurological symptoms — until his whole body shut down. Happy Doggo rescued him from the beach, but in the end, no one knew what to do. So I took Robber home. And that’s where it all began. It wasn’t only about healing. It was about teaching him to come back to life. Robber had a serious blood infection. His right eye was badly damaged. He was weak and heavy; his body kept cramping, and he couldn’t move at all — just lying there, trapped in himself. It was hard to work with him, but he fought through with incredible willpower. But that wasn’t the only challenge. Robber is a free spirit. He’d let me touch him, but everything in his body said he didn’t want it. He escaped twice. He tore down my doors, broke through my fence, and ran off, lost and confused, searching for home. Catching him again was exhausting — for both of us. Even with all that distance, he wanted to sleep in my bed. The vet had to remove his eye later on. Then came the final stage of healing. I did everything I could to make sure he felt safe and comfortable before I took him back home. I’ll never forget his face — that spark, that joy — when he realized where he was. Seeing him run across the fields again, proud, tail high, ears up, meeting his friends… there’s no greater happiness. It was a tough journey, for one single dog. But I would do it all over again — for Robber, and for any soul like him” ~ Sybille Morch, My Disabled Hairy Friends. Credit: Sybille Morch. Stay strong Robber 🙏. Niall Harbison

If you have high Lp(a), like me, here are 5 things you need to know to protect your heart: 1. Lp(a) is ~90% genetic. While it can be influenced at the margins (e.g. inflammation), most people have a genetic “floor.” I inherited mine from my father. Do you know yours? 2. Your genes may be fixed—but your jeans aren’t. Specifically, visceral fat matters. People with low waist-to-hip ratios, a proxy for less visceral fat, often show little to no added cardiovascular risk from high Lp(a). Why? Because Lp(a) interacts with the metabolic environment. 3. Medications matter. Statins can increase Lp(a), while PCSK9 inhibitors tend to decrease it. 4. Vitamin C may help reduce the atherogenicity of Lp(a) by working inside the lumen of blood vessels and inside artery walls 5. Ketogenic diets may also reduce Lp(a)-related risk—working inside the artery to lower inflammation, oxidative stress, and depletion of key cofactors caused by Lp(a). This is the Cliff Notes version. For the full deep dives—10,000+ words of nuance, mechanisms, and references—check the comments and stay curious.
