Resident Evil Requiem has an insanely complex Easter Egg titled "The Final Puzzle", I have spent countless hours attempting to decode it. These are all my findings: MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD - I recommend reading AFTER you finish the "Rhodes Care Home" section of the game as there are some... slight spoilers here. You have been warned: This puzzle started when I first noticed that the "severed hand" that you can pick up right after escaping the basement gets a checkmark in your inventory if you finish Rhodes, meaning that it has a use SOMEWHERE in Rhodes that I missed. "The Final Puzzle" is in the challenges menu and its description says "Let the sweet pair hear the voice". My first finding was that you can actually scan the severed hand in the blood analyzer, revealing a secret message "Let's Play" and a series of letters. After consulting a doctor friend of mine, she was able to translate this into a message that simply says "GLITCH". I had no idea what to do with this but curiously, I did notice that the hourglass that you can find in Victor's office has a secret message that says "U = 380,000". Later, I noticed on the side of the blood analyzer it says "G = 150000000", and the final clue that made it all make sense was in the files, in one file about Grace's blood analysis it says "C = 4.2 ly", this was the hint I needed to crack this. I am an aerospace engineer, I recognized that ly is not any real measurement for blood or fluid, it's LIGHT YEARS. So what is 4.2 light years away from earth? The alpha centauri system, A STAR. Let's go back to "U = 380,000" so what is 380,000 km away from earth? the MOON. and G = 150000000? Applying the same logic, thats almost the exact distance to the SUN. As you are finding the quartz in Rhodes, each one is hidden behind a puzzle that has the exact Moon/Sun/Star key to unlock them, so first I checked the west wing and found nothing but going to the east wing, I freaked out when I saw that its interactable. the machine is GLITCHED. just like the original message from the blood analyzer said. So, now that I knew C = Star, G = Sun and U = Moon, I went back to the original message and noticed that RNA codon only uses a mix of the letters C, G, U and A. I decided to ignore A as I didn't have any value for it and entered the password exactly as that screen with that order, so entering "Sun Sun Star Sun Moon Star Sun Moon Sun Moon Star Moon" led to... A very, VERY creepy little girl laughing. I thought this was absolutely it for the easter egg, and that something just got activated somewhere in Rhodes but after searching the entire area up and down multiple times, I have found nothing. After finally getting the opportunity to speak to other reviewers about this mystery, I've found only about 3 people have actually gotten this far pre-launch and discovered it themselves, most were working within groups. and I seem to be the first person in the world that found the values for C, U, G, and its meanings rather than trial and erroring it. So to say it's insane that I solved it this much with no real group is an amazing feat and I am very proud of it. This puzzle is not finished, we have been looking into various codes and numbers around the game. my personal theory is that there is another code that we can enter into that machine with Sun/Star/Moon, and that the laugh is basically Capcom mocking us for thinking it would be this easy. How we get that code, I have 0 clue. The first person who solves this will earn their place in Resident Evil history, good luck continuing this hunt!show more

#ต้าห์อู๋ #Daou #Oueiija 🦖: There was a music festival in Pattaya, and I brought my Mama along. Lately, I have been bringing my Mama to work a lot. And I felt like booking the best hotel for her to sleep in, so I did. That day, she kept looking at the view from the hotel, and I saw her reaction. She said, “Mama has never slept in a hotel like this in my whole life. Mama has been working since the age of 14, performing Chinese opera to provide for the family. I never thought I’d have something like this. Never thought I’d have a beautiful home or get to ride in nice cars.” And it resonated with me, especially since Pa passed away. When Mama says things like that, (it is) true. What I had planned was just one (more) year until Pa and Ma could retire… (but) it was too late. Even if it was just one year or one day, it was too late. Success can wait for tomorrow, (but) if they are not there tomorrow, then it is too late. So, I felt like, “Hey, when can I make her happy?” To be honest, the new house that I built for her, where she can do this and that, is finished. The renovations are all done. The cats have moved in. (She?) has a role as the pillar of the house. So, I feel that the car… I had bought one before, but that time, I had to thank the fans. But this time, it came from (my own) hard work. I want it to be something that makes Mama happy. I know that I bought a car, and she can’t drive it, but I want her to see that I am starting… I want her to see that I have succeeded.

This was one of the first songs that was written for the album with Jackson Phillips, who produced a lot of it. At the start, candidly, I'd just write and see what intuitively would come out. I wrote the first verse on my birthday. One of my best friends gave me a painting and it said "Sun behind the sun." I thought that was beautiful, so I based the whole verse around that. We had a few versions of that song in particular and it was missing a part for me. One day, I sat outside and the whole chorus came to me. It became like the conversations that you still have after someone or something has passed. It becomes a form of communicating still. As I get older, it goes all the way back to square one simplicity for me. What do I love? Who do I love? What do I cherish? Who do I cherish? It's that simple for me. This is I Wanted To Stay #ORDERchaosORDER

Ethan Klein addresses the iDubbbz apology "I know why they stopped talking about us..I know we have a really good case in Canada..unironically if he had issued this type of apology like months ago I would have thought it was sincere but to do it right after u get the C&D..how am I supposed to think this is sincere..if I did think it was sincere..I'm the first person to let a grudge go, all u have to say is I'm funny..I'm so quick to forgive" "U know all these regular sh*tbags who say the worst possible things..retweeted by Hasan once or twice a month to feed the machine..I haven't seen the messages but I have seen the name and logo for this snark community..they wear it like a badge of honor..that CPS came to my house, that human skulls were sent to my house..these are the groups of ppl u spent the last year aligning with..and u know..it's hard for me to feel bad" "U sacrificed that peace to the alter of clout when u made that Content Cop..encouraged and applauded the CPS visits..justified and spent time w the community that took joy and pride in it..I mean I have to, it's just a matter of principle" "I don't wanna sue u..but at the end of the day I have made a commitment and I am the ultimate hater..I look bad, I'm ok w that bc for me it's personal..I hope that when u guys have children that ur never put in a position that upsets u as much as that upset me, I don't wish that on anyone..I wish it didn't happen to me, but it did..I know the people that participated in it..maybe they didn't make the call..they shouted them out, said they're great ppl and justified it..and I'm just following through on my promises"

Collins: Is that common knowledge about Trump trying to assist in the Epstein investigation? Have you seen any evidence of that? Crockett: That's the first time I heard of it. So I'm gonna say, no, I don't have any documentation to that effect. And I was able to sit down during the Barr deposition. And so I would imagine that he would have the information as it relates to who the informants were and that kind of stuff. And I can just tell you point blank that it never came up, that the president somehow was an informant for the FBI.

Zara Larsson accepts the Breakthrough award at the ‘Billboard Women In Music 2026’. #BBWomenInMusic “[…] I’m not new and there are so many years of hard work behind an overnight success or a breakthrough. I’ve been an artist for over a decade now but lately things have really changed for me in my life and my career. So I’ve been trying to figure out what was it that happened? What was it that made the change happen? And when I was younger I wanted to be the best so bad and the annoying part of being the best in any art is that it’s subjective and you just have to, what I learned is that you have to be the most you because only you could be the best of that.

Samuel L. Jackson explains how he landed the role of Jules in Pulp Fiction, and what it was like seeing the film for the first time on the big screen: “Pulp Fiction and I came together in a very strange kind of way. I remember auditioning for Quentin for Reservoir Dogs in New York (for the role of of Detective Jim Holdaway, Mr. Orange’s police contact). And apparently I didn't get that role. But I was at Sundance the year that he screened it for the first time. I was sitting there and I watched that movie - I was awed by it. I mean, there were people running up the aisles when Michael Madsen was cutting the cop's ear off. People were going, "Oh my God, this is horrible!" All these “auteurs” were running out of the theatre. I was like, "This is good. This is happening. This is different." So after the film, I walked up to Quentin and said, "This film's amazing, man. It's great." And he looked at me and said, "Hey! How'd you like the guy who got your part?" And I was amazed that he even remembered who I was - but he remembered me. A year or so later, I got a phone call saying Quentin Tarantino wants to have dinner with you, because he'd seen Jungle Fever and he liked that Gator character. When we had dinner, we were sitting there talking. We started talking about Hong Kong films and cartoons and foreign movies and obscure things that we watched, horror movies. We found out we liked the same kind of stuff. And he told me he was writing this thing, and he was writing this part with me in mind. He was going to send it to me. I went off to do another film. I was in the backwoods of Virginia somewhere doing a film, and the script came. A little plain brown wrapper from Jersey Films. And Jersey's got these gangster images on the logo. And it said, "If you show this script to anybody, two guys named Ernie and Luigi will come and break both of your legs." Whatever. I went, "Yeah, right." So I sat down and read it. Boom. I read this thing. It's like, "Oh my God. This is awesome." And then I said to myself, "Nobody writes a script this good. There's no way that this script is as good as I thought it was." I closed it. I opened it again. I read it immediately. Okay. This is great - If whoever produces this film lets him shoot exactly what I just read, if they stay away from it, they don't try to edit any of this stuff out - this is going to be a great film. It's going to be kind of audience-specific, because I like that kind of stuff. I have friends that I knew would like it. It was a generational kind of film. I never thought it would cross over and do all this stuff. We shot it. We had a great time doing it. And the first time I actually saw the film was at the Cannes Film Festival. That night, it screened, and I was sitting there watching the film. The audience was loving this movie, loving it. About halfway through, I realized there were subtitles at the bottom of it. So I said, "Hey, these people are reading it, and they're getting it. This might be special. This really might be something special." And actually, by the time it was over, there were tears running down my face. I was just so pleased that I was part of that particular film… I never felt that satisfied, and that kind of full about a performance and about being part of something as I was in that particular moment.” Quote comes from an Interview with the American Film Institute 2010

#TicketToHeaven #GeminiFourth #เจมีไนน์โฟร์ท Phi Aof: as for Gemini, when we read the script together, the first thing Gemini came and said was that, “since i started working, this is the character i relate to the most in my life. and i immediately understood why he is like that and i already knew how i would portray it.” (🥹👏🏻) its exactly what i said before, that it requires a lot of exchange and commitment to this role, to the point that he had to fully commit and jump very high into it. that is the maturity we feel the nongs actors have encountered through this experience

OK SO FINALLY I have a means to show you what I have been saying for a while.......Watch this clip, share it, so people understand what we are saying here!!! In this Clip, JLR© is having a discussion with Watching the World , and we get to see that front door lock!! Here is what I have been saying.....The Front door is a material called EXPANDED METAL, YOU CAN SEE THROUGH IT. The Door IS a Security Door, that you would have to cut through with two locks. A Lock that can be unlocked via a key on the handle, and a DEADbolt lock that would be locked on the inside of the door. This PREVENTS someone from being able to attack you when you OPEN the HOUSE door that is inside it, and behind this screen door. That door only opens when that deadbolt is unlocked from inside! ALso notice we see NO damage to the door or frame in this video!!

TiK ToK was the first single that I put into this world that had my voice AND my name credited!!!! I remember making it fun and happy because that’s how I felt and wanted others to feel. What I’m so proud of is that’s how this song STILL makes me feel, through it all, and those are emotions I want all of us to connect to. 15 (!!!!!!) years later, I see this song as a snapshot into the way I saw the world at the time. That girl was naive and wild and playful. This song eternalizes a side of myself that I love very much, and now see I have to protect fiercely. The world has changed so much and so have I. I absolutely love the new lyric change. (Shout out to RMJ) Yes it is permanent. I will re-record it when I have legal rights to! Now, my first baby stands for so much. It stands for fiercely protecting my fun and unadulterated joy, in myself and in others. The whole ride has been absolute insanity, but the JOY✨ is still riding. I hope you all can find 3 1/2 minutes of play in this song and connect with your wild child-like joy❤️

Garry Nolan discussing the UAP material he’s analyzed. “I have another material, the so-called Bismuth magnesium material supposedly claimed to be from Roswell.” “we have done all the most advanced analyses you could imagine on them.

This is not” Source -Robinson Erhardt 🔗 in comments Transcript 👇🏼 Garry -“I have a material from Ubatuba Brazil, a fisherman who saw an object that dropped something in partway of it dropping. It exploded all over the beach.

Hirokazu Koreeda on how he directs Children: "Interviewer: I think 'Shoplifters' (2018) is very remarkable in showing different sides of a city and like you said, people who are pretty much invisible, but I do want to also commend you on another thing, is you often work with young actors, and they always tend to have a significant role in many of your films. How do you go about finding such dynamic young actors, and why do you often put these young people at the center of each one of your stories? Koreeda: First of all, I would say that I tend to make what I would call family dramas, and of course, you have to have children if you’re creating a family, but that’s how it started, but I found that as I did it, I became really interested. It became very interesting and fun to work with these children, and for example, the two children in this film, neither of them had any acting experience at all before this film. I brought them in, and what I find when you bring these children in, and you work with them is that the adult actors change. They become much more lively and natural in the way that they act, and I guess, at some point, I realized this, and I guess, became really attracted to the idea of having children and the impact that it had. Interviewer: Do you find that there is any struggle in terms of working with young actors, or in this case, young children who have not actually acted before? Koreeda: Just to clarify, I have worked with children in many of my films, and all of them have never had experienced before. I always go out and pick non-acting children to work in my films, so just, I wanted to put that out there. In terms of the struggle, it does take time. You have to give extra time to work with these children. When I choose these children, I have an audition, and I pick out who I want to the audition, and then when we get to set, I never give them the script. No child that I’ve worked with has been given a script beforehand, and when I get to the actual part where they’re going to be acting, I give them the lines myself, and work with them and coach them. What I find is that it’s actually really enjoyable, both for them and for myself that way. I also, because I’ve been doing this now for several years, I tend to have a fairly high success rate in choosing children that are able to work with me in that way. Interviewer: That’s fascinating, and it also shows how you are able to create such authentic performances from these child actors over and over again in so many of your films. I think it’s a unique gift that you have, and it’s something that very few directors, I think, here in the United States do. Koreeda: It’s true, I guess by working with these children, I learned. I discovered that the best way to do it was just to communicate verbally their lines, rather than giving them in a written format, and over time, this really worked, and so I just kept doing it. But, interestingly, I loved the movie 'Kramer vs Kramer' (1979), directed by Robert Benton, and one time I bought the movie with all the extra, the making of and everything, and I went over it, and I found through that, that in fact, the child in that movie was also given his lines every day by the assistant director each morning when they came in to set, so I discovered that it wasn’t just me that was doing this." (Koreeda's interview with Scott Menzel, We Live Entertainment, 2018)

I discovered that the best way to do it was just to communicate verbally their lines, rather than giving them in a written format, and over time, this really worked, and so I just kept doing it. But, interestingly, I loved the movie 'Kramer vs Kramer' (1979), directed by Robert Benton, and one time I bought the movie with all the extra, the making of and everything, and I went over it, and I found through that, that in fact, the child in that movie was also given his lines every day by the assistant director each morning when they came in to set, so I discovered that it wasn’t just me that was doing this." (Koreeda's interview with Scott Menzel, We Live Entertainment, 2018)

George Lucas on how he had to reluctantly write the screenplay for 'American Graffiti' (1973) & the confidence he gained from the movie's success: "When I was doing 'American Graffiti' (1973) I was still struggling with my ‘I don’t want to be a writer’ syndrome. I had some good friends of mine that I wanted to write the screenplay, but it took me like two years just to get the money to do a screenplay. And I got a little tiny amount of money and—which I had to go actually to the Cannes Film Festival to get on my own. So finally I got this money. I called back and I said, you know, “I got the money. We can start working on the screenplay.” And they said, “Oh, we don’t want to do that now. We’ve got our own low-budget picture off the ground and we can’t write it.” I said, “Oh no.” I said, “What am I going to do? I am in Europe and I’m not going to be back for like three months and I want to get this thing off the ground.” So they recommended another student from school that I knew pretty well. I had a story treatment that laid out the entire story scene by scene, so I called him over the phone from London and I said, “Do you want to do this?” And he said, “Okay.” The person I was working with at that time as a producer made a deal with him for the whole money because there wasn’t very much. It was so tiny that he could only get him to do it for the whole amount of money. When I came back from England, the screenplay was a completely different screenplay from the story treatment. It was more like 'Hot Rods to Hell' (1967). It was very fantasy-like, with playing chicken and things that kids didn’t really do. I wanted something that was more like the way I grew up. So I took that and I said, “Okay. Now here I am. I’ve got a deal to turn in a screenplay. I’ve got a screenplay that is just not the kind of screenplay I want at all and I have no money.” And, I spent the very last money I had saved up to go to Europe to make the deal, so I had nothing. That was a very dark period for me so I sat down myself and wrote the screenplay. After I did 'American Graffiti', and it was successful, it was a big moment for me because I really did sit down with myself and say, “Okay, now I am a director. Now I know I can get a job. I can work in this industry, and apply my trade, and express my ideas on things and be creative in a way that I enjoy. Even if I end up doing TV commercials or something, or I fall back into what I really love is documentaries. I’ll be able to do it. I know I can get a job somewhere. I know I can raise money somewhere. I know I can do what I want to do.” That was a very good feeling. At that point, I’d made it. There wasn’t anything in my life that was going to stop me from making movies."

Charlie Sheen reveals his best guess is he contracted HIV during sexual experimentation with men and says he didn't have it before that specific window “Probably in that pocket of time with the experimentation with the thing, and I don't really ever say that in the book or the doc, but there's a reason in the book that it does fall into that as far as the chronology goes into that specific window into that moment.” “What gives you the confidence that it happened then?” “Cuz I didn't have it before that and then found out I had it right after that.” “But never identified the person that you actually got it from.” “No. Because it's at that point that much partying, trying to actually pin that on, and the only reason to do that would have been just as a responsible thing for others. I think the barge had moved far enough down the river at that point that it was about, oh, let's get this thing under control, you know.”

VIDEO Democratic Front (DF) president Mathias Mpuuga on #TheGrindPodcast with Patrick Kamara 933 KFM: 1. "...I am an active politician, I have moved in every inch and space of this country. I know where his [General Yoweri Museveni support is, it is not 71% it is not even 50%, and he knows it too." 2. "I am on record before and after the elections for having spoken out. I went out of my way and wrote to every political party in the opposition, warning and inviting them for a commonality of purpose...Immediately after the elections, I held a press conference spoke about the same issues, I had warned colleagues about that we never cared about and they happened. So, I feel that I am vindicated to the fact that I raised the alarm. Those who didn’t care, there is no much I could do to drag them." 3. "Also I could have raised the challenge about that election in the supreme court, but I was not a presidential candidate and I did not have permission to raise the same on behalf of any candidate. Remember that in one of the amendments that I had intended in the presidential elections act probably out of ignorance or excitement, was to amend the law to the fact that a citizen can challenge the election in a supreme court as long as that citizen is a voter and there is a proof that his challenge is not a waste of court’s time. I had intended that when that happens when presidential candidates are either compromised or timid, a courageous citizen can challenge that election. That didn’t happen, and the opportunity was lost." 4. "What have I done as DF? The DF is is going to challenge particular actions leading to that election and our petition to the Constitutional court is ready, if you want to know how we have moved and that we are not sleeping as the DF." #RealChangeActNow

I explain why the accusation that Israel is committing "genocide" is blood libel. Me: The application of the word genocide to refer to tens of thousands of war deaths is, I mean, I think it is a kind of blood libel. It's trying to import the moral opprobrium that we associate with genocide to a designated enemy, in this case, Israel. I think because I alluded to my side bias, the sides in this case being the sides that a lot of hard left critical theory has defined, namely white oppressors against everyone else's victims. Moynihan: It's pretty strong to say this is like a blood libel. Me: Well, it is a blood libel in the sense that it is an accusation of deliberate murder, ill-founded in that the, and one could disagree with Israel's campaign against Gaza, one could say that this is not justifiable, it's not a just war. It's still different from deliberately murdering as many people as possible, as in, and we know there have been genocides. I think it really is a terrible blood libel, and it's a sign of how people's moralizing in the service of demonizing and dichotomizing, dividing the world into good and evil can just flatten their ability to analyze and to think clearly.

q. is there a moment that stands out though as as far as like a song coming together that was good for you? 🐰: well, I worked a lot on this song called “hooligan” and that song itself is… I don’t know when I first heard the track, I came up with the flow immediately 🐰: *sings hooligan* 🐰: I just thought of it so I got to work, and the track is so unique, so I might have just lucked into this, but hitman bang and the rest of the members thought it was so fresh and they all loved it! that felt awesome! and I didn’t know if this song would make it but it got picked, and that rocked! 😆😆

Dear Mr. President, Greetings in the Lord. Thank you for your service to our country. As I have noted the various comments you have made about Heaven, I have felt burdened to write to you. I decided on an open letter and there are two reasons I can give for this. In the first place, you have been very open about your questions. This has been a matter of public discussion, and so I don’t feel it is out of place to address them in this way. Second, you are our president, and in this role you are in many ways our representative. I believe there are many Americans who have exactly the same questions that you do. As I write to you, I am writing also to them. And to these reasons, I might also tag on a third, which is that approaching the task this way stands a better chance of actually getting to you, which is actually the central point. I write because I am a minister of the kingdom of Heaven, and when I hear someone talking about Heaven as you have been doing, the only thing that comes to my mind is how I might possibly set out the message of Christ to you in a way that fits. How might I faithfully address the questions that you have been raising about this issue? We should want to do more than just insert the buckle into the seat belt . . . we also need to hear the click.
