Sycho Sid’s entrance at the 1996 Survivor Series still gives me chills. Received a MASSIVE pop from the New York crowd despite being a top heel that year. He just had that look. One of the most natural, raw, and intimidating big men ever. RIP Sid.

This is the most shocking non-tender I think I’ve seen so far Tim Elko had a very solid year at the AAA level slashing .292/.357/.552 while popping 26 💣 & 70 RBI Only given 72 PA at the big league level and still has not cracked his 6 years of controllable service time 🤔🤔

🚨 NASA: ASTEROID IMPACT RISK DOUBLES—BUT HEY, NO NEED TO PANIC (YET) NASA now says asteroid 2024 YR4 has a 3.1% chance of hitting Earth in December 2032, up from 1.3% just weeks ago. While still low, NASA’s Davide Farnocchia admits a 2%+ impact risk is rare—so, yeah, they’re paying attention. The space rock is 130 to 330 feet wide, big enough to flatten a city if it hits. A similar-sized asteroid in 1908 wiped out 1,250 square miles of Siberian forest—so, not exactly a scratch. NASA has until April to fine-tune its trajectory before the asteroid disappears until 2028. The Webb Telescope will scan it using infrared tech to estimate its exact size—because knowing how big the thing is before it (maybe) hits would be nice. For now, Earth is still safe—but with a Torino scale rating of 3 (most asteroids rank zero), astronomers aren’t shrugging this one off. Source: ABC News

Big news at the new Optimus 10m/y factory construction site today! The 1st steel structure has been erected & as expected the second phase of land reclamation is underway. This will allow this new factory to grow to nearly the same length as the main Giga Texas factory, although it will be a few hundred feet (~50 - 70 m) narrower. If you did not realize the massive size of this new factory, this should tell you all you need to know! A lot of steel beams & columns were being delivered to the site today and using the new staging yard in the nearby “lone tree” field. Check out this short clip showing the expansion, the steel structure & more of the foundation work!

Recently asked Coach Roberts about being a “win now” team while still developing younger talent, like Sania Feagin and Ta’Niya Latson: Essentially, the Sparks are focused on pursuing a championship and not development. “I think every team in the league wants to win now,” said Roberts. “But we also recognize we’re in LA and we’re one of the original franchises. I didn’t come to LA to rebuild or do some slow thing. I know KP [Kelsey Plum] didn’t, and Nneka [Ogwumike] didn’t. Our front office has that in mind as well in terms of getting players that will help us win now, but are also the right fit for what we’re trying to do and how we’re trying to play. I think we’ve done a good job of that. To your point about balancing with the young guys, a lot of the work in developing young players isn’t seen. It’s with our player development staff, our coaching staff; they get coached up a lot. It’s just a hard league to break into, it really is. But we believe in those guys, and we’re going to continue working. Their numbers will get called, and it’s a matter of them staying ready. They’ve done a great job at that, but they’re completely invested. Their work ethic is great, their buy-in is great, so everyone’s journey is different. Sometimes it takes a little bit to break in and sometimes it’s right away. That’s what went into it.”

🇨🇦 isn’t collapsing. It’s splitting in two. Young 🇨🇦 now rank 71st in happiness globally while those over 60 are still in the top 10. That gap didn’t happen by accident. Housing became the economy. Older generations built massive wealth just by holding assets, while younger 🇨🇦 are locked out unless they have high incomes or family support. Youth unemployment is pushing ~15% and nearly a million young people aren’t in work or school. But there’s another layer underneath this. Labour supply has surged. The TFW program has expanded far beyond seasonal work into retail, service, and even parts of white-collar jobs. At the same time, higher-value roles are being offshored. More competition, fewer quality opportunities. That’s not just stagnation, that’s pressure on wages and on the future. And yet 🇨🇦 still has everything most countries don’t. Resources, talent, world-class universities, a top-tier AI ecosystem, deep institutional capital. On paper, this should be a powerhouse economy. The problem isn’t what 🇨🇦 has. It’s how it’s being run. If that gap gets addressed, this story flips fast. If it doesn’t, the divide only gets worse.

🚨 Dimitar Berbatov slams Elliot Anderson’s reported £100M valuation amid Manchester United interest ahead of the summer transfer window: 🗣️ “I’ve heard Manchester United are looking at Elliot Anderson and I can understand the interest. He’s energetic, technically good, works hard and has shown real personality in the Premier League. But £100 million? Come on. That price is absolutely crazy. We are talking about a talented young midfielder, not a player who has dominated football for five or six years. This is what is wrong with the modern transfer market. Every time a young English-based player has a good season, the price doubles overnight. I like Anderson, I really do. I think he has the qualities to play for a club like Manchester United. He has intensity, confidence and looks like someone who enjoys responsibility. But there is a huge difference between being a good player and being a £100 million player. Manchester United have made mistakes before by overpaying for potential. If the club believes in him, fine. But paying anything close to £100 million would be madness. For that kind of money, you should be buying one of the best midfielders in world football, not a player who is still proving himself.” {TNT Sports }

🇷🇺 According to Russian media and local publications, a “semi-covert” mobilization has already begun in Russia: ▪️ Men are being detained directly on the streets, pulled out of cars, and forced to sign contracts with the Ministry of Defense. 📍 In several regions, the detention of men on the streets has begun. 📍 According to Russian news channels, people are being pulled out of cars and taken to military commissariats, where they are forced to sign contracts with the Russian Federation’s Ministry of Defense. 📍 According to reports, local authorities have received a plan to recruit several thousand new servicemen. 📍 It is reported that similar raids are taking place simultaneously and on a large scale in several cities across the country. These reports indicate a significant escalation in coercive recruitment methods as Russia struggles to compensate for massive losses on the front and the increasing pressure from Ukrainian long-range strikes. The “semi-covert” nature allows the Kremlin to avoid an official full mobilization while still attempting to bolster its forces.

With all due respect, 2005-2006 Kobe is the best player I have ever seen (Didn’t see Jordan’s young prime live). The Lakers wasted Kobe’s best years and he still got 2 more RINGS post-Shaq. 35PPG on mostly Jump Shots AND 1ST TEAM ALL DEFENSE. The biggest threat from all 3 levels of the floor of all time. Watch these highlights. All bottoms of the net this is crazy. Kobe was still in his young athletic prime and the game came easy to him. And his skill this year peaked at an all time high which the league has never seen in its history considering his threat from 3Pt range. Just insane offensive production. A machine. You have to be totally locked in to move like this. No one can “decide to do this”. This happens when athletic peak meets all time skill. 80 games -56 times scoring 30+ -27 times scoring 40+ -6 times scoring 50+ -2 times scoring 60+ -8 times with 4 consecutive 30pt games -5 times with 5 consecutive 30pt games -3 times with 8 consecutive 30pt games -7 times with back to back 40+ games *Long video but it should be an hour long this year was MADNESS 🤷🏾‍♂️ Point totals for each month (Thread)

Jordan Peterson revealed the uncomfortable truth about what women really desire in men: 1. Women don’t just look for a man they love. They look for a man they can respect, rely on, and build a future with when life gets serious. 2. A strong woman doesn’t want a weak man she has to carry. She wants someone who can stand beside her, challenge her, and still make her feel safe. 3. The more successful a woman becomes, the smaller her dating pool gets. Not because success makes her unattractive, but because her standards naturally rise with her own level. 4. Highly accomplished women don’t intimidate men on purpose. But their intelligence, ambition, beauty, and status can make most men feel like they have no chance. 5. Men are more afraid of rejection than women realize. When a woman looks like she already has endless options, many men don’t even try. 6. Women often look across and above their own level. They naturally desire men who are equal or higher in confidence, competence, maturity, status, or stability. 7. No woman wants to build a life with a man she has to parent. She wants support because marriage, children, and family demand a man who can carry responsibility. 8. Men and women experience time differently in dating. A woman near 30 may think seriously about children, while a man of the same age may still feel he has years to decide. 9. A young woman is often valued immediately. A young man usually has to build himself before the world starts paying attention to him. 10. That’s why men are forced to develop depth. They build skill, confidence, money, personality, discipline, and status because looks alone rarely carry them. 11. A real man is not just older, richer, or dominant. He is emotionally stable, mentally strong, and capable of making a woman feel protected without controlling her. 12. Modern dating is painful because desire is not politically correct. People can say whatever they want, but biology, age, ambition, status, and attraction still shape choices. 13. The hard truth for men is simple. Don’t complain about women’s standards. Become the kind of man who can meet them. 14. The hard truth for women is also simple. Success gives freedom, but it can also shrink your options when you expect a man above your level. 15. Peterson’s point is not that men or women are wrong. It’s that attraction has rules, and ignoring those rules creates confusion, resentment, and loneliness.

🇦🇹🔴Arabs in Austria are creating UK-style grooming gangs targeting underage girls and turning them into sex slaves. In many cases, the girls are ending up dead. A psychiatrist who has worked with these underage prostitute victims says the girls give the same story: "They were approached at Salzburg Main Station by young men of Arabic origin." They are recruited with drugs, hooked on them, and then forced to perform sex with clients while being filmed for blackmail material. "Under severe drug influence, they would then often be sexually abused." Girls as young as 12 are being targeted, and it is not just the city of Salzburg. 🔺In 2025, 7 minors died from drug overdoses, just in the city of Vienna. 🔺In recent weeks, three girls between ages 13 and 16, have suffered drug overdoses in the city of Innsbruck. Most of these girls are recruited from rural Austrian towns, where there are still young White girls available to recruit. The victims are then transported to bigger cities like Vienna, where they rent out apartments and sell the girls to Johns and gang r*ped by Arab men.

Syracuse’s William Kyle III is one of the best Big Man Prospects in this year’s NBA Draft. For the season Kyle averaged 8/7/1 along with 2.5 BPG and 1 SPG, while also shooting 66% from the field. Kyle also led all High Major players in Stocks per game with 3.5. Standing at 6’9 with a 7’3 wingspan and a 44 inch vertical Kyle has the tools and frame you want from an elite defensive big in the NBA. Kyle’s mix of elite athleticism, rim protection, defensive versatility, offensive rebounding, finishing, and motor is all of the traits teams are looking for in their rim running bigs in Kyle is one of the best in the class in all of those areas. On the defensive end Kyle uses his length and athleticism to be a highly impactful rim protector who also doesn’t foul which is extremely rare. He’s also versatile enough to play in a lot of different defensive systems and he's also versatile enough to switch onto smaller players. Kyle is also a high level help defender and uses his agility to make quick decision plays on the defensive end. Offensively he’s a very efficient rim runner who’s a strong screen setter, lob threat, while also being able to push in transition. He’s great at positioning himself for dunks where he finished with 59 this season. Kyle is also an efficient long dunking finisher where he shot 66% on layups. Kyle is also a solid passer for his archetype and has the ability to make plays in short roll situations. Kyle is one of 3 players since 2008 to have a BLK% of 9, a STL% of 2, make 50 dunks or more, while fouling under 3 times a game per 40, joining Brandon Clarke and Anthony Davis as the only other players.

‼️‼️🇷🇺🇺🇦 BIG | Ukraine has just struck a crippling blow to the heart of Russia's domestic economy, turning the Kremlin's civilian logistics networks into a high-stakes battleground. A series of precision Ukrainian drone strikes systematically dismantled four massive Wildberries distribution centers—totaling nearly 600,000 square meters—in less than a week. While Kyiv identifies the "Russian Amazon" as a critical node smuggling dual-use electronics and drone components into the defense industry, Moscow insists these are strictly civilian hubs. The strikes killed at least eight workers, injured dozens, and sparked widespread panic among Russian sellers after the e-commerce giant invoked force majeure to dodge billions of rubles in liability for destroyed inventory. By targeting the backbone of Russia's online retail infrastructure, Ukraine is exposing a critical vulnerability: the deep integration of civilian supply chains into state-sponsored military procurement.

‼️‼️🇷🇺🇺🇦 BIG | Ukraine has just struck a crippling blow to the heart of Russia's domestic economy, turning the Kremlin's civilian logistics networks into a high-stakes battleground. A series of precision Ukrainian drone strikes systematically dismantled four massive Wildberries distribution centers—totaling nearly 600,000 square meters—in less than a week. While Kyiv identifies the "Russian Amazon" as a critical node smuggling dual-use electronics and drone components into the defense industry, Moscow insists these are strictly civilian hubs. The strikes killed at least eight workers, injured dozens, and sparked widespread panic among Russian sellers after the e-commerce giant invoked force majeure to dodge billions of rubles in liability for destroyed inventory. By targeting the backbone of Russia's online retail infrastructure, Ukraine is exposing a critical vulnerability: the deep integration of civilian supply chains into state-sponsored military procurement. This offensive leaves the Kremlin facing a severe dilemma—force private enterprise to swallow billions in uninsured war losses or expend vital air defenses to protect commercial warehouses instead of frontline positions.

THE "CONSISTENTLY PROFITABLE" SKILL GAP & THE MYTH OF SUPPLEMENTAL INCOME FROM TRADING For many new traders or part-time traders, there is this pervasive belief that with some time and effort, they'll be able to make "just" a few grand per month to supplement their income. Or they "don't want to aim big, they just want to replace their current salary via trading so they can have more freedom." This is because people mistakenly believe that trading is like most other jobs, rather than it being a winner-take-all performance endeavor more akin to becoming a professional athlete. 99.9% of athletes will never make a dime professionally. There is no market demand for your average high school or college player. To even make league minimum in the NBA, you are still in the .0001% of basketball players. There is no such thing as just deciding to casually make a few grand as a pro athlete. Think about what it takes for someone to make $50k/yr as a golfer? The skill gap to earn an income or make the league minimum is crazy to comprehend. The analogy I gave with AT09 was the story of Brian Scalabrine. Even though Brian Scalabrine “sucked” in the NBA, he would absolutely annihilate 99.9% of the people calling him trash. He once said the famous line that he’s closer in skill to LeBron James than his haters are to him, and that line perfectly explains trading. The gap between unprofitable and elite looks massive from the outside, but the real canyon is between unprofitable and making any amount of money consistently. People look at a trader making $1M a year and think that’s a different species. They assume someone doing $100k a year is basically the same as the guy still blowing accounts, just with better luck. That’s like saying Scalabrine and your friend who plays pickup on Tuesdays are basically equal because neither is LeBron. Going from $0 to consistently profitable is the hardest jump in trading. You CANNOT just casually make a few grand per month or supplement income part-time. The skill level needed to consistently make ANY AMOUNT trading is the equivalent of being in the league. A trader who can pull $100k a year out of the market is not “kind of good.” They have competency in finding edge, executing trades, handling their psychology and risk management, and are competing in the league. From there, scaling to $300k, $500k, even $1M is usually a function of size, capital, and refinement, not a complete identity shift. But the trader still stuck at breakeven or red? They’re not one tweak away from $100k. They’re not “basically there.” They’re still trying to prove they belong on the court at all. The uncomfortable truth is this: the distance between $0 and $100k is far greater than the distance between $100k and $1M. One requires becoming a professional. The other simply just requires becoming a more refined one. My confidence in taking a trader from $100k to $1m is probably 10x higher than my confidence in taking a trader from $0 to $100k.

Karam Hamié wrote on FB: On the Sidelines of the “Generations of Sayyed” Scouting Gathering organized by Hezbollah in Lebanon today, in what became the largest scouting assembly ever recorded worldwide, Lebanon, a small nation by size but not by spirit, hosted a historic event marking the anniversary of Sayyed Hassan Nasrullah's martyrdom. It was also the most extensive scouting activity in Lebanese history, and arguably in the Arab world. More than 74,000 members of the Imam al-Mahdi Scouts from across Lebanon took part, representing nearly every age group except the youngest. The level of discipline, coordination, and precision in their performances impressed observers, underscoring the strong sense of purpose and organization among these youth. Many families even covered the costs of transportation and uniforms themselves, a gesture that spoke volumes about their commitment. Despite operating with limited funding and volunteer staff, the Imam al-Mahdi Scouts managed to pull off a massive, meticulously organized event, one that many well-funded institutions could hardly match. It highlighted the group’s capacity for mobilization, strong leadership structure, and deep community trust built over decades. The event came just days after Lebanon’s General Security Directorate reportedly foiled a Mossad-linked plot, uncovering explosives intended for attacks during the public gathering of Sayyed Hassan Nasrullah's martyrdom anniversary on September 27th. Yet, in a striking act of resilience and defiance, thousands of Lebanese families still chose to send their children, transforming their participation into a powerful message of courage in the face of fear. The gathering also marked the 40th anniversary of the Imam al-Mahdi Scouts, an organization that has persevered through wars, sanctions, and social upheavals. The event’s message was unmistakable: you can destroy buildings and weapons, but you can’t destroy the spirit of a generation that refuses to surrender. Unlike many local NGOs accused of profiteering, mismanagement, and political opportunism, the Imam al-Mahdi Scouts have remained grounded in community service, maintaining their credibility and grassroots connection while steering clear of Lebanon’s typical cycles of corruption. Interestingly, the Lebanese mainstream media chose to ignore the massive gathering, despite routinely covering smaller, less significant NGO events. That absence, however, may have served as its own form of validation: “Generations of Sayyed” stood out as a rare example of integrity, untouched by the influence of money-driven media or political favoritism.

Been watching a lot of footage of 2028 QB and now Alabama commit Charles Scott Jr. According to 247 in 2025 the 6’5, 255 lb sophomore threw for around 3,600 yards and 41 TDS on 178 completions. Only throwing 4 INTs!!! Scott Jr (son of his high school coach) has obvious massive upside given his size. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that already as a sophomore, he has an SEC build. The Good: - Kid is LARGE, much like Alabama’s recent five star commit Elijah Haven, Scott’s size allows him a full view of everything going on around him on the field. Mechanics benefit from his size - strong throwing platform. - Flashes plenty of natural strengths, including an explosive arm that doesn’t seem to have to work very hard to push the ball vertically. - Even as a developing HS quarterback, Scott Jr already shows a lot of finesse. Accuracy in highlight tape (provided below from Scottboyz on YouTube) is on the upswing, especially on layered and touch passes. - Although not technically a massive run threat, Scott Jr, given his size, can stress defenders on the ground, especially in short yardage situations. Areas for Refinement: - Shows promise with timing routes, but will get better as he matures over the next couple of season. - Mechanics are not fully polished as to be expected from a young QB, but raw traits still shine. Footwork under pressure! - Will grow into faster processing speeds as he continues his path. Will need this as he makes the talent jump to the SEC. All-in-all, this is a rising recruit in the 2028 class - one that will garner a ton of attention over the next several months, especially now that Alabama fully seated at the head of the table. Another potential eval masterclass from Kalen DeBoer, Ryan Grubb, and Bryan Ellis. The scheme fit for Scott Jr is perfect at Alabama. The size and arm talent are there, with touch on the way. Combined with intangibles such as high football IQ (coaches son) and a very strong relationship with Tide staff - this is a solid pickup for Alabama. The QB position remains in great hands moving forward in Tuscaloosa.
