Gorakh Hill; the name of the most astonishing place in Sindh where fresh air provides the visitors with the matchless fragrance. One can talk to the sky there and preserve the unforgettable memories. I, Culture, Tourism, Antiquities & Archives Dept, GoS , have been striving to enhance tourism in Sindh since Inception. And, I literally found Gorakh Hill as one of the best places in Sindh that must be visited by every individual. During my tenure, different huts have also been made available in order to make a convenient environment. I truly believe that a beautiful place heals the wounds and Gorakh Hill possesses the ability to make you feel love. It is a place where one feels as if the heaven is under one's feet as well as over one's head. An incredible, majestic, amazing, marvelous, spectacular, and Mind-blowing place it is!

CAYENNE PEPPER: THE MASTER HERB This clip comes from an early 80s lecture by Dr. John Christopher, one of the most influential herbalists of the last century. He shares the story of an 8-year-old boy who was accidentally shot by his brother in the bowel and spinal cord. The bullet had entered his body and exited from two different spots so he was bleeding heavily when a neighbor rushed over. She gave him a tablespoon of cayenne immediately, even before calling 911. By the time emergency services arrived, the bleeding had stopped. The surgeon later said he had never seen such a clean wound cavity with so little blood loss. This is why herbalists have respected cayenne for generations. Cayenne is known for supporting healthy circulation, and helps move blood efficiently through the system. And in this case and traditionally it has been used in emergencies to stop bleeding. Dr. Christopher often referred to it as a master herb. Modern medicine has its place. But there is something powerful about remembering the plants our ancestors kept close in urgent moments. This is why I always keep cayenne in my home. It is one of those foundational herbs I think every household should understand. ✨🙌🏾💫

🚨 SICK. VILE. DISGUSTING. 🚨 A PEACEFUL Facebook user FROM KERALA named “Kaippadi Ansari” allegedly shared an AI-generated deepfake video showing world leaders, including President Trump, SPITTING on PM Modi’s hand — followed by Modi wiping it on his face.🤬😤 The video was paired with vulgar commentary designed to humiliate and degrade the Prime Minister of India. An innocent interview clip of Indian cricketer Harleen Deol "What's Your Skincare Routine," was twisted and used as a cover to push obscene insinuations about the Prime Minister. This isn’t political criticism.. This isn’t satire.. This is targeted character assassination using AI-generated disinformation. Imagine the outrage if such a deepfake had been made about any other world leader. ?? No matter your politics, deepfakes, fabricated content, and vulgar personal attacks should have no place in public discourse. Share this maximum. Let the whole country see what is being circulated in the name of “free speech.” We need complaints flooding in from every corner of India. Make it impossible for the system to look away.

I am very excited to announce I will be assisting in an unofficial AI scan of photographic plates from The Hale Telescope of the Palomar Observatory via CalTech to help identify “vanishing star” phenomenon. This work was motivated by amateurs and staff members by the work of Dr. Beatriz Villarroel, an astronomer at the Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics, leads the VASCO project, which systematically compares historical photographic plates from observatories such as Palomar and Harvard with modern sky surveys. Her core question was whether stars or star-like objects can simply vanish. By examining pre-satellite-era images, she identified thousands of anomalous transients—point sources that appear on one plate and are completely absent from later exposures or deeper modern catalogs, with no conventional astrophysical explanation such as supernovae remnants or known variable stars. Among the most striking discoveries were multiple simultaneous transients that appeared and disappeared within the roughly 50-minute exposure time of a single plate. One notable case involved nine star-like objects clustered in a small region of a 12 April 1950 Palomar plate that never reappeared, even in far deeper modern images. Even more remarkable were events tightly timed with the famous 1952 Washington, D.C. UFO wave: a bright triple transient captured on 19 July 1952 and another highly significant candidate on 27 July 1952, both falling on the consecutive weekends of intensive radar, pilot, and ground sightings over the capital. Villarroel and her colleagues interpret many of these transients as possible solar reflections (glints) from flat, highly reflective metallic surfaces in high Earth orbit. Because the plates predate Sputnik 1 by several years, no human-made satellites existed at the time. Supporting this idea is a statistically significant deficit of such flashes when the putative objects would have been inside Earth’s shadow, where they could not reflect sunlight, along with elevated rates of transients near dates of atmospheric nuclear tests and reported UAP events. These findings, published in peer-reviewed journals including Scientific Reports and Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, challenge the long-standing assumption that all such plate anomalies are mere defects or contamination. While individual cases remain difficult to confirm, the overall patterns—spatial alignments, temporal correlations, and shadow avoidance—suggest a genuine population of short-lived, reflective objects that may represent non-terrestrial artifacts monitoring Earth during a period of intense nuclear activity. We will hope to use my AI model to establish a baseline of field surveys from the facility plates and to have a high confidence parallax. This all will take place on “off time” as it is not officially endorsed. I will give updates when permitted. I am certain this will be an interesting use for AI and we will get robust results. Here is my award wining friend, George Knapp and one of the best shows on broadcast television Mystery Wire, full show is here: George discusses the “vanishing stars” phenomenon…

✨Gal Gadot is such an inspiration✨ Here's her speech from the ADL conference this week. “My name is Gal and I'm Jewish and we have had enough of Jew-hatred. Never did I imagine that we would witness such a day of such death and destruction of Jews in our lifetime. And never did I imagine that on the streets of the United States and different cities around the world, we would see people not condemning Hamas, but celebrating, justifying, and cheering on a massacre of Jews. I know I'm not the only one in this room when I say that this was a wake-up call. Here's the thing. However much you try to avoid it before, even if speaking up wasn't really your thing, none of us can ignore the explosion of Jew-hatred around the world anymore. We will confront antisemitism, we will call it out but we will never let it not only defeat us, but define us, because our love is stronger than their hate. October 7th showed us that what happens to Jews anywhere affects Jews everywhere. And this goes both ways. Not only what happens there affects us here, but what happens here affects them there. So here we are in this room together calling for the release of every single one of our hostages. We have to bring them home. With every hostage release we hear new testimonies of the horrors they've been through. Every minute for them is hell. Their lives are in danger and we need them home. We want the hostages and their families to know that we have your back, that we are here for you. And we need them to know that wherever they go in the world where there's a Jewish community, they will always find people who campaigned for them, who love them and who will never let them walk alone. Because this is who we are and this is who we will always be, taking responsibility for each other. Along with my husband Jaron, we're bringing up four daughters to also be proud of who they are, to take responsibility, to love themselves. Rabbi Hillel famously said, אם אין אני לי מי לי If I'm not for myself, then who will be for me? And if I'm only for myself, then what am I? So even if we don't hear others speaking up for us, we have to keep speaking up for ourselves and reaching out our hands to everyone to join in. That is what I tell my daughters. First, learn to love yourselves, who you are and where you're from, and then the rest will follow. It's time to pass on to our children a love of who they are. So, who are we? We, the Jewish people, are an ancient people with an ancient story in an ancient homeland where our roots run deep and where we are an indigenous people. We work to see better and more peaceful future. We challenge hate when we face it, but we do it with love, while always striving to make the world a better place. And who am I? My name is Gal and I'm Jewish. Am Yisrael Chai. Thank you.”

Once upon a time, in the shadowed halls of Topkapi Palace, there ruled a sultan whose name was Ibrahim the First. He had inherited an empire of gold and silk, yet his heart burned with a single, insatiable craving. From the moment he took the throne, Ibrahim the First desired only women of magnificent size, round, soft, and heavy beyond measure. No slender beauty could stir him; only those whose bodies overflowed with abundance held his gaze. His mother, the cunning Kösem, understood her son’s strange hunger. She scoured the slave markets of Constantinople herself, selecting the plumpest virgins and delivering them to the harem like precious gifts, hoping their curves would keep him content and her power secure. But Ibrahim the First was not satisfied with what she brought. One day he summoned his viziers and cried out, “Search every corner of my realm! Bring me the fattest women alive, women so vast they can scarcely pass through the palace gates!” His agents obeyed. They combed the streets, the villages, the distant provinces, measuring and weighing every woman who caught their eye. Those chosen were carried to the palace in litters, fed the richest foods, bathed in rosewater, and draped in the finest silks until their bodies grew even more splendidly heavy. Night after night, the sultan walked among them, his eyes shining with delight at the sight of so much royal abundance. In his court, beauty was no longer measured by delicate waists but by generous hips and arms that could cradle an empire’s worth of dreams. And so it was that Sultan Ibrahim the First, the one they later called the Mad, transformed his harem into a living legend, a place where women were not merely kept, but gloriously, deliberately fattened up for the pleasure of their sultan alone. That is the tale of Ibrahim the First, the Ottoman who made the women of his court the heaviest wonders the world had ever seen.

#WATCH | Delhi | After resigning from his post as a Rajya Sabha MP and from the primary membership of AITC, Sukhendu Sekhar Ray says on the RG Kar murder and rape incident, "Power had gone to their (TMC) heads to such an extent that they believed no one in the world could touch them." He says, "For the first time in Bengal's history, a BJP government has come to power in West Bengal... Voter turnout hit an all-time record of 97 or 98%... No analysis was conducted by the party regarding this. Those who held power over the last fifteen years, ministers, panchayat leaders, councillors, mayors, and so on, became inaccessible. It was difficult to even approach them. They had lost touch with the ground reality. Our party workers who strengthened the organisation with their blood and sweat, those who fought against the Left Front for years, were sidelined. Instead, middlemen, thieves, dacoits, and rapists came to the forefront. All of this is now coming to light and being shown on television. Who owns the biggest house in the village? The panchayat leader. It has a swimming pool, exotic birds, and so on... Crores of rupees were looted. That is why I am making a demand now. I am a common citizen now, and I can demand of the new government that they investigate the purchases made by every hospital in Bengal over the last five years... A forensic audit should be conducted... Incidents of rape and murder have occurred frequently in our country. There is nothing more heinous than this in society... The impact of the RG Kar incident wasn't limited to just that place... As soon as the RG Kar incident occurred, the public poured onto the streets. People who had never in their lives joined a procession or a public meeting, and who had no connection to politics, even they, including doctors, stayed out on the streets all night long... At that time, the leaders and administrators did not engage in any deliberation or discussion about it. Power had gone to their heads to such an extent that they believed no one in the world could touch them. But the very people who sent them there have now brought them down... There should be an investigation into everyone's assets. Investigate ministers, panchayat leaders, national leaders, or international leaders. Investigate them all..."

For the last 2 weeks I went on a road trip to MA, NH, VT & a couple cities in Canada. What I witnessed was the exact opposite of what’s happening in LA/California -Nearly 0 homeless visible -Clean/safe streets -Beautiful, inviting public spaces (not defaced) -NO empty stores -No burned down cities Splash pads that children could safely use because they weren’t being used as a toilet/shower by homeless. Public transit that you can ride without fear of being killed or mugged or injured. Retail centers bustling with people. No trash outside of actual trash cans. Street festivals that run into the night in urban areas. See my video of a PUBLIC space in Montreal - GORGEOUS spaces, luxury seating (for anyone to use!), not a scratch. Pristine. Beautiful. No bums loitering, shooting up, taking a dump in public, assaulting people or blocking entrances to stores. My kids were in SHOCK! “How’s this possible?!” they would repeatedly ask. I had to tell them. This is what I remember about California from my childhood. We used to have it. And they’re GASLIGHTING us into thinking it’s impossible. That the world has changed. NO Gavin Newsom the world has NOT changed. YOU and your criminal cronies have DESTROYED this great place. Nowhere else in the planet has experienced such rapid and monumental decline. YOU OWN THIS. Can we have what others have? Absolutely. Vote ALL of them out and replace them with people who actually give a damn. And don’t blindly trust an “R” — if they’re corrupt (in bed with developers or other scammers) stay away. We need good HONEST people in office. Enough is enough.

Oda started using ChatGPT in February 3 years ago and, half-jokingly, asked it for advice on story development. After Oda once dismissed ChatGPT’s suggestion as boring, the following exchange took place. [ChatGPT🧡] My apologies. Let me propose a more interesting story direction. When the captain and his crew arrive at a new island, they realize that an unknown presence has boarded their ship. It turns out to be an alien being with an extraterrestrial appearance. The alien explains that their home planet was destroyed by an evil spaceship, forcing them to flee to Earth. After hearing the alien’s story, the captain and crew decide to defeat the evil spaceship. However, the enemy is immensely powerful, and the captain and his crew struggle in battle. At that moment, the alien reveals that a “Shard of the Star,” essential for restoring their planet, lies deep within the island. However, this shard is guarded by a witch who lives there. The captain and crew head to the witch’s cave together with the alien. The witch intends to use the Shard of the Star herself to restore the alien’s planet. The captain and crew attempt to negotiate with the witch, trying to persuade her to hand over the shard to the alien. The witch refuses and launches an attack on them. To defeat her, the captain, the crew, and the alien join forces and confront the witch in battle. She is formidable, and they struggle, but ultimately they emerge victorious. After the battle, the alien obtains the Shard of the Star and begins restoring their planet. However, they have not forgotten that, in order to fully rebuild their world, the evil spaceship must still be defeated. As they watch over the alien’s efforts to restore their planet, the captain and crew resolve to set out once again on a new adventure to defeat the evil spaceship. In the end, the captain and crew assist the alien and support the restoration of their planet. The alien then departs from the ship and returns home. How do you feel about this kind of story development? In this version of the ONE PIECE world, aliens appear, and the captain and crew help them. With fantasy elements such as witches and evil spaceships, readers would find the story refreshing— [Oda💪] Thank you! I’ll draw it exactly like that!😍😍 [ChatGPT🧡] You’re welcome! I’m looking forward to it as well. Please feel free to reach out anytime if I can be of further help!

Finally video emerges of an actual Ukrainian attack in Toretsk, two weeks after their supposed ninja counteroffensive kicked off... or is it?⬇️ I'm referring to this video, which was published Wednesday, showing the destruction of two AFU M113s withdrawing troops from a southern suburb of Toretsk (Zabalka) that basically all mappers had placed well inside Russian lines (video 1, see figure 3 for the map). Video emerged later that day of Russian infantry destroying an apparently Ukrainian-held house in the same area with a satchel charge after suppressing the defenders with an RPG and small arms (the first segment of video 2). Interesting, I thought. So I looked at the map again, harder. And then I looked at the geolocated positions of Russian units, which the TG channel Creamy Caprice keeps a map of (figure 3, showing the location of the first video - the red and blue dots mark Russian and Ukrainian positions logged over the entire course of the battle). And that's when it struck me - Russian troops have never been spotted in the northwestern corner of the Zabalka district. They've been seen in the central part and they've been seen around the slag heaps, but not the northwest corner. And there's a relatively short route into it through the Ukrainian-held forest to the northwest, although the last mile is through an open field around the base of (and dominated by) the nearby slag heap. It would be an extremely dangerous journey. Now we come to what the video actually depicts - the withdrawal of troops. The first APC is hit while withdrawing and the escaping dismounts are effectively engaged after going to ground in the forest. The second APC then arrives in Zabalka, loads up, and is heavily hit and knocked out as it withdraws. A couple soldiers are seen heading deeper into the city on foot as it departs, but not a full squad - there may not have been room for them on the transport, or they may have (correctly) thought their chances were better on foot. Then the subsequent video emerged of Russian infantry clearing holdouts in the area, which could have very well been those men. So what happened here? Well, I pointed out earlier that it's standard practice to back-clear an urban area after taking it, to clear bypassed enemy strongholds and booby-traps and render the area safe to support further operations. I suspect there was actually a pocket of bypassed Ukrainian troops holed up in the western Zabalka District, a couple kilometers behind Russian lines, whom the AFU command tried to evacuate via APC earlier this week while they still had the chance to do so. And the Russians may very well have allowed those APCs to pull in and load up so they could - as they did - very coldly kill them while they were packed with infantry to withdraw. Why did the Ukrainian command undertake such a high-risk operation instead of simply writing these men off and telling them that it was every man for himself? Probably because these were Azov fighters and thus entitled to special treatment and consideration - one of their brigades operates in the area. In any event, far from suggesting a Ukrainian counterattack into south Toretsk, this turn of events suggests to me that the Russians are instead mopping up remaining resistance in the city. (As an addendum, the people behind Creamy Caprice think that the third segment of video 2 shows Ukrainian activity somewhat farther into the northwest corner of the Zabalka Dictrict, but that segment also doesn't show live troops - for all we know they were bombing an AFU comms repeater or something on the roof of that building. The second segment of that video is old judging by the snow on the ground.)

Tales of Wudan - STRAW PILLOWS Atop Wudan, the nights were always especially cold. We would sleep on concrete floors with straw pillows and blankets were forbidden. Many of the students would opt to do their chores in the middle of the night in an attempt to stay warm and then try to steal sleep during meditation in the warmer afternoons. Of course, Po was aware of this, and every so often would pluck a perpetrator from morning exercise and beat him severely. It’s a risk many children took, for it is very difficult to sleep when you are cold. But I wanted to feel like a weapon. Not to have a weapon or use a weapon - I wanted to BE and FEEL like a weapon. When I walk the streets, I feel a way most men can never feel. And to do that, I have endured 10,000 cold nights. When I graduated as a Master of Wudan I spent many years roaming from town to town. One day I fell in love. She said she would stay with me forever, sickness and health, no matter what. That I am the sword and she is the sheath, and we need each other. I believed her. She believed her. So I rented a small room. Concrete floor and straw pillow. I forbid us to touch - only body heat can be shared. She asked how long we must do this, and my answer was simple: “Until mastery is attained.” When I woke the following morning she was gone. I never saw her again. I believe she loved me, I believe she wanted me. But there is a difference between the wants and needs of a normal person, and a Master such as myself. When I hear others talk of love, I pity them. How can you be in love on expensive holidays and sharing takeaway? None of you are in Love. Not to the standard of Wudan. Doubt me? Place her on a concrete floor, with a straw pillow.

"These new sci-fi, action films, are good but they are not cinema." --- Akira Kurosawa Full Excerpt: "Interviewer: In your older films there was always some concern about human situations. What is the root of this? Kurosawa: When there is talk of humanity in Japan, everyone thinks of complex subjects and stories. However, whatever an ordinary human feels, we try to project on the screen in an honest way. That’s all. Interviewer: You were keen on American cinema… Kurosawa: Regarding American cinema, I could say that much better films were made in the past. Today’s American cinema provides the wrong service to the audience. Violence and car crashes are often seen. What pleasure is there in watching such scenes? Old American films expressed human problems quite well, but these days the American cinema has problems. There is no doubt that a film like 'Jurassic Park' (1993) is interesting, but there used to be more impressive films in the past. In contrast, films, like those of Kiarostami, touch the heart and are very beautiful. These new sci-fi, action films, are good but they are not cinema. Interviewer: In comparison to cinema as entertainment, how do you think Third World artistic cinema can attract a Western audience? Kurosawa: Civilization has poisoned humanity. The backbone of a good film is the filmmaker’s humane character. If we are not honest to ourselves, we will never be able to make decent films. Actually, it doesn’t mean that if a country is well off, it is necessarily capable of making good films. A person, who is able to make good films, knows how to find his or her way into the viewer’s heart; such as John Ford, Jean Renoir, John Huston, Federico Fellini, Angelopoulos, Sidney Lumet… I’ve met every one of them and have spoken to them. Just as they have exceptional works, they were also very distinguished in character. It was very easy to establish a cordial relationship with them, which is quite important. The people that are depicted on screen in their films are not predetermined (molded) characters. They express human problems in a natural way. That’s why their films are fascinating. Sidney Lumet is a close friend of mine, and whenever we sit down to talk we never discuss cinema. We generally discuss trivial matters, social problems or our hobbies, and we quite enjoy it. Reporters always ask me what the content of my film is and I tell them that there is no such a thing. I say ordinary things. A film is not supposed to be a lecture."

Hidden beneath the streets of Margate, Kent, England, lies one of the world’s most puzzling and awe-inspiring structures — the Shell Grotto, a subterranean cave system adorned with millions of shells arranged in intricate patterns and mosaics. Discovered by sheer accident in 1835, this underground passageway has since become a source of fascination and mystery, captivating the imaginations of archaeologists, historians, and visitors alike. What truly sets this grotto apart from other historical wonders is not just its stunning craftsmanship but the profound mystery surrounding its origin, purpose, and creators. The Shell Grotto was discovered by a curious young boy named James Newlove while digging a duck pond with his father. As they dug deeper, they stumbled upon a passageway that led into a cavernous series of tunnels covered from floor to ceiling with millions of shells, arranged in intricate and elaborate designs. This hidden masterpiece, buried beneath layers of earth, had remained untouched and unseen for what many believe could have been centuries. As word of the discovery spread, scholars, locals, and travelers flocked to see this astonishing underground marvel. Yet, as people began to explore its depths, more questions emerged than answers. Who built it? When was it created? And most intriguingly, why? Upon entering the Shell Grotto, visitors are greeted by a mesmerizing array of over 4.6 million shells meticulously arranged to form mosaics that span the walls and ceilings. The craftsmanship is nothing short of extraordinary — every inch of the grotto is covered in shells, including local varieties such as whelk, mussels, cockles, and oysters, all carefully selected and positioned to create symbols, patterns, and figures. The designs are both captivating and confounding. Some mosaics depict what appear to be stars, suns, flowers, and geometric shapes, while others suggest more cryptic symbols, resembling serpents, birds, and human figures. These intricate designs give the grotto an otherworldly and almost mystical quality. Yet, despite the extensive study of these mosaics, their meanings remain shrouded in mystery. Are they religious symbols, ancient hieroglyphics, or simply the whims of an imaginative artist? One of the most compelling aspects of the Shell Grotto is the total absence of any historical record about its construction. No one knows who built it, why, or even when it was created. Over the years, various theories have emerged, each offering its own intriguing possibility: Ancient Temple or Shrine - Some believe Shell Grotto could be remnants of an ancient temple or religious shrine, perhaps dating back to Roman or Phoenician period. Mysterious symbols and patterns could be connected to forgotten rites or ceremonies, with the shells themselves acting as sacred or spiritual symbols. Given Margate’s coastal location, it is plausible that the grotto was once part of a larger complex used by ancient civilizations. Medieval Secret Society Meeting Place - Another theory posits that grotto served as a secret meeting place for hidden society or organization during the medieval era. The covert nature of the grotto’s location, combined with the symbolic motifs, has led some to speculate that it was used by the Knights Templar or another clandestine group for rituals or gatherings. The cave’s secluded design certainly aligns with the need for privacy and secrecy. A Product of Eccentricity or Victorian Art - Yet another possibility is that grotto was constructed in 18th or 19th Century by an eccentric individual with a passion for art and design. This theory suggests that Shell Grotto might be an elaborate art project created purely for aesthetic pleasure, with the intention of mesmerizing and baffling those who encountered it. In this case, intricate shellwork would serve as a testament to the creativity and craftsmanship of the period rather than as religious or symbolic structure. #archaeohistories

O People of the Sunnah, Do Not Stop the Da'wah! A few minutes ago, I watched a snippet from an interview on Oyinmomo TV featuring the veteran Yoruba Nollywood actor, Sunny Alli. The interview covered his acting career, lifestyle, and several other aspects of his life. Towards the end of the conversation, he was asked to address a rumour that he had started attending Ilékẹ̀ú (an Arabic school) despite being an adult. Clarifying the matter, Sunny Alli explained that he is not enrolled in a conventional Arabic school. Rather, he regularly attends a circle of Islamic knowledge (ḥalaqah) held five times a week at the Ahlus-Sunnah mosque where he observes his daily prayers. He also mentioned that he attends the mosque's monthly public lectures. The interviewer then asked a profound question: "What have you gained since praying with the Ahlus-Sunnah and attending their lectures?" His response was refreshing. He explained that praying at the Ahlus-Sunnah mosque and consistently attending its lessons has made him more punctual and steadfast in his ṣalāh. He added that it helped him overcome his habit of betting and strengthened his understanding of essential matters of Islamic creed (ʿaqīdah) that are vital for success in this life and the Hereafter. One part of his response particularly stood out to me. He stated that he does not believe in many of the supernatural claims often portrayed in movies—such as exaggerated depictions of witches, human sacrifice, money rituals, and similar practices. At a time when we occasionally see some Muslim musicians and actors publicly speaking about such beliefs as though they are realities to be celebrated, hearing these words from Sunny Alli was truly a breath of fresh air. That short clip left me reflecting on something important: The Da'wah of the Sunnah is making progress. But we must not become complacent. Our Da'wah should never be confined to social media alone. We must continue taking the message of Tawḥīd and the Sunnah to our neighbourhood mosques, our families, our communities, our workplaces, and wherever people are willing to listen. Every sincere reminder has the potential to transform a life. The Prophet ﷺ said: "For Allah to guide one person through you is better for you than red camels." Never underestimate the impact of sincere Da'wah. A single lesson, a kind conversation, or an invitation to the mosque may become the means by which Allah guides a heart. May Allah grant Sunny Alli steadfastness upon Islam, increase him in beneficial knowledge and righteous deeds, and abundantly reward the imams, teachers, and everyone involved in the mosque where he prays and learns. May Allah also make us among those who call to the truth with wisdom, sincerity, and patience.

NASA, OCCULT RITUALS & MOLDING SOCIETY. This is where many of the elite and members of governments belief systems stem from. How does a NASA/JPL scientist, Scientologist, and Satanic Sex cults have anything to do with what's going on today? And most important, why are their open Satanist running our government and intelligence agencies performing literal Satanic rituals in the desert in the middle of nowhere and for what exact reason? Why would they continue to do this if it's allegedly not real, or is their something that they know, that they're not sharing with the rest of the world? Let's break down the ritual they performed and who these people are. Jack Parsons was an open Satanist and one of the founding fathers of rocketry, along with Wernher von Braun-Nazi and creator of the V2 rocket, who worked with NASA and was a student and follower of Aliester Crowley's Satanic religion called Thelema. Aliester Crowley was an open Satanist and the father of the "sexual revolution" who was also a British MI5 spy. He also was a huge contributor and into pedophil*a and transgenderism, which all go hand in hand with Satanic belief systems and a major part of ceremonial ritualistic magic, like child sacrifice. He also had a lot to do with the Tavistock Institute's study on mind control, and nondirectly influenced the CIA's Mk Ultra program in the west with his book, "The Drug Diaries," which was all about mind control and drugs. Go figure. Crowley once stated that the perfect candidate for child sacrifice is a young white male child, the younger the better, because of their purity and innocence which is crucial for these sick demonic practices which are still conducted to this day. Then you have L. Ron Hubbard, writer and father of science fiction, who also is the founder of the created religion known as Scientology. If you don't know much about Scientology, just know that they have an alien god named Xenu who brough billions of people to earth 75 million years ago. This alone should pretty much tell you everything you need to know. Aliester Crowley wrote about the connection, explaining that an "intelligence" was brought into physical manifestation, via a portal that was created during a Sex Magick ritual called the Almalantrah Working in 1918. The entity that was summoned called itself "LAM." Crowley considered it to be an interdimensional being, which oddly, and strongly resembled what we call an alien "grey." So performing Satanic rituals, an "alien grey" allegedly made contact. Is it really what it says it is or looks like? Or is it something lying to humanity? That's a whole other post to talk about that subject. Many Occult disciples believe the portal Crowley opened might have been widened or another portal was opened during the Babalon Working. The Babalon Working Ritual was a series of "Magick rituals" performed from January to March, 1946, by author, pioneer rocket-fuel scientist and Satanist Jack Parsons and Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard and Marjorie Cameron. The ritual was essentially designed to manifest an individual incarnation of Babalon. The project was based on the ideas of Satanist Aliester Crowley, and his description of a similar project in his 1917 novel, Moonchild. The "Moonchild" or "Whore of Babylon" is referred to in several places in the Book of Revelation, a book which may have had influence on "Thelema," which is Aliester Crowley's Satanic Religion, and says he read it as a child and imagined himself as the "Beast." She is described in Chapter 17:3-6. Almost immediately after Parsons declared that the first of the series of rituals was complete and successful, he met Marjorie Cameron in his own home, and regarded her as the elemental that he and Hubbard had called through the ritual. Soon Parsons began the next stage of the series, an attempt to conceive a child through sex magic workings. Although no child was conceived, this did not affect the result of the ritual to that point. Parsons and Cameron, who Parsons now regarded as the Scarlet Woman, Babalon, called forth by the ritual, soon married. The rituals performed drew largely upon rituals and sex magic described by English author and occult teacher Aleister Crowley. Crowley was in correspondence with Parsons during the course of the Babalon Working, and warned Parsons of his potential overreactions to the Magick he was performing, while simultaneously deriding Parsons' work to others. One very coincidental happening I want to point out is that the aim was to incarnate the Thelemic goddess Babalon in a human being. The rituals were conducted in the spring of 1946, with the specific date of October 26th being a significant point in the process. Guess who's birthday is October 26th, 1947? Hillary Clinton. Just a fascinating coincidence. There's no real evidence that Hillary is the moonchild. That we know of. Just an interesting fact. Now we will get to the part where this ties into modern day belief systems of the elite and wealthy individuals and the sexual and counter culture revolutions that were literally planned for society. It connects back to the 1920s-1930s to when very wealthy individuals and elite were all into the same belief systems and practices that such people like Aliester Crowley were promoting. A drug fueled, counter culture, sexual revolution, backed by Satanic beliefs and practices and engulfed with pedophil*a, transgenderism, transhuman, and paganistic beliefs and practices. These were the individuals who built our society's culture and who purposely have been molding and steering society through major institutions like Tavistock and the Esalen Institute, along with many others, who were run and founded by major wealthy players and backed by people like the Rockefellers.

Do you remember what took place and was happening in society right before Rome fell? It's widely considered the last things that happen before a society collapses. Transgenderism and pedophil*a. Pay attention. Everything happening today has been planned and engineered decades ago. It's time to fight back ladies and gentleman. The truth is definitely stranger than fiction.

NASA, OCCULT RITUALS & MOLDING SOCIETY. This is where many of the elite and members of governments belief systems stem from. How does a NASA/JPL scientist, Scientologist, and Satanic Sex cults have anything to do with what's going on today? And most important, why are their open Satanist running our government and intelligence agencies performing literal Satanic rituals in the desert in the middle of nowhere and for what exact reason? Why would they continue to do this if it's allegedly not real, or is their something that they know, that they're not sharing with the rest of the world? Let's break down the ritual they performed and who these people are. Jack Parsons was an open Satanist and one of the founding fathers of rocketry, along with Wernher von Braun-Nazi and creator of the V2 rocket, who worked with NASA and was a student and follower of Aliester Crowley's Satanic religion called Thelema. Aliester Crowley was an open Satanist and the father of the "sexual revolution" who was also a British MI5 spy. He also was a huge contributor and into pedophil*a and transgenderism, which all go hand in hand with Satanic belief systems and a major part of ceremonial ritualistic magic, like child sacrifice. He also had a lot to do with the Tavistock Institute's study on mind control, and nondirectly influenced the CIA's Mk Ultra program in the west with his book, "The Drug Diaries," which was all about mind control and drugs. Go figure. Crowley once stated that the perfect candidate for child sacrifice is a young white male child, the younger the better, because of their purity and innocence which is crucial for these sick demonic practices which are still conducted to this day. Then you have L. Ron Hubbard, writer and father of science fiction, who also is the founder of the created religion known as Scientology. If you don't know much about Scientology, just know that they have an alien god named Xenu who brough billions of people to earth 75 million years ago. This alone should pretty much tell you everything you need to know. Aliester Crowley wrote about the connection, explaining that an "intelligence" was brought into physical manifestation, via a portal that was created during a Sex Magick ritual called the Almalantrah Working in 1918. The entity that was summoned called itself "LAM." Crowley considered it to be an interdimensional being, which oddly, and strongly resembled what we call an alien "grey." So performing Satanic rituals, an "alien grey" allegedly made contact. Is it really what it says it is or looks like? Or is it something lying to humanity? That's a whole other post to talk about that subject. Many Occult disciples believe the portal Crowley opened might have been widened or another portal was opened during the Babalon Working. The Babalon Working Ritual was a series of "Magick rituals" performed from January to March, 1946, by author, pioneer rocket-fuel scientist and Satanist Jack Parsons and Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard and Marjorie Cameron. The ritual was essentially designed to manifest an individual incarnation of Babalon. The project was based on the ideas of Satanist Aliester Crowley, and his description of a similar project in his 1917 novel, Moonchild. The "Moonchild" or "Whore of Babylon" is referred to in several places in the Book of Revelation, a book which may have had influence on "Thelema," which is Aliester Crowley's Satanic Religion, and says he read it as a child and imagined himself as the "Beast." She is described in Chapter 17:3-6. Almost immediately after Parsons declared that the first of the series of rituals was complete and successful, he met Marjorie Cameron in his own home, and regarded her as the elemental that he and Hubbard had called through the ritual. Soon Parsons began the next stage of the series, an attempt to conceive a child through sex magic workings. Although no child was conceived, this did not affect the result of the ritual to that point. Parsons and Cameron, who Parsons now regarded as the Scarlet Woman, Babalon, called forth by the ritual, soon married. The rituals performed drew largely upon rituals and sex magic described by English author and occult teacher Aleister Crowley. Crowley was in correspondence with Parsons during the course of the Babalon Working, and warned Parsons of his potential overreactions to the Magick he was performing, while simultaneously deriding Parsons' work to others. One very coincidental happening I want to point out is that the aim was to incarnate the Thelemic goddess Babalon in a human being. The rituals were conducted in the spring of 1946, with the specific date of October 26th being a significant point in the process. Guess who's birthday is October 26th, 1947? Hillary Clinton. Just a fascinating coincidence. There's no real evidence that Hillary is the moonchild. That we know of. Just an interesting fact. Now we will get to the part where this ties into modern day belief systems of the elite and wealthy individuals and the sexual and counter culture revolutions that were literally planned for society. It connects back to the 1920s-1930s to when very wealthy individuals and elite were all into the same belief systems and practices that such people like Aliester Crowley were promoting. A drug fueled, counter culture, sexual revolution, backed by Satanic beliefs and practices and engulfed with pedophil*a, transgenderism, transhuman, and paganistic beliefs and practices.

Wow Sora is so amazing, I wanted to really push it to the limits and see how it would handle a very complex prompt: “A 45-45-90 right triangle divides in half within itself repeatedly to create an organized fractal structure with self similarity, increasing in size from small at the top left to large at the bottom right, the whole structure is gradually growing from the top left point as the origin to create a seamless loop over 8 seconds, the individual triangles form platforms like a staircase descending downwards and have small rounded corners, as they move towards the bottom of the screen they each divide in half and one half moves downwards slightly to create another step and then the halves should divide in half again and one moves downwards to create one more step, after the second division curved cut-outs inside the triangles emerge upwards in a mechanical motion to form a continuous winding curved path towards the top of the structure, the edges of the path cutouts should be visible in the floor before they emerge so the viewer can anticipate the path being formed, after the path pieces move into place three Adélie penguins hop upwards along the path chasing a bright turquoise butterfly, the penguins should be hopping like the penguins in the following videos [ and should be progressing up the path while staying visually centered onscreen, the animation of the triangle platforms dividing and path forming and penguins hopping should be visually clear from top to bottom and arranged in such a way that you can look anywhere in the image to focus on a certain part of the story yet also be able to follow along from top to bottom to watch how the story unfolds throughout the image, the platforms should all be made of an elegant slightly reflective light wooden floor and white walls like a contemporary art museum, as each path segment moves upwards into place it is revealed that it is built on reflective chrome columns, lighting in the room is dark except for a single spotlight following the penguins and thin neon tube lighting around the edge of each triangle platform placed just below the floor level so that when the platforms divide and descend it reveals the neon light from the platform behind it which lights up the edges of the newly formed triangles and makes their form clear to the viewer's eye, some more neon lights inside the edge of the gap left by the path segments rising to form the path, the large dark triangle that makes up the upper right corner should be divided repeatedly by subtly glowing lines in a similar structure to the main layout but moving in the opposite direction as if to suggest that the 45-45-90 triangle on which the whole structure is based is being gradually disintegrated over time into a series of smaller identical triangles and emotionally relatable architecture as a frame for the penguins at the center to make them seem like the protagonist of the piece even though the true protagonist is the triangle itself, in the style of shapiro500, isometric 3d, beautiful lighting, best quality, masterpiece, hyperdetailed 4k, octane render” but I don't have Sora access so I made it by hand with Cinema 4D instead
