240kg on the bar this morning for Romanian deadlifts, and I got all the way to the walk-up before it hit me. No intra-workout carbs. Bit of a sweat on at this point. Nothing to sip between sets. No steady drip of maltodextrin holding the whole operation together. Then I had a think about the morning and realised I hadn't had breakfast either. No oats. No banana. Nothing whatsoever in the ninety-minute window that the internet assures me is load-bearing. Proper panic now. Hands going. Then, and I wish I'd stopped checking, I looked back a bit further. No carbohydrate yesterday. Or the day before. Or, on closer inspection, since 2020. Six years. Six years of catabolism I've apparently been walking around in without noticing. So that's the session off. Strip the bar, go home, start the repair job, ring somebody. But while I was standing there working out who to ring, I looked back a bit further still. Two and a half million years, roughly. And every single ancestor I have ever had did months of the hardest physical work of their lives on nothing at all, in the cold, and not one of them made a fuss about it. They didn't have a protocol for it. They had a word for it. Winter. So I risked it all and pulled anyway. Came up fine. Comes up fine every morning. Genuinely disappointed. I'd got quite invested in the collapse.

I gave ChatGPT Astra one line: "turn a profit or I cancel the subscription." closed the laptop and went to work. came back 7 hours later expecting basically nothing. $40.15 → $28,410.92. my roommate saw the screen before I did. didn't say a word for a solid minute. here's what actually got me though. I didn't build half of what was running by the time I got back. Astra built its own rug-risk layer while I was gone, one I never asked for, grading every fresh mint the second it lands on chain. a filter that had already killed 190-something bad tokens before I even sat back down. none of that was in the original setup. it's not betting on one coin either. it's reading the whole Fomo board live and mirroring wallets that consistently print, the ones in before a chart even reacts. anything off, thin liquidity, a mint authority still live, one wallet holding too much supply, gets dropped before it costs anything. not flawless, some reads miss and the win rate dips on a bad stretch. the sizing is what keeps the losses small enough that it doesn't matter, so the line keeps climbing regardless. checked the logs before my roommate could even ask how. 19,300-something wallets scored in one pass, faster than either of us could read a single ticker. he wanted to see it happen live, not just the end number. pulled the replay, the whole run compressed into a few seconds. watching it back is somehow worse than the total, you see exactly where it looked dead and exactly where it turned. I'm not convinced I "ran" anything. I gave it a wallet and left the room. it traded on Fomo: you could do this with Grok Bot too, same outcome, different engine. just wanted to test Astra this time.

All this time, many of us thought Ling was walking a little awkwardly because she was sore from the gym. Only later did we find out she had injured her toe from work and running. Yet she never made a fuss about it. Instead, she joked about covering her feet, made everyone laugh, and carried on as if everything was fine. She later shared that, with how busy she had been, it took months before she finally had the chance to get it checked. And by the time she told the story, it was already recovering. She mentioned it so casually, almost as if it was nothing. That’s just who Ling is. She’s one of the strongest women I know—someone who quietly carries her responsibilities, always tries to make the people around her feel comfortable, and gives her best to every piece of work. It’s no surprise that the people who work with her always praise her professionalism and dedication. But my kid… Sometimes, it’s okay to cry. It’s okay to tell us when you’re having a hard time. You don’t always have to carry everything by yourself. Because you’ve always been so strong, people forget that strength doesn’t mean you never get hurt. While some are quick to judge you from a few seconds of footage or look for reasons to criticize you, you rarely explain yourself. But the people who truly know you don’t need those explanations. We know your kindness. We know your compassion. We know you’ll notice when someone else is struggling and instinctively step in to help. We know you’re someone who keeps your promises and always tries to give your best. Those are the qualities that define you—not the narratives people create. So next time, promise us one thing, okay? When you’re hurting, let us know. We want to be there for you, just as you’ve always been there for us. Take care of yourself, too. 🤍 #หลิงหลิงคอง #linglingkwong linglingsirilak

** MEGA Parodius Scaling Effects Part 1 ** One of the big challenges with the Parodius Megadrive port is Stage 8's boss - The puffer-fish *Pooyan* with his full screen scaling effect. The goal is to be very close to the arcade (with extras on top ) so I thought lets tackle it head on to see how close we can get. I was also keen to jump into another scaling code rabit hole haha. Pyron pulled out all the stops and got me the source frames and reworked the BG tiles for this test - a big thankyou to him , Vector Orbitex is busy working on Stage 2 tracks so the team is working hard all round on this port. The MD has no sprite / background GFX scaling hardware , however the VDPs Vertical scroll can be updated per scanline to help vertical scaling on backgrounds, but there is a cpu cost to manage all the interupts so thats not free either. With the Horizontal scaling there is no help at all , apart from a semi-friendly packed pixel format for the cpu to work with, its not quite chunky format but better than planar format still for scaling. So its falls back to the 68k CPU to do all of the horizontal expansion which is the largest cpu cost. Basically drawing strips of either 1x, 2x, 3x or 4x wide columns at speed. So we are one week into this Boss's routine and you can see from the below video the horizontal scaling is implented ( vertical will be in the next update ) . We are scaling from 1x to 4x in the video below in 74 steps for testing . The column distributions are always a bit painfull to do - thankfully they are all worked out now. This is the third scaler I have built and the goal was with this one to make it really flexible for use in other projects also, sometimes when you optimise something to the last degree all the flexibility gets taken out of it. Currenty scaling at 12-25 FPS update here, I had some rules against some optimisations which I would use and some I wouldn't , thankfully we are a bit ahead of the Arcades animation frame rate here still and I may yet find optimisations that fit within the scope. We have vertical scaling and sprite spikes to add yet so Im hoping i can find a few more optimisations to offset things when they are implemented also. In a scale frame update we are processing close to 42000 pixels in ram before using DMA to send to VRAM . Using a 41x16 (656 tile scale buffer) - single buffered for now due to its size in VRAM. So thats nearly 21k in tiles ! I had to re-organise ram a bit to support a buffer of that size for the stage. The scaling function is written in 68k assembly , with a little C code handling the Vertical interupt code ( so the game logic can actually run & DMA updates etc ) . The DMA routines are in assembly also and customised for large chunk size ( big blocks of tiles ) which suits the scaler. I had some race conditions to sort out where the cpu was faster than DMA (sending tiles from RAM to VRAM ) and in some cases where it wasn't so it had to be balanced. We may be able to add more detail into the top and bottom of the background yet but its low priority for now until all the other bits are in !! #SGDK #SegaMegadrive #Genesis #Parodius

I gave ChatGPT Astra one line: "turn a profit or I cancel the subscription." closed the laptop and went to work came back 8 hours later expecting nothing $30.29 → $39,596.53 my friend saw the screen before I did. he went quiet here's the thing he doesn't know yet. I didn't build any of what's running right now. Astra did, on its own, while I was gone the terminal I opened wasn't the one I left. it had a rug-risk screen bolted on that I never asked for. a scanner grading every fresh mint the second it hits the chain. a filter that had already killed 247 rugs before I got back to my desk. none of that was me it's not gambling on one coin either. it's reading the whole board on Robinhood, live, and mirroring the wallets that consistently print, dev wallets, insiders, smart money, the ones in before a chart even moves. anything that smells wrong, thin liquidity, a live mint authority, a wallet holding too much supply, it's gone before it costs a cent it's not flawless. some calls miss, the win rate dips when a read goes bad. that's the job. the sizing just makes sure the wins outweigh it every time, so the line keeps climbing anyway I checked the logs before my friend could ask how. 27,915 wallets scored in one pass. every decision made faster than either of us could read a ticker he wants to see it happen in real time now, not just the final number so I pulled the replay, last run, wallet by wallet, compressed down to a few seconds. and honestly, watching it back is worse than the number. you see exactly where it started ugly and exactly where it clicked I'm not sure I "ran" anything. I gave it a wallet and walked away. that's the whole story there's more of these running quietly than people admit to. you'll get it the day your own $30 turns into something you don't want to say out loud you could do this with Grok Bot too, that's the common route. I just wanted to test Astra instead. same outcome, different engine $30 well spent. like this post if you want me to ask it to create its own token follow me if you want to build your own and start pulling alpha daily!

Listen to me carefully. When you are in Charlie Kirk’s position, these are the questions you are not allowed to ask. These are the answers you are not allowed to give. Watch this video and remember: > Charlie’s public and private efforts to secure the release of the Epstein files > Charlie’s opposition to antisemitic “hate speech” laws > Charlie reportedly refusing a $150M donation for TPUSA from Bibi > Charlie declining Netanyahu’s recent invitation to visit Israel > Charlie’s decision to begin and continue platforming Israel-critical voices like Tucker Carlson and Dave Smith at TPUSA [he even mentioned bringing Candace back]. > Charlie’s text messages accusing Jewish donors of playing into into all the stereotypes after they pulled donations for his refusal to ban Tucker from TPUSA > Charlie’s text messages to his pro-Israel handlers stating that he was forced to abandon the pro-Israel cause. > Charlie questioning suspicious financial activity within TPUSA and ordering the establishment of “DOGE” committee to investigate the organization’s finances one week before he was shot. > Charlie privately back-channeling the White House to express concerns about pursuing regime change or getting pulled into a drawn out war in Iran by the Military Industrial Complex. It’s evident that Charlie Kirk was beginning to adopt a true America First position, which meant he was beginning to challenge the entire power structure of the political and economic system. He did this while sitting atop the largest youth conservative organization in the United States with thousands of chapters all across college campuses. He had a gargantuan social media footprint. He was 31 years old with extraordinary political aspirations and a tireless work ethic. He was a devoted Christian who couldn’t be blackmailed. He had the hearts, minds and ears of nearly every young conservative in the country who would’ve been the next generation of political leaders, academics, journalists, lawyers, business leaders, voters, activists, etc. … and he was distancing himself from the existing establishment. This is what gets you removed from the political chessboard. Some may even call it “neutralized”.

This is going to be a LONG post so please bare with me Today is my 20th birthday 🎉! I can’t Thank God enough for blessing me in the ways he has in the last six months. This is the first and probably not last birthday that I won’t really be celebrating. I am working today and have to meal prep. I went to the gym this morning which was some much needed therapy. So this will be my celebration. I am making this post celebrating all the important friends in my life who have changed it for the best. Mike I have known you for just over 2 years now and you have been around for some of my best moments and my worst moments. From helping me build out my first AR to watching you work your ASS off to build 2 amazing companies that won’t be going anywhere anytime soon with someone like you as a leader for them. Thank you for being there for me and encouraging me last year when I would send you dry fire videos. You don’t know it but I was going through one of the hardest seasons of my life and the encouragement you gave me ment the world and helped me. You were one of the first people to really motivate me to lose weight. Thank you brother Havoc 2-1 Thank you for all the encouragement and advice you have given me. When I posted that range video and you RT it commented and followed me I didn’t sleep AT ALL that night. It was the happiest I had been in a while to see someone who I looked up to recognize me and the stuff I was doing. And without you doing that I would never had found KingWash and gotten all the coaching he has given me. You motivate me and help keep me going. Thank you brother Wash Without you I would probably be heavier and weaker. And not a very good shooter compared to where I am at now. I truly mean it when I say you have changed my life in ways you don’t know and I can’t express online. Getting me in the gym and lifting. giving a kid with zero structure in his life, meaning and a structured path to follow and chase a dream is something only a few people in life are blessed with and I can’t thank you enough for everything you have done for me. Thank you brother Parker Geurin Thank you for being a role model to me. You are such an amazing father and family man and the positivity that you give is amazing man. Don’t ever stop being you and letting your light shine. And thank you for all the encouragement and kind words you have said to me, it truly means the world. Thank you Brother OG Pancake (Lead in The Wind) Thank you for being you. The laughs that I get from some of your posts and replies make my day. You are a genuine dude who has a lot to give and I thank you for encouraging me as you have. Thank you brother grumpycattac Thank you for the encouragement and wisdom you have given me. When I first started dry firing you were quick to listen and slow to judge. You helped and encouraged me and for that I thank you. Thank you brother Emily Fisher Thank you for for being an inspiration. You have inspired me to be consistent on days where I haven’t wanted to do anything. seeing you post a dry fire session one less number than the day before makes me want to get off my lazy ass and work. Thank you Greyson VonLanningham Hannah thank you for all the encouragement and uplifting you guys have blessed me with. I truly can’t tell you how much it means to me. Thank you both If I have missed someone I am sorry please forgive me as I have run out of space and am writing this at work. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next year of my life and what God has in store for me. Thank you all for being my friends. I can’t wait to meet all of you at one point or another and express my thanks in person.

You don’t know it but I was going through one of the hardest seasons of my life and the encouragement you gave me ment the world and helped me. You were one of the first people to really motivate me to lose weight. Thank you brother Havoc 2-1 Thank you for all the encouragement and advice you have given me. When I posted that range video and you RT it commented and followed me I didn’t sleep AT ALL that night. It was the happiest I had been in a while to see someone who I looked up to recognize me and the stuff I was doing. And without you doing that I would never had found KingWash and gotten all the coaching he has given me. You motivate me and help keep me going. Thank you brother Wash Without you I would probably be heavier and weaker. And not a very good shooter compared to where I am at now. I truly mean it when I say you have changed my life in ways you don’t know and I can’t express online. Getting me in the gym and lifting. giving a kid with zero structure in his life, meaning and a structured path to follow and chase a dream is something only a few people in life are blessed with and I can’t thank you enough for everything you have done for me. Thank you brother Parker Geurin Thank you for being a role model to me. You are such an amazing father and family man and the positivity that you give is amazing man. Don’t ever stop being you and letting your light shine. And thank you for all the encouragement and kind words you have said to me, it truly means the world. Thank you Brother OG Pancake (Lead in The Wind) Thank you for being you. The laughs that I get from some of your posts and replies make my day. You are a genuine dude who has a lot to give and I thank you for encouraging me as you have. Thank you brother grumpycattac Thank you for the encouragement and wisdom you have given me. When I first started dry firing you were quick to listen and slow to judge. You helped and encouraged me and for that I thank you. Thank you brother Emily Fisher Thank you for for being an inspiration. You have inspired me to be consistent on days where I haven’t wanted to do anything. seeing you post a dry fire session one less number than the day before makes me want to get off my lazy ass and work. Thank you Greyson VonLanningham Hannah thank you for all the encouragement and uplifting you guys have blessed me with. I truly can’t tell you how much it means to me. Thank you both If I have missed someone I am sorry please forgive me as I have run out of space and am writing this at work. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next year of my life and what God has in store for me. Thank you all for being my friends. I can’t wait to meet all of you at one point or another and express my thanks in person.

I’m thrilled to present something Marián Marčiš and I have been working on for the past few weeks. To my knowledge, this is something that has never been done before, and this is our first model that includes underground parts. Behold a photogrammetric 3D model of Zona X! Zona X (also known as Lanlakuyoc or Lancacuyo) is a mysterious site about a mile North-East of Sacsayhuaman. It’s a big limestone outcrop intersected by a network of tunnels and narrow passageways, some open to the sky, and others going deep underground. It also features several right-angled cuts in the bedrock ("hanan pacha" style) whose function remains unknown to this day, as well as a section of a megalithic wall. It is also said that this site once had a chincana entrance, possibly connecting to Sacsayhuaman, that has now been sealed off. I have an idea of which passage could lead to an entrance, but it remains to be confirmed. It's a true stone labyrinth in which it's easy to get lost, which is why I wanted to create a 3D map of it. I wanted to get a better idea of how these passages are oriented in relation to each other and where they could lead. It took several visits to the site to map all the passages I could crawl through. Some of these passageways become too narrow to squeeze through for an adult of average build, but seem to extend much deeper. It took Marián a LOT of work (and a lot of processing power) to combine and align the thousands of photos from a drone and extracted from a 360° ground video needed to create the 55 millions triangles that make up this model. I’m not sure how he did it but he pulled it off. He really deserves his title of photogrammetry wizard. Please make sure to give him the follow he deserves Marián Marčiš. The video doesn't show all the passages I filmed for the creation of the model. We decided to only show the main ones, and some of the most prominent stone carvings in order to keep the video relatively short. The site has many more nooks and crannies not shown in the video that are just begging to be explored. I hope we can complete this model in the future. Until then, enjoy this one!

Google just pulled off the biggest theft in the history of AI. And their OWN documents exposed it... Three of the largest publishers on Earth, Hachette, Cengage, and Elsevier, just sued Google in federal court, alongside best-selling author Scott Turow. Their claim is that Google built Gemini, its flagship AI, on millions of copyrighted works it never paid for or licensed. This is one of the biggest copyright cases ever aimed at an AI company: Before they trained Gemini, an internal Google document allegedly spelled out the risk directly. Using this material could expose the company to "$10Bs-$100Bs in potential fines." Google's own people put a number on the theft, in the tens of billions, but the company moved ahead anyway. Then it allegedly tried to DELETE the evidence... The complaint says Google stripped the copyright information off the works before feeding them into Gemini, so nobody could trace what the model had actually been trained on. Pull the fingerprints off first, and the theft gets much harder to prove later. And there's a second betrayal underneath the first: Most of this material was not scraped from some random corner of the internet. Publishers had handed it to Google years earlier for a narrow purpose, to make their catalogs searchable inside Google's own services. The lawsuit says Google took that trust and repurposed the content to build a machine that now competes directly with the people who supplied it. And that machine is the entire point. The complaint describes Gemini producing a full-length substitute for a copyrighted work in about 20 minutes. Something an author spent years writing can now be cloned in an afternoon by the company that trained on the original. No writer or publisher survives that. So why does this case matter more than the dozen other AI copyright fights? Because most of them turn on a fuzzy fair-use question argued years after the fact. This one arrives with an internal document that allegedly SHOWS Google weighed the cost of getting caught and trained on the material anyway. A jury does not need a law degree to read that. The fight now moves toward discovery, where Google's internal emails and training records get dragged into the open. If those files back up what the complaint claims, that $100 billion will turn into a real liability. Google spent years telling the world it was organizing information for everyone. Its own documents show it knew exactly whose information it was taking, and what the price of getting caught would be.

🪨 This man lived in Britain 2,000 years ago. 🪨 He was killed four times ⚔️ Today, you can see exactly what he looked like 👁️ On 1 August 1984, a peat-cutter in Cheshire pulled what looked like a piece of wood off the conveyor belt 🚜 The peat fell away. It was a human foot. The workers stopped the machine. The police came. Then a Cheshire archaeologist called Rick Turner came too. He took one look at the leg and he knew. This was not a recent murder. This man had been here a long time 🕰️ They lifted him out of the peat. Skin still pliable. Hair still on his head. A face. Calm. Recognisable. 2,000 years old. And looking back at them. He was a man in his mid-twenties. Five foot six. Strong build. Reddish-brown hair. Trimmed beard. High cheekbones. The face and build of a man you might walk past in Cheshire today 🤝 His fingernails were polished. His beard had been trimmed with fine shears. His hands had done no heavy work. Not a labourer. Not a slave. Someone important. He was the kind of man a community puts forward. 🕯️ His last meal was a charred griddle cake. Mistletoe pollen was in his stomach. Then he was taken to the bog. First, a blow to the head. Hard enough to crack the skull. Then a garrote, tightened around his throat. Then a knife, drawn across his neck. And then he was laid face-down in the bog water 💧 Four deaths in one afternoon. Performed carefully. By people who knew exactly what they were doing. Mistletoe was sacred to the Druids 🌿 Their priests cut it from oak with a golden sickle. This was not a crime. This was a ritual. Lindow Man was likely chosen. Honoured. Offered. For centuries, Rome told us the Britons were savages. Without writing. Without civilisation. Without faith worth respecting. His body says otherwise 🪨 Sophisticated. Groomed. Cared for. Buried with reverence. A society that took his death seriously enough to lay him where the peat would preserve him. For 2,000 years 🕰️ Rome came. Rome went. Saxons came. Normans came. The land was farmed, fought over, built on, sold. The bog stayed. And inside it, so did he 💧 Until 1984. Today, he is in London. The British Museum. Room 50 🏛️ Behind glass.

“OUR HUSBANDS DROPPED DEAD IN 2021 the night of the covid shot.” ONA: “I am Ona, widow of Geoffrey Young (45) FBI special agent. In 2021 as a new widow I went to the school meeting alone as I overheard a woman say loudly, hands on hips, “I just don’t get it, why won’t people give up their arm and get the shot.” “I wanted to vomit. My husband got the shots BEFORE he was told he HAD TO. I never got the shots bec I didn’t see the science. My husband laughed at me “ONA, millions of people got it, don’t worry.” Geoffrey got just one shot, came home with severe headache, 5 hours later I found him blue in bed. MEDICAL EXAMINER CALLED IT “COINCIDENCE.” MARYBETH: “My husband dropped dead Sept 29, 2021 in the middle of his nursing shift at a major hospital from the booster shot. He got the shot 20 days prior. Two weeks before that, he had a full physical and heart workup, everything looked fine, barring slight high BP due to first set of shots, at that point, medication for it was optional. He did not plan to get any more but they wheeled a 'vaccine cart' through their unit - night shift - pressuring staff to get any-every vaccine, including hepititis, shingles, flu, covid, hpv. He opted only for the booster. He felt ill for the first couple of days, slept a lot. (They come with the cart on the last night of a rotation so people who take shots can rest before coming back to work.) He then began complaining of feeling "strange" needing naps for the first time in his life (including childhood) but he would not take them if I was not in there with him. He became more clingy, kept saying, "I just can't get a leg up after that shot! It kicked my ass! I just feel strange!" I asked him several times if he wanted urgent care or ER. He said, "There is really nothing to tell. I feel strange?" He knows that system. The night he passed, leaving for work, he said, "Can you go to 'your' healthfood store see if you can find a testosterone booster or something? That shot just kicked my ass!" I asked if he wanted to call in we could go to ER but he said, "When I get in, get my patient load, drink my coffee I will have a little more energy, 3 hours later, he was dead, after driving 25 minutes around the bay to work so thank God it didn't happen then. I found out afterwards we ALSO lost a cardiologist who refused for the first year or two but gave in to take his wife on a cruise. (He and his buddy, a pulmonary specialist both refused, then gave in for the cruise.) The cardiologist and his wife got the vaccine a few days before the cruise, died in his sleep 2nd night of the cruise. They had resisted shots bec he and his buddy saw a huge rise in patients dropping dead as well as heart problems We also lost a nurse (34) who felt ill after getting it, observed for 4 hours, sent home, died in her sleep next night. I have since found out we have had many, MANY deaths from medical personnel here since the vaccines. I have met many widows/widowers whose spouses died from vaccine induced sudden death or illnesses. I have also met parents whose kids died from the vaccine, kids who now are type 1 diabetics after getting the shot. Some say Fauci was pre-pardoned and can't be charged. First of all, pre-pardoning should NOT be a thing. And auto-pen pardons should not be legal.” ❤️‍🩹 From Mary Beth on Facebook Hope you hit follow and my wall alert🛎️bell if you’d like to fight Pharma mafia my X GrowthFactorOrg deleted April 2025 and check comments for the protocol we used on Peter my friend at age 80 told Jan 2025 had 3 months left to live January 2025 the 2Pfizer he took in 2021 led to cancers in his brain, brain stem, prostate, and non-small so long.“

🚨"[It was] this massive alien sucking the life off of me!" Young, super-fit man describes how he spilled glyphosate on his neck and developed cancer—exactly where it was spilled—just months after "One of the reasons [I] believe... it was glyphosate is because... I never had any cancerous lymph nodes in my whole lymphatic system besides... where it weaponized my lymph nodes and made them into a tumor, essentially" "it took from, when I was diagnosed, just a matter of months to where you see in these pictures here... this massive alien sucking the life off of me" "I personally don't believe any cancer is natural... We've been lied to, obviously" This clip of Arden Allison, who had to battle the cancer he's describing for seven years, is taken from a conversation with Polly Tommey of Children’s Health Defense posted to YouTube on July 17, 2026. His mother, Serene Allison, is the woman sitting next to him. ----------------Partial transcription of clip--------------- Arden: "One of the big exposures that I had, instead of just a mist, I— the truck sprayer broke. So instead of a big sprayer that shoots about 30 feet away, broke. So I had to go spray the compound and the access road with a backpack sprayer. "Well, I jumped over a little, I guess four foot fence, climbed over, jumped, landed, and braced for it, which is no problem. But when I did so I kind of bent over, the lid popped off and I was completely doused, up, like shoulders and kind of, I guess upper body area with glyphosate. "And number one, I was like, okay, it's fine. I was told it was healthy and not healthy, but it was absolutely fine. No problem. Was not a chemical. Number two, I didn't have access to a shower, so I washed off with a water bottle... And then continued to work until the, to the end of the day. And number three, it was hot, my pores were open, I was sweaty. And you just soak up all those chemicals and that whole season of work. "I worked for them for only about two months before I got tired of traveling and being on the road. That was September, October of 2015. And then I was diagnosed, just after, in 2016. Serene: "And, the kind of muscly brawn guy, he's six foot five, he was just becoming like, instead of mesomorphic, he was ectomorphic. He was getting thinner by the day. And I'm like, Arden, you okay? And he's like, I got a bit of a scratchy throat. And he kept on itching all around. "He was just always itching, and I'm like, something's— What do you got, a rash or something? He's just itching all the time. And he said he started having trouble sleeping at night. He said, it's just so hot. I'm sweating through the nights. Which is a sign of Hodgkin's lymphoma, apparently. Arden: "It's a sign of a lot of different illnesses, like having night sweats. Your body's not, you know, properly functioning, but, yeah. Polly Tommey: "And, and so those pictures are shocking. So how long did it take for you to swell up around your neck? And you're describing how the glyphosate spilled on you in exactly those areas." Arden: "Yeah, so that's, that's one of the reasons why I do believe, that it was glyphosate is because I— That's— I only dumped it and had an exposure, an extreme exposure in this area. I never had any cancerous lymph nodes in my whole lymphatic system. Besides, you know, right here. These were where it weaponized my, you know, my lymph nodes and made them into, you know, a tumor, essentially. "But, yeah, it took. When I was diagnosed, the doctor said, hey, congratulations. If you're gonna have cancer, this is the one you want. So many young people beat it. And the good news is, you're young. So awesome. Fist bump. And I was like, all right, cool. "At first, I was shocked because I was man, I shouldn't be having cancer. And I didn't even know what it was. I only thought old people and unhealthy people got cancer at the time. It was just so, bizarre and unheard of. "Now, it took from, when I was diagnosed, just a matter of months to where you see on these pictures here, where I had these massive. This massive alien sucking the life off of me. I personally don't believe any cancer is natural. "They say genetic. Yeah, there are. There are some. But I think it's just. It starts in. It starts by chemicals. These genetic strains start by chemicals. We've been— We've been lied to, obviously. "We have record diagnosis of crazy cancers, new cancers. Man, this stuff we've never seen before. The doctor said we've never seen a Hodgkins lymphoma this aggressive. "It has to be fed by chemicals. When we play God, we have these organizations that play God, tweak, what we spray on our crops. They tweak our food, and they genetically mutate it. And then we consume this and we're exposed to it. It's on golf courses. It's on everything."

He said, it's just so hot. I'm sweating through the nights. Which is a sign of Hodgkin's lymphoma, apparently. Arden: "It's a sign of a lot of different illnesses, like having night sweats. Your body's not, you know, properly functioning, but, yeah. Polly Tommey: "And, and so those pictures are shocking. So how long did it take for you to swell up around your neck? And you're describing how the glyphosate spilled on you in exactly those areas." Arden: "Yeah, so that's, that's one of the reasons why I do believe, that it was glyphosate is because I— That's— I only dumped it and had an exposure, an extreme exposure in this area. I never had any cancerous lymph nodes in my whole lymphatic system. Besides, you know, right here. These were where it weaponized my, you know, my lymph nodes and made them into, you know, a tumor, essentially. "But, yeah, it took. When I was diagnosed, the doctor said, hey, congratulations. If you're gonna have cancer, this is the one you want. So many young people beat it. And the good news is, you're young. So awesome. Fist bump. And I was like, all right, cool. "At first, I was shocked because I was man, I shouldn't be having cancer. And I didn't even know what it was. I only thought old people and unhealthy people got cancer at the time. It was just so, bizarre and unheard of. "Now, it took from, when I was diagnosed, just a matter of months to where you see on these pictures here, where I had these massive. This massive alien sucking the life off of me. I personally don't believe any cancer is natural. "They say genetic. Yeah, there are. There are some. But I think it's just. It starts in. It starts by chemicals. These genetic strains start by chemicals. We've been— We've been lied to, obviously. "We have record diagnosis of crazy cancers, new cancers. Man, this stuff we've never seen before. The doctor said we've never seen a Hodgkins lymphoma this aggressive. "It has to be fed by chemicals. When we play God, we have these organizations that play God, tweak, what we spray on our crops. They tweak our food, and they genetically mutate it. And then we consume this and we're exposed to it. It's on golf courses. It's on everything."

Or, built by a previous, highly-advanced civilization on Earth? Or, from a current, human, "breakaway civilization"?) ~ Former U.S. Air Force Sergeant Karl Wolfe: "My boss came to me, I was working in a color lab at that time, I was a technician, photographic technician. I was asked to go over to this facility on Langley Air Force Base, where the NSA was bringing in the information from the lunar orbiter. And so I packed up some tools, I went over, I went into the facility. "A couple of officers took me into this hangar. This was a very large hangar. So they took me into this laboratory. I took a look at the equipment. There was an airman second class in there, I was an airman second class as well. He turned the equipment on and put it through its paces. It didn't do what it was supposed to do. I saw what was going on with it, and I said to him, 'You know, we'll have to take this thing out of the lab if we're going to work on it. We can't work on it in here in the dark-room environment.' "So, everyone left the facility, left the dark room, except this airman second class and myself.

There is a digital signature and a gray scale on every 35 millimeter strip. And those strips were from successive passes around the moon.

0.001% TAX A junior auditor at PwC in Luxembourg is getting ready to leave his job. Before he goes he goes looking for some training documents to take with him. Instead he finds a folder that anyone in the company could open. No password. No warning. Just sitting there. Inside are hundreds of secret deals between the Luxembourg government and some of the biggest companies on the planet. Deals that let them pay next to nothing in tax. His name is Antoine Deltour. He copies 30,000 pages. That is the whole story. He copies a folder. Let me explain what was actually in it, because this is where it gets interesting. Between 2002 and 2010, PwC alone helped broker 548 of these secret tax agreements, known as tax rulings, for over 340 companies. Apple. Ikea. Pepsi. Disney. Deutsche Bank. AIG. Koch Industries. Skype. GlaxoSmithKline. Coach. Abbott Laboratories. Household names, every one of them. The trick was simple. Companies moved profits through Luxembourg shell structures and Luxembourg quietly agreed in writing to look the other way on tax. Some of these companies ended up paying an effective tax rate under 1 percent. In some cases as low as 0.001 percent. On billions of dollars. Who was running Luxembourg for almost 20 years while this machine was built and protected? Jean-Claude Juncker, Prime Minister of Luxembourg until 2013. Deltour did not leak straight to the world. In 2012 he passed the documents to French journalist Edouard Perrin, who used them for a TV documentary. PwC noticed and filed a complaint with the Luxembourg courts. Then in November 2014, ICIJ ICIJ pulled together over 80 journalists across more than 30 media outlets in 26 countries and published the full scale of it as LuxLeaks. The timing could not have been worse for Juncker, or depending how you look at it, could not have been better. He had just been elected President of the European Commission days before the story broke. The man who ran the tax haven for two decades was now running Europe. A month later ICIJ dropped LuxLeaks 2, showing the other Big 4 accounting firms Deloitte, EY and KPMG were running the exact same playbook. This was never one bad apple. It was standard practice. Juncker faced a no confidence vote in the European Parliament over it. He survived. Deltour was not so lucky. December 2014, Luxembourg charges him with theft, violation of trade secrecy and fraudulent access to a computer system. He is facing up to 5 years in prison and a fine of 1,250,000 euros. For opening an unlocked folder on his way out the door. April 2016, the criminal trial. Deltour and his colleague Raphael Halet, another former PwC employee who leaked a second batch of documents, are both convicted. Deltour gets 12 months suspended and a 1,500 euro fine. Perrin the journalist is acquitted. Deltour appeals. Loses. Appeals again. Finally in May 2018 the Luxembourg Court of Appeal fully recognises him as a genuine whistleblower under European Court of Human Rights standards and acquits him completely. Halet's fight took even longer. He lost his Luxembourg appeals and only won at the European Court of Human Rights Grand Chamber in 2023, nearly a decade after he first spoke up. The European Commission that Juncker went on to lead never opened a single formal investigation into a single LuxLeaks tax ruling. Not one. It did chase Starbucks, Fiat and Amazon over separate deals, but the mountain of paperwork Deltour handed over sat there untouched. So that is the LuxLeaks story. Build a tax avoidance machine for 20 years and get promoted to run the continent. Copy the evidence of it and spend most of a decade fighting to stay out of prison.

Cancel culture is back, and this time it's coming for EVERYONE! Ginger guitar goblin Ed Sheeran is currently on a huge international tour, or he was, until one of his support acts, Macklemore (not to be confused with Michael Moore), started mouthing off with his 14-year-old girl Instagram opinions on Israel. I was ready to condemn cancel culture coming for the left, and then I saw Macklemore in "Jew face". This wasn't for a Borat film. This is just what's acceptable these days for young lefties. I should point out that this was in 2014. This wasn't him last week coming out saying, "Welcome to the stage, Ed Sheeran," but this provides some context as to what he’s saying now. In a statement on his website, he explained that he had worn a fake beard, wig and “witch nose” to disguise himself at what was a secret show so that he could “walk around unnoticed and surprise the crowd with a short performance”. Oh yeah, nothing helps you blend into the crowd more than an insane papier-mâché Nazi propaganda costume. Unfortunately for Macklemore, a lot of stadiums are owned by Jewish guys, such as Robert Kraft who, according to Macklemore, rallied other stadium owners to get him kicked off the tour. Everyone weighed in with an opinion, from Miss Rachel to Pink. Ed Sheeran tried to placate everyone. In a statement posted to Instagram, Sheeran said he was “appalled” by the conflict, and “the suffering and pain caused on both sides”. He said: “Macklemore asked to join my tour last year and I agreed, because I respect him as an artist... Macklemore coming off the tour was the promoter’s decision, it was not mine. “There’s a reason I do not use my professional platform for politics – my audience includes young people... [T]hose who come to my shows do not expect a political forum,” Sheeran wrote. But in today's highly polarised society, with so many people on the side of barbarous third-world terrorists who want to kill them, this didn't placate anyone. All the supporting acts for his tour have pulled out, every single one of them. If this doesn't show that there's a sort of social coercion, a Soviet-style enforcement of opinion in the creative industries, then I don't know what will. You'd think maybe some of them might be against murderers, terrorists who want to kill them, but no. They know they have to have the Free Palestine opinion, or they'll be attacked. Man, I feel sorry for Ed Sheeran. He just wants to sing his nice songs about holding hands with a girl. He doesn't want to be a spokesman at the United Nations. He's not Boutros Boutros Boutros Ghali. He's not got a megaphone at a Palestine protest. He doesn’t want his music to be politicised and I think that’s good, because as soon as you come out with political opinions, you start alienating people. And I think it's perfectly fine for Ed Sheeran to not have opinions about some ancient tribal feud in the desert, 10,000 miles away. Macklemore and Beoga and the other nobodies might get a moment in the spotlight from their Palestantrum, but show business is a business. I hope people in the industry remember how much these ponces screwed over not just Ed Sheeran, but the hundreds of people who work on his tour: the gaffers, the riggers, the drivers, all of whom have families to feed and mortgages to pay.

Jensen Huang just described something that should keep every worker in America awake tonight. Not because AI is coming for their job. Because most of them never understood what their job actually was. Huang: “The task of our job and the purpose of our job are related, not the same.” Most people think their job is the thing they do with their hands for eight hours a day. Write code. Fill spreadsheets. Draft emails. Push pixels. That was never the job. That was the task. The job was always the thinking underneath it. Huang: “If you apply that to me, you would come to the conclusion what Jensen does for a living is tap on phones and talk. And tapping on phones and talking, AI has done that just fine. And therefore my job should be gone. But I’m busier than ever.” This is the part nobody wants to sit with. The people panicking about AI aren’t afraid of losing their work. They’re afraid of finding out they never had any. They had a routine. A repetitive motion. A series of keystrokes that felt like purpose. Now a machine does it in four seconds. Huang: “AI has created more than half a million jobs in the last couple of years.” The data says one thing. The fear says another. Because the fear was never about employment numbers. It was about identity. We spent fifty years hunched over keyboards, convinced the hunching was the work. Huang: “The idea that being human means to hunch over on this little thing, typing all the time… 50 years before that, people didn’t do that.” Fifty years. That’s all it took to build an entire identity around a posture. We don’t type for a living. We think for a living. We imagine for a living. The keyboard was always just the delivery mechanism. Never the product. Huang: “It is a fundamental flaw that we only need a billion lines of code written. We need a trillion lines of code written.” The demand was always infinite. The bottleneck was always our fingers. AI doesn’t shrink the workforce. It removes the cap on what the workforce can actually build. Huang: “Companies that use AI have demonstrated the ability to grow faster. When they grow faster, they hire more people.” Growth doesn’t eliminate people. It pulls them in. Every industrial revolution triggered the same panic. Same headlines. Same wrong conclusion. And every single time, the economy didn’t contract. It expanded into territory that didn’t exist before. The real question was never whether AI takes your job. It was whether you were ever anything more than the motions you repeated. Because somewhere in the last fifty years, we stopped asking what the work was for. We just kept typing. And now the typing is done. And millions of people are about to meet themselves for the first time. With nothing to hide behind. Some of them won’t survive what they find.

More than a hundred years ago, San Francisco built a city out of jewels and then tore almost all of it down on purpose. You are looking at the Panama–Pacific International Exposition of 1915. For ten months, on six hundred acres along the city's northern waterfront, San Francisco raised an entire fantasy metropolis of palaces, colonnades, fountains, and towers, and invited the world to walk through it. Nearly nineteen million people did. What makes it almost unbelievable is the timing. Only nine years earlier, in 1906, San Francisco had been flattened by one of the worst earthquakes and fires in American history. Much of the city had burned to the ground. The exposition was the city's answer to the world: not only have we survived, we can build something more beautiful than anything you have ever seen. At its heart stood the Tower of Jewels, 435 feet of triumphal arch and tower rising over the fairgrounds. Its surface was hung with more than 100,000 small cut-glass "jewels," each dangling on a tiny hook so it would tremble in the wind. By day they flashed in the sunlight. At night, more than fifty spotlights were turned on them, and the entire tower shimmered above the bay like something out of a dream. People had never seen anything like it... Around it spread a city of wonders. The Palace of Fine Arts, a vast Roman ruin reflected in its own still lagoon, designed to evoke the beautiful melancholy of a vanished civilization. The Palace of Machinery, so enormous that an airplane was once flown inside it. Grand courts and avenues lined with sculpture, all built in a soft, unified palette of color, glowing under the new technology of indirect electric light. And nearly all of it was designed to disappear. When it closed in December 1915, the dream city was systematically pulled down. Only one structure was saved. The Palace of Fine Arts, the most beloved of them all, was considered too beautiful to lose. Decades later it was rebuilt, and it still stands in San Francisco today, the last survivor of an entire city that existed for less than a year... Perhaps that’s what haunts us most: not that we built temporary palaces, but that we chose not to keep them. We built beauty knowing we would destroy it, as if beauty itself were disposable. Roger Scruton once said: "There is a deep human need for beauty, and if you ignore that need in architecture, your buildings will not last, since people will never feel at home in them." I started this newsletter because the people who came before us were capable of extraordinary things, and almost no one is teaching us about them anymore. Every week I try to.

More than a hundred years ago, San Francisco built a city out of jewels and then tore almost all of it down on purpose. You are looking at the Panama–Pacific International Exposition of 1915. For ten months, on six hundred acres along the city's northern waterfront, San Francisco raised an entire fantasy metropolis of palaces, colonnades, fountains, and towers, and invited the world to walk through it. Nearly nineteen million people did. What makes it almost unbelievable is the timing. Only nine years earlier, in 1906, San Francisco had been flattened by one of the worst earthquakes and fires in American history. Much of the city had burned to the ground. The exposition was the city's answer to the world: not only have we survived, we can build something more beautiful than anything you have ever seen. At its heart stood the Tower of Jewels, 435 feet of triumphal arch and tower rising over the fairgrounds. Its surface was hung with more than 100,000 small cut-glass "jewels," each dangling on a tiny hook so it would tremble in the wind. By day they flashed in the sunlight. At night, more than fifty spotlights were turned on them, and the entire tower shimmered above the bay like something out of a dream. People had never seen anything like it... Around it spread a city of wonders. The Palace of Fine Arts, a vast Roman ruin reflected in its own still lagoon, designed to evoke the beautiful melancholy of a vanished civilization. The Palace of Machinery, so enormous that an airplane was once flown inside it. Grand courts and avenues lined with sculpture, all built in a soft, unified palette of color, glowing under the new technology of indirect electric light. And nearly all of it was designed to disappear. When it closed in December 1915, the dream city was systematically pulled down. Only one structure was saved. The Palace of Fine Arts, the most beloved of them all, was considered too beautiful to lose. Decades later it was rebuilt, and it still stands in San Francisco today, the last survivor of an entire city that existed for less than a year...
