Whenever the "spanking" conversation goes viral, I find myself angry all over again at how many Christian parents have been told to administer physical violence during the very formative years of infancy, toddlerhood & preschool years.

Take half a minute to observe children at this age & you will see their vulnerability, their constant checking in w/caregivers as they make sense of the world around them, the slow pace at which they operate.
Yet in moments of frustration adults assign them malicious motives. +

Because of parental inconvenience & overwhelm, adults who don't know what to do see a child's immaturity and vulnerability, or fail to rise to the maturity required of *parents,* and think: danger! Rebellion! Willfulness!

@SecScottBessent 1/10 YOU are a DAMN LIAR, and I am going to educate YOU (but I am PRETTY DAMN sure you already KNOW this shit) and the people you LIED to during your press briefing. YOU said "Donald Trump has done something no other administration has been able to do...got the
2/10 Iranians to talk about their nuclear program and perhaps commit to not having 1...this has never happened before by any other administration". IF you were in front of a Congressional hearing and spoke those words you would immediately be hit with PERJURY because you are full
3/10 of SHIT! You seem to conveniently forget what Trump did during the VERY first month of Trump's FIRST term...he TORE UP the Iranian Nuclear Deal, mainly because he HATED President Obama and tried to destroy EVERYTHING he accomplished during his two terms, all due to Trump's

An 8-step, dead-simple algorithmic trading framework billion hedge fund managers follow: 
1/ The idea
Look for market anomalies that repeat.
Your strategy should be based on some economic rationale. In other words, “using machine learning” is not a trading strategy.

The LinkedIn job hunting demo is the most relatable one.
The agent goes through a real LinkedIn application flow:
* Finds a role
* Opens the form
* Uses the resume
* Fills the required fields
* Stops before Submit
That last part matters.
The agent does the boring work.
The final decision stays with the user.

The car search demo shows the same thing in a more everyday workflow.
Instead of opening 12 tabs, comparing listings, checking details, going back and forth…
The agent handles the search flow inside the browser and brings back the useful information.
Not flashy.
Just useful.

Bernie Sanders, notable Jewish Supremacist, is furious that Vladimir Putin saved Ukrainian kids from the Epstein regime
Epstein files revealed that Ukraine was his backyard where he found kids to rape. The west will never forgive Putin for shutting down their sick operation

Ukraine was notorious for child trafficking pre 2022
Another moment of amnesia for the west. Epstein took advantage of the instability created by the fascist Ukrainian regime bombing ethnic Russians in the Donbas region. Operating heavily in the country
Putin relocated these kids from the war zone and the west charged him with war crimes for taking the children they planned to smuggle away

It’s sick how the west, including progressives like Bernie Sanders is trying to quickly bury the Epstein files out of the consciousness of Americans
We seen the files Bernie. We know what your favorite nazis in Ukraine were doing you scumbag

The Tragedy of the Millennials is that we grew up at the apex of the American Empire before the Global Digital Hegemon took over. An analog, affluent, and relatively gentle youth and adolescence has devolved into a never-ending series of "generational" calamities in adulthood.
In short: our lives have been one giant rug-pull. But what makes it worse is that we actually believed all the bullshit. In "E Unibus Pluram" David Foster Wallace predicted that Gen X's postmodern nihilism would prompt a neo-sentimentalist backlash.

Infinite Jest was in part an attempt to bridge the gap to that new future. A quintessentially postmodern "high art" door stop of a book dedicated to plumbing the very depths of human experience in painstaking detail. The Millennials perfectly embody this Neo-Sentimentalism.
The Governor's property tax proposal was released roughly 24 hours ago.
The Legislature is expected to vote on it early next week.
For a proposal that could fundamentally restructure local government finance in Florida, that's warp speed.
As I see it, lawmakers have three options. Realistically, only two are viable. 🧵

2. Option #1: Gavel in. Gavel out.
I call this the responsible choice.
Tell the Governor this proposal is too important, too complicated, and too unfinished to rush onto the ballot and get members comfortable over the weekend.
Property taxes are not some obscure revenue source. They are the financial foundation of cities, counties, schools, fire districts, and local infrastructure.

3. You can support tax relief and still demand a serious plan.
These aren't contradictory positions. Florida has spent decades building local government around property taxes.
You don't remove a load-bearing wall and call it renovation.
Hope is not a strategy!

GPS—I know exactly who Spielberg has been meeting with since 2017, think Five Eyes (FVEY), after a New York Times article on the Pentagon’s UFO program (“Glowing Auras and ‘Black Money’”). Including trips to Germany, Brussels, Italy, the UK, and France.
The story was written by Spielberg, and the screenplay was written by longtime collaborator David Koepp.
🎬 The Spielberg Psyop: Deconstructing Disclosure Day
Let’s cut through the marketing fog. Disclosure Day, releasing June 12, 2026, isn’t some innocent return to Close Encounters nostalgia. This is a $115 million narrative weapon, and the target is far more specific than “entertainment.”

🔭 The Setup: What We’re Actually Watching
The plot skeleton is straightforward enough: Emily Blunt plays a Kansas City meteorologist whose live broadcast is hijacked—she becomes an involuntary conduit, speaking in tongues on air, relaying messages from something non-human. Josh O’Connor plays a whistleblower named Daniel Kellner who’s stolen classified data proving extraterrestrial contact. Colin Firth is the corporate/government antagonist trying to suppress disclosure. The central conflict: does the truth get released to all eight billion people simultaneously, or does it stay controlled by institutions?
Spielberg himself said it at CinemaCon: this film is “more truth than fiction.” Not speculation. He told audiences to bring a seatbelt. The screenwriter, David Koepp, went through 42 drafts—the most of his entire career, including Jurassic Park and War of the Worlds. You don’t do 42 drafts for a popcorn flick.

🎯 The Psychological Operation: Soft Disclosure and Ontological Conditioning
This is the core of what’s happening. The film functions on multiple levels simultaneously.
Level 1: Predictive Programming
Hollywood has always been the CIA’s preferred delivery mechanism for acclimating the public to paradigm shifts. Before the public accepts a new reality, they need to have already imagined it through fiction. This is basic psychological operations doctrine—reduce the shock of revelation by pre-exposing the population to the concept in a controlled, emotionally-managed format.
The timing is not subtle. The film arrives after:
- Congressional UAP hearings with whistleblowers testifying about “non-human biologics”
- Pentagon officials using the word “disclosure” in official briefings
- The documentary Age of Disclosure (directed by Dan Farah, who worked with Spielberg on Ready Player One) breaking streaming records on Amazon Prime within 48 hours
As X user @MarioNawfal noted: “Is this entertainment, or the first step in preparing the public for ontological shock?” It’s both. That’s the point.
Level 2: The Agnosticism Trap
Koepp explicitly laid out the theological agenda in his MovieMaker interview. He compared belief in aliens directly to belief in God, then declared: “the only reasonable position is agnostic.”
This isn’t casual musing. This is the philosophical payload. The film positions uncertainty as virtue and conviction as arrogance. By equating extraterrestrial intelligence with divine intelligence, the movie creates a framework where:
- Belief in God becomes equivalent to belief in aliens—both are “unseen entities”
- Religious faith is reframed as one possible interpretation among many
- The “reasonable” position is to admit you don’t know anything for certain
This is epistemological sabotage dressed as open-mindedness.

1. Run a Comparable Sales Analysis
"Act as real estate analyst. I'm looking at a property at [Address/Area] listed for [Price]. Pull comparable sales from the last 6 months within a 1 mile radius. Tell me if this property is overpriced, fairly valued, or a deal & by how much."

2. Calculate True Cash Flow
"Analyze the cash flow potential of this rental property: Purchase price [X], expected rent [X], property taxes [X], insurance [X], maintenance estimate [X], vacancy rate [X]%. Give me net monthly cash flow, cap rate, and cash-on-cash return."
