BOMBSHELL: @rustyrockets' explosive interview with ex-State Dept. official @MikeBenzCyber exposes CIA's deep ties to Google & the shadow government. Everything you need to know about this shocking interview: 🧵Image
The story of the CIA's influence on global politics, media, and tech is a complex web of power and manipulation. It began after World War II, with the establishment of the "rules-based international order" and organizations like the UN, IMF, and World Bank. Image
In 1947, the CIA was created under the "plausible deniability" doctrine, allowing covert actions without attribution to the U.S. government. The Department of War was renamed the Department of Defense to suggest a more defensive posture. Image

Todays #PMQs shows why Sunak's latest Vote-for-Me-or-it's-World-War-Three "relaunch", just like the many resets before it, is doomed to fail. A short 🧵 1/
Here is the basic issue: Tory MPs, at every level, look at the same polls we do and they are desperate. That panic is poor counsel. They will get more tribal, noisier, more aggressive, baser. They will reach for personal attacks, for culture wars, for stunts, for cheap digs. 2/
In today's #PMQs, the biggest noise came when the PM made a cheap jibe about Sue Gray. "MORE MORE MORE" his MPs chanted, as he tried (and failed) to pivot to cosplaying a grown-up.

For "trust us, we are serious people" to work, actually being serious people is a precondition. 3/

Hollywood writers used to churn out memorable, era-defining TV shows. Because they had a proven system.

A system that culminated in the “Golden Age” of TV between 1999 - 2015. (During which some of the best series off all time were made).

This is a 🧵 on how & why it worked.👇
First, there are 3 things you need to understand about TV:

1. Zero Network TV series can get made without an experienced Showrunner. ZERO.

2. There is a proven path to become a Showrunner as a writer.

3. The Showrunner is the single most powerful person in Hollywood.
If you have an idea for a TV show & don’t have a Showrunner attached, your show will never get made.

This is also why when a writer has ONE hit show… they end up having half a dozen shows within a few years.

Think Shaunda Rhimes, Ryan Murphy and Taylor Sheridan.

A little thread on how I turned 2.5 Sol into close to around 400k in a few months...first thread so will probably be scuffed.

Started with $NUB. Had .5 Left in my wallet after a down only month and basically wiping out my entire portfolio (close to 30-40k)
@etherintern had found $NUB minutes after launch and posted in our private group with little to no info but the thesis at the time was volume alone, which we quickly did some research and realized the artist had been creating memes with this cat for years on multiple social medias
I bought .5 Sol at around 500k and watched it run up to 2.5M with in 15-30 minutes. Decided I was gonna buy 2 more sol to chuck into nubcat. Think I ended up making close to around 100 Sol off $NUB (roundtripped a huge portion of it)

If you get less than 4000 steps a day read this:
The average American gets anywhere between 2k to 4k steps per day.

Our hunter gatherer ancestors they got 16 to 17k steps a day.

Walking is one of the most important activities you could do for your brain & body.

Not getting enough can lead to serious consequences.
Not getting enough steps throughout the day can lead to:

• Anxiety
• Depression
• Weight gain
• Heart disease
• Slower recovery
• Increased stress
• Lack of creativity
• High blood pressure
• Decreased brain activity

Home builder sentiment collapsed in May.

Down 12% month over month. To an index level of 45.

This level of sentiment is well below the long-term norm and suggests sluggish housing market conditions in H2 2024.

Watch out for more aggressive builder price cuts as year goes on to clear excess inventory.Image
1) Builder sentiment is declining because of subdued buyer demand conditions to go along with rising inventory levels.

For example - the supply of completed, unsold homes on builder lots is now at the highest level in 13 years.

Source: US Census Bureau Image
2) Moreover - builders are now starting to face significant supply competition from the re-sale market.

With the inventory of re-sale homes skyrocketing in states like Florida, Arizona, Texas, and Georgia - the exact states that builders are most active in.

Mavs-OKC Game 5 notes👇

Mavs responded great in G5 in LA vs Clippers in round 1. I remember writing after that game it was one of the most mature games in Luka's career, this will be needed tonight as well.

Mavs will need to play with much more poise in G5 than they did in G4.
Luka needs to be aggressive & poised in the paint. He was 5/10 in G3 vs OKC,8/10 in that G5 vs LAC. 1/5 in G4 vs OKC.

Dort started going under his screens in G5 (10 times in G4, once in each of G1-G3), so making a pull-up 3 would be a godsend.
Another adjustment OKC did was blitzing Kyrie much more.

DJJ is only 1/8 from the corners in this series. So Mavs responded by using DJJ as screener for Kyrie more (most in this series). DJJ made some good plays on short roll, but this is what OKC wants, ball in DJJs hands.

Every bit as funny as, “It’s past your jail time, Donald.”
Dealing with Trump is actually easy. He’s not normal. So you don’t treat him as normal.

You treat him like the nut job he actually is. But you do it with humor.
He won’t be able to handle it.

He’s a narcissistic sociopath.

He will make Captain Queeg and Colonel Jessup look like pikers.

And it will be glorious to watch.
