In January 2026 alone, russia launched over 6,000 strike drones against Ukraine. This is the scale of the threat our country faces every night.
From the characteristic sound of the first Shaheds to the latest jet-powered versions — the enemy is constantly evolving. However, Ukrainian defense is changing even faster.

A 1913 paper trail from Bitola shows how poverty, politics, and propaganda collided. 📜❄️
Refugees. Firewood. A British consul. Serbian officials. Accusations flying.
The details are messy, and very human.

Belgrade, Nov 23, 1913: Serbia’s Ministry of Internal Affairs briefs the PM and Foreign Minister.
Reason: reports of “a lot of poor people” in Bitola and nearby villages.

Bitola’s municipal court reports 18 refugee families, arrived from Sop, Kičevo county.
Some get help when they ask, on top of the local poor already under the court’s responsibility.
A small, specific number, not a vague “crowds.” 🔽

There are AT LEAST 4 distinct topics in the "UBI" debate:
1. is it moral to tax productive people to fund UBI? (no)
2. will AI render 50+% of ppl unemployed? (yes)
3. will society - inc. AI billionaires - converge on UBI? (yes)
4. will this lead to everyone flourishing? (no)

yes, I have read your paleo-libertarian manifesto re
* taxation is evil
* akshually the poor should just switch to being personal servants / skilled craftspeople
* at the very least we should force them to dig ditches
no, I am not convinced
no, none of that will happen

I entirely agree with everyone who has said that 50+% of people will spend their lives stoned on weed and videogames
I agree that this stinks
...but already 10-20% of people do this via non-universal basic income (welfare, gov jobs, sinecures, "disability")

Everyone's talking about the AI data center buildout like it's just a money problem. It's not. There are 5 distinct hard constraints stacked on top of each other — and solving one just reveals the next.
Why there is no way the US can unlock 100GW of AI compute by 2030.
Why there is no way the US can unlock 100GW of AI compute by 2030.
First, the scale of the gap.
The US has ~50 GW of data center capacity online today. Bain and McKinsey both put demand at ~100 GW by 2030.
That means adding ~10 GW per year for 5 years straight. The record year so far? About 2.5 GW actually delivered. We need 4x that. Every year.

Constraint #1: Grid interconnection.
Lets assume this gets solved with an interuptible tariff.
Data centers get a "qualified" yes which requires them to curtail 100-200 hours a year. Match with VPPs and you could see 10% rate decreases across the country.

What is RTM?
RTM captures institutional order flow.
Flow large enough to actually move indexes.
It's not dealer hedging flow, but there are similarities
(and it pairs really, really well with VS3D hedging data)
Here's what RTM is >>

RTM is a premium retail day-trading community and a proprietary algorithmic model known.
The signals from the model are streamed over a private Zoom call with live intraday commentary from both TC & Scotty.

Alongside the RTM model we stream the VS3D intraday SPX hedging profile, and I (VolSignals) provide access to my intraday commentary from VS Pro, and whenever possible- join the live conversation on stream too.
By appointing Kezia Dugdale as a trustee, Stonewall has both doubled the number of women on its board of trustees (the other one being Jake Graf), and increased the number of women who know they are women from zero to one.
There are still more trans activists on Stonewall's board (three: Ayla Holdom, Jake Graf and Clare Fielding) than actual women (two including Jake Graf, a trans activist).
Stonewall claims a third woman trustee on its website, Dunni Alao, but according to Companies House she stood down as a director in February 2025. It would seem odd, to put it mildly, to stand down as a director but not as a trustee. stonewall.org.uk/about-us/leade…
IS THE IRAN DEAL ON OR OFF?
Araghchi & Trump say Hormuz is open. Ghalibaf says no. IRGC is restricting ships.
And Trump’s many statement since suggest a done deal.
What we're watching is not the deal but the the Art of the Deal.
"I'm doing it my way" - doing what?🧵

The most contested thing in policy and geopolitics isn’t always substance, it’s the frame.
Win the frame, and you gain the upper hand.
Iran briefly controlled it during the chaos of the kinetic phase, but now Trump appears to be taking it back.

Shoutout to @AmericanDebunk who analyzed this very well (link below).
Trump is framing U.S. nuclear terms as a done deal, not a proposal. He's moved from talking about the terms to HOW the uranium will be collected.
That’s the play: raise the cost for Iran to walk away.

DERMATOLOGY HAS KNOWN FOR OVER A CENTURY THAT LIGHT IS MEDICINE
Then somewhere along the way, they decided the only thing that mattered was how to block it
Here is the true story of how that happened, what got lost, and what you need to know as summer arrives

FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE
Before the germ theory of disease was even fully accepted, Florence Nightingale figured something out that most hospitals still ignore
She wrote: "It is the unqualified result of all my experience with the sick, that second only to their need of fresh air is their need of light... it is not only light but direct sunlight they want."
And this wasn't about mood. She was explicit: "People say the effect is only on the mind. It is no such thing. The effect is on the body, too."
She redesigned hospital wards to face south and let in direct sun. Mortality dropped
This was 1859. She had no mechanism. She just watched outcomes.

NIELS FINSEN
In the 1890s, a Danish physician named Niels Finsen changed everything
Finsen had a severe chronic illness, now identified as Niemann-Pick disease, that left him weak and homebound.
His frailty made him unusually tuned in to environmental influences on his own body.
He noticed that brief exposure to bright northern sunlight improved his energy. Extended time indoors made him worse
So he started asking: what if specific wavelengths of light, properly dosed, could be used as medicine?
He experimented with electric arc lamps, quartz lenses, and filters to isolate biologically active UV wavelengths.
And then he tested it on the most disfiguring skin disease of the era: lupus vulgaris, the skin form of tuberculosis, for which there were no antibiotics and essentially no treatments
It worked
His light therapy cleared the lesions
In 1903, Niels Finsen was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine
He later wrote: "Light acts as a kind of nutrient, an essential stimulus without which the organism languishes."

I personally think the question of Lok Sabha seat reapportionment (aka 'delimitation') is an opportunity for a grand bargain. Let me explain. #thread
Those who oppose it see seat reapportionment as a nuisance, a problem that cannot be resolved, and they offer no better solution than to push it back by another 25 years, as was done in 2001. Let sleeping dogs lie.
The conventional framing is that southern states are being punished for development. They might lose seats, lose voice, and lose fiscal transfers. All have some truth. But the response to oppose it is a lost opportunity.

NIKOLA TESLA SAID "3-6-9 IS THE KEY TO THE UNIVERSE."
I tested it for 90 days on 500 people.
What happened will reshape how you manifest forever.
Here's the REAL 369 method nobody's teaching:

What most people teach:
Write your affirmation 3 times in the morning.
6 times in the afternoon.
9 times at night.
That's the surface version.
It works sometimes.
But Tesla wasn't talking about writing sentences.
He was talking about FREQUENCY PATTERNS.
Here's what he actually meant and how to use it properly.

But Tesla wasn't talking about writing sentences.
He was talking about FREQUENCY PATTERNS.
Here's what he actually meant and how to use it properly.
The REAL 369 method:
3 = the THOUGHT (mental plane)
6 = the FEELING (emotional plane)
9 = the ACTION (physical plane)
All three must align for manifestation to complete.
Most people do 3 (think about it).
Some do 3 + 6 (think + feel it).
Almost nobody does 3 + 6 + 9 (think + feel + ACT from it).
That's why most manifestations stay in the "almost" zone.
