A Quatrain Poem🧵in 10 parts
People often think about Heaven, but not Hell: whose fuel is Men & stone
a fiery pit 70 years deep, in which even the Sun & Moon will be thrown
Jahannam is a horrific prison where the evil are punished for their sin
& Shirk-doers who didn’t repent will burn forever within

On Resurrection Day, Hell will be dragged towards Earth on 70,000 ropes

Descriptions of phenomena are limited. The rubber hits the road once a theory is proposed. That fifty years of climate science is being denied at the highest level of our politics seems absurd,
...and I say this in anticipation of another summer where wildfire smoke is going to ruin many days that we patiently waited for all winter. It's not a case of mass stupidity — it goes deeper into the unconscious.

What's happening on the northern border of 🇺🇦Ukraine?
We know this dilemma has likely kept you all awake at night lately, so this short thread will cover recent events in this often-forgotten part of the frontline.
🇷🇺Russian cross-border actions have particularly intensified in three areas in Sumy and Kharkiv oblasts.
Russian forces are carrying out a deliberate small-scale "infiltration" campaign in these sections of the border, labeled "buffer zones" by their 🇷🇺domestic media and milbloggers.

Russian forces are carrying out a deliberate small-scale "infiltration" campaign in these sections of the border, labeled "buffer zones" by their 🇷🇺domestic media and milbloggers.
The western-most infiltration is near Sopych, in Sumy oblast: the first indicators of 🇷🇺Russian activation here appeared in early-March, later confronted by elements of the 🇺🇦210th Assault Regiment in cooperation with the 🇺🇦2nd Battalion, 33rd Assault Regiment.
The 🇷🇺Russian units involved are not fully clear at the moment.
While positional fighting and strikes have continued since, the estimated area of Russian control here has not expanded.

While positional fighting and strikes have continued since, the estimated area of Russian control here has not expanded.
Shifting east, past the Sumy "bulge", is a larger infiltration area spanning all the way from Myropils’ke to Hrabovske - approximately 40 kilometers in a straight line.
Initial 🇷🇺Russian movement into Hrabovske began in late December, with invading forces kidnapping and relocating all civilians that remained in the village.
The contested area expanded northwards in March and April, to include Pokrovka and Novodmytrivka.
The 🇺🇦Ukrainian response, coordinated by the 14th Army Corps, initially consisted of light Territorial Defence and Border Guards units.
More recently, the 🇺🇦157th Mechanized Brigade and elements of the 🇺🇦120th Recon Regiment joined the fight near Pokrovka and Hrabovske respectively.

RE: My Rant on Thomas Massie Supporters
[THIS POST IS DIRECTED AT MASSIE SUPPORTERS AND NO ONE ELSE.]
I am sick and tired of Massie supporters stating how “disappointed” they are at me for calling out his constant perfidy.
I oppose Massie precisely because I so strongly support conservatism.
Massie always TALKS a good conservative game, but when push comes to shove and actual ACTION is needed, he is the Democrat’s best friend.
Don’t cite some rating agency’s “conservative score” for Massie in a feeble attempt to contradict me. When his vote is not needed, he votes conservative. But when his vote IS needed, he grandstands as the toxic narcissist he is, mumbles about his precious “principles,” and then ensures that things go the Democrat’s way.
Politics requires some level of compromise. Always has. Always will. Anyone who refuses to ever compromise does the bidding of the people he/she disagrees with. Massie talks about supporting Republicans while his actions and inactions (the ones that actually matter) support Democrats.
And Epstein? Show me what Massie has done that actually holds criminals accountable on the Epstein matter. And guess what? Criticizing Massie on his disgusting exploitation of Epstein victims for his own personal gain does not make me a “pedophile protector,” you ignorant, libelous tools.
There is a reason that the New York Times, rabid Marxist Ro Khanna and Crazy Candace Owens all support Thomas Massie. If you are a Massie supporter, I adjudge you as being indistinguishable from the NYT, Khanna and Crazy Candace.
That’s the company you keep, you conservatism-hating Massie supporters.
Don’t like it? Don’t follow me. Go follow the Krassensteins, as that’s where your beliefs align as a practical matter. Now beat it.
(And no, Israel did not pay me $7,000 to post this, you paranoid antisemitic monsters.)

P.S.: There is a reason Thomas Massie illegally blocks me on his official X account.
He does not care about the rule of law. He only cares about Massie.
He does not care about the rule of law. He only cares about Massie.
Thus far, the "refutations" attempted by Massie supporters to my post consist of the following "arguments":
1. I'm paid by Israel.
2. I don't understand conservatism.
3. Citing legislation he never got passed as if it did get passed.
4. Claiming I'm "wrong" with zero supporting evidence.
There is a reason Massie attracts these people. They are low-IQ ideologue rubes who buy Massie's snake oil pitch because it makes them feel "virtuous" in the same way virtue-signaling Democrats shut down debate.
Massie and these fools are a match made in Heaven.

In the Novopavlivka-Ivanivka area west of Pokrovsk, Russia is trying to capture ukrainian strongholds in the region.
They have a lot of difficulties due to the number of ditches, fortified lines and rivers. In Novopavlivka, infiltration attempts continue without much success.
On the first (unfinished) fortified line, russian forces are trying to cross under fire the ditches (more than 100 bodies are lying there) and constantly manage to advance to Ivanivka before getting destroyed.

The Dolmen of Menga in Antequera, Spain, represents a profound challenge to mainstream, linear archaeology. Built around 3800–3600 BCE, more than a thousand years before the Great Pyramid of Giza, it features 32 colossal stones weighing a total of 1,140 tons, with a single ceiling capstone weighing an astonishing 150 to 180 tons.
The landmark Science Advances (2024) high-resolution laser scan study revealed that Menga’s builders possessed an incredibly advanced understanding of geology, physics, geometry, and astronomy. They embedded one-third of the vertical stones deep into the bedrock, angled them slightly inward to form a highly earthquake-resistant trapezoidal shape, and carved the massive capstones to be slightly convex, deploying the earliest known use of a stress-relief arch in human history.
When we decode why the ancients engineered this massive underground stone matrix, it becomes clear that they were not building a primitive cemetery; they were anchoring themselves against a planet-wide geomagnetic excursion event. Not hard to figure out IYKYK

2. Mainstream archeology is deeply puzzled by Menga's orientation. Standard European dolmens are aligned to track sunrise during the solstices or equinoxes. Menga breaks this cultural baseline entirely, shifting its central symmetry axis to a highly anomalous 45 degrees northeast.
I am not.
The Mountain Target: The axis points with millimetric precision directly to the northern cliff of La Peña de los Enamorados (Lover’s Rock), a nearby mountain that strikingly resembles a giant human face looking up at the sky.
The Tectonic Antenna: The mountain is not just an aesthetic landmark; it is a massive, exposed, high-susceptibility paramagnetic and limestone fault outcropping. By locking the central axis of the underground stone chamber to this specific geological mountain node, the builders created a macroscopic piezoelectric and telluric current antenna. IYKYK

3. The Science Advances petrographic analyses revealed that Menga was built using calcarenite, a poorly cemented, porous detrital sedimentary rock. Centralized engineering labels this "soft stone" and questions why the builders chose it over harder rock variants.
Through my lens of sub-molecular physics, this choice represents masterful material selection by the Early Spanish humans:
The High-Surface-Area Sponge: Calcarenite is inherently packed with millions of microscopic, water-retaining pore cavities. Under the damp, earthen tumulus mound that encapsulates the dolmen, these soft stones absorb ground moisture, loading the internal mineral lattices with structured water.
The Solid-State Capacitor: As telluric currents surge up from the local Guadalhorce River valley fault zones, this wet, porous, mineralized calcarenite matrix acts as a massive dielectric capacitor. It draws in the erratic, high-voltage electrostatic charges tearing across the landscape during an active magnetic excursion, storing the energy and smoothing out the spikes so they do not short-circuit the biology of the humans inside. My thesis links this knowledge to the Maya via the Spanish conquests via oral history telling.
