Fixin to show my ass to @ShakeyWaits (I'm a fanboy & avid listener) If you're an ecological coach or into the comment below, come and see. Let's go!

I dealt with this in class the other day and recognize it after the fact in MANY of the situations I deal with on the regular. Image
A Working Flank is often thought of as a synergistic state: a situation where dog and handler become one and move together.
A student of mine, a fine handler, has a "good" Working Flank. I could see it was shaky, but less experienced instructors would see it as fine; less ...
experienced handlers would "feel it as fine". (Your tennis coaches from your book).
Within the Working Flank there are additional entailments that are not visible or measurable, namely Initiative and Initiative Transfer.
A frequent problem with Attractors is entailment poverty.

In the past, and for years now, I've made a concerted effort to share names and faces of those killed in mass shootings, historic and deadly weather disasters, public health crises, terrorist attacks and wars. /1
It was after Hurricane Katrina that it really clicked -- the importance of humanizing the lives lost and better understanding the circumstances. What could have been done to prevent such a tragic loss of lives? What can we learn from this so more lives are not lost in vain? /2
Would red flag laws have been helpful? (The answer to that question is often YES, btw.) Was there enough warning? Were proper resources utilized when a threat was identified? Was care taken to mitigate losses? Were response structures adequate? /3

Ayy so I was reading my Bible — John 21,
and this moment happens after the resurrection.

Peter’s already seen Jesus alive…
but something still feels off.

Because the last time Peter and Jesus spoke —
Peter denied Him. Three times.

So Peter does what people do when they don’t know how to face failure.
He goes back to what’s familiar.

“I’m going fishing.”

Not random.
This is the life he had before the calling.
Before the miracles.
Before walking on water.

The others follow him.

They fish all night.

Nothing.

Morning comes — there’s a man on the shore.
“Throw the net on the other side.”

They do.

Instantly — nets full.

And Peter knows.

Not because of the fish.
Because it’s happened before.

Same miracle.
Same voice.

He doesn’t wait for the boat — jumps straight into the water and swims to Jesus.

Now here’s the detail most people rush past:

In my 9 years trading crypto,

This system has found me the most altcoins, some of those have even gone 100x.

Altcoin Discovery System:

The Multi-Source Scanning Framework Image
This is a 7 part system.

The goal is to identify abnormalities, not confirm that everything looks normal.

No single source tells the full story, but together they reveal what’s actually happening. Image

Set a hard timer for 2-3 minutes. When it goes off, close Twitter regardless of what you’re reading. Skim your timeline quickly, you’re looking for anything unusual.

Nine out of ten days, the timeline looks the same.

One out of ten days, something absurd is happening:

Confidence That Brings Peace! 🧵

How can we have peace in the midst of trials so heavy that we cannot see the way forward?
Years ago, I suffered intensely from panic attacks. At that time, I lived in constant fear that something was fundamentally wrong with me and that death was imminent.
While there were many reasons for that fear, the root was simple: I was not yet secure or perfected in the love of my Father.

There's ONE biohack that Huberman, Brecka & Rhonda Patrick all swear by.

It's not cold plunge. Not creatine. Not NAD+.

It costs $2/day & is the most proven way to protect your brain, fight depression & slow cognitive decline.

Here’s what it is, how it works, and how to use it: Image

Starting at age 30, your brain begins to shrink.

Your hippocampus (memory and learning center) deteriorates fastest.

Most people accept this as inevitable.

But a study of 1,575 brain scans found one nutrient that stops it: Image
Image
Omega-3 fatty acids. Specifically EPA and DHA.

The Framingham Heart Study found higher omega-3 blood levels = significantly larger brain volume and larger hippocampi.

This held true even after adjusting for age, education, and cardiovascular risk factors. Image

Malignant narcissist are so confident they can get away with anything, or if they do get caught, that they can manipulate their way out of it, that their crimes becoming increasingly brazen and reckless.
They begin to feel invincible, believing their charm, lies, and manipulation will always shield them from consequences.
Cont.
The overconfidence of malignant narcissists makes them more dangerous because as they believe they can manipulate their way out of any situation, they become increasingly abusive toward their victims. This arrogance leads them to escalate th harmful behaviors, pushing boundaries and engaging in more severe forms of psychological, emotional, or even physical abuse. They take greater risks, knowing that their manipulation has worked in the past, which emboldens them to gaslight, lie and manipulate with even more intensity.
Cont
However, this same arrogance and recklessness can also be the narcissist's downfall. As they grow more confident in their ability to escape consequences, they often make mistakes, overestimating their control over a situation, or leaving behind evidence of their wrongdoing.
Their belief that they are untouchable can cause them to underestimate others, leading to sloppy actions that expose their lies.
This hubris becomes their weakness, as it leaves them vulnerable to being caught in their own web of deception, especially when others begin to see through the facade or when they encounter a situation they can no longer control.

Most people overcommunicate. They ramble. The dive into the weeds. They lose their audience. And in doing so, lose their credibility. Change how you think and you'll change what you say. And how you say it. Headlines. Punchlines. Here's my 5-step formula to find your voice:
Step 1: Define Winning

Before anything else, answer this question:

"I win if [who] does [what]?"

Example: "I win if my VP approves additional headcount."

Without a target, you're shooting from the hip. With it, you're building a targeted case.
Step 2: Empty Your Mind

Write out every single detail.

Don't filter. Don't prioritize. Don't edit.

Yes, all 27 things. Empty your brain completely.

This step feels counterintuitive. It's not. A clear synthesis is hard to find in a cluttered mind.

In this clip, James D. Tabor and Derek discuss the scholarly view that Revelation may have originally been a jewish apocalyptic text later Christianized. The Greek suggests a Semitic thinker behind it, and references to Jesus often appear as later insertions into phrases that already read naturally without them.

If so, it means one of Christianity’s most important prophetic texts ultimately preserves and promotes a fundamentally jewish eschatological framework.
BTW, this shows plain as day that what I’ve been saying about what Rev 2.9 and Rev 3.9 are actually about is correct. Revelation is a jewish apocalyptic text, and those verses are aimed at proto replacement theology. It was written by an ethnically Jewish Christian who grew up in Israel, possibly Cerinthus, an Ebionite judaizer who remained Torah observant and did not teach that Jesus was part of a trinity, but a human teacher.

So when the text says people who “say they are jews and are not,” it is being written by an extremely jewish author responding to churches that were increasingly claiming the old covenant was finished. The point is that Yahweh will make those replacement theology types bow and recognize that God loved the jews.

It is not Jesus predicting that in the future there will be fake jews claiming to be real jews. Jesus isn't even originally in the text at all.

Think about how crazy that is. These idiots quote Rev 2.9 and Rev 3.9 all day long like it supports them, when the passage is literally directed against them.
This also shows how jewish this tradition is. Our people have been obsessed with the idea of a great end times war between Rome and Persia, reframed thousands of different ways for every generation for nearly 2,000 years. It would be hard to point to a more psychologically destructive book for our people over these centuries, constantly viewing world politics through the lens of the Book of Revelation.

This is exactly why this kind of material needs to be heavily controlled. It is obvious religious fraud and should not be treated as sacred, but recognized for what it really is which is jewish religious propaganda.

1/9 Every bulk RNA-seq experiment I run goes through the same 7 checks before I trust the results.

I've been burned enough times to know: if you skip QC, you will find out the hard way. Usually during a meeting with your collaborator.

Here's my checklist:
2/9 Check 1: FastQC + MultiQC on raw reads.

Before anything else. You're looking for adapter contamination, GC bias, per-base quality drops, and overrepresented sequences.

I've caught entire lanes of garbage data at this step. Five minutes that saves you days.
3/9 Check 2: Mapping rate.

After alignment (STAR, HISAT2, whatever you use), check the percentage of uniquely mapped reads. I want to see >70% for most human/mouse experiments.

Low mapping rate? Could be contamination, wrong reference genome, or your library prep went sideways.

🧵 Why is it so important to properly understand the nature of this war and the definition of victory?
Trump sees the Russian invasion of Ukraine as a war over territory. Russia occupies the entire Luhansk region and about 80–85% of the Donetsk region, which leads him to conclude that Ukraine has already lost the war and is only unnecessarily prolonging its inevitable end
Trump cannot (or does not want to) understand that this is not a war over territory but over Ukrainian statehood. Russia seeks to subordinate Ukraine, and so far this war has been a strategic failure for Moscow. Hence, there is no reason to believe that Russia is winning
