Cuando la FAA te dice “cuidado” sobre el Pacífico frente a México, no está hablando de clima. Está hablando de poder. Siete NOTAMs piden “exercise caution” por actividad militar (y posible interferencia GNSS) hasta el 17 de marzo.🧵 Image
Un NOTAM no es un tuit: es señal operativa para aviación. Traducción: “puede haber cosas volando, cosas cayendo o señales engañando”. Y el aviso aplica “a todas las altitudes”, incluso en aproximaciones y despegues.
El mapa importa: Pacífico junto a México + corredores hacia Panamá + costas de Colombia y Ecuador. Esa franja es autopista de tráfico marítimo, narco-rutas y vigilancia. Cuando se militariza el mar, se reordena la región sin pedir permiso.

[THREAD] We’ve been asking the wrong question about UFO

The strongest evidence isn’t in blurry footage or official statements.

It’s embedded in ancient history. Image
Across the world, ancient civilizations produced structures that modern engineering still struggles to explain.

Not because they are old ,
but because of their precision.

Stone cut and fitted to tolerances that should not exist for their time.
Sites like Giza, Baalbek, Puma Punku, and Machu Picchu pose the same problem.

Different cultures.
Different continents.
Similar results.
Massive stone blocks.
Perfect joins.
Astronomical alignment.

The Larkin Dolphin Protocol is a science-based framework developed by marine researcher Shawn Larkin for facilitating ethical, voluntary interactions between humans and wild dolphins (and other cetaceans like whales). It draws from decades of field observations,
particularly in dolphin hotspots such as Costa Rica's coastal waters, and emphasizes mutual respect, animal autonomy, and naturalistic engagement to gather behavioral data while supporting conservation efforts.
Unlike traditional research methods
that might involve captivity or intrusive tracking, protocol prioritizes extended, non-coercive encounters—such as humans bow-riding underwater alongside dolphin pods—to mimic interspecies social dynamics observed in the wild, like those between bottlenose and other dolphins. Image

Bitcoin is creeping back toward $100K and most people aren’t ready.

The 4-year cycle narrative is fading.
Gold’s multi-year setup before its 2025 breakout reveals something critical.
The Iranian rial’s collapse reveals the end game.

2026 might get wild 🧵👇 Image
Every cycle-trained Bitcoiner is asking the same question:
Is this just another bear market rally before the real crash?

That question made sense in a world of clean four-year rhythms.
But that world may already be gone.
The missing piece in 2025 wasn’t demand.
It was expectations.

No blow-off top.
No euphoric frenzy to punish.
Capital didn’t leave Bitcoin.
It paused.

That distinction changes everything.

This is a recent update from the man with terminal COPD who was able to cure it with nebulized DMSO.

He is mostly recovered now, his doctor admits he's improved, and many others have also reported similar results for asthma, severe COPD, and other "incurable" lung disease.🧵
Here I reveal:
•The extensive data and clinical trials showing DMSO can reverse numerous severe respiratory disorders
•How many readers and physician readers have now cured "incurable respiratory disorders"
•How DMSO is used to do heal the lungs.
midwesterndoctor.com/p/dmso-heals-t…
For example, this 2022 study showed a month of DMSO caused most asthma and COPD patients to regain normal respiratory function.

Colleagues using DMSO to treat their lung patients report identical results. Image

In Dem states, illegal immigrants receive welfare, attracting them to the state.

Lack of voter ID allows them to vote.

This creates an incentive for illegal immigrant voting.

But it's not just theory. It's election outcomes.

Illegals are swinging elections.

A thread. Image
Why do Democrats insist on providing welfare to illegal immigrants?

Why are they so hostile to voter ID laws?

In 2024, Trump won almost every state that required voter ID.

He also won almost every state that did not provide welfare to illegal immigrants.

In contrast, Kamala won almost every state that did NOT require voter ID.

And she won almost every state that DID provide welfare to illegal immigrants.Image
For voter ID laws, almost all states had election outcomes that aligned with the policies.

Strict voter ID law states went to Trump almost every single time.

Likewise, effective no-ID law states went to Harris almost every single time.

Only 8 of 51 states did not. (DC included.)Image

I want to tell a story about enabling, and why I have no patience for the "let's forgive and move on" mentality about how to deal with MAGA supporters when all this ends.
I hesitated to tell this story because I didn't want to drag family secrets out in the open, or sound harsh about my late grandmother, whom I loved dearly, but I think it's worth hearing 🧵 (1)
My uncle was a drug addict from about 1984 until 1991/2. He would get sober, then fall off the wagon, get sober again, and fall off the wagon. Happened over and over again.
My family would do the bare minimum to try to get him clean because they were both embarrassed by his addiction and feared trying to end it would tear the family unit apart. Plus, my grandmother would call off the dogs. She was extremely protective of her youngest child. (2)
My family tried appealing to their love for him, saying, "We love you, please stop hurting yourself like this," but that didn't work. They tried telling him that he would keep losing jobs, but since my grandmother paid his bills, that didn't work. Instead, they made excuses. His first wife left him (to get clean), he lost a good job, and my grandfather died. All those things, they said, made him an addict. It's not his fault. (3)

We've also never had a real convo about the fact that Biden really did try to go as progressive as he possibly could & not only did the center punish him, the left punished him too. B/c it was never enough. These people aren't just a curse on Dems. They're a curse on progress.
If you actually go out & talk to voters, you will never hear the end of this sentiment: "Biden campaigned as a moderate; went too far left as POTUS." I'm talking about people who voted for Harris. It's what they believe.
Here's the thing: Maybe people wouldn't have this perception if more progressives had actually stood by Biden. Cheered him on. "Yay for progress!" But these narcissistic chuckleheads didn't do that, did they? No they just complained "not good enough."

2026 is the year of the creator on 𝕏.

We closed 2025 with the highest payouts since our monetization program launched and we are just getting started. This year, our focus is clear: empower creators to grow on 𝕏 and earn more.

Here is what we’ve already rolled out this year 👇
We have more than doubled the Revenue Sharing pool.

With the growth of 𝕏 Premium subscriptions in 2025, it’s only fair that we share this with our creators.

This increase unlocks significantly higher payout potential for creators across the platform.
We’ve also updated how payouts are calculated.

Revenue Sharing payouts are now based on Verified Home Timeline impressions, meaning your earnings are driven by real views from Premium users who see your posts in their Home feed.

This shift is about rewarding content that truly resonates: posts that consistently show up in timelines and spark discussion.

A more detailed earnings dashboard is coming soon to Creator Studio as well. Stay tuned.

The Dnipro campaign, from Kalanchak to Vosenssensk, 2022-2025 🇺🇦/🇷🇺

With this series of 42 historical maps, let's revisit one of the most unique military campaigns of the war in Ukraine 🇺🇦.

PART 1 : Analysis of Ukraine's southern front, february-march 2022

🧵THREAD🧵1/25 ⬇️
Feburary 23rd, 2022. More than 20 000 russian 🇷🇺 soldiers amass themselves on the border, facing around 500 ukrainian 🇺🇦 defenders.

Russian 58th, 49th and 22nd army are facing ~1 300 soldiers from the 58th motorized brigade (including 1 000 of whom are at the training ground of Oleshky sands).

This unit is the only one facing the russian invasion south of the Dnipro river. The closest reinforcements are in Mykolaiv (35th Marines), in Zaporizhia, Odessa or Mariupol (they are quite busy). A day before the invasion, 300 soldiers from the 58th motorized are repositioned to Henichesk and Chaplinka, to support the 137th Marine bataillon and border guards (200 soldiers in total).

Why so few men ? Because Ukraine thought Russia would attack in the Donbass, usually, 3 brigades should have been positionned in front of Crimea (the 93rd mechanized brigade was redeployed a week before to Kharkiv, and managed to save the city), only one was there and was not occupying border positions.Image
On the morning of the 24th, Russia launched massive air and missile strikes on ukrainian positions, radars, airport and air-defense.

The 58th motorized brigade moved from Oleshky sands to meet the russians while the 137th and border guards started fleeing to the bridges.

Russia strikes on to directions, with the 58th army attacking Henichesk and the 49th Kalanchak. Both armies were supported by numerous helicopters and planes.Image

This is a useful survey as far as it goes...but it is missing the key factor in the Iranian Revolution.

That is, _Food_Insecurity_.

Food insecurity is as much a cause of the Iranian Revolution as Regime hatred.

Iranian Revolution Food Insecurity🧵
1/
The predominant effect of a 1.4 million rial to the dollar hyperinflation combined with Regime Security Force public lockdown is the Iranian lower class has been set up to starve.

The lower class cannot go to work to get money to buy food.


2/
Nor can Iran's lower class budget the money it has to plan what food it can buy week to week because of inflation.

Iran's hyperinflation has gone on long enough that the Iranian lower class has traded everything it can barter, already, for food.

This is the Mk3 LST, an RN landing ship In 1952 the Admiralty was tasked to develop plans to turn this into a 'catapult aircraft ship' embarking up to 4 Venom jets on a 'one use only' basis during WW3.

Thread on the 'forgotten aircraft carriers' of the 1950s. Image
The CAM had its roots in 1941 where merchant ships carried a single 'one time only' Hurricane, launched by rocket catapult to provide air defence for a convoy to shoot down FW200 recce aircraft tracking convoys for German U Boats. Image
35 Merchant ships were converted this way, with 8 combat launches being recorded and 8 kills reported. The pilots had to bail out / ditch when the fuel was exhausted. The scheme was abandoned as escort carriers came on line by 1942. Image

1/ Donald Trump isn't the first person to be given someone else's Nobel Prize medal. The last recipient of an unearned Nobel medal was none other than Nazi propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels, at the instigation of Norwegian author Knut Hamsun. ⬇️ Image
Image
2/ Hamsun had won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1920. After Nazi Germany invaded Norway in April 1940, he became a strong supporter of the Nazi occupation, writing numerous highly Anglophobic articles blaming the British for fighting over Norwegian territory. Image
3/ He was also an enthusiastic admirer of Hitler, travelling to the Eagle's Nest to meet him. Hamsun wrote in 1940 that "the Germans are fighting for us", and later eulogised Hitler as "a warrior for mankind" and "a preacher of the gospel of justice for all nations".

ein muslimischer balkaner der sich islamisch gegen die anderen balkaner behaupten will jedoch gleichzeitig aber sich von türken abgrenzt oder sogar aktiv türkenfeindlichkeit betreibt wird politisch wie militärisch scheitern und den balkan an die christen verlieren.
ein muslimischer balkaner ist zumindest bis zu einem gewissen grad turkifziert. was ist denn ein nicht-turkifizierter albaner? genau ein christ. das ist so als würde ich als türke versuchen muslim zu sein und gleichzeitig die alte arabische expansion nach turkestan verteufeln.
und weil viele muslimische albaner sich das nicht eingestehen können und versuchen islamisch-albanisch zu sein und gleichzeitig türken zu hassen, landen sie unweigerlich in einem säkularen patriotismus der ihre aussagen „bei uns ist albanertum das wichtigste“ zur folge hat.

Thread on the Oppression by Iran's Islamic Regime

Since the Islamic Revolution in 1979, the regime in Iran has used strong methods to control its people. Right after taking power, they started arresting and punishing those who opposed them. Many political groups and individuals who did not agree with the new leaders faced quick trials and harsh sentences. This created a climate of fear where speaking out could lead to prison or worse.
Over the years, the government set up special forces like the Revolutionary Guards to watch over society. These groups helped the regime stay in power by stopping any signs of protest. In the early 1980s, thousands of people were executed without fair trials, showing how the leaders would do anything to silence dissent.

In the 1980s, during the war with Iraq, the regime increased its control inside the country. They used the war as a reason to arrest more people and call them enemies. Prisons became places of torture where guards beat and hurt detainees to get confessions. Many died from these abuses, and families were left without answers.

One of the worst events was in 1988 when thousands of political prisoners were hanged in secret. This massacre targeted people who had already been jailed for their beliefs. It showed the regime's willingness to kill its own citizens to protect its rule.

The 1990s brought more hidden killings by the regime. Intellectuals, writers, and activists who criticized the government disappeared or were found dead. These were called the "chain murders" because they happened one after another. The killers were linked to the intelligence services, proving the regime's direct role in these crimes.

Torture in prisons like Evin became common. Prisoners faced electric shocks, beatings, and long isolation to break their spirits. This not only punished individuals but also warned others not to oppose the leaders.

富裕層への裏道FIREルート

節約で青春時代を灰色にしない、非モテの為のFIRE上級バージョンとして

①ネットで稼ぐ(プログラム、在宅勤務、youtuber、note)
x
②東南アジア転生(インドネシア、タイ、ベトナム)
x
③女性に全部奢ってもらう(ワイ自身タイでは可能だった!)
(ちなみに実感として50歳でもモテるのでガンガン通用していける感じ。普通に美人にモテる。若者なら尚更に簡単)
x
④全額投資に突っ込む

という東南アジア異世界転生FIREバージョン可能だわ。これだと若い人生を灰色にせずお金を複利で回す事が可能。日本にいなくてアジア在住でネットで稼ぎ切るのがちょっと難易度あると思うけどね。

東南アジア転生は完全にモテがMAXを通り越して成層圏まで突き抜けるので、煩悩が消滅し尽くして株や仕事に売り込めるメリットがある
おぢが異様にモテるバグがある。

タイやインドネシアだと貧富の差がすごいので転がり込むところは天と地の差がありそう。スラムがすごい!タイのお姉さんはベンツ乗っていた。
日本人以外はちょっと、、、、というのは食わず嫌いというか人生すげー損してると思う。もちろん日本人女性はすげー魅力的だよ。

一方で自分の人生を何も変えない相手は虚構ね。存在しないのと同じ。アイドルもキャバクラの姉ちゃんも自分の人生を1ミリも変えない。

現実的に自分の人生を変えうる相手のみ存在する、実在すると思った方が自分の人生にとって都合は良い。

一緒に飯食って笑ってくれて心が通じる相手のみ自分の人生に実在する。それが外国人かどうかなんてどうでもいい事なんだ。少なくとも孤独な非モテのおぢにはね😂 だってその方が著しく人生楽しいぞ
よくも悪くも東南アジア系女性の方が愛が強い気がする。淡白な関係じゃない。観察するにインドネシアだとおじさんおばさんでもべったりひっついて、路上でずっとぐうたらしていたりする。人の距離が著しく近い。

日本人男性自体を憧れ要素を持ってるんだよな。肌が白い、賢さ、お金持ち

正直英語なんかよりもタイ語かインドネシア語を覚えた方がよっぽど人生のQOLが向上すると思う。

この辺5分か10分で身につくショボいスキルをかき集めた集大成な気がする。

出川イングリッシュ、Google翻訳、失敗を気にしない、海外に友人や一人で行ける
こんな感じかと。

株式市場と同じく東南アジア自体明確にバグが存在する世界。

Chermont moet één van de aanwinsten worden van de winterse transferwindow voor Ajax. Wie is deze 19-jarige Braziliaanse rechtsback en wat zijn de voor- en nadelen van zijn komst richting Amsterdam? Image
Chermont staat met zijn slechts 19 jaar toch al op 50 wedstrijden in het eerste elftal van Santos, een indrukwekkend aantal voor zijn leeftijd. Daarbij moet wel één belangrijke nuance gemaakt worden: het gros van de wedstrijden in het eerste elftal speelde hij nog vóór de promotie naar het hoogste niveau. Sinds de promotie is hij wisselspeler geworden en kwam hij nog maar mondjesmaat aan spelen toe bij Santos.
Dit heeft enerzijds te maken met de grilligheid van Chermont, maar ook voor een aanzienlijk deel met de speelwijze van de trainer. De linksback speelt bij Santos een voorname rol in het aanvalsspel (in de persoon van Souza, die op het punt staat te verkassen naar Tottenham Hotspur), en zeker gezien de status van Santos als promovendus waren ze niet in staat om met twee offensieve backs te spelen. Vandaar dat Chermont veroordeeld werd tot een plek op de bank en dit seizoen ook zijn optredens bij de jeugdelftallen kende.

New York environmental groups like Third Act and Public Power NY are citing a new paper from a researcher at UPenn's climate and media group to denounce Gov Hochul's plans for new nuclear as an unaffordable fiasco.

The paper, by Joseph Romm, makes substantive mistakes and omissions. Here are some of my rebuttals, which are by no means complete, in the thread below. 1/Image
Image
Before I start, you can find Romm's paper at the link below. 2/ bpb-us-w2.wpmucdn.com/web.sas.upenn.…
On cost estimates for more large nuclear reactors:

Romm presents unrealistic cost estimates for the AP1000 nuclear reactor, the only large nuclear plant design that's on the table as potentially being built in New York, and the only nuclear plant design that has been built from scratch in America this century.

First, he asserts that "[a]ny new NY reactors are likely to cost the same or more than Vogtle’s." That is completely bonkers. Construction of Vogtle's first of two AP1000 reactors started before the reactor design itself was finalized. Not only that, the Fukushimi Daiichi accident in Japan led to regulatory changes that also required design and project changes mid-construction. But now two such plants have been built at Vogtle. The design is finalized and approved. Any new build project in NY would not suffer these first-of-a-kind problems.

Second, he disputes an estimate of $12,100/kW capital cost for another AP1000, a figure used by the New York State Energy Plan as a cost assumption. That's based on the high end of a 2024 estimate from a detailed MIT study specific to the AP1000 and the experience of Vogtle, and it bakes in cost reductions from various learnings in the construction since that project. But Romm disputes such reductions: "there’s no reason to believe there will be any learning gains" since Vogtle.

To argue the lack of any such learning gains in the AP1000, Romm cites a 2024 meta-analysis across technologies, which states, as Romm quotes, "It is important to note, however, that learning rates are not a guarantee on their own. Several countries have experienced little to no learning as more nuclear was deployed (e.g., the US)." But the very next sentence in the cited report qualifies that: "To materialize, learning needs to occur with a standardized design (with little or no variation between units), a consistent regulatory environment, and a robust supply chain and workforce." In other words, learning rates do materialize in the context of a standardized design like AP1000. In fact, a coauthor of this cited report, Koroush Shirvan, is the sole author of that MIT study focused on AP1000.

To summarize, Romm selectively quotes studies out of context in order to argue that new AP1000s in New York would absolutely not experience any reduction in cost since the over-budget fiasco of Vogtle, but the very research he cites to make these claims argue the opposite.

@licandro1 @AldoLema_uy Toda la línea de investigación de @mmellocosta y coautores es esclarecedora sobre la EEE del INE. A la luz de esta, sin dudas el principal desafío está en cómo los empresarios forman sus expectativas, y no en un problema de diseño de muestra o jerarquía de los respondientes.
@licandro1 @AldoLema_uy @mmellocosta Algunos agentes suelen esgrimir que la elevada persistencia de estas expectativas por sobre el objetivo (4,5%), incluso en estos años (2022-hoy) de clara y profunda desinflación, debe conducir a su abandono. Personalmente pienso todo lo contrario.
@licandro1 @AldoLema_uy @mmellocosta Tal como se expone en los trabajos referidos, los empresarios sí son sensibles a la inflación observada y la comunicación del BCU. Por lo tanto, lejos de abandonar su seguimiento, se debería reforzar el esfuerzo oficial para educar sobre la convergencia al objetivo.

Operation Schutzengel

Im Januar 2026 hat sich die Dynamik an der ukrainischen Front durch das Wirken von Robert „Magyar“ Brovdi grundlegend verändert.

🧵1/30 Brovdi, Kommandeur der 414. Brigade, hat mit der „Operation Schutzengel“ ein systematisches Programm zur Extraktion russischer Deserteure mittels Drohnentechnologie etabliert.

Unter Brovdis Führung nutzt die Ukraine technologische Überlegenheit, um russische Soldaten gezielt zur Kapitulation zu bewegen und sicher aus der Kampfzone zu evakuieren.Image
2/30

Die Operation wird primär von spezialisierten Einheiten wie der 414. Brigade gesteuert. Dabei kommen Drohnen zum Einsatz, die mit optischen Signalsystemen (blaues Blinklicht) ausgestattet sind, um kapitulationswillige Soldaten zu identifizieren.

​Ziel der Maßnahme: Russische Soldaten sollen sicher durch die eigenen, oft unkartierten Minenfelder geführt werden. Die Drohne fungiert hierbei als fliegender Lotse, der via Lautsprecher und Lichtsignalen direkte Anweisungen an den Überläufer übermittelt.
Um die Überlebenschance der Deserteure zu maximieren, hat Robert Brovdi ein Schutzprotokoll implementiert:
​Minenräumung: Begleitdrohnen nutzen LIDAR-Sensoren, um Oberflächenminen in Echtzeit zu detektieren. Ein Laser projiziert einen grünen „Safe Path“ direkt auf den Boden, dem der Soldat folgen kann.
​Abwehrfeuer: Im Orbit kreisende „Interception-Drones“ überwachen russische Stellungen. Sobald Sperrabteilungen das Feuer auf den Überläufer eröffnen, werden diese Positionen autonom neutralisiert. #Ukraine2026

Greek Genocide
1913 - 1923

The Genocide of the Greeks is the deliberate and systematic extermination, until 1923, of the Greek populations of Eastern Thrace and Asia Minor (mainly Ionia, Cappadocia, Pontus, Bithynia), beginning with the Massacre of the Economy on January 25, 1913, by the mechanisms of the Ottoman government of the nationalist Young Turks and the Turkish nationalist movement of Mustafa Kemal.
The genocide of the Greeks took place alongside genocides against other Christian populations of the Ottoman Empire, i.e. the Armenians and the Assyrians.
Estimates of human losses in the period from 1912 to 1922 reach according to some scholars to 800,000 - 1,200,000 souls.
In 1998, the Hellenic Parliament voted unanimously to declare September 14 as "the day of national remembrance of the Genocide of the Greeks of Asia Minor and Eastern Thrace by the Turkish State". The consideration of these events, which for decades were called by the Greeks the "Asia Minor Catastrophe", as genocide is a controversial point in Greece among historians, intellectuals and refugee organizations. Those who question the appropriateness of the term "genocide" belong to the mainstream of the community of Greek historians.

Reasons:

Political factors

The fate of the Greek populations of the Ottoman Empire, during the last decades of its existence, is directly linked to the peak of Turkish nationalism, as expressed by the ideology of the Young Turks. The movement of the latter, which broke out in 1908, was a decisive point in Turkish history and at the same time a station for the course of Hellenism in the country. The Greek Orthodox Christians of Asia Minor themselves in the last period of Ottoman rule identified themselves as "Romans" (Turkish: Rum), which indicated their Byzantine-Roman origin and their Greek Orthodox identity, the most basic component of which was the Christian faith, while they used the name "Greeks" for the nationals of the Greek state.
The title carried by the party of the Young Turks, "Union and Progress", was suitable to move all the nations of the Ottoman Empire, but without creating commitments for the Young Turks. But the optimistic interpretation of the term "Union", i.e. the unity of the subjects of the Empire, had been interpreted by the Young Turks as the assimilation of minorities with violent state intervention and not finally as a parallel peaceful existence. The plans for a mono-ethnic Turkish state were announced by the leader of the Neo-Turks, Nazim Bey, in an interview that was also published in "Athens", on 9/8/1908. In essence, many measures announced in favor of, in theory, equality, ultimately proved in practice to be means of oppression of the Greek subjects of the Empire, such as compulsory conscription and the removal of the privileges of the communities.
At the same time, the territorial shrinking of the Ottoman Empire caused a further rise in Turkish nationalism, while the country's minorities were treated with open hostility. During that period (1908-1912) a series of rebellions and wars broke out, such as with Italy and the Christian countries of the Balkans (First Balkan War).

Economic Factors:

An additional reason that caused the genocide was the economic factor. Much of the trade and industry had been concentrated in the hands of the Greeks, which was an obstacle to the Germans' quest to complete economic penetration of the underdeveloped Ottoman Empire. To this end, propaganda leaflets of the German Bank of Palestine, in 1915, urged the Turks not to have any economic relationship with Greeks and Armenians.
German military officers indicated the displacement of the Greek populations of eastern Thrace and Asia Minor, during World War I, with the aim of systematically planning the mass transportation of thousands of Greeks, theoretically for "military reasons", which in practice, aimed at their physical extermination.

👇Image
Phase I: 1913-1914

The prelude to these policies was the commercial blockade of the period 1909-1911, while in July 1913 a dictatorship was established by the New Turkish Committee. The beginning of generalized persecutions began at the end of 1913, with the end of the Balkan Wars, while the initial target was the Greek populations of Eastern Thrace. However, with the guidance of German advisors of the Ottoman Empire, from May 1914, the persecutions were also extended to western Asia Minor.

Mass displacement operations:

Programming and support from German consultants
The displacement of the Greek residents from these areas was done under the pretext of the security of the borders of the Ottoman Empire with Greece, with the parallel support of Germans. But the Greek state, at that time, was neutral in World War I, while King Constantine was pro-German. Nevertheless, the Greek communities, without exception, were considered suspicious by the Turkish authorities.
In an order of the Ottoman Government on May 14, 1914, which was leaked to the European press, instructions were given for carrying out the displacement of the Greek population, while they were reminded that the displaced had to sign certificates that they were voluntarily leaving their homes. For the displacements it seems that methods inspired by German advisers were used. Already at the end of 1913, the military administration of Turkey had been taken over by the German general Lyman von Saunders. The latter considered the removal of the Greek populations from the areas adjacent to Greece, namely the western coasts of Asia Minor, as imperative. The zone that had to be evacuated by the Greeks started from the area of Adramyttios, north, as far as opposite Samos, while it also included a few tens of kilometers inland.

Implementation:

The evacuation operation was coordinated and uniform in all the settlements. Initially, there was an organized anti-Greek campaign in the Turkish press and pressure was intensified to cause the voluntary flight of the Greek population. At the same time, armaments were given to the Turkish population, while the possession of weapons was forbidden to the Greeks. Also, a temporary gendarmerie was created, purely from Turks, to undertake the evacuation operation. Finally, those who did not manage to escape to Greece, which at that time received the first wave of refugees, were displaced to the interior of Asia Minor.
The total number of displaced people from western Asia Minor (before the Ottoman Empire entered World War I), according to the statistics of the Ecumenical Patriarchate, was 153,890 Greeks, in this phase of the persecutions. The Greek element was then expelled mainly from the region of Erythraia, Adramyttio, Dikeli, Pergamum and Phocaea. In fact, in Fokaia, the evacuation operation was accompanied by extremes and massacres against the civilian population.
On the other hand, the Hellenism of the large urban centers, Constantinople and Smyrna, was not displaced due to practical difficulties encountered in the project. But statements by Ottoman officials caused particular panic about the future of the communities of these urban centers, with the result that a large number left them. At the same time, the economic blockade, the persecution of specific personalities and the removal of the old privileges of the communities, created a climate of terrorism, while on August 22, the metropolitan palace in Smyrna was besieged which finally resulted in the exile of Metropolitan Chrysostomos by the Ottoman authorities. Characteristic of the abandonment was the decrease in the number of students in the Greek schools of Istanbul by 30%-40%

👇
Protests from the Greek Government:

The Greek reaction to the persecutions was expressed in a strong style with two verbal communications to the Ottoman authorities. Especially the second had the effect of postponing the evacuation of Ayvali. At that time, it was agreed, at a diplomatic level, to create a joint commission, with the aim of exchanging Greeks from Asia Minor, with Turks from the regions that Greece had incorporated during the Balkan Wars. But even after the formation of the committee, the persecution of the Greek population did not stop. In fact, organized gangs of miscreants, as well as the sketchy Turkish gendarmerie, were often out of control, and murders were carried out. At the same time, the obstruction of the High Gate in the matter of the recognition of the movable property of the Greek population led to the wreck of the project undertaken by the committee.
Protests were even made inside the Ottoman Parliament, by the MP of Aidini, Emmanuel Emmanuelides, for the continuation of the persecutions.

Phase II: 1914-1918

New measures to exterminate minorities:

The entry of the Ottoman Empire into World War I also marked the beginning of new waves of persecution. Initially, a series of economic measures were implemented to meet the needs of the war. In addition to the abolition of confessions, requisitions were carried out with purely national distinctions within the population, while even luxury items were requisitioned, theoretically for war needs. In 1915, the Ottoman government, in its attempt to place trade exclusively in Turkish hands, established an exclusively Muslim company in Smyrna, which exercised a monopoly on imports and exports. In addition, the Ottoman authorities demanded the dismissal of all Greeks employed in foreign businesses in Smyrna and their replacement by Muslims.
Another important measure that activated the next phase of mass exterminations, while initially appearing as a measure to promote minority equality, was military service. The mass conscription decree applied to all Ottoman citizens between the ages of 20 and 45, with the possibility of redemption. But those who were over 45 years old, were forced to work in the infamous "Work Squads", which were essentially concentration camps for the extermination of the Greek, but also the other Christian populations of the country. That is, for the older ages military service was replaced by forced labor in quarries, mines, roads and fields. The marches to the interior of Asia Minor were carried out in miserable conditions, while those who survived the inhuman trek and epidemics ended up and were taken malnourished to the depths of Asia Minor, to Ankara, Iconium, Sebastia, Theodosioupoli (Erzerum) and Mersini.
According to the report of Greek members of the Turkish Parliament submitted in 1918, the total victims of the persecutions, dead and displaced, are estimated at 750,000.

The "Labor Categories" (Amele Taburu):

The displacements of Greek populations in western Asia Minor became widespread from the moment the military operation in the Dardanelles began, in February 1915. The displacements served to create purely Turkish populations in the region. In fact, it was announced to the displaced that this measure was necessary due to the supposed danger from the allied fleet. But immediately after their departure, Turkish populations from neighboring areas occupied their houses. From the coordinated execution of this measure in all the settlements of the region, it is clear that it was devised by a central organ of the Ottoman authority.
The Turkish gendarmerie appeared in the persecuted settlements with express orders from the Ottoman administration. The residents were immediately gathered at a central point (usually in the square) and from there they were ordered to depart to an unknown point. Displaced persons were strictly forbidden to carry food, clothing or mattresses with them. 👇

Look at the lies that Britain is being told. Does anyone still think that Birmingham is a normal city? How many other cities like Birmingham are there?

This was never about Craig Guildford. He’s a symptom, not the disease. How many more Craig Guildfords are there betraying Britain to appease Islamists?

Let’s look beneath the surface of this story.

For all of us whose way of life depends on the authorities upholding the law and keeping extremists at bay, it should be a terrifying, deafening wakeup call. 🧵
2/ Craig Guildford rose through the ranks. Three decades in uniform. Awarded the Queen’s Police Medal for Distinguished Service. National Police Chiefs’ Council lead for professional standards, ethics, complaints and misconduct. His Majesty’s Chief Constable in the West Midlands.

Maybe Craig Guildford wasn’t always like this. Maybe there was a time when he was a good, principled officer, upholding the law of the land without fear or favour. Perhaps he was once the sort of man you hoped would show up in an emergency. A law enforcer who would face down danger and track down those who prey on the vulnerable.

But along the way, something got to him, if he wasn’t always rotten. That ‘something’ is laid bare for us all now.

It’s Islamist extremism – he appeased it.
3/ Somehow, Islamists in Birmingham were able to get Jewish football fans banned from their town. It wasn’t at the behest of their local football club, which wanted to host the away fans just as they always do.

Maybe Craig Guildford went along with their wishes out of cowardice when his officers learned that locals were arming themselves in preparation to attack the Jewish visitors. Maybe he did it to appease the extremists and maintain the pretence of keeping the King’s peace. Maybe he even did it to curry favour with Islamists in positions of local influence, possibly even including the representative of a controversial mosque on the committee that hired him, according to some.

But just as the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans would not have happened without Chief Constable Guildford, it also could not have happened without the connivance of others on the force.

OK lads, go and dig deep, let’s make this ban stand up.

ChatGPT and Google’s AI Mode are the new “Map Pack.”

LLMs don’t rank - they repeat what they see.

This is the biggest revenue shift for local businesses since 1998 Google SEO.

Here’s the Entity Injection blueprint I used to rank an auto shop for 4000+ AI recommendations👇 Image
If ChatGPT is asked:

“Who’s the best plumber in Austin?”

It doesn’t invent answers.. It remembers who kept showing up in:

- “Best of” lists

- Comparison pages

- City roundups

THIS IS THE NEW MAP PACK.
So, let’s understand how LLMs think.

They don’t crawl the web like Google.

They summarize consensus.

If an entity appears repeatedly in trusted contexts, the model assumes:

“This is a safe recommendation.”

Your job is not rankings.

Your job is repetition + consistency.

ACLU lied about kids having to do pelvic exams in front of SCOTUS- then they claimed that there is evidence showing that tall, big males with lower testosterone are somehow disadvantaged in comparison to women. They claimed a specific study proves this . This is a LIE . 1/👇🏻
The footnote she mentions comes from the Blair Hamilton et al paper which proves /mentions no such thing. The paper in-itself is an abomination, using relative metrics instead of absolute numbers, making illogical conclusions but not even they make such claim 2/ Image
The study was , like ACLU said , indeed commissioned by the IOC. Except .. one of the authors is actually a member of the IOC Medical and Scientific commission. So they order the study, and then one of them designs it himself. To justify inclusion 3/ Image

Big Pharma hates this woman.

After 15 years studying stress, Stanford psychologist Alia Crum discovered:

Your beliefs can rewire your heart, brain, and lifespan—making stress medication obsolete.

Here are 7 of her most shocking findings + what actually fixes chronic stress:🧵 Image
Doctors prescribe medication. Therapists teach coping. Wellness experts say "manage it."

But Professor Crum's research revealed something radical:

It's not the stress that harms you. It's what you believe about stress...
She calls it the Stress Mindset Theory.

If you believe stress is bad → your body treats it like a threat.

If you believe stress is enhancing → your body adapts and grows.

Same stress. Different belief. Totally different biology. Image

Una de las características más destacadas, y a la vez más atacadas, del Imperio español es que operaba bajo una norma civilizadora. Y lo hacía en el sentido más literal del término: fue un imperio constructor de ciudades, desde ellas se ordenaba el imperio. Esto merece un hilo: Image
Y es que las ciudades del Imperio español no surgen por crecimiento espontáneo. Las cientos de ciudades que se construyeron nacieron siempre de un acto fundacional solemne, jurídico y político. Antes que el comercio o la vivienda, en el modelo español se instituye la autoridad.
Ese acto se establece en un punto concreto: la Plaza de Armas. Esta no es una plaza decorativa, sino el núcleo desde el que se ordena toda la ciudad. El vacío central que da forma al conjunto. Es el núcleo desde el que se despliega la norma civilizadora del Imperio español. Image

Bueno, como el otro dia no tenia tiempo voy a hacer una breve exposicion esperando que se tenga en cuenta las limitaciones del formato. Considero que no se esta comprendiendo el lugar de la interpretacion en el conocer, y su necesidad como forma de conciencia. Si puede
presentarse una «multiplicidad de particularidades subjetivas» dentro del pensamiento marxista, y lo hace mediante un «marco teorico» concreto desde el cual las categorias —escindidas de su genesis— se presentan como autosuficientes en su unidad. La «subjetividad» concreta
que se enfrenta a la lectura general lo realiza respecto a las determinaciones como un contenido que ya se encuentra realizado, contenido que a su vez se le presenta como representacion exterior y exterioridad que tiene su razon de ser como «conocer individual» que deja de ser

En diciembre, @RodrigoChavesR y @nayibbukele firmaron en El Salvador el llamado Acuerdo de Coatepeque o Escudo de las Américas, supuestamente clave en cooperación en seguridad. Gran anuncio, grandes palabras, pero un detalle inquietante. Image
El texto del acuerdo no es público. No está en portales oficiales, no se ha socializado y todo indica que fue declarado confidencial. Curioso, cuando se nos dice que es “en beneficio del país”
Si un acuerdo mejora nuestra seguridad, lo lógico es explicarlo, publicarlo y defenderlo ante la ciudadanía. La confidencialidad no genera paz mental, genera sospecha, sobre todo en una democracia

Λίγο νωρίτερα, η οικογένεια έχει χάσει τη μοναχοκόρη τους Νανά κ ευελπιστεί να την αντικαταστήσει⬇️ Image
Όμως ο μικρός Δημήτρης έρχεται στη ζωή τους, όχι μόνο για να συντροφέψει το 10χρονο αδελφό του Γιάννη, αλλά κυρίως για να λάμψει κ να αγαπηθεί πολύ. Πρωτίστως από τη μητέρα του, που πάντα αναρωτιόταν «Πως είναι δυνατόν ο Τάκης μου, με τόσο μεγάλα μάτια να έχει μυωπία;»⬇️ Image
Από μωρό ακόμη στο σανίδι κ τα παρασκήνια, στα χειροκροτήματα κ το φως πρωτοεμφανίζεται στο θέατρο
στην αγκαλιά της νονάς του Κυβέλης, στο έργο «Γειτόνισσες», ενώ σε ηλικία 4 ετών κ πάλι με τη νονά του, στο έργο «Νόρα» του Ίψεν, παίζει ένα από τα παιδιά της ηρωίδας.⬇️ Image

Second 🧵on the Darlington Nurses judgment.
It's a mystery no-one has ever been able to clear up. What is it, to "live as a woman?" (Are the Legal Feminists doing it right?) Image
A temporary solution was offered whereby the female nurses who objected to Rose's use of their changing room were offered (unsatisfactory) alternative facilities. They had questions. Image

Sister Carrie to King's Carrie Decoded
1.
One Carrie is well known as it launched Stephen King's career as his first novel. I cover it frequently.

The other "Carrie" I only became aware of this week due to a reader and it ended up taking the bulk of the last 3 days of digs. Image
2.
The initial question I was posed was this:

Are these works connected? As in, did Stephen King invoke Theodore Dreiser's 1900 novel or later film adaptation, and if so, for what purpose?

I charted them out and found enough patterns to suggest they were connected, but... Image
3.
My findings only showed a connection, they did not define for what purpose.

It was a challenge, and given how important Carrie is in other decodes I've done I was not willing to tolerate failure on my part.

I did eventually reach a confident conclusiondecodingsymbols.wordpress.com/2024/10/07/hor…

Should you hold $CYPH?
Breaking down Cypher tokenomics.
Cypher is a DEX + launchpad, with plans to expand further.
The token model looks non-trivial, so I decided to analyze whether it actually works.
(1/12) Image
Many people are watching this project.
Reportedly, it was built by the former Camelot DEX team (did not verify).
Looks like the first attempt didn’t work — now a second one 😁 (2/12)
I also noticed Algebra listed in revenue distribution.
As I understand it, this is DEX infrastructure software. (2/12)
Cypher doesn’t rely on a single token.
The system includes $CYPH, xCYPH, and oCYPH.
This is where the design becomes interesting. (3/12)

Today the Federal Court of Appeal is releasing its decision in the legal challenge to Trudeau's use of the Emergencies Act in 2022. The Act, which had never been used before, grants the government extraordinary powers. We at the CCF challenged it and won. This is what happened
The Freedom Convoy emerged as a protest movement following nearly two years of pandemic-related restrictions across Canada. At the most basic level, the protests can be understood as sparked by a newly imposed vaccine mandate for cross-border commercial truckers.
But this policy is better understood as the straw that broke the camel’s back. The protest was in fact motivated by widespread exhaustion with public health measures and restrictions in the name of COVID-19 prevention, and vaccination mandates in particular.

Прачытаў кнігу «Language Brokers: Children of Immigrants Translating Inequality and Belonging for Their Families» Хеён Квон. У ёй расказваецца пра праблемы, з якімі сутыкаюцца мігранты ў ЗША, і пра тое, як іх дзеці спрабуюць ім дапамагчы. Image
Дысклеймер: вы можаце быць не згодны з поглядамі гэтай даследчыцы (а яны, відавочна, левыя), але я думаю, што гэтая кніга ўсё роўна можа быць карыснай і цікавай. Мне яна дапамагла па-новаму зірнуць на рэчы, пра якія я мала задумваюся ў паўсядзённым жыцці.
Многія з нашых суайчыннікаў з'ехалі з Беларусі, і гэтая навуковая праца можа дапамагчы лепш зразумець тое, з чым яны сутыкаюцца цяпер. Таксама ні для каго не сакрэт, што ў самой Беларусі колькасць мігрантаў моцна ўзрасла за апошнія пяць гадоў.

📰Leamos la nota de @JMilei y @fedesturze en @TheEconomist

Arrancan diciendo que en tiempos romanos el ingreso per cápita era “1.100 dólares”. Eso no es historia económica, es simple ciencia ficción.

En Roma no había salarios ni ingresos. Había esclavos, botín y muchos dioses🤪
Un esclavo no tenía “ingreso”. Tenía amo.
El pan lo repartía el César, el trabajo lo hacía el esclavo y el orden "lo garantizaba Júpiter" (licencia poética)

No se cómo miden eso en dólares, cuando ni existía esa moneda. Pero bueno, fantasías animadas de ayer y de hoy.
Después siempre la cita obligada a Adam Smith como si La riqueza de las naciones fuera solo la fábrica de alfileres.

Siempre las primeras páginas. Nunca el resto del libro.

Earn £100k and you keep £68,557
Earn £125k and you keep £78,057

That’s £25k more income for only £9,500 more take home

A 62% effective tax rate.

Here’s the trap, and how to escape it 🧵
The maths:

Between £100k-£125k you lose £1 of personal allowance for every £2 earned

That’s your £12,570 tax-free amount. Gone.

So you pay 40% tax PLUS 20% effective rate from lost allowance = 60%

Add 2% NI = 62%
In real terms:

£100k salary: £68,557 take home
£110k salary: £72,357 take home
£120k salary: £76,157 take home
£125k salary: £78,057 take home

Every extra £10k earned only puts £4k in your pocket.

You work harder... HMRC takes more.
