Ireland is a tax haven. In the 1970s and 1980s, life in the civil-war wracked country was hard - between poverty, scarce employment and civil unrest, the country hemorrhaged its best and brightest. As the saying went, "Ireland's top export is the Irish."

📰 Informationsgesetz ignoriert❓
▶️ Heimliche AfD‑Veranstaltung sorgt
in Iserlohn für Empörung
In Iserlohn wurde am heutigen Tag die neue Jugendorganisation Generation Deutschland NRW der AfD gegründet – und die Öffentlichkeit erfuhr davon nur durch Zufall.
▶️ Weder Stadt noch Ordnungsamt hatten die Veranstaltung angekündigt oder transparent gemacht. ▶️ Für viele Demokrat:innen vor Ort ist das ein klarer Verstoß gegen den Geist des Informationsgesetzes und ein fatales Signal für die politische Kultur der Stadt.
Besonders brisant:
▶️ Der Bürgermeister selbst erklärte mir in einem persönlichen Gespräch, dass er "keine Bilder wie in Gießen“ wolle – also keine Szenen, in denen eine breite Zivilgesellschaft sichtbar und laut gegen rechte Strukturen protestiert.
як усім нам стало відомо з новин, нове найвище військово-політичне начальство вирішило зайнятись проблемою мобілізації та СЗЧ.
системно це справді одна взаємоповʼязана проблема, бо більшість СЗЧшників накивають пʼятами з армії ще з БЗВП до розподілу в постійні частини.
а чому?
можу із твердою впевненістю сказати, що кількість СЗЧ з навчальних центрів дуже суттєво зменшилась би, якби у перші дні мобілізації в ТЦК та на розподільчих пунктах до людей би ставились як до людей тупо б хоча б просто РОЗМОВЛЯЛИ ЯК З ЛЮДЬМИ, а не як зі скотом.
наприклад, дуже велику роль у рішеннях людини, яку мобілізують, відіграють її найближчі родичі - батьки, жінка, діти.
і на що ж будуть налаштовувати цю людину родичі, якщо після мобілізації з вулиці людина тиждень, або два знаходиться непонятно, без звʼязку і без нічого.
Kaliforniya’da Long Beach şehrindeki Eyalet Üniversitesi’nde öğretim üyesi olarak ders verirken, aynı sömestrde benim iki dersimi alan bir kız öğrencim dikkatimi çekmeye başlamıştı.
Bu genç bayanın şu özelliklerinin farkına varmıştım: Her şeyden önce çok güzel bir kızdı; gözüm gayri ihtiyari ona gidiyordu. İkinci olarak çok iyi bir öğrenciydi; bütün sınav ve ödevlerde en yüksek notu o alıyordu.
Ayrıca, çok hanımefendi, çok nezih bir kişiliği vardı.
Bölümün bir pikniğinde kız öğrencimin nişanlısıyla tanıştım ve itiraf edeyim, ilk aklımdan geçen, ‘Armudun iyisini ayılar yer’ düşüncesi oldu. Yukarıda özelliklerini saydığım o güzel kızın bana tanıştırdığı erkek, yirmi yedi-yirmi sekiz yaşlarında, saçı biraz dökülmüş, ++++++
U.S. State Department records from 1961 show that Arab League leaders intentionally planned a Palestinian political and military entity, modeled on Algeria’s insurgency, as a strategic tool to weaken and ultimately eliminate Israel.
🧵The announcement by Canadian PM @MarkJCarney of a reset in Canada-China ties accompanied by a trade deal of dramatic proportions will likely go down in history as a major political blunder. But don't listen to me: Premier Doug Ford of Ontario already denounced the deal. 1/9
Anger, however justified, should never be the principal driver of policy. This is true both about our Canadian brethren, and true about our European allies. We are living through a rocky transformation of the international system, but the geopolitical realities remain. 2/9
It is at times like this that we need cooler heads to prevail, and when we need leaders who can focus on the foundational principles of what constitutes our civilization. It defies reason that Canada would invite an Asian communist state to set up shop in North America. 3/9

So, one question I’ve gotten a lot re: this piece is how I can possibly say that Trump et al aren’t taking this stuff seriously, and I think the answer is interesting/ worth unpacking (🧵)
This is the relevant section. Basically, the way DHS chooses to present information about its activities is a problem. ICE agents getting caught on video acting like they’re cosplaying as Rambo-meets-the bully from a 1980s teen comedy? Also a problem!
I’ve noted already that this cartoonish bad guy behavior feeds a sense that ICE is both illegitimate and not entirely real — people really do treat them like Star Wars stormtroopers whom they, the rebel hero, can freely antagonize while protected by good guy plot armor. But also—the complete lack of gravitas from the Trump/DHS/ICE camp is also, separately, just a *massive* communications failure

Jag tror inte att ledartexter beställs av NMT-media (som äger Corren) men jag kan konstatera att Corrren är en av de mest skolkoncernpositiva tidningarna i landet och att det finns makalösa kopplingar mellan bolagsstyrelsen och skolkoncernerna.

Muchos habéis visto una cuenta de “reciente crecimiento”, @XMihura , que habla de Simclusters y toda esa verga.
Os daré una turra sobre eso, bien tocha, y le invito a participar si quiere.
VA PEDAZO DE TURRA INFUMABLE.
Cómo funciona (probablemente) el algoritmo de X:
Esto es una teoría, obviamente no conozco en realidad cómo funciona el algoritmo de clasificación de X. Pero en base a lo leído y observado durante el último año, creo que tengo una idea bastante aproximada de la arquitectura que hay detrás. Y spoiler: no es lo que la mayoría piensa.
Cuando abres X, no estás viendo “tweets”. Estás viendo el output de un sistema de recomendación que procesa aproximadamente 500 millones de publicaciones diarias para seleccionar las ~1.500 que aparecerán en tu timeline. Y la forma en que decide qué mostrarte tiene muy poco que ver con el orden cronológico o con “lo que publican las cuentas que sigues”.
El sistema se llama internamente SimClusters. Twitter lo publicó en un paper de KDD en 2020, y cuando liberaron el código del algoritmo en 2023, pudimos confirmar que sigue siendo el núcleo del sistema de recomendaciones.
¿Qué hace SimClusters? Básicamente, te convierte en un vector matemático.
Imagina que X tiene aproximadamente 145.000 “comunidades virtuales” — clusters de usuarios que comparten patrones de comportamiento similares. No son comunidades que tú eliges, son comunidades que el algoritmo infiere observando a quién sigues, con qué interactúas, cuánto tiempo pasas leyendo cada tweet, y un montón de señales más que ni siquiera son públicas.
Tu perfil no es tu bio ni tus tweets. Tu perfil real es un vector de 145.000 dimensiones que representa tu “posición” en este espacio de comunidades. Y cada tweet que se publica también tiene su propio vector, que se actualiza en tiempo real según quién interactúa con él.
Cuando el algoritmo decide qué mostrarte, calcula la similitud entre tu vector y el vector de cada tweet candidato. Los que más se parecen a ti, ganan.
Aquí viene lo interesante. El sistema no trata a todos los usuarios igual. Hay una división fundamental.
El 1% superior por número de seguidores — aproximadamente el millón de cuentas más seguidas — son tratados como “nodos de influencia”. Son los puntos de referencia que definen los clusters.
El 99% restante — tú, yo, casi todos — somos clasificados en función de a qué nodos de influencia seguimos y con cuáles interactuamos.
Esto significa algo importante: si no estás en ese 1% superior, tu identidad algorítmica está definida por otros. Eres una función de los influencers que sigues. El algoritmo te mira y dice “este tío sigue a cuentas de tech, geopolítica y defensa, así que lo metemos en estos clusters y le mostramos contenido similar”.
El umbral aproximado para entrar en ese 1% está alrededor de los 10.000 seguidores. No es un número mágico exacto — depende de la base de usuarios total — pero es una buena aproximación. Por encima de eso, empiezas a ser un nodo. Por debajo, eres un punto que se posiciona en relación a los nodos.

Oft spielt das Verabreichen/Einflössen von Alkohol bei Sexualstraftaten eine Rolle. Nicht nur, wenn die Opfer erwachsen sind, sondern auch bei Jugendlichen oder Kindern. Schon Säuglingen/Kleinstkindern wird Alkohol eingeflösst, damit sie leichter/besser benutzbar sind.
Ein Teil der Missbrauchstäter*innen konsumiert im Zshg. mit den Sexualstraftaten gegen Jugendliche und/oder Kinder Alkohol. Manche, weil sie sich vorsätzlich enthemmen wollen, andere, um, soweit vorhanden, ihre Schuldgefühle/Scham verdrängen zu können.
It can affect people of all ages, but it is more common as people grow older. Over time, arthritis can make daily activities difficult and reduce quality of life if not properly managed.
✨ EXERCISE REGULARLY
Regular physical activity strengthens muscles around the joints, improves flexibility, and reduces stiffness. Low impact exercises such as walking, swimming, and stretching are especially beneficial.
✨MAINTAIN A HEALTHY WEIGHT
Excess body weight puts extra pressure on joints, especially the knees, hips, and spine. Maintaining a healthy weight reduces joint stress and lowers the risk of developing arthritis.

Un 17 de enero de 1961, EEUU y Bélgica organizaron un golpe de estado en el Congo contra Patrice Lumumba, líder anticolonial que se negó al saqueo de su pais y someterse al imperialismo.
Lumumba fue torturado, descuartizado y disuelto en ácido, luego tiraron sus restos al mar, de él solo quedó un diente, que se lo quedaron los belgas como trofeo de su asesinato.
Así se las gasta la "civilización" occidental cuando un pais quiere ser libre de su opresión... el Congo es enormemente rico en recursos pero su población nunca dejó de estar en la miseria desde el colonialismo, con guerras constantes financiadas y organizadas por el imperialismo, que no ha parado de desestabilizar y saquear el pais.
El colonialismo belga del rey Leopoldo II, convirtió al Congo en una “empresa privada” colonial desde 1885, donde estableció un régimen del terror de 24 horas de esclavitud sin descanso para saquear todo el caucho y el marfil del pais, esclavizando incluso a niños.
Los esclavos congoleños (incluidos niños) que no cumplian con su cuota mínima diaria de cosecha del caucho. se les cortaba las manos y se les dejaba sangrar delante de su propia familia como castigo.
Se estima que este genocida belga de Leopoldo II asesinó al menos a 10 millones de personas, lo que en aquella época era el 50% de la población del Congo, todo en apenas 20 AÑOS, uno de los genocidios más brutales de la historia en términos de población/tiempo.
Estados Unidos fue uno de los primeros aliados del reinado de terror de Leopoldo II en el Congo, de hecho, 7 meses antes del infame congreso de Berlín de 1885, Estados Unidos ya había reconocido la propiedad de Leopoldo II sobre el territorio.
Leopoldo II construyó palacios con todo lo robado al Congo (como el actual Palacio de la Justicia de Bruselas) e incluso siniestramente se llevó a centenares de sus esclavos congoleños a Bélgica para usarlos como mascotas domésticas y exponerlos en zoos humanos.
Después de 25 años de dictadura de terror colonial del rey Leopoldo II que exterminó a la mitad de la población, fue el estado imperialista belga quién administró la colonia del Congo durante otros 52 años.
Así se paseaban los reyes belgas por el Congo, Baudouin I (bisnieto del genocida Leopoldo II) y Fabiola, como auténticos amos esclavistas sentados en sillones con congoleños cargando su peso.
Baudouin llegó a afirmar que su bisabuelo era "un genio civilizador" que controló el Congo con "tenaz valentía" y llevó "libertad" y "desarrollo" al territorio congoleño.

Deworming is the use of medicines to remove intestinal worms from the body.
These worms are common, especially in areas with poor sanitation, and many people carry them without knowing.
Learn the signs and why deworming is important
Check my comments below 👇🏾
SIGNS OF WORM INFESTATION
- Unexplained weight loss or poor weight gain, especially in children, is a common sign. Worms feed on nutrients meant for the body.
- Non stop tiredness, weakness, or dizziness may occur due to loss of nutrients and iron, leading to anemia.
- Frequent stomach pain, bloating, diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting can be caused by worms irritating the intestines.
- Itching around the anus, especially at night, is a typical sign of pinworm infection.
- Poor appetite or sudden changes in eating habits may be noticed, particularly in children.
- Grinding of teeth during sleep is sometimes linked to worm infestation in children.
- Coughing or breathing discomfort may occur when worm larvae migrate through the lungs.
- Visible worms or worm segments in stool or around the anus is a clear sign of infestation.
- Delayed growth, poor concentration, and reduced school performance may be seen in affected children.
🔑 IMPORTANCE OF DEWORMING
- Deworming helps prevent anemia. Worms feed on nutrients and blood in the body, especially iron. Over time, this can lead to low blood level, weakness, dizziness, and tiredness, particularly in children and pregnant women.
- It improves growth and development in children. Worm infestation reduces appetite and blocks proper nutrient absorption. Regular deworming helps children gain weight, grow well, and develop normally.
- Deworming improves concentration and school performance. Children with worms often feel weak, restless, or sleepy. Once dewormed, many children show better attention, energy, and learning ability.
- It protects the immune system. Worms weaken the body’s defenses, making people more prone to infections. Removing them helps the immune system function better.
- Deworming reduces stomach problems. Worms can cause abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, vomiting, and itching around the anus. Deworming relieves these symptoms and improves comfort.
- It helps prevent complications. Long-term worm infestation can lead to bowel blockage, malnutrition, delayed puberty, and severe anemia. Regular deworming reduces these risks.
- Deworming helps break the cycle of transmission. Treating infected people reduces the spread of worms in homes, schools, and communities, especially where sanitation is poor.
- It supports overall nutrition. When worms are removed, the body absorbs food better, making meals more effective for energy and health.

When Machines Turned Back: The Classified Kailash Episode China Never Wanted the World to Know. Chinese tried their best to capture Mount Kailash, But what happened next will shock you,
Note- Following thread is based on classified files and theories and NOTHING CAN BE PROVEN⚠️
For decades, Mount Kailash has stood apart from the modern world, unclimbed, unconquered, and untouched by human ambition. Revered by Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and followers of Bon, it is believed to be the abode of Bhagawan Shiva.
In the year 2001.... 👇
According to accounts long buried in classified circles, China once attempted to erase that anomaly.
In 2001, as per these narratives, Chinese military planners reportedly approved a top-secret aerial reconnaissance mission over Mount Kailash. The objective was simple yet audacious: prove that Kailash was “nothing more than rock and ice,” dismantle centuries of faith, and assert technological dominance where no human had ever set foot.
And speaking of the past, here's what I had before today: four cards. These Xircom RealPort Ethernet 10/100 cards are great for getting a laptop without Internet connected to a wired network!
1/ What is the "spirit of accusation"?
It's a phrase and buzzword that was invented by Mike Bickle. Let that marinate.
It was an effective buzzword phrase that smoke screened his abuses, and allowed him to evade real accountability for decades.
2/ "spirit of accusation" is a buzzword phrase by which Malachi looks the other way & refuses to acknowledge that 2-3 witnesses are valid, weighty AND scriptural.
It's a tradition of man that makes the word of God of none effect, enabling the ignoring of 1 Tim 5:19-20
3/ "spirit of accusation" is the manipulation tactic of abusers & abusive systems to emotionally coerce people into silencing and/or ignoring legitimate accusations.
The absurdity never ends. Democratic Judge @EDNYnews orders are legally meaningless.
District Judge Sanket J. Bulsara — appointed by @SenSchumer . 🧵 THREAD
Bulsara issued an order today. But you have NO JURISDICTION.
You recused yourself November 17, 2025.
You reassigned yourself November 26 without notice or explanation.
All orders after recusal are VOID AB INITIO.
Truth. Transparency. Justice. ⚖️
🔴 THE LEGAL REALITY:
Under 28 U.S.C. § 455(a), once a judge recuses, the judge CANNOT return without:
✓ Clear articulation of reasons
✓ Notice to all parties
✓ Opportunity for parties to object
Judge Bulsara provided NONE of these.
🚨 CONSEQUENCE:
All orders issued after November 17, 2025, are VOID AB INITIO.
Liljeberg v. Health Servs. Acquisition Corp., 486 U.S. 847 (1988).
Contreras v. Bourke, No. CV-24-0217-PR (Ariz. Aug. 21, 2025).
Today's order is VOID.
🧵 THREAD: Documents proving bias, recusal violations, unlawful injunctions, and obstruction of justice.
VOID AB INITIO = "void from the beginning" (Latin)
It means an order, action, or decision is COMPLETELY INVALID and has ZERO LEGAL EFFECT — as if it never happened at all.
🔴 IN MY CASE:
November 17, 2025: Judge Bulsara recused himself under 28 U.S.C. § 455.
Once a judge recuses, that judge LOSES ALL AUTHORITY over the case.
November 26, 2025: Judge Bulsara reassigned himself back WITHOUT NOTICE, WITHOUT EXPLANATION, WITHOUT OPPORTUNITY TO OBJECT.
This reassignment was IMPROPER.
🚨 THE CONSEQUENCE:
Every order Judge Bulsara issued AFTER November 17 is VOID AB INITIO.
This means:
✓ The orders have ZERO legal effect
✓ They are treated as if they were NEVER issued
✓ You do NOT have to follow them
✓ They can be VACATED and ERASED from the record
✓ They CANNOT be used as a basis for any further action
📋 EXAMPLE:
If Judge Bulsara issued a filing ban on November 26 (after recusal), that filing ban is VOID AB INITIO.
It is legally meaningless.
You can FILE ANYWAY because the order that banned you has NO legal force.
🔴 WHY THIS MATTERS:
Every order Judge Bulsara issued after November 17 — the filing bans, the denials, today's order — are all VOID AB INITIO.
1/ An elected leader deployed armed troops to storm parliament, banned all political activity and media, authorised warrantless arrests, and tried to prevent lawmakers from voting to stop him.
Prosecutors call him an insurrection ringleader and have demanded the death penalty.
2/ This is South Korea. Prosecutors demanded capital punishment for former president Yoon Suk Yeol over his failed 3 December 2024 martial law declaration.
First insurrection-related trial of a Korean head of state in 30 years.
3/ Under Korean law, insurrection ringleader charges carry only three possible sentences: death penalty, life imprisonment with labour, or life imprisonment without labour. Prosecutors argued Yoon's crimes warrant the maximum.

Let me introduce you to a patient, let's call them "Abhi."
Abhi wanted to "max out" his health. So, every single night at dinner, Abhi swallowed a fistful of supplements: Iron, Calcium, Zinc, Vitamin B12, and Collagen. All in one gulp. 💊
The result? 🧵
He was still anemic, still tired, and his skin/joints weren't improving. Instead he felt exhausted and often had stomach cramps.
Here is why his routine was literally "flushing money down the toilet"👇
The "Transporter" War 🥊
Minerals like Iron, Calcium, and Zinc use the same "gateways" to enter your bloodstream from your gut.
When you take them all at once, Calcium acts like a bully. It crowds the gates, effectively blocking your Iron and Zinc from getting in.

1/ Indonesia is conducting one of the largest land grabs in modern history.
Since March 2025, the government has seized over 4 million hectares of oil palm plantations. That’s an area the size of Switzerland, or roughly 30% of Indonesia’s total palm oil acreage.
2/ The justification? The government claims these plantations are in protected "forest zones."
But it looks more like outright nationalization. Assets are being transferred to a new SOE, "Agrinas Palma Nusantara," led by retired generals tied to President Prabowo.
3/ This will have broad ramifications. Indonesia produces 58% of the world’s palm oil.
With 30% of the country’s supply now under state control, palm oil prices are likely headed higher. Supply chains for everything from snacks to cosmetics will be affected.

A guy dressed up as Emelya, the hero of the folk tale "At The Pike's Behest"
So Gideon (Abimelek’s dad) didn’t train his sons for war (Judges 8:20). Abimelek’s mom was a concubine; she lived in a city of refuge for m*rd*rers. (Joshua 21:21)
[It was also a city of Covenant & the place Joseph’s bones were buried.(Joshua 24:33; Numbers 24:25)]
Abimelek was named after an Egyptian king AND lives where bones from Egypt were buried. The people of that city helped him m*rd*r his brothers. (Judges 9:24)
1 John 3:15 tells us anyone who hates his brother is a m*rd*rer. So that spirit rises when sons aren’t trained to war.
Conversation with relative I haven't spoken to in a while. I'm a bit of an outcast because of my strong views on Covid but with my mum being unwell, family are contacting me for updates.
It's such an enigma to me how people's brains work (or don't).
Here's how it went:
1/🧵
Me: I think things started to go downhill for mum when she got shingles.
Rel: Yes I agree. She declined quickly after that.
Me: And people thought it was safe to ignore chicken pox and decades later, it started her demise.
Rel: Yes it lies dormant and can be very serious.
2/
Me: This is why I take Covid seriously. There's a lot we don't know but what we do know from studies urges more caution.
Rel: Well you just have to carry on as normal. When it started, my son worked every day as a key worker. You can't just stop everything indefinitely.

Introduction
When the average seminary graduate stumbles into Genesis chapter 6, he handles it like he just found a live grenade in a Sunday school classroom. Instead of believing the text, he dives behind a stack of commentaries written by men who don’t believe a word of what they’re explaining, and he emerges with the same tired line about the “sons of Seth.” That dodge has been pulled on congregations for over a century, and it still doesn’t explain a single detail in the passage. Moses didn’t write “sons of Seth.” He wrote “sons of God” (Genesis 6:2), and when a King James Bible uses that expression it is dealing with a very specific class of beings—beings with direct creation, celestial origin, and pre-Adamic authority. You don’t have to be a scholar or wear tweed jackets to see that. You just have to believe the Book.
The modern allergy to Genesis 6 is not intellectual—it’s spiritual. Materialists and modernists panic at the thought of supernatural beings mingling with the daughters of men because it blows their neat little Darwinian timeline into confetti. If Genesis 6 is literal, then the universe is not a random accident, evolution is a joke, and mankind has been interacting with intelligent non-human beings from the beginning. That means the Bible is describing reality while NASA and the universities are selling comic books. The King James Bible tells you plainly that the “sons of God” saw, came down, took wives, and had children (Genesis 6:1–4). You can rewrite that until your typewriter melts, but the words are still there.
The reason Genesis 6 matters today is because the Lord Jesus Christ pointed you straight back to that period as the preview of the end times: “But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be” (Matthew 24:37). The days of Noah were not defined by quilting and apple pie. They were defined by angelic rebellion, hybrid offspring, genetic corruption, and worldwide violence. If you’re too dainty to admit that angels have bodies, intellect, desire, and capability, then you’re too dainty to explain why God drowned a planet. This essay will show you from the Bible who the sons of God were, how they fell, why they came down, and what they produced. We will use Scripture, not seminary tradition, as our final authority.
Chapter One: Who the Sons of God Were
The first thing the Bible student must do is define the term “sons of God” according to the Holy Spirit’s usage—not Augustine, not Calvin, and not your latest Zondervan commentary. The earliest chronological usage of the term occurs in Job 1:6: “Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them.” Job 2:1 repeats the same scene word for word. That meeting did not take place at a family reunion in Seth’s backyard. It took place in the heavenly council, with Satan present among celestial beings who report directly to God. These are not human beings. No descendant of Seth ever walked into the throne room of God with the Devil in tow.
Job 38:7 nails the coffin shut on the Sethite fantasy. When God interrogates Job, He asks, “Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth?… when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?” Those sons of God were present before Adam was formed, before Eve was pulled from his side, and before Seth ever existed. Human beings cannot shout for joy at creation if they are not created yet. The only beings present were angels. Thus, by the Bible’s own internal dictionary, the sons of God are heavenly beings—direct creations of God, possessing spiritual bodies, and capable of appearing before His throne.
No honest student of Scripture can compare Genesis 6 with Job 1, Job 2, and Job 38 and still maintain that the “sons of Seth” married the “daughters of Cain.” The Sethite theory is a theological Band-Aid invented in the third and fourth centuries by men who were embarrassed by the supernatural worldview of Scripture. It wasn’t believed by the Jews, who unanimously understood Genesis 6 as angelic. It wasn’t believed by the early church, who taught the angels left their proper domain. It was cooked up as a respectable alternative for academic audiences who choke on the idea of angels with bodies. The problem is that the Bible doesn’t share their queasiness.
Chapter Two: Why the Sons of God Fell
Once you establish that the sons of God were angels, the next question is why they fell. Jude tells you plainly: “the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation” (Jude 6). Two charges are leveled against them. First, they “kept not their first estate”—that is, they abandoned the jurisdiction God assigned to them. Second, they “left their own habitation”—they exited their proper dwelling place. The Greek word for “habitation” is oikētērion, used only one other time in Scripture to describe the “house” the believer will receive at the resurrection (2 Corinthians 5:2). The sons of God abandoned their spiritual bodies and took on terrestrial form.
What was the motive? Genesis 6 tells you that as well. They “saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose” (Genesis 6:2). Lust was the doorway. The fall of the sons of God was not because of a theological disagreement—it was because of desire. Satan fell because of pride. Eve fell because of curiosity. The watchers fell because of lust. They crossed the boundary between heaven and earth not merely to observe but to participate. They took wives. They produced offspring. They corrupted flesh. That is why Genesis 6:12 says, “all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.” You don’t get “all flesh” from mixed marriages between descendants of Seth and Cain.
Peter confirms Jude’s testimony: “God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness” (2 Peter 2:4). That is not the fall of Satan in Eden. Satan is roaming freely in Job 1 and still prowling in the New Testament (1 Peter 5:8). The angels of 2 Peter 2 are in chains—bound, restrained, unable to operate. That matches Jude 6 perfectly. It also matches Jewish tradition found in multiple sources that the watchers who descended in Genesis 6 were judged and confined until the day of doom. Whether you accept those traditions or not, the Bible itself says certain angels are chained beneath the earth, and that only fits Genesis 6.
Chapter Three: What the Sons of God Produced
The hybrid offspring of the sons of God were called “giants” in our English Bible (Genesis 6:4). The Hebrew word is Nephilim, meaning fallen ones. They were not metaphorical brutes or poetic symbols of strong war leaders. They were literal, biological hybrids—part angelic, part human—produced by an illicit union that God never intended. The verse says they were “mighty men which were of old, men of renown” (Genesis 6:4). Pagan mythology preserves distorted memories of these creatures in the form of Titans, demigods, and heroes—part divine, part mortal. The Bible strips away the mythology and tells you exactly where they came from.
These beings accelerated the corruption of mankind. They were violent, dominant, and predatory. They filled the earth with bloodshed. They accelerated the spread of occult knowledge. The pre-Flood world was not a collection of cavemen grunting around campfires. It was a highly advanced, highly corrupted civilization under celestial influence. That is why God wiped it out. If the Sethite theory were true, then God drowned the world because saved boys married lost girls. That is theological nonsense. The flood
was God’s answer to a biological, spiritual, and moral crisis that threatened the very line through which the Messiah would come.
And do not think the hybrids disappeared forever. After the Flood, we find the sons of Anak, the Rephaim, the Emim, and the Zamzummim—giant clans that terrified the nations. Israel encountered Og of Bashan, whose bedstead was over thirteen feet long (Deuteronomy 3:11). The spies saw giants and said, “we were in our own sight as grasshoppers” (Numbers 13:33). Goliath of Gath stood over nine feet tall and had brothers and sons who were themselves monstrous (1 Chronicles 20:4–8). The post-Flood giants are not identical to the original Nephilim, but they are clearly remnants, mutations, or continuations of the original corruption. The Book does not hide this. Scholars do.
Chapter Four: Where the Sons of God Came From
The sons of God originate in the heavenly realm. They are not spirits of dead men. They are not gods of pagan imagination. They are angels—created beings with power, intellect, and hierarchy. Colossians 1:16 describes the celestial order: “thrones, dominions, principalities, and powers.” Paul tells us we wrestle against those same entities (Ephesians 6:12). The Old Testament gives you glimpses of these beings interacting with mankind. Angels ate with Abraham (Genesis 18). Angels laid hold on Lot (Genesis 19). Angels destroyed armies (2 Kings 19). Angels fought in spiritual conflict (Daniel 10). These are not wispy cloud-creatures with harps. These are powerful beings capable of taking tangible form.
The sons of God in Genesis 6 were likely part of the order known as watchers—angels tasked with observation and oversight. Daniel mentions watchers and holy ones (Daniel 4:13, 17). The term refers to angels who monitor and report. Some of these watchers abandoned their office, descended to earth, and rebelled. Their origin explains why they had knowledge mankind did not possess. Pagan traditions in Mesopotamia, Greece, and the Levant preserve stories of gods teaching men metallurgy, agriculture, astrology, and magic. Strip away the polytheistic interpretation, and what you have is a corrupted memory of angelic instruction.
When these beings fell, they introduced forbidden knowledge—arts that accelerated civilization while corrupting it. Genesis 4 shows technology exploding in Cain’s line: cities, metallurgy, music, industry. Humanity did not claw its way up from apes; it fell from a golden age into corruption. The sons of God coming down in Genesis 6 was a further descent of knowledge that mankind could not handle. It is the same mistake scientists make today—tampering with genetics, cloning, merging man with machine—because a spirit world whispers in the ear of the modern technocrat the same way it instructed the pre-Flood world.
Chapter Five: How the Sons of God Fell
The fall of the sons of God was an act of rebellion rooted in lust. Jude says they “left their own habitation.” Peter says they sinned and were chained. Moses says they “took them wives of all which they chose.” God says they produced giants. That is not poetry. That is biology. That is spiritual beings stepping into the physical arena. Their fall mirrors Satan’s original rebellion but takes a different route. Satan’s fall was a revolt in heaven. The watchers’ fall was a trespass into earth.
When the Bible says they “came in unto the daughters of men” (Genesis 6:4), it uses the same language used for marital intimacy throughout the Old Testament. The text does not blush, spiritualize, or sanitize it. These were not visions, dreams, or metaphors. They were physical unions. Angels can appear as men. They can eat bread. They can seize a man by the hand. The idea that they cannot procreate is not found in Scripture. Jesus said angels in heaven “neither marry, nor are given in marriage” (Matthew 22:30). That speaks of heavenly order, not capability. These angels did not stay in heaven. They left.
Thread with excerpts from the 1976 essay "On Meritocracy and Equality." I want to clear up some misconceptions around the idea of "meritocracy." The word was initially coined as a *pejorative* in 1958 to describe presently-existing Anglo-American society.
What characterized WWII and postwar Anglo-American society that made the word "meritocracy" appropriate? That talent (as measured by heavily genetic IQ) and technical skill, rather than hereditary privilege or some other mechanism, led to status and wealth.
But by 1976, this had already been successfully attacked and overthrown by the New Left/Civil Rights state, which replaced talent with hereditary privilege (race, sex) as the ideal arbiter of status.
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.
Black ppl are trying to mimic the things they envy about whites without understanding the processes that enabled those things to exist. People often ask me about “solutions” to the problems black ppl face, and to me, here is the main solution.
This thread explains that solution.
Thales was the first person to attempt to explain the world naturally, rather than using God or myth. In Babylon, Egypt, Persia, and the Greeks before Thales, phenomena were explained through myth and divine order. Thales broke free from this pattern in humanity.
Thales was also the first person to create a mathematical proof. Pamphile, an Egyptian woman known for being the first female historian, said that Thales was the first to inscribe in a circle a right-angle triangle, and attributed to him the creation of a proof.

Dnes si připomínáme památku Jana Palacha, jehož sebeupálení bylo radikálním protestem proti sovětské okupaci. I když je nejznámější, stejný čin provedli i mnozí další, a to i v SSSR nebo Putinově Rusku. Připomeňme si je.
1/9
První podobný protest proti okupaci Československa vojsky Varšavské smlouvy vykonal někdo jiný. Polák Ryszard Siwiec se 8.9.1968 zapálil na stadionu během tanečního vystoupení, přičemž držel transparent s nápisem: „Za naši a vaši svobodu“
