Aber mal im Ernst: was für ein Legoland ist diese Bundesrepublik eigentlich geworden?
Ein mehrteiliger Thread über #bahnstreik #GDL #Gewerkschaften #Arbeitskampf & #Solidarität .
Wer den Thread überfliegt, dem fällt es es u.U. gar nicht auf: der Text stammt aus dem Jahr 2015 - und bis auf die austauschbaren Ereignisse im Kanzleramt oder Bonihöhen des DB Vorstands, ist er Spot-On. Und der Misantrop in mir denkt: "So viele Idioten - und nur eine Sense.."
Im Kanzleramt wurde offenbar jahrelang millionenfacher Grundrechtsbruch durch das flächendeckende Abhören und Auswerten aller Telefonate und Internetaktivitäten gedeckt, vielleicht sogar mitgestaltet und bis heute nicht gestoppt. Kaum jemand interessiert sich dafür so wirklich.
This is what happens after death,
everything you hide and do inwardly will be revealed.
—- The fourth dimension is not simply an outer direction like north or south — it’s inwardness.
The etheric world is a world of
four-dimensional space.
The spiritual world is “four-dimensional.”
The physical world is perceived in 3
spatial dimensions,
but the etheric and astral worlds have additional dimensions of space that we do not normally perceive.
This means the kind of structure the tesseract represents—an object that can only fully exist in 4D—actually resembles the geometry of the etheric body.
⸻
The fourth dimension is the direction in which the etheric expands.
physical objects extend in:
•length
•width
•height
But living beings
(anything with an etheric body) extend into a fourth direction that is not perceptible to physical eyes.
This “fourth direction” is:
•growth forces
•form-shaping forces
•life expansion
•the underlying blueprint of organisms
This is where the tesseract concept resonates:
a cube is the “shadow” of a tesseract;
the physical body is the “shadow” of the etheric.
⸻
A tesseract is mathematically what Steiner spiritually described: folding the higher into the lower
The etheric body interpenetrates the physical body the way a higher-dimensional being interpenetrates a lower-dimensional figure.
similar to Flatland:
•A 4D being appearing in 3D
•A higher form projecting a “shadow” into lower space
•The human etheric shape only partly visible in physical dimensions
A tesseract unfolds from 4D into 3D as a cross shape.
the etheric body “unfolding” its forces into physical form in an almost identical way.
⸻
In the astral world, geometry becomes “living”
4D forms are not rigid like Euclidean objects.
In the astral world:
•geometry moves
•shapes transform
•boundaries breathe
•forms interpenetrate in ways impossible in 3D
A tesseract “rotating” in 4D
(which we visualize in animation)
is close to describing a living spiritual geometry.
⸻
higher beings think in 4D forms
Angels, according to Steiner,
do not think in words.
They think in dynamic geometric transformations.
(Think of DMT experiences)
This is the same domain that the tesseract belongs to.
Steiner even said the human being before birth experiences:
“geometric-etheric forms of higher dimensions that contract into the physical shape.”
This contraction is similar to a tesseract “collapsing” into a cube.
⸻
the “inner” vs. “outer” dimension
The fourth dimension is not simply an outer direction like north or south — it’s inwardness.
“The fourth dimension is innerness made spatial.”
A tesseract’s core feature is that it has:
•an “inner cube”
•an “outer cube”
connected by higher-dimensional lines.
This is remarkably similar to Steiner’s description of:
•inner etheric space
•outer physical space
interpenetrating.
the term “counterspace,” which is essentially 4D geometry
Describe the etheric realm as counterspace — where:
•lines diverge instead of converge
•space expands inward
•gravity reverses
•forms “grow out of the infinite”
This is much closer to higher-dimensional geometry (like a tesseract) than to normal physics.
⸻
Steiner never said “tesseract,” but he described the etheric world, the astral world, and the human higher bodies as
four-dimensional geometric realities,
of which physical 3D forms are merely shadows—almost exactly what a tesseract is to a cube.
Earth becomes limbo for many people and they get stuck here for a while, evolving slowly
everything you hide and do inwardly will be revealed.

This is one of his deepest ideas, and it appears in many lecture cycles — especially Theosophy, Occult Science, Life Between Death and Rebirth, and the Berlin lectures.

The Great Reversal at Death:
Inner becomes Outer, Outer becomes Inner
At death, the entire structure of human perception reverses:
During life:
•The outer world is outside us.
•Our thoughts, feelings, moral impulses are inside us.
After death:
Our inner soul-life becomes the “world” we live in.
The universe becomes an INNER SPACE, and our inner being becomes an OUTER WORLD.
This is not metaphorical.
It is literal in the spiritual sense.
⸻
Immediately after death: the Life Panorama becomes an “outer world”
Right after we die, we experience:
•a gigantic tableau of our whole life
•surrounding us like a cosmic screen
•visible from outside ourselves
All our experiences, choices, emotions, and hidden motives are shown “around” us.
In life, these were inner memories.
After death, they stand outside of us like a landscape.
This is the FIRST sign of the inward–outward reversal.
⸻
Kamaloka: Our own desires appear as an external environment
in Kamaloka (the astral purification stage):
Every selfish impulse, every desire, every untransformed emotion appears to us as if we are walking through it from the outside.
What was inside us now confronts us as an objective world.
For example:
•Our anger appears as a disturbing astral storm.
•Our unkindness appears as coldness surrounding us.
•Our unfulfilled desires appear as tormenting flame-like beings.
In Earth life we could hide these things inside.
In Kamaloka they are outer facts, impossible to escape.
We judge ourselves by walking through our own soul as an outer world.
⸻
Why does this reversal happen?
Because the soul must SEE itself.**
the physical body hides the truth of who we are.
The physical life lets us:
•forget parts of ourselves
•repress impulses
•deceive ourselves about motives
•focus outward
After death, deception becomes impossible:
The spiritual world forces us to look at our own being as clearly as we once looked at mountains, cities, and the sky.
All meaning becomes clear because:
•motive
•consequence
•karma
•moral truth
•real intention
…are all visible in full objectivity.
This clarity is called “cosmic truthfulness.”
⸻
After Kamaloka, the entire cosmos becomes our inner world
As we ascend toward Devachan
(the spirit world):
The stars no longer appear outside us.
We feel the constellations as our own inner forces.
The Zodiac becomes:
•our organs
•our spiritual skeleton
The planets become:
•moral impulses
•faculties
•creative powers
Something astonishing happens:
The universe that was outside becomes our interior,
and our moral world becomes the universe around us.
This is the FULL reversal.
Meaning appears because every act shows its karmic consequence as an objective cosmic form
“Meaning” is not abstract.
It is the visible form of karma in the spiritual world.
When our inner actions become external reality, their meaning becomes unavoidable.
Examples:
•A loving deed becomes a radiant spiritual landscape.
•A hateful deed becomes a heavy, dim region we must walk through.
•A lie becomes a distortion in the astral environment.
•A sacrifice becomes a shining force in Devachan.
The spiritual world is built out of moral architecture.
We meet the Christ impulse because moral truth becomes external cosmic law**
The moral world-order appears as the real cosmic order.
This is the revelation of Christ.
In life, Christ works inside the conscience.
After death, Christ appears outside as the cosmic moral sun.
This is the encounter with the Christ in the midnight hour of existence.
“there is all the meaning there”
Because in physical life:
•meaning is hidden
•karma is invisible
•motives are private
•conscience is internal
•purpose is unclear

Exclusive: Who is "Professor" Jiang? Who does he work for?
In 2014, Jiang Xueqin published his book Innovation China Education), in which he provides a basic introduction to his own life story. He was born in 1976 in Taishan City, China. At the age of 6, he immigrated to Canada with his parents and grew up in Toronto.
Having spent only a short period living in Guangdong during his childhood, Jiang did not speak Mandarin in his early life. Only after enrolling at Yale University in 1995 as an English Literature major that he began formal Mandarin classes and learned to read and write Chinese.

Moral inversion and the rise of authoritarian sympathy
Ideologies that claim to be anti-oppressive, like antizionism and far-left progressivism, say they fight for the oppressed and against the violation of universal human rights.
We put these claims to the test, by asking 1270 Americans to assess the human rights records of democracies and authoritarian regimes, and take a battery of psychological tests.
The results were striking. Study link and highlights in 🧵

We put these claims to the test, by asking 1270 Americans to assess the human rights records of democracies and authoritarian regimes, and take a battery of psychological tests.
The results were striking. Study link and highlights in 🧵
We found a cluster of associations, all correlated with each other, that predicted moral inversion: "a pattern in which the perceived human-rights standing of Western democratic states declines relative to that of authoritarian regimes"
The cluster included antizionism, generic antisemitism, endorsement of both antisemitic Soviet imagery and Hitler quotes (taken directly from Mein Kampf) directed against Israel, and left-wing "progressive" authoritarianism.
The same pattern appears over and over - green lines (ratings of democracies) decrease and red lines (ratings of authoritarian regimes) increase as scores go up for each variable in the cluster. At the high end of each variable, Israel is viewed as worse than North Korea!

The same pattern appears over and over - green lines (ratings of democracies) decrease and red lines (ratings of authoritarian regimes) increase as scores go up for each variable in the cluster. At the high end of each variable, Israel is viewed as worse than North Korea!
Given the centrality of Israel in these plots, we investigated the relationship between antizionism and generic antisemitism further.
We performed the largest-scale measurement in the world (N = 8457) of the validated Generalized Antisemitism scale, which measures both, and plotted them against each other.
The take-away: Antizionism and generic antisemitism are strongly correlated (by social psychology standards) BUT they are not identical.
The key asymmetry: Despite the correlation, many antizionists claim not to hold antisemitic views (red square), but the reverse is not true (green square). This is what lets antizionism avoid social taboos against generic antisemitism.
But our data reveals the ideological company antizionism keeps - it predicts moral inversion, generic antisemitism, endorsement of Soviet / Nazi propaganda, and remains guilty by association. The fact that it can exist outside specific traditional taboos makes it more dangerous.

Appropriate time to post about our new paper in press (American Psychologist), examining antisemitism in LLMs. Across three different models (GPT, DeepSeek, Mistral) we that the latent representation of Jews in LLMs echoes the old "puppet master" trope. 1/n
Using a sort of free-association method on LLMs, we sought to probe something like the cultural sub-conscious embedded in the model. We concretized this by asking which fictional characters are similar to the Jewish and non-Jewish attribute vector.
The study was led by Gal Gutman, with the help of @mattansb, @MaorLevitin, Hilla Shinitzky, @yshemesh , @maayan_peer, and the rest of the epistemic processing lab. An earlier version can be found here: . Please contact me if you want the final version.osf.io/preprints/psya…

1. The Gratitude Pivot
Situation: You are a day or two late replying to an email because you were slammed with other work.
Response: Thank you for your patience while I reviewed this.
Why it works: Apologizing makes you the person who messed up. Thanking them makes them the person who was generous with their time. It shifts the entire power dynamic of the conversation from defensive to appreciative.

Situation: You are sending over a deliverable that missed the original morning deadline.
Response: Here is the finalized report you requested. I have also included the Q3 projections.
Why it works: It completely bypasses the delay and focuses their attention immediately on the value you are delivering right now. Busy managers care more about the final product than a 3 hour delay.

My dear Mum is injured so I’ve had to dash to accompany her to A&E. This is the waiting room right now. Except it’s not just this - there is a second overflow waiting room (where we’re heading). Six hour wait just for triage apparently. World-class experience this.
Live from the hellscape that is the Royal Free NHS Trust and a Bulgarian man is having a barney. He’s taken it upon himself to sit in what I think is meant to be a nurses’ station of some sort and has just kicked a bin over. The security are refusing to intervene.
Some sort of healthcare worker has just come out and in what I can only describe as broken English reiterated the rule that it’s 1 relative per patient. There are at least two large family groups. No one is budging. Very chaotic in here.
If God wants you to leave a woman, he will show you these Nine signs…
(Save this for later)
Here are the 9 signs…
(Save this for later)
Here are the 9 signs…
1. The Inversion of Sexual Polarity
You find yourself in the receptive, emotional, chasing role.
You are the one seeking reassurance, managing her moods, apologizing first.
She is cold, detached, logical. The natural order has flipped.
You were not designed to be the woman in the relationship. When polarity inverts, attraction dies.
And what dies slowly becomes unbearable.

And what dies slowly becomes unbearable.
2. The Presence of Contempt
Contempt is different from frustration or anger.
Frustration says "I'm upset about what you did." Contempt says "You are beneath me."
It lives in the eye roll when you speak, the smirk when you share an opinion, the dismissive wave of her hand when you matter.
Anger can be healed. Contempt cannot. When she looks at you like you are insignificant, something inside you begins to wither.

It's a somewhat known fact that the soviet tanks had a problem of being very similiar in many regards but using different sizes of bolts, nuts, screws etc. and sometimes needing specialist tools. But rarely is it mentioned how severe the problem was, time for a short thread!

The situation between only the 3 main tanks of the late soviet union that is T-64, 72 and 80 was a bit better, with 9 tools and 7 wrenches being unified on them, however, at the same time they had most of the non-unified tools too, totaling 27 tools and 39 wrenches with T-80

NEW | US Central Command (CENTCOM) announced that no vessels have breached the US blockade on Iranian ports since CENTCOM implemented its blockade on April 13. The US blockade on Iranian ports does not have a defined geographic boundary and the United States can interdict vessels almost anywhere in international waters until they arrive at their final port. It is unclear whether any of the vessels that left Iranian ports on April 14 were authorized to do so under CENTCOM’s “limited grade period.” (1/6)
The United States’ decision not to renew a 30-day sanctions waiver for Iranian oil exports, which is set to expire on April 19, will further constrain Iran’s ability to export oil in addition to the US blockade on Iranian ports. Two US officials told Reuters on April 14 that the US Treasury Department will enforce sanctions on Iranian oil after April 19. (2/6)
Iran is reportedly considering temporarily pausing shipments to avoid testing the US blockade on Iranian ports and raising tensions ahead of possible talks, according to a person familiar with Iranian decision-making on the Strait of Hormuz speaking to Bloomberg on April 14. Iran would only be able to pause shipments for a limited period of time before it would start to run out of room to store oil. Iran could also pursue several other courses of action in response to the US blockade, including agreeing to a deal acceptable to the United States, attempting to run the blockade, or resuming the war.

Still thinking about the Anthropic recs where step #1 is the equivalent of:
“If you’re homeless, just BUY a HOUSE????”
Honestly, “patch every exploitable vuln immediately” is like toddler level strategic thinking. Let them eat cake. Baby’s first seceng job.

Patching every vulnerability is what every security engineer would love to do, but it’s so detached from reality to just recommend it.
How do you prioritize? Who is pushing the fixes? How dos this scale?
Ofc their answer to that is: just use more Claude tokens

Someone asked if I could tell them where to buy a pair of good chinos. In this thread, I will tell you, but my answer is not simple. On the upside, I think this is a better approach when shopping for clothes and you can apply it to any kind of item. 🧵
A simple answer will go something like this: "Such-and-such makes the highest quality chinos." Or "this brand provides the best value." While potentially useful in some respects, I don't think this gives you the fullest picture.
Instead, let's start at the beginning.

During the 1898 Spanish-American War, US troops stationed in the Philippines wore sand-colored pants made from a heavy cotton twill woven in China. Since the Philippines had been under Spanish colonial rule at this time, the locals call these "pantalones chinos" (Chinese pants).
1. The responses to this illustrate a point I've been making for years: namely, that people tend to view the causation behind what is asserted here as binary. It was *either* the societal non-pharmaceutical interventions (notably, the lockdowns) *or*...
2. ... the direct effects of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that significantly altered many societies globally (some much more so than others).
As I first explained on a client call with a major international energy company in 2020, pandemics are social phenomena.

3. That is to say, societies are changed by both the direct effects of the pathogen responsible for the pandemic (in this case, SARS-CoV-2) - mass death, disease, and disability - and by governments' responses to the situation. In other words, *causation is multi-factorial*.
With the president of the United States now thinking of himself as Jesus, I figured I’d tell you about the very Trump like Chinese peasant who, after having dreamt one night that he was the younger brother of Jesus, started arguably the bloodiest civil war in human history. 🧵
Born in 1814 in an impoverished Chinese village, the sound of mind Hong Xiuquan would misguide his family into pouring all their meager savings into his education, in hopes of him dragging them out of poverty by passing the infamously difficult Chinese Civil Service Exams.
Having spent his entire childhood and teenage years preparing for it, he managed to completely fail the exam three times in a row, more or less bankrupting himself and his entire extended family in the process, which led him to have a rather understandable mental breakdown.
How much vending machines pay you:
1 machine = ~$800/month
5 machines = ~$4,000/month
10 machines = ~$8,000/month
20 machines = ~$16,000/month
I own 85 machines that generated $124,364 in revenue last month.
Here's exactly how:

Most people think vending is just about placing machines and collecting cash.
It’s not.
What really makes you successful is solving a problem businesses already have.
AKA, employees getting hungry during shifts with nowhere convenient to buy food.

Scaling is just copy-paste.

1) Allow me to address and refine a pretty common approach to Trump among MAGA. There is a notion that every move he makes "here" is predetermined to "obscure" some other move he is making "over there." He is brilliant, but that's not how he set it up.
2) When we were in Hollywood looking to sell our film, I met numerous successful directors. One of the things they explained was that anyone who sees success in Hollywood has multiple projects all going at once--rolling rocks up a hill.
3) They expected that some rocks would get stuck, some would roll back down, but that sooner or later they'd get rocks over the top and the projects would roll.
4) That's the way to view Trump's policies now for over a year.
5) In 2017 he fired up the rock rolling machines.
