In the 1970s, when the US armed the "brave freedom fighters of Afghanistan.' They decided to arm the fundamentalists BECAUSE they would not place the highest priority on social and economic development..and hence allow the US to extract away! ImageImage
This sounds like an assassination order. ImageImageImage
"Given this poverty, this revolutionary regime's goals would in themselves deserve genuine support from most people interested in bettering the lot of Afghan people"

Words Not spoken but implied: But since, we, the United States have no interest in this, we will oppose them. ImageImage

افسردگی فقط تو ذهن نیست؛ در واقع احساساتیه که تو بدن گیر افتادن

بسل ون در کولک و گابور ماته (که هر دو پزشک هستن) دیدگاه روان‌پزشکی رو زیر و رو کردن:
نمیشه فقط با دارو حل کرد
نمیشه فقط با فکر کردن ازش گذشت
نمیشه فقط با حرف زدن درمان کرد

حالا بیا ببینیم چطوری میشه ازش خلاص شد: Image
Image
افسردگی تو طول زندگی سراغ بیشتر ماها میاد. ون در کولک و ماته میگن که این قضیه معمولاً فقط به هم خوردن ساده‌ی تعادل شیمیایی مغز نیست. خیلی وقتا نتیجه‌ی تروماها (آسیب‌های روانی) و زخم‌هاییه که هضم نشدن. غم، خشم و ترسی که تو بدن گیر کردن و یه بار تاریک و خفه‌کننده رو به وجود آوردن. Image
تحقیقات خفن بسل ون در کولک نشون میده که «بدن همه‌چی یادش می‌مونه».
افسردگی فقط تو سرت نیست، بلکه تو سیستم عصبی، عضله‌ها و بافت‌های بدنت ذخیره شده. اون آسیب‌هایی که نتونستی بروز بدی یا هضمشون کنی، خودشون رو به شکل افسردگی نشون میدن.

James Comey has reportedly been indicted for a second time. Last September, he was charged with lying to Congress over leaks to the press. The case was then dismissed by a federal judge who found that the interim US Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia had been improperly appointed.
...Late last year, the first indictment was dismissed over the challenged status of the acting United States Attorney. The Administration may now have cured that deficiency. The original indictment was disjointed due to the rejection of one count. It is not clear what the array of charges may be and whether it is again focusing on false statements under 18 U.S.C. 1001. jonathanturley.org/2025/11/25/try…
...There has been a suggestion in early reporting that Comey might be charged over his image of shells spelling 86 47. That would be a tough case given the likely First Amendment challenge that the statement (even if it had a lethal meaning) was still protected speech...

🚽NEWS YOU CAN USE: I sat down with @SwampToilets, the congressional staffer whose self-described "obsession" with well-appointed bathrooms has led her on a quest to find the best (and worst) lavatories on Capitol Hill.

Read on below ⤵️ Image
I had a wide-ranging chat with Symphony Rojas, who dished to me about what makes a good bathroom and where some of her faves are in the Capitol complex.

Her white whale commode? @LeaderJohnThune's private restroom.

Buenos días. Hilo del día 1.535 de la guerra entre Rusia y Ucrania. Kiev resiste. Noche muy movida en Putinlandia. La defensa pechil de Rostovagropromzapchast, que es una empresa rusa especializada en el sector de la maquinaria agrícola, ha actuado otra vez excelentemente.
No podía faltar el enésimo ataque a la refinería «Slavneft-YANOS», controlada por «Rosneft» y «Gazprom». Un clásico ya de esta guerra...
Por cierto, si a alguien le interesa, aquí está mi intervención, no sé si buena o no, eso ya juzgadlo vosotros, en el programa de Toni Clapés de @rac1

1/ As Victory Day approaches in Russia, warbloggers are increasingly despondent and predict the fall of the regime in the face of drone attacks and social and economic problems. They perceive a rapid worsening of the situation and a sense that 'things can't go on like this.' ⬇️ Image
2/ Alex Kartavykh responds scornfully to a government statement, declaring:

"[The government is] noticing a noticeable shift in public sentiment here. And I'll also note for the record. My audience is slowly going nuts."
3/ "Everyone's going nuts and getting embittered, too; only a fool lacking empathy doesn't feel it. There's a fucking strong demand for radicalism. For someone to explain who the biggest asshole is and whose face needs to be punched.

No Predictions, Just Profits : How I Sell Options for Steady Income 🕒📊

Discover how to use advanced option selling strategies to win in all market conditions.

open this Thread 🧵👇
When to Sell Options : Timing is Everything Knowing the right conditions ensures you sell options profitably.

Optimal Conditions : High Implied Volatility (IV) : Sell when IV is high and expected to drop (IV crush).

Example : India VIX spikes to 20 after an unexpected Fed statement. Selling NIFTY options at high premiums becomes lucrative.
Range-Bound Markets :

Best for non-directional trades like strangles or iron condors.

Example : NIFTY stuck between 19,500-19,700 for 10 days.

Weeks to Expiry : Theta decay accelerates.

Example : A weekly option loses 60% of its value in the last 3 days. Image

Here is a thread of each of the UFO videos released today by the Department of War.
DOW-UAP-PR43, Unresolved UAP Report, Africa, 2025

The United States Africa Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of two seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2025. The reporter did not provide any oral or written description of the observation.

Video Description:00:00-00:02: A small, barely distinguishable area of contrast moves from the left side of the sensor field-of-view to the right side, exiting the scene from the bottom right quarter of the screen.
DOW-UAP-PR49, Unresolved UAP Report, Department of the Army, 2026

The Department of the Army submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of one minute and 49 seconds of video from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2026. The reporter did not provide any oral or written description of the observation.

Video Description:
00:00-00:08: The sensor tracks an initial area of interest.
00:09-00:16: The sensor disengages from its previous area of focus and pans from right to left to track two areas of contrast, narrowing the field-of-view to zoom in while panning to maintain the objects' positions generally within the center of the frame.
00:17-01:03: The sensor widens its field-of-view to zoom out, keeping the areas of contrast generally centered within the display.
01:04-01:08: The sensor field-of-view rapidly cycles between levels of zoom, causing the areas of contrast to appear to rapidly increase and decrease in size.
01:09-01:48: The sensor tracks the areas of contrast while maintaining a generally centered position, intermittently cycling between contrast settings.

Last week we shipped 50+ Claude Code reliability fixes. This week it's 60+ more.

Smoother long-running sessions, a more efficient agent loop, auth that works in more environments, and terminal fixes: 🧵
1/ Stability

• claude -p now handles >10MB of piped stdin
• Requests resume cleanly after waking a Mac from sleep
• Memory stays bounded when a stdio MCP server writes non-protocol data to stdout (was growing past 10GB)
• Output now appears reliably after thinking completes
2/ Agent loop

• Sub-agent summaries now hit the prompt cache
• Opt-in 1-hour prompt caching is now honored correctly
• Parallel shell calls keep running if a read-only sibling fails
• 1M-context sessions use their full window before hitting "Prompt is too long"

Virginia's map just got struck down. Is California next?

California's "mapmaker" drew its new maps to "ensure" that racially gerrymandered "VRA seats are bolstered in order to make them most effective." That's illegal under Callais.

@AAGDhillon: Here's how we can do it. 🧵 Image
California state law requires an "independent" Commission to draw its district maps.

But Newsom and state Legislature Dems overrode the Commission last year to gerrymander.

That meant hiring a "mapmaker"—Paul Mitchell—to do it.

But he drew an illegal racial gerrymander. Image
Image
Before SCOTUS's recent Callais decision, courts interpreted the VRA to effectively *require* racial quotas in gerrymandering.

As Justice Thomas explained, that was “repugnant to any nation that strives for the ideal of a color-blind Constitution.” Image

9 May Parade of Lies

It’s no accident that in war russia started they got everything H@tler promised them: superpower status, multiple slave nations and glory as heroes. Yet only Germany got all the blame.

Since russia is culture entirely built on lies, it’s important to truth and history that world sees their Great Patriotic War bullshit for what it is, theater. It’s entirely designed to support only thing that russians value. They value nothing else. Not truth. Not life. Not family. Not community. Not humanity. They only value myth of their greatness.

So russia’s big great patriotic war is just myth. Because without russia there would never have been WWI or WWII or H@tler. This thread will explain why that horde celebrating victory as heroes in war they actually help start is nothing but theater. They own N@zi Germany crimes and should have been destroyed with their creation, the German war machine 🧵Image
1. They, russians, will tell you that history of WWII starts in 1941 when H@tler’s axis powers invaded Ukraine breaking Soviet “non aggression pact”. Operation Barbarossa is actually when H@tler betrayed the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact that was actually Germany turning on its master and co accomplice in WWII. While russians will tell you they were attacked and they alone saved all Europe during this great patriotic war. Lies. Absolute lies.

In reality, history of WWII started in 1929 when russians began training German soldiers in violation of the Treaty of Versaille, which prohibited Germany from having Air Force. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipetsk_f…

Also the Kama tank school trained tankers and russian secret teams trained German soldiers.
2. Even earlier in 1917, russian n@zism spread to Germany through russian immigrants and money. By 1933 russian Protocols of Elders of Zion even infiltrated German schools. Image

Before Delta Force

Before the Navy SEALs

Before the Green Berets

There was Rogers' Rangers

America's first special operations unit

Founded in 1757

🧵1/5 Image
🧵2/5

Robert Rogers grew up on the New Hampshire frontier, where the line between settler and soldier didn't exist.

He learned to track, hunt, and fight from Native scouts and woodsmen.

By 30, the British were paying him to do what he'd been doing his whole life. Image
🧵3/5

In 1757, the British Army was getting slaughtered in the woods of North America.

Their formal European tactics were useless against French and Native ambushes.

Rogers proposed something radical: small, fast units that fought like the enemy fought.

The most famous mission came in 1759, when Rogers led 200 men 400 miles through enemy territory to destroy an Abenaki base.

After completing the mission, the hard part was making in home in the snow. Almost half of the force was lost in the brutal conditions.Image

Sarah, it’s Barry here.
Since you have now chosen to publicly puncture the carefully manufactured myth that the now disbanded “Obidient Movement” was some pristine, spontaneous uprising untouched by money or coordination, perhaps it is only fair that Nigerians hear the full story Image
2. So, by your own admission, people were hired and paid to “mobilise” for protests and court appearances?
Interesting. You see why I am compelled to disband the movement now?
I had thought the script we all agreed to with Peter Obi was that this was an entirely organic movement
3. millions of passionate Nigerians, driven solely by conviction, patriotism, and a burning desire for change. Not bank alerts, hired logistics, and backstage coordination.
So where exactly are the so called 10 million “organic followers” if mobilisation required financial

🚨 Chief Judge Shelly Dick has transferred a challenge to Louisiana's suspension of congressional primaries to the panel overseeing the redraw of the state's congressional map.

This panel previously struck down the map as a racial gerrymander and was affirmed by SCOTUS. Image
Image
This is a loss for Democrat-aligned groups hoping to block a redraw. They filed in the Middle District because President Obama appointed all of the judges to its bench.

The panel of judges overseeing the redraw is majority Republican-appointed.
Chief Judge Dick holds that the case belonged before the Western District because that court is already overseeing Louisiana’s post-Callais redistricting remedy, and letting another federal court intervene risked “conflicting judgments” over use of the invalidated SB8 map.

I've recently got in on the act of getting AI to solve open problems in mathematics. More precisely, I gave some questions asked by Melvyn Nathanson to ChatGPT 5.5 Pro, to which I have been given access, and it answered them. 🧵
I write about this in more detail in a blog post with a guest contribution from Isaac Rajagopal, a student at MIT on whose work ChatGPT built, who gives his assessment of the level of mathematical ability displayed by the model.
gowers.wordpress.com/2026/05/08/a-r…
But the tl;dr version is that the model proved a result that in my assessment would have made a perfectly reasonable chapter in a PhD thesis. It did this in a total of a couple of hours, with a few prompts from me that contained no mathematical input whatsoever.

¿Sabías que el creador del saxofón bebió ácido sulfúrico y sobrevivió a explosiones y a caídas de tres pisos cuando era niño? Fue un milagro que llegara a adulto, pero su mayor pesadilla fue la mafia musical que intentó asesinarlo en París. Adolphe Sax. Tira del hilo 🧵👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 Image
Adolphe Sax nació en Dinant, Bélgica, en 1814. Era hijo de un modesto fabricante de instrumentos y su infancia fue tan accidentada que sus vecinos lo apodaban "el niño fantasma". Se tragó una aguja, se quemó en una fragua y casi se ahoga en el río, pero esquivó a la muerte. Image
Al crecer, desarrolló una obsesión absoluta por la acústica y con solo 20 años rediseñó el clarinete bajo, pero tenía un sueño: crear un instrumento que combinara la agilidad de los vientos de madera con la inmensa potencia de los vientos de metal. Image

🚨⚡️Judge Sanket J. Bulsara at @EDNYnews denied my Motion for Summary Judgment and granted @KevinJames FRAUDULENT motion for summary judgment filed by @gordonreesllp, despite my position that the motion failed to comply with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and did not rebut the evidence in the record.

@gordonreesllp never denied or confronted the evidence. No evidence, no valid NDA, wrong full termination by a ghost company, only "character assassination" supported by the false narrative of Judge Bulsara. Abuse of power and lawfare.

I WILL CONTINUE SAYING THE TRUTH UNTIL THEY STOP LYING - FIRST AMENDMENT, FREE SPEECH, FREEDOM OF THE PRESS, BASED ON LAWS, FACTS, AND EVIDENCE!

The case record includes recordings, text messages, emails, a disputed termination letter, evidence concerning a ghost company, and other documentary evidence. All of it was filed in the case and remains part of the public record for anyone to review. Below are only a few from tons of evidence👇🧵

Including a video of @KevinJames days before filing the Complaint.

The evidence is overwhelming, yet the outcome shows how difficult it can be for individuals without money or influence to obtain justice against powerful parties.

This fight just started.

Never give up.

Other victims from the system / Warriors ❤️⚖️💪 include @SFranklmt, @ladybea67, @Jenilyn67961481, @MikeYup10, @TERYDIXON, @ProEthanSmith, and @GWash02221732.
