In 1992, Adriano Tirazzi was a tour guide giving Vespa tours of the Amalfi Coast.

Luca Ferrando was the company mechanic. Covered in grease and fixing scooters, a synth beat in his head kept his wrench turning to the rhythm.

#ItaloDisco #MindEnterprises 2) They met over a busted muffler and a half-pack of Nazionali Blue cigarettes.

Adriano, clean shaven and constantly working on tech-poetry, heard Luca's percussion tapping while tuning a Vespa.

That night, they stayed up drinking Campari and layering synth riffs loosely based on Aha's "Take On Me."

He saw the future—and warned us.

On Good Friday, you know Jesus died.
That the sun went dark. The curtain tore.

Not metaphor. Not parable.

The story of Noah's Ark is mocked
—relegated to children’s books and Sunday school songs.

But now, in a remote corner of Turkey, science is telling a different story.

And it's one the faithful already knew. 🧵 1. The Bible says Noah’s Ark came to rest “on the mountains of Ararat.”

For centuries, explorers searched the peak of Mt. Ararat itself.

But in 1959, a Turkish army captain spotted something unusual in the foothills—22 miles away.

Even Life Magazine wrote about it.

The White House is more than just a symbol of power.

It’s an architectural masterpiece with hidden rooms, secret tunnels, and stunning details.

In ancient Rome, one woman changed everything.

When Christianity was in its infancy, her actions changed its course forever.

What she unearthed will transform your understanding of Christianity: 🧵 Helena was the mother of Emperor Constantine the Great, who ruled the Roman Empire from 306 to 337 AD.

Her conversion to Christianity, along with her son's, was a turning point for Christianity's status in the empire.

To connect the early Christian church with tangible evidence of its roots, she undertook a pilgrimage to Israel.

These are some of the most revered items she protected.
