23 years ago the dust was still settling from the most horrific terrorist attack to occur on American soil since Pearl Harbor. Grief, fear, and confusion were heavy on many hearts, as we each tried to make sense of such senseless devastation…

Do you remember what happened next? Those early days were filled w/impossible questions.

“How could [they] do this??” echoed over and over.

What [they] didn’t expect was the sweeping wave of patriotism and unity that engulfed our nation in response.

Once more, seeds of patriotism were planted deep in many souls.

🧵How many times have you learned about some historic figure and their silent heroics championing your rights and freedoms only after they’ve died?

In our age of debating internet privacy and parameters, let’s revisit an old friend you likely never knew - John Perry Barlow. 🇺🇸 JPB was a prolific essayist, a rancher, and periodic lyricist for the Grateful Dead. A lifelong participant in “counterculture”, JPB was led by his innate moral code- supporting, then rejecting, political candidates across the aisle based on their alignment with his core beliefs.

🚨🚨🌊🧵 Over the past year, I’ve collaboratively dug on similarities between Covid + radiation poisoning w/ @armygir36701799 + @Marie17cf.

Their research led to Zeolite and Celtic sea salt as remedies against heavy metal toxicity.

It’s time to talk about how algae factors in… 2/ I first owe one caveat to this conversation: Regardless of your political ideologies, my research was prompted (not grounded) in part by the Q drops. So, I’ll make some references to those, but only to knit threads of my keyword searches and thought process together. Humor me.

Over 2023, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) have seemingly exploded into existence - opening the year w/the introduction of ChatGPT, and wrapping up with the recent addition of Grok.

But are their responses trustworthy? A 🧵on Data Pools and Training Sets… 2/ So what is AI/ML? Many hear the term AI and imagine muscled, killer robots or social media ad prompts that make you wonder who's listening in. In reality AI/ML is far more than those extreme options, returning us to the question, "what is AI?" Let’s start with some background:

1/17 What makes the first 10 (really 11) Constitutional amendments in the Bill of Rights so profound and essential?

Because not only had they each been trampled and lost before. But because 250 years ago, White Hats said “this can never happen again.”

Let’s explore further… 🧵 2/17 If you can’t tell the people but you “must show them” - sound familiar? It was probably oft on the lips of our forefathers.

Many are familiar with the stories of early pilgrims and colonists, seeking religious freedom and greater autonomy in the wilds of the “New World”.

1/ Thoughts on Precipices and the Importance of the Favor of the People

A king, a leader is only as powerful as the people allow/permit (him) to be. Sure we can fling “consent of the governed” comments and quote the Decl. about overthrowing tyrants.

But it’s so much bigger… 2/ Let’s step back in time.

Many people don’t realize Henry VIII deserves heavy credit for initiating the Reformation in England.

In short the Roman Catholic Church had been operating for centuries as the premiere power over nations and sovereigns alike, even across continents.

1/8 There seem to be a lot of misconceptions re: Freemasons.

It’s fascinating how instantly people jump on the bandwagon to hate them while crying “use discernment!” and “open your eyes and wake up!” - w/o applying the same principles of wisdom to this topic.

Let’s explore… 2/8 “What the #pope actually said was that the #SalvationArmy, the #Baptist church, the #Buddhists, and the #Mormons—in fact, every member of the human race who was not a Roman #Catholic—was part of the “kingdom of Satan.”
