Hello everyone, it’s important that we realize just how oppressive the Epstein class has become, and nothing shows this more strikingly than EFTA01830200.

Apparently back in 2010 Epstein paid Seckel tens of thousands of dollars to clean up his image online. They used bots and hacking campaigns to drive the sex trafficking news stories out of search results and instead pushed Epstein’s supposed "philanthropic work" funding scientists. They also fucked with his Wikipedia page big time. You want proof we’re living in 1984 and the Mandela effect isn't just your imagination? This is it right here.

That was 16 years ago, now imagine the unseen shit they’re doing with the tools of today, like targeting individuals. It’s only going to get worse.

Saw this coming when Bungie announced Marathon right after Lightfall all but killed Destiny 2. It was clear at that moment they were sick of working on Destiny and all the talent had moved to Marathon.

This is just kind of insulting after they repeatedly tried to reassure players that D2 was continuing and that new content was coming only to put everything in Marathon and realize they were sick of Destiny.

By all accounts Marathon is a good game, but I don't see it carrying Bungie while they make something new. It's player counts aren't that high and Sony just had to write off a monetary loss on purchasing Bungie.

Hey everyone~~

oh no, it's been two months since I've posted anything around here, when I was looking for help. Seems like I'm way less interested in being terminally online when I'm living my best life.

So just a quick catch up: Been wearing skirts out pretty much exclusively and am loving it. Strangers have been less derogatory than I expected, I can still count the vocally bad encounters on my fingers. Something I didn't consider for a second in the anxiety around this I've had before - there's also people who just treat me better, warmer than I'm used to. Mostly women, actually.

Thanks to your kind advice I took more control over my journey, which felt incredibly good, mostly. Was lucky enough to find a gynecologist who gave me a private prescription of my first estradiol gel following informed consent, more or less. Dosage is on the low end, planning on increasing next week and hopefully adding some blockers into the mix.

Also contacted some more therapists and found someone very kind, who sent me the written indication I need to get access to HRT through health care. It got lost in the mail, though, second attempt should be out tomorrow x).

Last but not least, started a new job (software engineering, of course), which is exhausting, but also a pretty nice opportunity. That old trade-off, time or money, pick one - yikes. Had some downers lately as well, dysphoria is kicking in really bad at times, but I'll manage.

Well, today was a very special day. I went to the local registry office and officially changed my name and gender. It took three months of waiting and now I own an updated birth certificate with my new name and identity.

Didn't really expect this, but I can hardy describe how good that felt - I've had literal tears of joy. I'm not sure I ever had these, from laughing maybe, but not from pure, unadulterated joy. Such an amazing relief, to finally be able to do the paperwork to get rid of that old name.

One of my best friends accompanied me today, he was really sweet. He gave me a small rag doll and a lighter, explained that's deadname and I shall burn him and bury him somewhere. Absolutely gonna do that :>

Well, that's all for now, just had to shout this out somewhere.

Thanks for being here and being yourselves <3

I love it. It's elegantly simple piece of electronics, while also being an amazing audiovisual spectacle. For the whole office.

Der zentrale Punkt der Bloomberg-Analyse: Nicht die Frage, ob ein Vermögenswert „real“ oder „nominal“ ist, entscheidet über seine Attraktivität bei hoher Inflation – sondern seine sogenannte Duration. Gemeint ist damit die durchschnittliche Zeitspanne, bis ein Investor seine erwarteten Cashflows erhält. Je weiter Gewinne in der Zukunft liegen, desto empfindlicher reagieren Aktien auf Inflation und steigende Zinsen.

Und genau hier liegt das Problem bei Aktien. Unternehmen erwirtschaften ihre Gewinne über viele Jahre oder sogar Jahrzehnte hinweg. Besonders Wachstums- und Tech-Aktien basieren auf der Hoffnung auf hohe Gewinne weit in der Zukunft, weshalb ihre Bewertungen deutlich höher ausfallen als etwa bei klassischen Value-Aktien. Steigt die Inflation jedoch dauerhaft, verlieren genau solche langfristigen Zahlungsströme massiv an Attraktivität. Genau darin könnte derzeit die größte Gefahr für die Aktienmärkte liegen.

Da ich in Energie- und Rohstoffaktien (Batterie) investiert bin, habe ich zufälligerweise die richtigen im Portfolio. Und diese sind in der Tat die, die am kräftigsten Steigen.

Ein World-ETF mit seiner Übergewichtung der US-Tech Aktien ist aus der Sicht eine eher schlechte Wahl.

Zionism's anti-socialist activism was born with the movement itself. In talks with the German Kaiser and his ministers in the mid-1890s, the founder of the Zionist Organization, Theodor Herzl, assured the Germans that Zionism would distance Jews from socialism: "It was folly on the part of Jews to join the Socialism movement, which would soon rid itself of them."

Herzl added that the Kaiser "was impressed when I mentioned the fact that at the University of Vienna we have taken students away from Socialism". Zionism, he added, would also spur Jews not to join revolutionary and anti-Kaiser organisations: "We were taking the Jews away from the revolutionary parties."

Indeed, it was Zionist anti-communism that clinched the alliance with anti-Bolshevik Britain. The timing of the 1917 Balfour pledge of British support for Zionism's quest for a "national home" for Jews in Palestine - issued only five days before the triumph of the October Revolution in Russia - was not a coincidence.

Acting on false reports from Zionist informants claiming that most Russian Jews were Zionists who might otherwise support socialism, British officials grew anxious after the February Revolution regarding Jewish backing for the socialist movement.

In April 1917, Lord Robert Cecil, then parliamentary secretary to the Foreign Office, telegraphed the British ambassador in Petrograd, arguing: "We are advised that one of the best methods of counteracting Jewish pacifist and socialist propaganda in Russia would be to offer a definite encouragement to Jewish nationalist aspirations in Palestine."

NVIDIA reported its Q1 2026 earnings with revenue reaching $81.6 billion, setting a new record. Amid these record-breaking results, the company announced a change in how it reports revenue from its GeForce RTX gaming GPUs. According to NVIDIA CFO Colette Kress, the standalone GeForce RTX GPU gaming revenue is no longer separately listed and is now integrated under the "Edge Computing" segment. This segment "highlights devices for agentic and physical AI, including PCs, game consoles, workstations, AI-RAN base stations, robotics, and automotive." The last standalone report for gaming revenue was in Q4 2025, where NVIDIA posted $3.7 billion. Now, under the "Edge Computing" category, NVIDIA reported $6.4 billion, an increase of 10% from the previous quarter and 29% from the same period last year, when this segment had a different name.
