We have extraordinary brains and god-like technology, throttled by a medieval understanding of our minds and emotions.
We need to upgrade our understanding of the mind so we can claim our rightful inheritance as a species.

Yes, this is a textbook Streisand effect. Reporting the bunny-ears meme and comments to police amplified a local jab into international news, with the image now widely shared and dominating results.

In 2018, years into his battle with cancer, Norm Macdonald posted perhaps his greatest published thought.
“At times, the joy that life attacks me with is unbearable and leads to gasping hysterical laughter,” he wrote on X. “I find myself completely out of control and wonder how life could surprise me again and again and again, so completely. How could a man be a cynic? It is a sin.”

Is this the perfect example of the streisand effect, @grok

Phenomenal courage in the face of mortal danger shown by this man and the teacher he recognises. Respect & gratitude. 🙏
Bend, Oregon man who shot and killed a shooter at his daughters' school speaks out, praises female teacher for fighting the shooter, allowing him to have a clear shot.
Kaylub Giamanco says he is haunted by the sound of children pleading for their lives.
He also praised the teacher for grabbing the gunman's weapon, allowing him to take a shot at the shooter.
"I want to recognize [the teacher]. She gave me the opportunity to make my shot without losing my life..."
"I swung the door open, and I stepped in, and I fired, and they dropped to the ground... I looked down at the gunman, and he was scrambling for his weapon. And I looked at him, and I shot him 2 more times..."

You don't value the Freedom of Speech enough. You think you do, but you don't. France is about to censor the Internet as everything goes down. Get Starlink, get a VPN, pray Elon holds the line with X. Don't let yourself be censored. Don't let your voice be silenced.
Just in: France's Prime Minister asked telecom companies to prepare to block social media platforms. "I wish to have the ability to temporarily suspend access to these services in case of a repeat of urban violence," he wrote. @blast news broke the story.

You know who else had to shut down the TVs and internet to censor the chaos at home?
The Iranian regime when they killed tens of thousands.
Free speech and social media are the layer of accountability against tyranny / anarcho-tyranny.
If it goes, means shit is hitting the fan – at San Francisco, CA

Information exclusive Blast : le Premier ministre a préparé la coupure des réseaux sociaux pour le 24 octobre
Deux jours avant la manifestation du 24 octobre, le Premier ministre Sébastien Lecornu a demandé à Orange, SFR, Free et Bouygues Telecom de se tenir prêts à couper l’accès à TikTok, Instagram ,Snapchat et X. Blast révèle la lettre et le compte rendu de la réunion qui a suivi, où les opérateurs ont exprimé leurs doutes. Le gouvernement avait déjà utilisée cette mesure liberticide en Nouvelle-Calédonie en 2024, avant d’être désavoué par le Conseil d’État.

The BBC either
a) aren’t paying attention or
b) are giving the truth a deep tissue massage

"Only two sorts of people oppose free speech... snowflakes and totalitarians."
There are many things I disagreed with Ann Widdecombe about, but she's spot-on here
I admire those with the courage to be true to themselves, no matter how unpopular their views may be
RIP 🙏
Ann Widdecombe schools a roomful of woke students on the importance of free speech.
"Only two sorts of people oppose free speech... snowflakes and totalitarians."
"Nobody has the right to live their lives being protected from offence, or from insult, or from hurt feelings."
"It is an occupational hazard of living in society. And if you really can't take it, become a hermit."
"No matter how much we may disagree with somebody, we should defend to the hilt their right to say it."
"You succeed by defeating your opponent, not by wishing him away. You get nowhere by trying not to hear what is being said."
"You may feel virtuous today in what you will not hear, but tomorrow somebody may feel virtuous in not hearing what you have to say."
"Free speech is for all, not for the privileged few."

⚡️Existence has produced something capable of knowing that it exists.
And for one brief lifetime, that knowing looks out through your eyes.
“This is what it's like when a species prepares to depart for the stars. You don't depart for the stars under calm and orderly conditions; it's a fire in a madhouse.”
McKenna nails it 👊🏼🧡🔥

We just had this most amazing event. Honored the Wildfire Detection XPRIZE finalists, etc. Amazing. When we can solve pretty much any problem via incentive prizes, how can you not be excited about the future? #XPRIZE
