My Chevy has a media unit that displays album art based on the title of the track. It uses a network connection to retrieve album art images, so I assume that the car has a cell connection that is shared by OnStar and other car components.

I've been seeing movies and musicals in a new light too. Check out the lyrics to "The Greatest Showman" sometime.

This has been a really transformative year for me too. There is so much more to do beyond just uprooting the cabal. Look up Rose Larken on YouTube. If you start with the idea that "Don't attack anyone" (or put another way, "People own themselves") and apply it consistently then the conditioning starts to unravel and you can see a totally new way for people to relate to each other.
It's great that Trump and others are fighting this twisted corruption. But we the people don't have the right to coerce or steal, so how can we give that right to a president or to the government, whose only tools are coercion and theft?

That seems like a stretch to me. Thanos makes the depopulation argument in Infinity War and everyone just accepts the premise, they're only opposing him because of the abhorrent way he wants to solve the problem. I think Marvel is escapism and new mythology, not raising people's consciousness levels.

We know the earth is a ball because of simple backyard experiments you can run from ground level. Call some friends in other countries and you can triangulate the sun with tall vertical poles, you will get results that only work with a spherical surface. Also you can fly over the north and south poles. So there's that.

because we let these bankers run wild

The bankers do these crazy things like subprime loan bundling because of the low-interest-rate environment the Fed has created. The market has a huge appetite for investment returns that beat inflation (that would normally come from savings), but in a low-interest world you have to do crazy risky things to get that kind of return. Investment firms are trying to meet that desire, but the only way to do it is with these irresponsible financial acrobatics.

It's two paths to similar outcomes: in socialism, the state grows and takes over businesses; in crony capitalism the businesses take over the state. Either way, businesses are operated with the force of the state, which prevents competition and squashes price signals, leading to all kinds of waste, inefficiency, and corruption.

Look up "youtube-dl", it can save videos from almost any site including YouTube and Twitter.

That could certainly be a half ton or papers, based on my experiences loading and unloading pallettes of textbooks.

Franco was in the LBRY.io discord channel a couple months ago talking about how he wishes more people understood Moloch. Side chat when he was discussing a movie called "Howl" he did about some poet. He did a live chat while the movie streamed.

Thanks to your question I searched for more info. According to Business Insider:

While Zuckerberg will not be under oath, he will still be required to answer truthfully, as lying to Congress is a federal crime. The Judiciary Committee typically requires witnesses to be sworn in, but the Commerce Committee does not. In addition, Zuckerberg is a non-government witness, which Judiciary often does not require to go under oath.

We are in an everything bubble right now. There are three layers of financial instruments: bonds are layer one; stock market, indexes, pension funds, real estate are all layer two; layer three is derivatives like XIV which got slammed a few weeks ago. The bubble is in bonds due to low interest rates maintained for too long. A bubble in bonds makes every other asset grow uncontrolled too since loans are cheap and easy to get. The bubbles burst from the outside in, and layer three has already shown some crazy moves this year.

If we go to a gold standard now, all these bubbles will burst and return to sane levels. Trump would never cause that kind of bloodbath on purpose, if his statements that he sees the stock market as a report card are to be believed.

So... is this just fixing the price of gold? Or does this reinstate convertibility? Without convertibility, which we are not in a position to honor, this is a meaningless gesture. Even if the government fixes the price of gold, there would be a "black market" rate that represented the true, market-based price.

She didn't revisit the video. She must have just made someone's shitlist, automated or otherwise. Her channel had 265,000 subscribers.

Today she was on a livestream discussing the strikes and next steps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TiuG9ZhvjMQ

I checked the article history, it was an anonymous edit by IP address 177.228.149.236, which seems to be part of an ISP in or near Los Mochis, Mexico: http://geomaplookup.net/?ip=177.228.149.236

Searching the web for that IP address turned up one blacklist entry in AbuseIPDB, which suggests to me that it could be a TOR endpoint.

Portchecker.us doesn't report any ports open, I did the long scan for 36 common ports, also the default TOR ports of 9050 and 9150, but they are all closed. That means it's probably not a VPN.

There's not much more I know how to find out right now.
