Space Oddity: the weird history of the Soviet ANS synthesizer
The sound of Tarkovsky's Solaris, The Mirror and Stalker was generated by a strange machine that created sounds with drawings.
"Never in all of your reading, all of your listening, all of your Wikiholes and long benders on the YouTube algorithm will you come across a machine more mysterious than the Soviet-engineered ANS synthesizer."

Robert F Kennedy Jr: 1 year of failure
In his first speech as Secretary of the US Department of Health and Human Services
(HHS), Robert F Kennedy Jr laid out a plan to restore trust. The COVID-19 pandemic
saw public faith in Federal health...
"10 days after his speech about trust & openness,
HHS rescinded a 54yo policy of soliciting public
comments for new regulations, silencing
the voices the stakeholders he pledged
to serve..."
And MUCH more. Powerful rundown of RFK Jr damages @thelancet.com www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

U.S. ambassador to Canada requests apology for Globe and Mail column
In a letter to The Globe and Mail, Pete Hoekstra said he was ‘disappointed and outraged’ over Cathal Kelly’s column on U.S. men’s hockey team
What a sensational example of being a sore winner.
Imagine having everything you want in life, treating people horribly and then being a salty little cracker because people aren't kissing your feet.
Mange la merde, mon homme.

American Jews have been TRYING to tell folks that yes, AIPAC is evil, & fuck them, but Christian Zionists in the US outnumber Jews IN THE WORLD & have risen to power in all areas of our government, & they want to bring the End Times (& kill all the Jews btw), AND THIS IS WHAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT.

Neve Campbell on the phone in Scream 5, even though you might think this scene was in Scream 6.
Has anyone else noticed a Mandela Effect where people remember a scene in SCREAM VI where someone calls Sidney and Sidney says she won’t get involved this time, even though that scene was actually in SCREAM (2022)?
(I remembered it this way too for a while, so I’m wondering if it was just me.)

When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.
In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.
In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.
And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

OTTAWA: Neo-Nazi at Splash Wave Pool
Today at
swim lessons, this individual showed up,
apparently with kids. If you're unfamiliar, his shirt represents the white supremacist group Hammerskins, also known as Crew 38.
Our family felt quite unsafe so we brought it up to the Head Lifeguard (late teens, maybe early 20s). She told us they've been aware of him coming to swim classes in this particular attire for about a month and have informed their superiors but nothing has come of it. We have messaged our city councillors.
Please stay vigilant if you come across this individual or others from his chapter.
Made public, share away!!!
