NEPAL FLOOD: CHINA LAUNCHES RESCUE MISSION; NED GROUPS SEIZE OPPORTUNITY TO DEMONIZE CHINA
The first pilots from the China rescue mission to reach the Nepal Border Station were stunned at what they saw.
Nothing.
The border building had gone. The office building had gone. The car park full of coaches and cars was gone. The roads were gone.
But most shocking, the people had gone – literally hundreds of people who used the border crossing or worked there – it had all been swept away. All that remained was bare rock, with not one brick left standing on another.
.
RESCUE OPERATION LAUNCHED
A huge operation had been launched to save people after a fast-moving ocean of mud and rock had slammed through a valley on the border of China and Nepal.
More than 450 bodies had been found and more than 1,000 more people were still missing, with at least 500 missing on the Tibet side of the border.

NED’S TIBET GROUPS SPRING INTO ACTION
But while rescue workers from China and elsewhere were hard at work, something else had happened.
The China demonizers swung into action, trying desperately to politicize the tragedy.
These people were not expressing sadness for the lost individuals or care for the survivors. They were openly hunting for a way to blame China.
Nepalese citizen Gus Ferguson, a musician, was one of many who spotted this.
He wrote: “Empathy and Sympathy for the Victims of this Catastrophe? Not. a. Word. Just anti China propaganda.”

EXAMPLES [on the video]
International Campaign for Tibet, and the groups associated with it, are not showing no care for the victims, they’re mainly just happy to have an opportunity to take a dig at China.
Same with others, like this
And this
And this
And this
And this.

WHO FINANCES THEM?
Who finances International Campaign for Tibet?
Oh look, it’s the NED, described by the US government as a body that “destabilizes sovereign goverments”.
Who finances Students for a Free Tibet?
Oh look, it’s also the NED.
Don’t let them fool you.
Stay smart – stay skeptical.

Good News,
Dear citizens of world,
All those were praying and worried about what happened to people in the Green House during the catastrophic Nepal Floods
The family and house survived the ordeal.
The flood in Nepal moved boulders the size of cars for one reason. The stuff flowing through those valleys weighed almost twice as much as water.
Regular floodwater is about 1,000 kg per cubic meter. This surge came off a glacier avalanche loaded with pulverized ice, silt, sand and gravel, all moving as a single fluid. An engineering professor studying the disaster compared it to liquid cement. Debris flows like this approach 2,000 kg per cubic meter.
Density is why the boulders move.
Granite runs about 2,650 kg per cubic meter. Sitting in clear water, a boulder stays put forever. Sitting in a 2,000 kg slurry, buoyancy cancels roughly three quarters of its weight. A 500 ton rock suddenly pushes down like a 125 ton rock, and the current handles the rest.
The same density means every wave hits a building with about twice the force of clean water at the same speed. That's why entire settlements ended up encased in mud instead of just soaked.
The surge was violent enough to show up on instruments built for a different disaster. The USGS logged a magnitude 4.4 earthquake near the source, and researchers are still untangling whether a quake triggered the avalanche or the avalanche slamming into the river registered as the quake.
On one stretch of the Trishuli, the water rose 30 feet in half an hour. More than 95 people are confirmed dead and over 1,000 are still missing.
The boulder in the video is a measuring device. When something that size tumbles like a pebble, you're reading the density of everything around it.
🇨🇳🇳🇵 The mountain emptied a river onto the China-Nepal border, and Rasuwagadhi is gone.
A glacier-rock collapse sent the Lhende into the Bhotekoshi, destroying the bridge, port, and road to Tibet.
Hundreds are dead. More than 1,000 remain missing.
Rescue teams are flying in. Upstream, a debris lake is rising.
The Himalaya does not care about a Belt and Road plaque.

Elon Musk parked a $80,000 SUV 5 inches from another car. Then he opened the door anyway.
Fremont factory, September 29, 2015. Model X launch. Thousands in the room.
Normal doors don't open in that gap. Falcon Wing doors do.
Sensors scan the space in real time. The door lifts straight up first, then unfolds outward, recalculating the arc if it senses a wall, a roof, another bumper.
Zero contact. Zero scratches.
The room stops talking for a second. Then it erupts.
Musk had chased this design since his DeLorean obsession nearly killed the whole X program. Engineers fought him on it for two years.
The doors won.
10 years later, the clip still runs as the moment a car door became engineering theater.
Most people don't realize what just happened.
Nvidia just posted what we believe are the most impressive earnings in history, with market-wide implications.
This implies $670+ BILLION in revenue next year, up +2,390% from FY2023.
What's happening? Let us explain.
(a thread)
Inspiring.
Something I love about working in Elon's companies is that engineers get sent to the field to physically inspect real-world performance, not just sit in the lab and look at charts.
For someone who’s used to the London Underground, using the Subway in Glasgow is like stepping into a different world. Travelling with kids just after the morning rush hour, a woman dressed in orange warmly welcomed us all to the station concourse, engaged in chit chat, and then immediately offered us assistance to ensure we purchased the best value tickets for today.
The guy at the window then sold me a day pass that gave me change from a fiver, with the kids only being a couple of quid each as well. The train then arrived and there’s a sort of unwritten code where people ensure that those who were on the platform before them board the train first, as opposed to ‘elbows out, f**k you, and last one on board’s a massive sissy.’
You sit on the train and people sometimes actually want to talk to you instead of just glaring at you like they want you to spontaneously evaporate because you had the sheer nerve to get on the same train as them. ‘Here mate I’ll move so you can sit with your kids’ instead of not bothering so you end up getting off at Kings Cross with three of them by your side while the other one merrily wings their way to Cockfosters.
Finally, when you reach the other end and get to the ticket barrier, your mobile phone wallet hasn’t knackered the magnetic strip on the back of the ticket because there isn’t one - the cardboard has built-in NFC or whatever so you just tap it, the gate opens, and then you piss off and get on with the rest of your day.
Yeah, I know Glasgow’s subway is way, way smaller and there’s only two lines - an ‘outie’ and in ‘innie’ that both go round in a circle in opposite directions so if you get bladdered and fall asleep you’ll always eventually end up where you need to be. However, I didn’t leave the network feeling like I wanted to twat someone or emigrate to Greenland, which unfortunately is something I experience on The Tube more often than not.
$NVDA
I did not see a red flag in that Nvidia print.
Genuinely, I’m curious what red flags people are seeing. I’d be the first to nit-pick and try to figure out what the street is upset about, but this was genuinely one of the best calls Jensen has ever had.
It’s not even about the stock. Price is still below where it was just last week. I am trying to figure out if there is a reasonable argument outside of “AI is a bubble” to actually be meaningfully bearish here.
Jensen answered every question in a way that just proved demand was stronger than supply and Nvidia’s growth was not going to slow down.
- Beat the whisper numbers by a crazy amount including the guide.
- Bought back $20B of stock and guided to buy back a ton more.
- Kept margins basically the same.
- Answered circular financing fears by explaining how their model creates more proliferation of AI, even if bears don’t like their answer.
- Explained how open source and frontier models will work together.
- Said that their growth is only constrained because of the supply chain and nothing else.
- 40% of revenues are hyperscalers and even with increased competition, companies like Amazon pledged to buy ANOTHER 2M GPUs and even more CPUs.
- Street thought they’d do 40% rev growth next year and Jensen said the floor is basically 70% now.
Outside of the common bear cases, what was wrong with the print? Again, I don’t care much about the stock not moving because that is up to algos/the street/macro but for the company itself, I just do not see what to be meaningfully concerned about.
My dad was diagnosed with Stage 4 prostate cancer out of nowhere.
Just a few months ago, he was completely fine. His physical exam five months earlier showed normal lab results. Then, suddenly, he started feeling achy and exhausted.
They ran bloodwork, and his PSA came back at 141. It had been 3.4 just months earlier.
Scans showed Gleason 9 prostate cancer with widespread bone metastases. Stage 4.
We didn’t waste any time. Along with hormone blockers and chemotherapy, his oncologist started adding:
1. Ivermectin: 24 mg/day
2. Fenbendazole: 222 mg/day
Three months later, his PSA dropped from 141 to 0.25.
That’s a 99.8% drop.
He’s feeling much better, has more energy, and the numbers are moving in the right direction quickly. His oncologist is very happy with how he’s responding.
We’re still waiting on the next set of scans, but right now, we’re extremely grateful for how well things are going.
This isn’t medical advice—just sharing what happened with my dad. If you or someone you love is going through something similar, I hope this gives you a little hope.
🚨🇳🇵🇨🇳 Quick update on the tragic Nepal-Tibet floods we’ve been tracking... it's pure heartbreak.
At least 165 people gone in Nepal (and that number is still rising). 3 more dead in Tibet, with 265 still missing.
Nearly 400 travelers have VANISHED in Nepal, including hundreds of foreigners... Italy alone is missing 90 of its citizens.
What was first thought to be an earthquake was actually the massive ice-and-rock landslide. It was SO powerful it shook the ground like a magnitude 5.2 earthquake...
It crashed into the river, sending water surging downstream and destroying everything in minutes.
The main China-Nepal border crossing was gone in under a minute. Whole villages, roads and bridges just disappeared. Families are living through absolute hell right now.
Rescue teams are fighting hard, but it’s brutal. Helicopters hover low so people can climb to safety wherever they can.
Hundreds of families (perhaps more) are still waiting for any word on their loved ones. Praying some of them get good news soon 🙏💔

🇺🇸 A letter Trump received back in 1989 from legendary New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner.
In the letter, Steinbrenner urges Trump to run for president, after seeing him appear on Morton Downey.
"You were great! You tell it like it is... you should run for president some day and get the whole damn thing straightened out."
Steinbrenner died in 2010, so he never got to see President Trump... but he saw something in him.
If anyone could appreciate a guy who "tells it like it is," it was Steinbrenner... baseball fans know 😂
