When I was a little kid, the school had me repeatedly tested to see where my IQ was but couldn't pin it down because I refused to complete the tests, so they just marked it as "at least 135" and put me into some sort of state controlled gifted program with additional monitoring.
The school then referred me to a specialist, and my parents would drive me very far to go see a special doctor. I liked it because the doctors would just watch me while I built Legos, and then we'd do some logic exercises that I enjoyed. There was always a counseling session attached to it as well where one doctor would ask questions and the other would take notes. I vividly remember being particularly interested in the fact that they had gold Legos, and the doctors wanted me to incorporate them into what I built- a task that I now recognize as testing to see how I handled off-nomimal instructions.
I always had fun because afterward, my dad would take me to Pizza Hut for the buffet, and the doctors would occasionally give me hot wheels cars.
Then, on the advice of these doctors, they took me to an experimental place where they hooked me up to machines to measure my brainwaves and try to "fix" my brain performance through a combination of lights, sounds, sensors, and shocks.
I had to go to this training where they would strap me into an (admittedly comfortable) chair for two hours with sensors all over my head, and I would get a mild shock every time I lost focus, and they would try to use sounds and abstract images projected onto a screen in front of me to try to help me "improve my brain activity". I would regularly complete tests and cognitive exercises as part of this.
I went there for about a year before it stopped. I asked why and all my parents said was that "it's a government program and the government doesn't want to pay for it anymore"
I don't really know how this all impacted me because I almost immediately buried all memory of it. I didn't regain memory of it until almost 15 years later, when I smelled an odor very similar to the office where I went. It caused me to have such a negative response that I was a wreck for months, and it seriously contributed to killing a four year relationship.
Now, I seem to remember it once per year around late October. I don't know why.
To this day, I still don't know who any of those people were, what their jobs were, or what the purpose was. My dad remembers taking me, but all he says is "they never really told me anything"
This may be the single most important interview ever - Bill Binney reveals he is being zapped through his walls with high tech energy beams. Twitter just deleted a tweet of mine which featured it - https://t.co/X3wfEqJtuN
Something I learned a long time ago is that you teach people how to treat you. We're currently experiencing the fruits of that. We need a government that will crush lawlessness to the point where people even considering doing something like this will get goosebumps thinking of what will happen to them once caught.
We've tried the carrot long enough. The stick is all they understand.
Local property taxes are crushing so many homeowners.
We need to provide relief.
And we need to embrace an important principle: truly owning your own home means your property shouldn’t be a piggy bank for local governments to extract revenue.
Homestead properties of Florida residents should be exempt from property taxes.
I’m issuing guidance to Florida’s prosecutors and law enforcement in light of the 1st DCA’s decision in McDaniels v. State.
Because no other appellate court has considered the constitutionality of Florida’s open carry ban since the SCOTUS decision in Bruen, the 1st DCA’s decision is binding on all Florida’s trial courts.
Meaning that as of last week, open carry is the law of the state.
@Maarblek This is the hidden hand in full view, and still unseen. The migrants who come and take over are supported by intelligence. They were ground surveillance for the global op in their home country and are brought here to spy on us. Intel helps them, as here: https://t.co/ea69Xo8qT5

Clown World's latest puppet, Zelensky, is about to get the Maidan treatment from his own handlers. The script is stale, the actors are obvious, and the ending is inevitable. US State Department puppetry never changes. https://t.co/UFUbvf21ZD

Some of you spent four straight years shouting “F**k Joe Biden!” at rallies and all of a sudden you’re like “Praying for Joe Biden and Family” 🤦♂️ at least be real. If it was jail or any other form of punishment you’d be cheering it on. Let evil carry itself out and answer to God on the other side, but don’t faux compassion for your own virtue and ego.
I'm a little curious - why is the so-called "US national debt" displayed on this clock? DOGE is about government efficiency, not odious debt. This country owes nothing to those who have undermined its political structure for over a century and twisted its immigration policy to commit genocide against the US majority population. It's fine with me if those sucking and growing fat on the globalist tit want to repay their bankster masters for the party they've been having, but I wasn't invited to the party and I'd better not feel it. From the vantage of any honest, loyal US citizen, the banksters can lube up, sit on their "national debt", and spin like prima ballerinas.
