Bahaha, concessions.

• A permanent and immediate cessation of war on all fronts, including Lebanon.

• The United States and its allies would be required to present reconstruction plans for Iran worth at least $300 billion.

• A U.S. commitment not to interfere in Iran’s internal affairs and to respect the sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

• Full lifting of the naval blockade within 30 days.

• A U.S. commitment to withdraw its forces from areas surrounding Iran.

• Reopening of the Strait of Hormuz within 30 days under arrangements determined by Iran.

• Suspension of sanctions on the sale of oil, petrochemical products, and related derivatives, along with full Iranian access to the resulting financial revenues.

• A 60-day negotiation period aimed at reaching a final agreement covering nuclear issues and the complete removal of U.S. primary and secondary sanctions, as well as the repeal of relevant resolutions of the UN Security Council and the IAEA Board of Governors.

• Reaffirmation by Iran of its commitment under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) not to produce nuclear weapons.

• During the negotiation period, the United States would commit not to deploy additional forces to the region and not to impose any new sanctions.

• The release of $24 billion in frozen Iranian assets during the 60-day final negotiation period. Half of this amount must be made available to Iran before negotiations begin.

• Establishment of a monitoring mechanism to oversee implementation of the agreement.

• The final agreement would be approved through a UN Security Council resolution.

• Final negotiations would not begin before the release of half of Iran’s frozen assets, the suspension of oil sanctions, and the lifting of the naval blockade.

• The final agreement would focus exclusively on the future of enriched nuclear material and uranium enrichment, sanctions relief, and a program for rebuilding Iran’s economy. Discussion of Iran’s missile program and its support for resistance groups would be definitively excluded from the agenda.

@Polymarket I’m surprised he didn’t put his face on one of them.

Trump reportedly said about Netanyahu, per Axios:

"You're fucking crazy. You'd be in prison if it weren't for me. I'm saving your ass. Everybody hates you now. Everybody hates Israel because of this."

🚨BREAKING: A cognitive scientist from MIT has mathematically proven that evolution guarantees we see zero percent of true reality, that most consciousness in the universe exists without a body, and that non-human intelligences with a wider window on reality than ours can reach in and manipulate it the way a programmer manipulates a video game.

Donald Hoffman (@donalddhoffman) is a cognitive scientist at UC Irvine who has spent 40 years building a mathematical theory of the observer. His work was cited by John Wheeler in the "It From Bit" paper. He studied under Marvin Minsky at MIT, spent two decades secretly meeting with Francis Crick to study consciousness, and has nine specific mathematical conjectures on the table that would derive general relativity, quantum field theory and the Big Bang from a single framework. The top high-energy physicists in the world, Nima Arkani-Hamed and Nobel laureate David Gross, are already saying spacetime is doomed. Hoffman thinks he knows what replaces it.

This interview is the first time he has publicly laid out what his mathematical model explains about alien life, embodiment and the structure of reality.

It already derives time dilation and quantum wave functions directly from differences in observer window size. Physics has spent a century failing to solve the measurement problem because it has been looking in the wrong place. The observer has to come first, and no physicalist framework can get you there.

A consciousness with a larger observer window has access to the underlying structure of our reality in ways we can't perceive or counter. A craft going Mach 40 instantaneously in our headset could be a leisurely maneuver in theirs.

The implications for UAP and alien life are immense.
Embodiment, being locked into a body with fingers and toes as your only interface with the world, is a probability zero anomaly in the full space of possible minds. He also says current large language models are dumber than cucumbers. His new framework, the recursive trace logic, is a completely different architecture, and some of the biggest names in frontier AI have already come to him about it.

The framework has no ceiling, and the implication is a single unified consciousness exploring itself through an unbounded number of perspectives, each one capable of waking up.

Death, in this framework, is just the closing of an icon on the desktop.

Full conversation is live now.

Brutal statement from Iran’s state-aligned Fars News: “It should be noted that American officials have acknowledged in multiple messages to Iran that Trump's tweets are primarily for promotional purposes and media consumption within the United States, and they have recommended that no attention be paid to these statements.”

SHOCK IMAGE: A suspected hantavirus patient is photographed being evacuated from the stricken MV Hondius cruise ship in full head-to-toe protective gear on a gurney.

Three people — including two who are seriously ill — were removed from the ship, which is anchored off Cape Verde, so they can receive medical care in the Netherlands amid the deadly outbreak, according to the World Health Organization.

Hantavirus is a rare but potentially fatal virus that typically spreads to humans through contact with infected rodents, especially through their urine, droppings, or saliva.

Human-to-human transmission is considered extremely uncommon and has only been documented in limited strains of the virus, making reports of possible person-to-person spread especially alarming and unusual.

@MeidasTouch Maybe you can shed more light on this.

Here’s a list of journalist Israel has murdered in the past 1,000 days.
