Let’s see if a hike could open SOH or produce a single barrel :)
You can’t 25bp a chokepoint and r* isn’t neutral. It’s SOH risk premium, and We set it.

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.
We condemn Iran for the 2 wars forced upon it since 2025, and we condemn the evil Islamic Republic for placing weddings, elementary schools, hospitals, power plants, sports centers, bridges, and apartment blocks directly in the path of Trump and Netanyahu's missiles.
I almost never share my dreams, but today I’ll make an exception.
Throughout my life, even when I dreamt of Palestine, there were always Israeli soldiers in the background because those were the images I’ve grown up with.
Then a month ago, I dreamt that my father was showing my family around our village in Tulkarem, where he was born before the occupation. He was showing us his trees and crops with such joy and nostalgia that my words could never capture. But the most beautiful part of the dream was what wasn’t there. No soldiers or settlers.
Then last night, I had another beautiful dream about Palestine. And for the first time in my life, I dreamt of Al-Aqsa itself without soldiers in the background.
I don’t know what this means for me personally, though I have my prayers of what I hope to see in my own lifetime. I also don’t claim to be a pious person sharing these dreams as some sort of new prophecy. I don’t need a dream to tell me how this story ends. While I long to pray in that Masjid one day and pick olives from the trees that generations of my family cared for before the colonizers came, I already fully believe with certainty that Palestine will be freed one day InshaAllah.
But amid devastation so overwhelming that can pull the heart to despair, these dreams profoundly warmed mine. And so I chose to share them, praying that anyone else who has grown up carrying this trauma might find some solace in them, while also recognizing that those who have lived beneath the occupation have endured its pain and cruelty in ways the rest of us can never fully comprehend.

Did Israeli newspaper Ma'ariv report that Benjamin Netanyahu told an audience that the 9/11 attacks were beneficial for Israel?
Answer yes or no.
I used to think Bush was the dumbest, most ineloquent politician of all and watching this split screen even he actually sounds eloquent and smart compared to the carnival barker we currently have in the Oval Office. Imagine being so dumb and illiterate you make Dubya look good!
If you or I say the Israeli prime minister ‘influences’ American politicians to get them to think his way and fight his wars, it’s antisemitic. But if the Israeli prime minister says it…
RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat says, “If any Hindu thinks that there should be no Muslim in Bharat, he will not remain Hindu.”
This is the oldest trick in the RSS playbook: some words are for the world, and some are for its own members. The RSS has never disavowed its key thinkers and writers. What do they say about Muslims and other minorities?
1. It is well known that the RSS did not contribute to our freedom struggle. Its founder, Hedgewar, was in the Indian National Congress but left it because he was against all religious communities joining the anti-British freedom struggle led by Gandhi. A biography of Hedgewar published by the RSS describes how he parted with the INC because “Gandhiji worked constantly with one eye on Hindu–Muslim unity… But Doctorji sensed danger in that move. In fact, he did not even relish the newfangled slogan of ‘Hindu–Muslim Unity’.” [Seshadri, H. V. (ed.), Dr. Hedgewar, the Epoch-Maker: A Biography, Sahitya Sindhu, Bangalore, 1981, p. 61.]
2. The RSS opposes democracy and has consistently demanded a dictatorship. Golwalkar, in 1940, declared, “RSS inspired by one flag [saffron], one leader and one ideology.” [M. S. Golwalkar, Shri Guruji Samagra Darshan (collected works of Golwalkar in Hindi), Bhartiya Vichar Sadhna, Nagpur, n.d., Volume I, p. 11.]
3. Should we forget what happened to the Muslims of Gujarat under the RSS’s proxy rule? “Daughters were gang-raped in front of their fathers and then had their heads bashed in. Their fathers were doused with petrol and set on fire. Their property was looted. Their businesses were destroyed. And the police stood by and did nothing.” [Hindustan Times, New Delhi, March 21, 2002.]
4. For the RSS, Indian Muslims and Christians are ‘internal threats’ number one and two, respectively.
5. Golwalkar’s Bunch of Thoughts has a long chapter titled ‘Internal Threats’, in which Muslim and Christian citizens of India are described as threats number one and two, respectively. Golwalkar says that Muslim citizens should be treated with perpetual suspicion.
6. Of Christians, Golwalkar says that the community is “out to demolish not only the religious and social fabric of our life”. [Ibid., p. 193.]
7. It is under the RSS’s ideology that Muslims are being subjected to Hindu law in the name of the UCC. Christians are being targeted in the name of draconian “anti-conversion” laws. Not to forget the severe abuse of laws such as the UAPA.
My request to Bhagwat is that he should just recite choice extracts from the poisonous works of Savarkar, Hedgewar, Golwalkar, etc. Let people decide what they make of the RSS.
A child attending his first live concert was invited on stage by British rock band IDLES in Belfast, Ireland. When he was asked to say one thing to the crowd, he shouted, “Free Free Palestine”

Bangladesh can bring 2 GAME-CHANGING things to the Makkah Defence Pact!
For SAUDI: The 4th Chokepoint
Right now the 3 Brothers … KSA, Pakistan and Turkey … already hold the world by the throat.
- Saudis sit on the Red Sea. They watch the gates to the Suez Canal and Bab el Mandeb.
- Pakistan stands at the mouth of Hormuz. From Balochistan, they can shut it down with missiles and navy.
- Turkey controls Europe’s trade and the Bosphorus Strait.
But there’s ONE more artery the world bleeds from … The Strait of Malacca.
Saudi oil, global trade, all of it passes there.
If Bangladesh joins... the 3 Brothers now have their hands on the Bay of Bengal and Malacca too.
4 chokepoints. One alliance. The map changes forever.
For PAKISTAN: The 2-Front Nightmare
Yes, Pakistan can already hit India with long-range missiles.
But with Bangladesh in the pact? Fateh series … short and medium-range missiles … can be deployed in Dhaka
Now India faces Pakistani missiles from WEST...
And Pakistani Missiles from EAST
Two directions. No escape. No breathing room.
For BANGLADESH: The Shield
Nuclear Umbrella.
Guarantee of Territorial Integrity.
No more bullying. No more threats.
You join the brothers... you get the wall.
Bangladesh has prepared a draft agreement to purchase Chinese J-10CE fighter jets, citing their reported success against Indian Rafales and lower cost compared with the Rafale and Eurofighter Typhoon, Prime Minister’s Adviser Jahid Ur Rahman said today.
The U.S. is the richest and most advanced nation on earth.
We are spending huge amounts on AI to bomb Iran and destroy infrastructure.
Yet after nearly 2 weeks, we can't restore electricity to Gary, IN, a low-income Black city?
Unacceptable. Let’s get our priorities straight.
What in the world @Google?
Haven’t you learned your lesson from how terrible your search was on Islam? Now your AI is just casually being Islamophobic?
Try this yourself and tag google with your results.
“I don’t want Jews in positions of elected office and I don’t want Jews having financial ties to the Democratic Party. I don’t like Judaism. If I could wave a magic wand, I would round up Jews and deport them from America. Most Democratic voters agree with me.”
I don’t want to sound like a broken record on this but can you imagine if a top adviser to, and ally of, President Joe Biden had said this? It would be the *only* story in America. For days and weeks on end. Biden and Dem members of Congress would be asked about nothing else by rightly outraged reporters.
So every American political reporter, editor, anchor, executive producer, reading this right now: ask yourself, why aren’t you as outraged when it’s Muslims not Jews, and Trump’s ally not Biden’s?
I was questioned by the Department of Homeland Security yesterday upon returning from Lebanon.
They asked me about 1 thing.
Why I posted negative things about Israeli Minister Ben Gvir.
I am a born American who lives in the United States, and they stopped me at the airport for an Israeli politician.
I’m serious.
Dear Polish MEP,
Before lecturing Iran while cheering for Trump, remember your own history.
During WWII, when Poland was fighting for survival and thousands of Polish Jews had nowhere to go, much of the world turned its back. But Iran despite suffering famine and foreign occupation itself opened its doors to over 116,000 Polish refugees, including thousands of Polish Jews, giving them shelter, food, schools, safety, and dignity.
Before judging Iran, remember who stood by your people when they needed it most.
History shouldn't be so easily forgotten.
