I have set up a Kofi to give our community the ability to send tips and encouragement as I await YouTube monetization. This is not a requirement; it is completely optional and will come with some extra goodies if you feel so inclined. Thank you.

James Garner married Lois Clarke just 14 days after meeting her. He said it was love at first sight, hit him like a thunderbolt. Despite friends calling them crazy at the time, they stayed married for 58 years up until his death.
In a sample size of 175,000, a significant baseline percentage are acutely vulnerable. When you inject diagnostic failure into that sample and health profile, the probability that no deaths occurred as a downstream consequence is 0. Theranos killed people. Likely quite a few.
Billy Evans and Elizabeth Holmes are lying sociopaths. I'm now convinced the filmmakers are as well, Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim. There is only one true thing in You Can See Everything:
As far as this film is concerned, nothing but $10 million fake Elizabeth Holmes victim excuse. Nobody told the truth in this film and it's not worth your time. I don't know how managed grabbed the narrative they got, but it's bullshit!
Holy smokes not only did Travis Knight's animated film have a 400+ million budget, some insiders claim it was over 700 million. Madness! worldofreel.com/blog/2026/10…
Terminal List gained a massive following because it was cynical about the state. Top brass, politicians, and corporations would readily sacrifice troops for their own agendas. By shifting toward high-level international cheerleading, the show lost its edge that made it stand out.
Terminal List S 1 worked because it fixed the book's biggest flaw, thin wooden characterization and giving the story nuance and momentum. Looks like S2 fell into the "prestige TV bloat" trap where brooding trauma, atmosphere, & sprawling subplots take precedence over narrative.
The show swaps out the raw, psychological weight of that true believer quote setting the atmosphere of the season for boring buddy training montages in the desert. We get How Reece Got His Groove Back bullshit Hollywood garbage.
A domestic journalist and an off-grid civilian easily uncover a massive, rogue black-market weapons network across Europe while the entire FBI and CIA remain completely blind to it. Makes the global agencies look utterly incompetent and kills the realism. Terminal List S2.
What went wrong? The Terminal List writing team explicitly set out to transition the show from a fast-paced psychological action thriller into a sprawling, slow-burn global espionage mystery with a 10 YEAR PLAN. Shit writing like this won't last another season.
Terminal List S2 has the most lethal, tactical thinking operator in the world walk in front of a security camera without his balaclava? Crap writing, bloated and distracted. The stupid Voltstream subplot with beta cuck editor and girlboss reporter is 💩. Unwatchable trash.
A major point of True Believer is Reece’s absolute isolation. He has no safety net &bno brothers in arms. Giving Raife his own action subplot robs the story of Reece’s desperate loneliness and divides screen time between two completely different tones. No bueno.
Terminal List S2 absolutely strips the soul out of the Africa chapter. In Jack Carr's True Believer, the Mozambique segment is a gripping, tactical transition where Reece essentially undergoes a warrior's rebirth, but the show turns it into a generic, low energy waiting room.
You're not gonna see any of the media issue a retraction or a clarification.
So it turns out that Ukraine's issues with Starlink were caused by Ukraine.
Starlink terminals disconnected at speeds above 160 KPH, as determined by the Starlink terminals internal GPS.
To get around this, Ukraine hacked the Starlink terminals to think they were stationary regardless of speed.
SpaceX figured this out, and updated the system software to detect excessive speed by seeing how rapidly the terminal switched from on satellite to another. This broke Ukraine's hack, and Starlink would no longer work at high speeds.
Ukraine was using Starlink in a way that violated the terms of service.
Starlink figured it out and stopped it.
I don't believe any of this. That's not the game that this company would've made.
I can finally talk about Mass Effect Universe.
Since Bioware closed I can now reveal that I was part of the Mass Effect Council, saw what BioWare was building, and provided feedback during development.
• Set 600+ years after the Reaper War
• You play as a customizable N7 agent
• Instead of being a walking gun rack, you're a cross between John Wick and James Bond
• Shepard's legacy preserved, regardless of your ending
• A galaxy divided into three major factions
• Humanity, Krogan, Batarians, and more allied together
• Council races forming their own alliance
• The Geth emerging as a third superpower
• A galactic Cold War instead of another Reaper style invasion with a shadowy adversary
• Geth-built megastructures
• Connections between the Milky Way and Andromeda
• Experimental technology implanted in you as a unique point of difference
• Hacking and manipulating the environment
• See through walls, identify systems, remotely trigger hazards and more
• Handcrafted missions like ME1-3
• But with Hitman-style freedom in how you complete them
• Brutal close-range executions
• Squadmates who can clash with each other
• Romance wasn't being sanitised
• Liara returns - now an incredibly powerful Asari Matriarch
From what I saw, BioWare was making Mass Effect for us, the fans, not for people who don't exist.
It looked incredible.
And now we may never get to play it.
