1) 💥THREAD ON ANTONY GREEN💥

Antony “Deep State” Green ...

... is very famous in Australia.

👉

Yesterday, as at 08:00am-09:00am, I left the residence of a family member and something pathetic happened when I was about getting home.
I was on a street closer to the junction when I suddenly heard a heavy sound. I ran towards the junction in few seconds and saw people...

gathered around a MAN. He just had an accident.

This man, who looks in his early, mid or late forties is soaked in blood. His right eyeball is almost entirely out of its SEAT, his nose isn't clearly seen because thick blood had drenched it, half his head was full of blood...

& more kept gushing off his head towards the ground. This MAN'S left leg has broken and his wrist crushed and was bruised too.
When I got to this place, over 60-100 humans gathered around him and began pitying him. The MAN roared, "please, I need water, I need water, I'm dying"..

Blood kept gushing off his head.
The statement he made echoed into me when I got there. I ran Helter skelter in search of water and luckily I got. I was about fetching it when those who I met gathering around the man shouted, "NOBODY should give him water, it's dangerous for...

...him." I dropped the bowl, I was perplexed!
I ran towards him, now, he's soaked in blood, the ground was well soaked too. The MAN began, "I'm dying, someone should please help me, I'm dying, don't watch me please, please, this is, please..."
I didn't make him finish his mixed..

Nov 3rd was Election Day. There were 28 days left in the month.

Dec 17th is this coming Thursday.

28 days + "17" days = "45" days.

I'm sure it's just another coincidence.

When does it become mathematically impossible?

Who was 28th POTUS?

Why is it relevant?

(continued)...

Many years back I never liked you, pre 2015, I started seeing the hope in your candidacy knowing fully well that you'll someday make us proud as a nation. You came with the hope mantra, the larger populace joined your train and the mandate was delivered, but because our.../1

... value system had been bastardized, the yarn for quick gain syndrome which the jackals and hyenas of yesteryears had planted in us made many loose the hope for a good change. We who still believed in you fought to give you a second chance, though many still got weary./2

They want a magic, but you're just a retired General and a lover of common man and a better country. You aren't a magician like the thought you'll be, you eschew freebies but embrace hard work. You never craved for luxury, you live within your mean and encourage other to do so./3

They hate sound judgment and dislike been checked, they tried to truncate and topple your government through hate and lies. They have people from all works of life and profession in their coven, but the Patriots are solidly behind you, we know you have your own shortcomings.../4

... but won't let them burn down our Fatherland with their shenanigans. They employed foreign bodies but we silenced them with truth and oneness. You promote gallantry in our soldiering and give us hope of a better nation.
You deserve our respect and honor Mr President. /5

Must agree with David Lammy.

Winston Churchill was indeed a great champion of human rights *

People upset with Lammy have not seen what wonderful shade he has cast on the Tories. 'Winston Churchill emerges among you lot as the greatest defender of human rights--the winner of the Extremely Low Bar Award.'

This guy says he followed a firetruck into the WTC area before the 2nd tower b0mb detonated.
Says it was like someone hit the mute button on the normal hubbub of the city, it was so quiet with nobody around
Before the 1st tower pulled he was lifted into air!

HOW ASUU IS DOING THEMSELVES THINKING THEY’RE DOING ME .....🤓🤓
A thread.....

Being a student of a public university,I’m also partaking in the ongoing compulsory sit at home directive given by ASUU.

The last time I entered a lecture hall was in December 2019 (after my 2nd mbbs exam), I hope I’ll be able to differentiate spleen from pancreas when school resumes.😂

So like most affected student, I didn’t want to stay idle doing nothing at home (the errands you’ll run,it’s preferable you get a job sef),

I got a job and was saving the earnings I was getting from there. But from a lot of books I’ve read, I’ve realized saving in banks

I talk with people I respect and wish to learn from.

I engage in discussion not to prove that I am right, but to test ideas and be open to learning how I may be wrong. Ideas are put through the crucible, refined, clarified, discarded.

Democracy was built on debate.

1/

I try my best to be collegial, but also to appear to be. Twitter format doesn't always make it easy, and sometimes I fall short.

I sometimes worry that we are losing the art of discussion.

2 /

I think to our predecessors who without technology, would exchange and debate ideas across vast distances with lengthy, meticulously handwritten letters.

The act of forging ideas this way likely forced a thoughtfulness...

3 /

The cost of waiting a month for a reply only to have your idea misunderstood or easily refuted is quite high; this placed a premium on critical thinking - best to make your point well the first time.

It's easy to see how cordialities became so common in those eras.

4 /

Best not affront your pen pal after you spent several days composing your thoughts and weeks waiting to hear back.

Great ideas were forged this way. The enlightenment.

Twitter's format does influence how we communicate, how we think, and how we perceive each other.

I have moved houses a couple of times in the past 8 years that I have been married but this is the first time I am doing a big move from one city to another with all my house stuff after the kids were born (thread)

Didn't think it'd be so hard coz we don't even have much stuff. we lived in a furnished house in the first 5 years and then kids happened and furniture was unnecessary coz if you have kids you know that they think furniture is for doing everything except sitting and relaxing

So we don't have beds (kids will fall down), no TV (kids will likely break it), no chest of drawers (had one, kids open and shut it so many times, it broke), no study table/work desk (lol, kitchen sink and dining table is only study table)

We also never bought any toys for the kids because again if you have kids, you know how useless toys are. The kids have played more with our furniture and our utensils than any of the expensive toys they were gifted with
(BUT ALWAYS HAVE 200 TYPES OF BALLS AND CARS)

Even clothes we don't have much because the kids outgrow stuff so fast, we keep donating clothes and husband works from home and has been wearing the same shorts and t-shirt since the day we got married and I have some 15-20 kurtas/leggings which I have been wearing for years

This is going to be a thread about the annual #footbag Christmas Calendar, the Joulukalenteri. It is annual tradition going back more than a decade.

#footbag players from around the world submit their video to a main organiser. This year there was a lot of focus on different tutorials as it has been quite a different year for everyone. #hackysack

Day 1 we were in Colombia with "Don Gui", awesome countryside and drone shots. #footbag #hackysack

Day 2 we are learning about Barfly from Dante himself -

Day 3 - The first of a series of doubles tutorials from @freestyle_smile and Sergio Garcia in Spain. #footbag #hackysack

At times it is good to review the Declaration of Independence. When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth

@spyrosmakrid and his team listen to the community's feedback and offer, within a window of three years, two fantastic, insightful and impactful forecasting competitions, the M4 and M5. I am tired with all the "sceptics" that try to dismiss the competitions' results.
1/8

First, the ongoing discussion on error measures. It seems that everyone in the forecasting community has devised their own measures, and if someone is using another one then s/he is doomed. The real question is: does the chosen error measure fit the purpose of the exercise?
2/8

Second, the disbelief on the results especially from people that did not participate in the competitions. I have said that before, but skin in the game is important in forecasting (if you want to call your self a forecaster).
3/8

The fact that a method won a competition does not mean that it will win all future competitions. But, there are important lessons to be learnt. In the case of M3 and Theta: the value of information decomposition. In the case of M4 & M5: the value of cross-learning.
4/8

Such insights should be taken into account when designing future methods and algorithms. Since 2000, I have seen many new implementations of the Theta method that have improved on the original proposition. The same will surely be the case with the top methods of M4 & M5.
5/8

Dearest John,
I went to the door today and the postman delivered a partridge in a pear tree. What a delightful gift. I couldn't have been more surprised.
With dearest love and affection, Agnes

December 15th

Dearest John,
Today the postman brought your very sweet gift. Just imagine, two turtle doves.... I'm just delighted at your very thoughtful gift. They are just adorable.
All my love, Agnes

December 16th

Dear John,
Oh, aren't you the extravagant one! Now I must protest. I don't deserve such generosity. Three French hens. They are just darling but I must insist.... you're just too kind.
Love Agnes

December 17th

Today the postman delivered four calling birds. Now really! They are beautiful, but don't you think enough is enough? You're being too romantic.
Affectionately, Agnes

December 18th

Dearest John,
What a surprise! Today the postman delivered five golden rings. One for each finger. You're just impossible, but I love it. Frankly, John, all those squawking birds were beginning to get on my nerves.
All my love, Agnes

@ADuvsLife He's ignoring everything, essentially. In the short-term, we're already seeing delays at the ports, which has a very basic impact on getting stuff into distribution centres in the first place. Every DC has a limited number of loading bays for in & outbound ...

Trucks have defined delivery slots for drop-offs and pick-ups - think of it like a doctor's appointment list - they must be there in their 30-60 minute window, or else the haulier gets fined. And DCs operate 24/7. So if 10 trucks miss their slots because of a logjam at the ports

It's not just a case of squeezing them into another window - there *is* no spare slot (or hardly any). So you can't easily catch up. And once a delivery slot at the DC is missed, that has a knock-effect. A missed inbound delivery means outbound trucks leave without their stock

And stores don't receive their orders (which are placed on a just-in-time basis anyway - your average Tesco actually has a very small warehouse space, as almost all of its stock goes straight to shelves)

Now Tesco can mitigate this for tinned/dry food by forward-ordering stockpiles, but this is a squeeze to fit extra delivery trucks in, and there's only so much extra space in their DCs, so they can only forward-buy so much

The real Xmas miracle is thinking Katherine Murphy is one of the nation’s best political writers, and that The Guardian is left-wing.
She’s not.
It’s not.
Confusing #ScottyFromHillsong with the PM shows how effectively the PMO spins stuff to the Gallery.

Like her colleagues on #Insiders, Murphy laps up the spin and regurgitates it as her special sauce insight.

It’s not insightful, it’s just stenographic repetition of a failing ideology.
It starts from the false premise that our game of mates system is a democracy.
It’s not.

Journalists love to separate base and superstructure as if the political sphere operates independently from the economy.
It doesn’t.
Capitalism requires a veneer of political democracy built on commodity fetishism to mask the economic inequality that is endemic.
Gallery is blind

to this glaring contradiction because they buy into the systemic lie that a formal equality of opportunity exists and that through application of the Protestant work ethic anybody can become a member of the wealthy elite.
They can’t.
Class inequalities are an essential feature

of capitalism and papering them over with idealist gibberish about democracy just perpetuates class divisions.
Journalists don’t see it because they are incapable of critical, independent, materialist analysis.
They cling to the Fourth Estate delusion of objectivity and balance

1/
May 12, 2020, is when about 1/2 million Orthodox Jews, said enough is enough.

It was Lag Baomer, the day we celebrate Rav Shimon bar Yochai (Rashbi).

It's been said on him in the Talmud so many unbelievable statements.

2/
”The WHOLE WORLD can be saved on his merit”

"Rabbi Shimon should be trusted in times of distress"

He was the holiest of holy, his Kabbalistic teachings, are the only Jewish teachings, that is been studied around the world, I always wondered why.

3)
May 12 came, and we saw what was happening.

Our kids were starting to go crazy.

We couldn't do this anymore!

His day was the day we did it!

There were bonfires all over NY and NJ...

With crowds of thousands dancing and singing in honor of Rashbi.

4/

We all felt like doing it for Rashbi, we are in good hands.

And nothing happened!

No one got sick.

People started coming out of their holes.

It was working, so why not do it?!

And now I believe the world is ready to move on!

5/

I believe 1/2 million humans, for 7 months challenges Covid from the ground up; in a capacity where it's impossible to deny the facts.

We thoroughly challenged the masks, social distancing, dining, capacity, schools, and everything that goes along with it.
