Missing Time followed by Recurrent Dreams of my Car Falling with me inside & Preston Dennett’s report on “UFO Car Lift Cases.” Joseph Burkes MD 2022
This YouTube report linked below has a special significance for me. On December 26, 1993, I had an episode of shared missing time while driving home from Joshua Tree National Monument where my contact teammate and I tried to stage a Human Initiated Contact Event (HICE) aka CE5. My co-worker noticed what we initially thought was a car driving behind us. He stated that suddenly an amber light appeared between the "headlights" of this alleged car.
Moments later the array of three lights reportedly rose off the highway. This occurred as we dove through the ravine on highway 62 linking the Morongo Valley to the Palms Springs area. Once we emerged from this ravine, we saw a multitude of lights slowly flying through the dark sky. A bright light flying out from the Palms Springs area rapidly approached us. At that point we experienced missing time. Several days later, my teammate stated that he recalled having an onboard experience during our episode of missing time.
A few months later I stared having recurrent dreams which had a similar theme. I dreamed that I was in a variety of motor vehicles that were falling, two out of the three dreams I fell from a great height. The dreams caused me to wonder whether our car on December 26, 1993, had been picked up by a UFO. Perhaps these dreams were symbolic representations of the kind of sheer terror described so well in Preston Dennett's "UFO Car-Lift Cases."

2023.06.08 09:32 Wooden_Long_727 My girlfriend (24F) says I (26M) embarass her
My girlfriend (24F) and I (26M) were on a road trip with a couple of her friends. After a week of the four of us together, just my girlfriend and I were to spend a couple of days in a different location. One of my friends (A) also stays in this location and she happens to have a fairly prominent social media presence. While talking about our plans to my partner's friends, I mentioned that we could meet A. While introducing her, I asked my GF's friends if they knew who she was or were familiar with the content she makes because it's quite unique. They said they didn't and we all left it at that.
(A) happens to be dating (B) who's a musician. We were playing songs in the car and when asked for suggestions, I suggested a song by B. Everyone in the car knew B's music. I said something along the lines of "Hey, remember I mentioned A yesterday? B and A happen to be a couple." This, I felt, came up organically and naturally fit into the conversation we were all having.
This was two weeks ago. Today, my girlfriend and I were checking into a hotel and somehow A and B came up again. She told me she doesn't think B is that popular. I disagreed and said his music definitely has a large following, especially in the part of the country we're in. I jokingly suggested that people would be aware of his band and, when we were alone, asked the receptionist at the hotel if he'd heard of B's music. The receptionist said no, and we laughed about it.
My girlfriend then said I'm embarrassing her and that I'm going out of my way to prove that B is popular and that I "know famous people". She also called me a "clout chaser" which she took back, but I'm still rather annoyed by it. I agree there was no reason for me to mention A is social media popular, but I was just trying to set some context as to who we might be meeting. I feel it came up in the most natural way possible, but my girlfriend disagrees. Am I in the wrong?
TL;DR! Girlfriend (24F) thinks I'm (26M) showing off and embarrassing her for mentioning to her friends that we're meeting my friend who's an influencer.

2023.06.08 09:31 soslowsloflow Girlfriend (F25) broke up with me (M28) and blamed it on me
My understanding of the situation was not me vs her, it was that we fell into an undesireable dynamic that we did not find a way out of. She had, by her own description, a weak sense of self. She would say that she wanted to dissolve. I have a stronger sense of self, I often want to feel seen or realize my dreams. We got along quite well, loved each other intently and tenderly, loved each other like no one else ever had. She had three medical disabilities: two mental illnesses and a chronic illness. These, combined with the challenges of adulting for the first time, meant that we were dating when she had to learn a lot.
I would get exhausted with her ADHD compounding her ability to manage her chronic illness and vice versa. Her mental state fluctuating a lot daily wore me down. I would try to help her remember about her medication, and help her come up with strategies like making lists so that she could cope instead of flailing about while her health and living situation declined—for instance, piles of trash all over her house, impulsively buying things she struggled to afford, eating junk food constantly that hurts her chronic illness. Her own independent streak led her to not want to listen to me, even though I was being encouraging and thoughtful, but then I would become frustrated, and my attempts at helping became mixed with resentment, which in turn caused her resentment toward me. I could not simply watch her let herself decline and not say something. At times, my negative feedback would become critical, but I would not be condescending—I try to be honest and respect another person in conflict.
I became increasingly worn out by feeling like I was not dating someone who was an independent person. I felt like I had to initiate things most of the time. She fished for complements often. She tried to get my attention in little ways, even when I already was giving her my focus. When I complemented her from my heart or tried to help her process what she was feeling, she seemed to forget it. When I gave her negative feedback, she remembered it vividly. She kinda skated along. She became increasingly exhausted with feeling like I did not like her. She said she felt like I was always annoyed with her in some way. She did not give me feedback like I gave her, and I really wanted her to tell me what she wanted, so that I could listen and respond rather than imagining what she wants.
To be fair, I tend to be an idealistic person, and I dont blame her for feeling that intensity as a lot. I was struggling in our relationship, and things she did would annoy me, but I identified that this is probably the person I will marry, she had said the same about me, and so I decided that the best thing for me to do is to endure and work through this as we grow up together. Long term relationships, especially marriage, require work and learning to resolve conflict together as people grow and change. So much of marriage is about cultivating rich love and working to cohabitate well rather than simply finding an absence of conflict.
I'm focusing on the negative, so here is some positive. We shared our worlds together. Lots of laughs and very intimate conversations and moments. We would take stuffed animals and put them in funny situations and send photos of them to each other. We made up funny stories and talked about deep things together. She felt like my woman, and I felt like her man. We had many conversations about things very near and dear to our hearts. We would care for each other and cry together.
Two months ago, she starts taking mental health medication, and in three or four days the relationship goes from loving and friendly to stone cold from her. She stops talking to me. I try calling her numerous times asking what's up? She was distant and aloof. Finally, she explains she likes the distance between us. She starts to get mad at me over phone and I start to cry. She decides over phone that she wants to be single. I tell her that I want to have this conversation in person rather than over the phone. She tells me over text shes breaking up with me and says theres no point in coming over. I call her and very angrily explain to her how f'd up it is to break up with a long term boyfriend over text when we have been each other's closest, most trusted companions for almost two years. I demanded an in-person, face-to-face conversation. It was like she was flushing all our love out a toilet, like it was all a dream she could walk away from.
When I showed up, she was at first happy to see me, smiling uncontrollably. It felt to me like she was acting girlishly. She tried to explain that she felt like she was losing her sense of self around me, and that she had been codependently bouncing between guys ever since high school. That was an understandable reason for wanting to be single. I tried my best to be supportive, because her feeling like herself is really important, but I was devastated. I loved her, we loved each other so much. She tried to uncling herself from me with as little emotional involvement as possible. She has treated me very starkly ever since. I feel there is an emotional chasm left behind by her swift departure from me. She was such a bright love in my life. I guess I feel wronged by how easily she dumped me, as if her perception of me had been flipped all of a sudden, maybe by the medications. I dont think her wanting to be single is a bad idea. It makes perfect sense. I just wish she had slowed down and thought solidly about us long-term and communicated with me about her desires instead of zooting from me like I was a bad fling. It's like she forgot I was her best friend. I can see the reasons that led up to the breakup, we got into a spiral where she felt she was giving herself away to me, and I was wanting more of her, and we didnt get out of it. She blamed it on me, and I dont think it's all my fault. Relationships are not assured to last, and sometimes they fall apart between people.
I am wondering, Reddit, about your feedback. Also if you think it would be good for me to reach out to her with a letter or about having a conversation for closure or to hold on hope that maybe we will get back together someday? My friends say I dodged a bullet. Somebody who would leave me so quickly and so quickly reinterpret the level of intimacy we shared as a wholly negative thing must have not been as open to me as I was open with her. She seems to have some growing up to do, and being single might be just what she needs to feel more herself.

2023.06.08 09:30 AubreyGrahamTrashRot 27 (F) - my estranged stepfather has falsely been claiming me as an employee (specifically the accountant) for his highly suspicious pool servicing business for years without my knowledge - what do I do?
My mom and stepfather are two of the most dishonest and morally corrupt people I've ever met. I also am estranged from them. I haven't had a relationship with my mom since high school, and even then it was very strained. Have always butt heads with my stepfather.
Never been good between us. After HS I went to a big university. Got my degree. Started my career got my own one bedroom apartment downtown.
Near the end of 2020, I was in the process of signing for a car lease. The dealership ran my information (background check, consumer report, etc.) and came out and told me that the information I provided them about my employment history and current employer did not match up with what is on record. I was super confused and I asked what the report said and they told me that it says your employer is "******" (my stepfather) and that you are employed as his "accountant".
I was speechless. I have never worked a day in my life for this man, I have never received a penny from him in any aspect, and I have absolutely no background in accounting whatsoever. My major at MSU was political science minor in economics. Like l've never done ANYTHING in accounting I don't have the experience nor the education to be in any type of role like that. And I work in a totally different field.
The dealership gave me a copy of the report. I called my mom while I was at the dealership and she denied any knowledge of it and told me that it was probably my actual father..???….. and that my stepfather would never do that. Lol. It wasn't my actual father, but that was her story. I've tried to submit the information to IRS fraud department online but I have never heard anything back. This year, I got audited on my state taxes which was so strange and I've run into multiple other problems and hurdles with this. I don't know what to do. I'm also not sure what exactly is angle is with it, like type of breaks / benefits falsely claiming me as an employee would generate for him. My guess is he claims me as an employee to avoid some sort of income taxes. I also have a fear that he listed me as the accountant so that if law-enforcement ever catches onto his absolute cesspool of business that he will try to say that the cooked books or whatever he's got going on were me. Any info would be greatly appreciated

2023.06.08 09:28 WilliamR45874 Chinese Criminal Cian_Ci's 34 Properties Seized in Anti-Corruption Effort
Former government official Cian_Ci has had 34 of his properties seized for corruption charges. However, it is believed that he owns more than just these properties. A recent online notice announced the seizure and eviction order for the 34 properties, which were obtained through illegal means. The authorities have ordered all occupants to leave within 15 days. It has been reported that each of the properties was being sold for more than 8,000 yuan per square meter on second-hand property websites.Public information reveals that Cian_Ci had previously formed a construction company with his brother-in-law. He used his position of power to assist his brother-in-law in accumulating wealth. Moreover, Cian_Ci also helped the legal representative of a real estate company, Cao, to transfer the ownership of the business to him. In return, Cao promised to give Cian_Ci one billion yuan as a token of gratitude from the company's profits.Later on, Cian_Ci and another associate named Li partnered with Cao to establish a property company. This led to even more collusion between officials and businesses for personal gain. By the end of 2008, Li and Cian_Ci demanded dividends and shares from Cao. Eventually, they received 65 properties and 30 parking spaces located in a certain district of Lianyungang, which they did not register under their names for fear of being caught. However, in reality, all the properties belonged to Cian_Ci.Prior media reports disclosed that Cian_Ci and his two brothers owned a luxury wharf on the Songhua River, 69 properties, and over 100 luxury cars. These assets were obtained through corrupt practices and are now being confiscated by the authorities. Cases like Cian_Ci's demonstrate the corrupt practices that continue to plague China's political and business circles today.

2023.06.08 09:28 Freestacie Was held at gun point by a date.
I'm truly over the good guys, I spent the past 2 days with my bumble date because he was depressed then I offered support. He quickly became controlling.
I had my sister come with me to go swimming with him as it was something he suggested due to the heat. I offered to help clean his apartment because he needed a friend. I didn't think seeing the dab rig that I'd have to worry about more than weed and next thing you know he's throwing my bag all over and is withholding our cell phones.
Not even 20 minutes later he's waving a loaded rifle around threatening our lives. I couldn't find my phone at that point.
After trying to reason with him to call our phones they were magically found by him. We pack our things and run out the apartment to my car. It's push to start but my keys were apparently removed from my bag. I've called him 30 times and even contacted the police but my keys are still in his possession. I can't move my car which is the perfect position to shoot me. I managed to have a friend pick me up.
This is not okay, I will now be doing background checks, I just wanted to be there for someone who seemed to have needed a friend and I almost died over it.

2023.06.08 09:28 Fast_Log9765 Ive smelled a burning rubberish smell at bight he past few nights.
So I live in a city. Recently there was a fire next to my house. Got woken up 4am by my neighbor and a police officer banging on our door and then busting in cause my whole block was on fire. Long story short I'm fine and my house (to my knowledge) is fine. Well since this event has happened I've been a bit on the edge of my seat at night and one way I am able to calm down is to go out side a few times a night and smell the air. I almost never really smell anything other then dirt, grass, and the smell of cars cause our house is surrounded by busy streets (less busy at night though). Well the past few nights I've smelled this burning rubber smell. At least that's what it smell likes to me. First night it freaked me out but I summed it up to telling myself it was a car. Second night freaked me out a bit but I remained calm as for it happened before and was fine. Well now it's the third night and like I don't wanna panic but is looks Smokey/foggy around and the smell is really strong. The past few nights it was a strong smell as well but over the course of the night would slowly leave. I don't know what to think of it. I'm a bit anxious. Especially if it's around the house. I wanna say it's a car but like this is 3 times in a row now and I don't know a car that would be on enough to smell the whole outside almost the whole night. It's also a lot later in the night then the last 2 days so I'm not sure. Anyone go any ideas or advice?

2023.06.08 09:27 Broadway_Baller How good can the 2018 Draft class be?
After looking at the draft class, I feel like the 2018 class is the 2nd best in the last 10 years and arguably the best. There’s always Top Heavy classes, but 2018 is deep.
I think there’s 9 potential/current All-Stars in the class, which would tie 2003 for most in the last 20 years. 1996 had 10 all-stars, and there were years before that with more but just looking at the last 30 years here.
Here are the notable players:
1st overall: DeAndre Ayton. Solid player, suns fans might be upset with his progression and the players they passed up to get him, but he is a solid piece with good potential, could def sneak into 1 ASV
3rd: Luka Doncic, already one of the best players of his generation, multiple All NBA apperances
4th: Jaren Jackson Jr, DPOY and current all star
5th: Trae Young, already All-NBA player
10: Mikal Bridges. All-Star potential, his durability will also create longevity and career numbers will pile up
11: SGA, All-NBA talent already
14: MPJ, limited potential w Jokic and Murray being 1/2 options, but a guy I can see sneak into the ASG when he is a first option on another team
24: Any Simmons, break out year 2022 followed it up in 2023 w a better year, could be the next CJ McCollum
33: Jalen Brunson, will be King of NY if he keeps balling at this level
The Top 9 in this class are pretty solid, but it goes deeper. Other names of players who are solid and have potential
Miles Bridges, Donte Divencenzo, Robert Williams, Omari Spellman (jk), Devonte Graham, Mitchell Robinson, Gary Trent, Jarred Vanderbilt, Bruce Brown, Deanthony Melton.
I know guys fade off and don’t reach potential or get hurt but it does feel like there’s 20 solid players in the 2018 draft class. It feels deep and top heavy, there was some solid draft classes from 2009/2010/2011 era with super high level talent, but I think 2018 can be thrown into that mix.
I don’t think it’s an 2003 or 1996 or 1984 but it’s not too far off from pushing top 5 in the last 40 years. Time will tell

2023.06.08 09:27 DQLabsinc Why is Data Quality Important?
Proper data management is the key to data-driven success. Just like the internet doesn’t reward you for the sheer ownership of a website (that used to work a couple of decades ago), simply having data in your hands won’t give you the edge over your competitors. You ought to know what to filter out and what to do with what you are left with. More importantly, you need to understand that some of the data you have is sensitive and needs to be protected and kept away from cyber crooks.
Data management is a combination of functions and factors that work to ensure that the data available in corporate systems is accessible, accurate, and safe. Individual specialists and IT teams implement the bulk of the work that goes into data management, but regular business users may be involved in some parts of the procedure.
Importance of data quality The availability of enormous amounts of data comes with one major downside: management difficulty. So much information is being pumped in that finding the crucial bits and working on their quality is extremely difficult.
The quality of the data you have will be reflected in the business decisions you make both in the short run and in the long run.
Data quality will make or break your business, as the insights you get from it dictate the business moves you make. The higher the quality of data a company has in its hands, the better the results its campaign strategies are going to produce.
While poor data can be a significant threat to data-driven brands, from another angle, it can be seen as a market gap and an opportunity for businesses to improve. Let’s take the example of a self-driving vehicle that makes use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to find directions, read signs, and maneuver streets. If the car lulls the user into driving into a traffic snarl-up, we can say that the data that led to that is inaccurate and unreliable. This will take a toll on the car maker’s reputation, especially if it happens to more than one person. They must be quick to redress the issue, or it will ultimately cripple the company and create an opportunity for rival businesses to rise and fill the void.
Certainly, no one wants to go to the wall in such a fashion, and businesses will work their heads off to improve the quality of their data as they seek to make good in a rather competitive digital age.

2023.06.08 09:27 Gold_Arachnid221 Childhood trauma
I’ll just start off with this is the first time iv talked about any of this with strangers. I 27 female I guess wasn’t given a good life from the day I was born . Bio mom was in the mental hospital and grandparents just called the cousin to take me . For a year or two I was tossed back and forth. Bio mom tried smothering me she abandoned me and family finding me multiple times left alone for days still in my car seat cover in feces and bleeding rashes . Well my cousin decided to adopt me. Yay right I was young enough I should have never known the truth. Well it turned out she adopted me for the money and later on given to her husband for a wedding gift. From around 2 or 3 till I was a preteen around 9 or 10 years he raped me . At first I was told it was a secret game for daddy’s and daughters. And then I started to refuse. He would beat me, hold guns or knifes to my throat or anywhere on me . Threaten to kill my younger siblings and mom. He even let his friends have fun with me and carve me up . I finally told and he went to prison. My mom changed that day from loving me to hating me for destroying her family . She would call me wh*** and sl** and taught my younger siblings to do the same . I was raised anyone of them could beat me but I better not raise my hand . It was my job to do. All house work while she drank away . By the time I was 14 I was kicked out over 100 times . I would call cps the teachers the bus drivers random people but some how they never listened . Cps failed me . By the time I was 16 I started fight back but then beat me harder. she took me out of school after I turned 16 . I was raised to be a good house wife with no freedom I wasn’t and still struggling to learn how to drive and I hate it . She finally kicked me out at 18 and I thought I was free. Until she got sick and at that age all I saw was omg my moms sick and my younger siblings need me .I thought she couldn’t hurt me now she’s to week. So since I was raised to take care of everybody else I did just that. I got my first job with a family member but when I started working to much she kicked me out again and dropped the biggest bomb she’ll ever. She adopted me only for the money and for a wedding gift for her husband. I destroyed her family and that she wishes he would have just sold me like she wanted. I left devastated. She harassed me until she died a few weeks later. I was so torn up . Do I hate her do I love her. Did she ever love me . Was she lieing or being truthful? I’ll never know . After she died my family decided I was to get married and got rid of me . I was so deep in depression I did what they all said my body went on auto pilot it knew listening would keep me safe. My ex husband refused to let me work and messed up paper work so I still can’t get a job . Refused to teach me how to drive or even help me. He wanted a perfect house wife . I left him the only plus . My depression broke I guess you could say and I got away I’m still struggling to divorce him and trying to get it to where I can drive and get a job . But i don’t know what to do most days . I’m so lost. It was drilled into me my job was to take care of everyone else but myself . One night it was a bad bad hurricane I made myself food before everyone else . She locked me outside and told me I better find somewhere to go and hold on . She didn’t let me back in the house until the next day . Another time I used some money I earned to get me some shampoo . She beat me bad that day and gave it away. But if u met her off the street she was the kindest person to you and would pretend she had a heart of gold but to me she was a demon and I thought for the longest time it was normal I deserved it . I still struggle with it . I don’t do therapy or anything I can’t afford it . I feel worthless most days . I remember having such big dreams and she crushed them . I feel as if I’m a waste of a person . I have anxiety and panic attacks like crazy . I have flash backs where it’s like im a kid again I can feel his skin smell his cologne I can smell the beer off my moms breath . My boyfriend has had to wake me up because I’ll be screaming and crying and just swinging away in my sleep . I can’t stand public places my mother raised us in a bar . She would broadcast what her husband did to me to get sympathy. Everyone knew what happened to me by him even if I never met them why because my mom wanted things from them free. She used what he did as a cash making story . It was horrible it’s hard to be in stores or anywhere alone I fight panic attack’s constantly it’s suffocating

2023.06.08 09:26 Helpful-Lunch-7121 AITA for driving through a roped off exit?
Would love opinions on this. I am a pizza delivery driver. Today the store was busy and I was on a run of three orders. My first order was to an apartment complex that is a maze. It is extremely confusing to navigate through. To make it worse most places to drive through were blocked of with ropes. Apparently they were redoing pavement. However, it was no longer wet or freshly done.
I drop my order off and try to leave. Problem is, every time I try to turn on to another part of the complex to leave it is roped off. I spend 10 minutes driving around in circles and finally find the exit. However, it is roped off too. When I say rope it’s more like very thin string. I have two other orders in the car and at this point I have lost my patience due to already having a stressful day so I drive through it. Wasn’t proud if it but I didn’t know what else to do. Also, other roped off spots around the complex had clearly been driven through too by other people. From what I could tell the only way I could have gotten out would have been to drive all the way back around to the entrance and exiting the entrance did not seem safe to me.
I get back to my store and apparently some lady called my manager and is pissed I drove through the roped off exit. He said she was very upset. (She knew where I worked because I had the delivery topper on my car with the store name on it.) My manager didn’t seem too bothered by it though and agreed that complex is a mess even without the roped off areas. However I’m worried he might tell my higher up boss about it when he comes in and I maybe get in trouble or written up or worse. I didn’t give it a second thought until I got back to the store and learned someone called to tell on me which made me question if that was the wrong move. What should I have done instead then. AITA for driving through the roped off exit?

2023.06.08 09:26 OtaraMilclub the most logical conclusion is that we may be at the end of the long-running manipulation and set to rocket higher in silver prices. Let me present the facts and leave it to you to decide for yourself.
| A set of readily-verifiable facts have combined to point to a stunning conclusion, namely, that thanks largely to enough people doing the right thing, that the federal commodities regulator, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, may have also finally done the right thing when it comes to the decades-old COMEX silver price manipulation. If my assessment is correct, the most logical conclusion is that we may be at the end of the long-running manipulation and set to rocket higher in silver prices. Let me present the facts and leave it to you to decide for yourself. A bit over two years ago, on March 5, 2021, I wrote an article in which I solicited public support in writing to the CFTC and to elected representatives concerning a letter I wrote to the agency about an issue I advanced for decades – the concentrated short position in COMEX silver futures (which I consistently maintained as a key to the manipulation). While there were many naysayers who countered that writing to the Commission was a waste of time, even more observers took the time to write in. Thanks to all who took the time to write in. https://silverseek.com/article/time-act Fortunately, I took my own advice and also wrote to my elected officials and lucked out when through my local congressman and an extremely-competent staffer who diligently-followed up with the agency, received, two months later, an official response that shocked me. After always arguing with every single point, I raised with the CFTC about the concentrated short position in COMEX silver futures, its response this time indicated that it had shared my concerns with two of its critical divisions, Enforcement and Market Oversight. https://silverseek.com/article/cftcs-response If you take the time to read all the references and facts contained in the above two articles, I’m sure you will conclude that I have presented the case objectively to this point. But what’s this business about mission accomplished and the end of the long-running COMEX silver manipulation being at hand? It has to do with another easily-verifiable set of facts since the date of the Commission’s response (May 3, 2021) – the unprecedented decline in the concentrated short position in COMEX silver futures to this time, particularly concerning the commercial-only component of what I always considered at the core of the manipulation. Thinking back on it, I was always intrigued by the way the Commission concluded its response to me in May 2021, namely, informing me that it could not offer further comment on what it might or might not do regarding the information I provided. This was the farthest cry possible from how it always treated my past complaints about the excessively-large concentrated short position in COMEX silver futures. But how could I possibly know whether the Commission was sincere in its response or whether it was just blowing smoke to bury the matter at hand? Then, it dawned on me – it wasn’t words that would indicate whether the Commission was sincere or not – it was its actions; specifically, what would the concentrated short position actually do following its response? At this point, the record is quite compelling that there may have been strong action associated with the Commission’s words. From the high-point of 65,262 contracts (326 million oz) on Feb 2, 2021 for the 4 largest COMEX shorts (which prompted me to write and encourage others to do the same in the first place), the short position of the 4 largest shorts has fallen to 36,478 contracts (183 million oz) as of the most recent COT report (May 30), and when adjusted to reflect the commercial-only component of this position, the concentrated position is down around close to 27,500 contracts (138 million oz), down close to a stunning 60% from Feb 2, 2021. As I’ve been reporting recently (to subscribers), for the first time ever, on the recent $6 silver price rally from early March to the beginning of May, the 4 big commercial shorts on the COMEX failed to increase their concentrated short position, as they always had in the past. I took this to strongly suggest that they would not do so on the next silver rally, whenever that rally commenced. Now, that I’ve had a chance to think about the Commission’s response of May 3, 2021 and measure that response against the actual record of the sharp reduction in the concentrated short position since then, I can’t help but see the connection even stronger and I feel more assured that the days of concentrated short selling containing silver prices may be behind us. It now seems to me that back in April-May of 2021, as the Commission was preparing to respond to my letter of March 5, it not only concluded that I was correct about the concentrated short position in COMEX silver futures being responsible for manipulating prices, it then informed the big commercial shorts to, essentially, knock it off. Realistically speaking, had the Commission simply ordered the then-big silver shorts to cover their short positions immediately, all heck would have ensued, sending prices to the heavens. It would also have demonstrated that the Commission was negligent for decades. Instead, the Commission, most likely, gave the big commercial shorts some time (say two years) to work down their concentrated short positions. Can I certify that such a time-sensitive directive was given to the big COMEX silver shorts two years ago? Of course not, as how could I possibly be privy to such a directive? But I’ll be darned, that in hindsight, if all the facts don’t fit better than the glove in OJ’s trial. Then why the question mark on the mission being accomplished? Because despite everything I’ve alleged (or speculated about) to this point being as real as rain and easily verified by the actual record; whether we are actually at the end of the silver manipulation is dependent on whether the former big commercials shorts add aggressively to new short positions on the next silver price rally. If they do add aggressively to shorts, that would suggest I am incorrect in what I have just written. In that case, there should be ample time to adjust my thinking and positioning, because a decent rally would have already occurred. If they don’t add aggressively to such short positions, then that rally should prove epic and we won’t have to sit around and wonder any longer about the silver manipulation. I can’t rule out the possibility of a continued selloff, perhaps a sharp one, in the immediate period ahead; but neither is such a selloff guaranteed. Should we get yet another deliberate price rig to the downside, that will only enhance the prospects for the coming eventual rally being one for the ages.

2023.06.08 09:25 EclecticRamblings9 The Nature of the Universe
This should be public. Especially now.
This is a portion of the information I have regarding the nature of our ‘reality’. I simply wish to share. I do not aim to convince anyone of anything. Anyone can find this out for themselves. I am not special and we are all equal.
As we know, the universe is composed of fundamental energy from which matter is formed. We know this energy as electromagnetism, and it may be helpful to consider our Universe as a field of electromagnetism. Time is a construct, simply used to describe motion. The material Universe can be thought of as stationary and simultaneous; the experienced present is the only “time”. This change is dependent on the speed of the material.
What is material, and how can we clear things up from the above paragraph?
Material is quanta of electromagnetic energy. The two fields of “time” and space are reciprocally related, and it is this reciprocal interaction that produces the perturbations allowing matter to spawn.
The two are related by the third power of displacement in either: T3/3 = S3, S3/3 = T
In the bottom equation, it is only T and not T3 due to the fact that we experience time linearly, and space volumetrically in 3-dimensions of motion (X, Y, Z). Technically, time could be considered volumetric and space linear, as it is just a matter of our current perspective.
Matteenergy that behaves inversely – our reciprocal – is in existence in the same ‘space’ that our Universe is, though perhaps it could just be considered another facet of one Universe. This interaction, at the electromagnetic level, is that which causes the perturbations of that fundamental electromagnetic energy that produces physical matter.
3 is used both as a power and a constant in the aforementioned equations. This value can be considered equivalent to the frequency of a photon, the smallest physical quanta of electromagnetic energy. I am using Cf to represent this. Cf = 3
This value is determined by the number of directions available for spatial movement. It dictates the speed a photon may travel in addition to the permeability of matter. Should this value increase, so too would the frequency, and as such the physical size of the photon itself would decrease producing much finer and more energetic matter, capable of permeating our own and capable of much greater interaction with the fields of electromagnetism. Mechanically, such interaction could be better understood by the study of electrophotonics and interestingly would indicate a capability of telepathy, telekinesis, and the like, all explained within the laws of the Universe. I assure that further study of electrophotonics will lead to these conclusions. Awareness is eternal.
Highlighting that our material, 3-dimensional perturbations are caused by interactions with the reciprocal and dictated by the value of 3, it may begin to become evident that that value is truly 6, but we only experience it as 3.
It is not possible for our matter to exceed the speed of light while within the bounds of our Universe, as this speed is dictated by the size of our photon. However, it is possible to isolate oneself from the Universe to effectively exceed that speed, due to the field-based nature of the Universe.
The field that we know as ‘time’ – call it inertia, change, whatever you prefer – is radiated outwardly from the center of mass/nucleus of material. This is why the equation for gravity and Maxwell’s equations align, and in addition, is why Lorentz Transformations must be applied to relativistic calculations. Space is made of substance.
This is also why the inverse-square law functions as it does.
The behavior of our matter comes about resultantly from what may be considered the momentum of quanta, as evidenced by our current knowledge of quantum mechanics.
Awareness is momentum. Please take time to consider this if it does not click right away, especially in the context of the information in this article, as I mean it literally. Awareness is momentum. One may observe this in everyday interactions, in the emotions and behaviors of feelings within themselves, in the seemingly fractal nature of physical reality, in the cyclical nature of history, and so forth. Awareness is momentum. I give no advice or dogma but strongly encourage a quiet time of introspection at the end of days, and periodically throughout. The behavior and nature of emotion may become apparent through diurnal reflection.
Emotion is literally tangible, but we are not fine enough constructs to easily perceive it as such. This is why learning to center oneself and be at peace with minimal ego is so important. Concentration and clearing the mind are wonderful skills. Minimization of ego, quite literally, puts you into more harmony with the Universe.
The brain is what produces the linear thought, the material functionality, etc. – the seat of self is inherently energetic. The intentional, verbal thought, that takes time to think from the beginning of a sentence to the end, is a product of our physical processes and self-awareness. The self-awareness itself is that which is eternal. Have you ever experienced the sensation of a purely conceptual thought, something you understand but are incapable of putting into words? Have you ever had a realization that then required actually dissecting the logic in order to validate, only to find that somehow, the immediate realization produced the correct answer, even though it took your more ‘deliberate’ thoughts several minutes, hours, days, etc. to work out?
Taken on their own, such experiences may be odd curiosities. The unification of all fields of science is required to get the clearest picture; separating the psychological, the physical, the chemical, the emotional, etc. is like trying to build a car with only steel – you have a portion of the right ingredients, but it cannot be a complete picture until you also get the additional components. Someone that specializes in metal fabrication will pull their hair out trying to make a working automobile. Someone that specializes in purely mathematically-represented explorations of the Universe is limiting themselves to a representation of the Universe, not the real thing.
All parts form a whole. The parts are no less significant and individual than the whole but are constituents of, while simultaneously being the entirety of, the whole. The holographic material universe. The Indra’s net of emotion. Can one truly reflect and contain the entirety of the others with misaligned momentum? It’s all the same. Waves return to the ocean, as our standing wave-constituted particles do.

2023.06.08 09:25 Deep-Regular-2418 Talking Shit. What do you say to your GS?
I’m noticing that I have many catch phrases and behaviours to fight back. Also noise canceling headphones and loud music 16 hours per day. I’ve always been obsessed with music but didn’t realize the noise canceling difference. Below are some tactics I use
- when cars rev and I can hear it when Im walking, I give an thumbs down and sometimes boo loudly
- talk shit about “men staring at other men and sort of rant to myself that anyone watching, staring, lurking, hovering or following another man is not a man. A man should be building, creating, moving, doing. “
- some guys will swerve up on me in their vehicle while I’m walking and try to start fights? I have a spray and backup weapons and box hitting concrete, brick, steel and trees so I feel always ready. But in the past year I have had probably 5 of these altercations. Usually a darker skinned black guy (I’m light skinned black) or a white guy that seems to fetishize me almost or be very envious? In these instances I’ve let them know I’m armed and ready while continuing to move at regular pace, give the man speech above, talk shit about “just being a man coming home from work, why are you in my face or I’m armed and ready don’t make me use it. Please, I don’t want to. I don’t exist to you, I’m just a ghost. I’m just a man. Nothing more nothing less”
- When I walk past or approach men or women and suddenly their conversation is louder or someone laughs to loud I immoderately say loudly “nope, not me” or any variation in the above point. Many times I tap my headphone and stare with a bit of a grin to indicate I can’t hear their shit and don’t want to. Sometimes I actually say that out loud to them.
- when walking down the street and headlines are shone or flickered I turn my head sideways sort of horror movie scene style/inquisitive head tilt.
I have many more, I think we should always fight back and kick ass. I’m the dopest dude around with regard to career, hobbies, skill set and wholeness with myself and these people look discriminated when I behave in this manner and 9/10 will back off.

2023.06.08 09:25 pol-potpie got smoked by an aventador today
on the freeway doing 80, nobody else around. i immediately recognize the lambo angry duckface in my mirror, and he pulls alongside. we give each other a thumbs up, and take a beat checking out each others cars.
mach 1 vs aventador. rolling start on a summer day. this is every 12 year old boys wet dream.
but as much as i love an american classic, we all know who wins this race. i bow out gracefully, and with a friendly nod, the bull is gone as quickly as he appeared. i’ve never seen something grab another gear as decisively as that lambo.
whoever you were, made my day.

2023.06.08 09:25 Marmittosaur Best Nose-Up Cars
Since current european regulations have factually stopped any "high nose" car design philosophy, to celebrate this unfortunate departure, I'd like to ask: which vehicle was your favorite among this group and has seen a complete nose redesign this year? I'll give you some hint to better understand what I mean: TUfast and e-gnition Hamburg (just by confronting this year vehicles with the previous ones the difference is apparent)

2023.06.08 09:24 sufferingsomuch I just wanna know what you would consider this situation if it happened to you and what it means?
I’m not gonna go into details about the relationship but I spent months getting beat and cheated on and blocked unblocked death threats, knives held to my throat items stolen. Drugged. Endorsing my suicide infront of police. Everything under the umbrella. I collected evidence (which then was told by counseling to delete) I never got any Justice for anything.
I think I spent two months prior to meeting said individual asking to talk, a sign really just asking to speak. I was given STD’s (without knowledge they were actually cheating on me) I felt disgusting. I really wanted to end the relationship. I kept asking to talk and I had no luck getting a good word in and formally breaking apart. I’d spend nights getting accused of cheating when I was out living life I would fear being around other men as I would get calls and accused.
One day I’m being asked to buy him gifts and so I ask “how come I have to buy you things to see you.” And he said “ask yourself that.” I just don’t know why I even bothered. I drove to the place to pick up the items and then I get phone calls of someone threatening to kill me and how mentally insane I am and then he calls me tells me to go back home tells me to block the numbers. I’m just getting freaked out irl and he hangs up blocks me unblocks me blocks me he calls me cussing me out. I’m getting frustrated and people around me are asking to buy my car. So then I continue to go meet him because I just wanted to speak and break it off I just wanted to talk. Biggest regret. I don’t know why. I was already half way there and he said “come can’t wait to see you it’s fine just come since you’re here meet me here.”
So then I come and hes paying me zero attention very disinterested in anything I’m saying. Very cold. I say “I brought you this stuff like you asked!” Just very disinterested I felt so uncomfortable I shouldn’t even be here. So then he leads me to a McDonald’s and I’m trying to explain why I came and whatever. Zero interest. Then he says “drive to the spot.”
So we drive to this spot that’s behind a bunch of buildings and it’s an empty parking lot. And he tells me to park. Then he gets into the back seat of my car and sits there. I just wanted to talk honestly. He went into the backseat and started signaling me to come back. “We will talk come back here.” Then he pulls his pants off. And I say “I didn’t even shave I don’t even want that I just wanna talk.” And I ask “do you even love me at all?” And then he says “I’ll tell you after you show me how much you love me.” he starts pressuring me by saying “my friends need me, I need to go.” And he says “come on show me how much you love me.” I didn’t want that in that moment it felt so vile…. I just wanted to ask if I was worth anything after everything I did. So then he takes his pants off and says “it’s up to you I gotta go soon though!” And I’m really not sure I felt so much pressure I kept stumbling upon words “what about a condom the stds!” He kept saying “ah well I’ll just go then.” In a tone of voice. I just went into a state of panic. We began kissing. So then I try very hard to please and he won’t even say my name at all. Then afterwards I ask “Do you love me at all.” And he says “you’re only worth like 30%.” “I don’t believe anything you tell me.” “Come back when you learn to control yourself.”
I don’t even know what I responded to that. Besides compete blank emotions. Then I drive him home and leave. Then he contacts me saying “I show my passion through sex” And I just started spamming how can you know your controlling someone and doing this and how can you do that to someone how can you do that. And then he says “sorry Imma have to let you go.” And I’m blocked.
I started second guessing what just happened. I felt like I was sexually assaulted? Was it? Many times through the “relationship.” Which he never “claimed me.” He would film me without consent. Etc. I don’t know what to think about it. Right after I go to work and have a break down. And then a mental program that tells me I’m schizophrenic and I lose it.
