Rudolf Steiner was so correct when he warned that humanity’s “shadowy thoughts” would one day creep over the Earth like a spider’s web: a brood of half-mineral, spider-like creatures, interconnected in a network with “an overwhelming power of intellect.”
“And from the Earth a terrible brood of beings, a brood of automata of an order of existence lying between the mineral and the plant kingdoms and possessed of an overwhelming power of intellect. This swarm will seize upon the Earth, will spread over the Earth like a network of ghastly, spider-like creatures… These spidery creatures will be all interlocked with one another, and in their outward movements they will imitate the thoughts that men have spun out of the shadowy intellect… All the thoughts that lack substance and reality will then be endowed with being.”
- Rudolf Steiner, GA 204 (Dornach, May 13, 1921)
In today’s world (2026), the Internet is that connective web, running through electricity, wires and power, and reaching further into transhumanism, where the web begins to entrap us. AI, which some fear will become a superintelligence (theory of Singularity), a digital god, or even the Antichrist, works through the same things: powered by electricity, the decaying light of sub-nature, bound to sub-earthly forces of darkness.
Perhaps that is the secret of the “World Wide Web.”

The idea that supersensible perception that permeates your will is the flower of mediation is foreign to most people. Those who are able to receive it have typically experienced the futility of self-indulgent spirituality and haven’t yet fallen back completely into materialism. rrow path that is ripe with pitfalls of its own. Just as the physical world is illusory, the supra-sensible world is more so. There are means for navigating the illusory aspects that have been articulated by Rudolf Steiner and others. I’m happy to offer distillations of those ideas in future reels if you’re interested.

Inconsequential for those not entranced by materialism
Joe Rogan just said it out loud: Christianity was built by a man who never met Jesus.
Jesus never wrote anything down. Paul never met him.
The entire religion is built on a guy who claimed he had a vision on the road to Damascus… then started telling people what Jesus said 20 gospel isn’t a first-person account.
It’s estimated to have been written down decades after Jesus was already dead.
No diaries.
No letters from Jesus.
No eyewitness transcript.
Just oral history… then Paul.
Diamond’s point wasn’t “religion is fake.”
It was colder than that: World-changing movements don’t spread because of the miracle story.
They spread because of the organizer who shows up after the founder is gone.
Christianity didn’t just need Jesus.
It needed Paul.

At least they’re beautiful. The water is used to enrich the plant kingdom, creating a healing green oasis for golfers and non-golfers alike.
Defund golf courses.
Golf courses in America use around 30.5× more water than all data centres combined.
Golf courses: ~531bn gallons/year.
Data centres: ~17.4bn gallons/year.

Agree. It is good to be able to feel things. Poker conditions the feeling life out of people. When I was playing professionally, I lost the ability to cry.
I am a firm believer that @phil_hellmuth's mental game is actually top-notch. He goes on tirades because it allows him to get out all the negative emotions from the previous hand, and he is immediately ready for the next one with a clear head.

Experiencing the fullness through the union of faith and knowledge. Knowing Christ is key in our current age.
Real Christianity is not a religion.
It's a relationship with God.
No rituals, no sacraments, no woowoo.
You believe in Christ and place your heart and trust in Him, and that's it.
You don't even have to be a particularly good person.
And that's the point.
Because no human can climb to Heaven unless Jesus lifts them up.

Housing requires daily maintenance which many do not have the capacity for. This is partially due to mental and social disorders that arise from a disconnect with Spirit.
why can’t we just fcking have world peace and make sure everybody has food, housing, healthcare, and a safe place to sleep??? WHY IS THAT NOT A THING????
