EAT ZE BUGS

A Swedish company called Tebrito had a plan to produce meal-worms for insect proteins to put in human food like granola and protein bars. They got $4.2 million in investments to push this toxic "food".

In 2023 they only had a revenue of $49000 and lost almost $12.6 million. In 2024 they went bankrupt because nobody wants to eat insects. At least most people are REJECTING this part of the globalist agenda. 

 

 

Another Swedish company called Mycorena also went bankrupt in 2024. They got $27.8 million in investments to produce 3D printed fake meat made out of mycelium.
It is clear that even in liberal Sweden, people do not want to eat fake food.

Go woke, go broke.

 

 

GRAND MASTERS OF DECEPTION

In an attempt to explain the many levels of "conspiracy" research I often used to use the analogy of multiplayer online games - there are lots of levels, which ever one you get to there are more above it, and if you do ever get to the top one, another one will rapidly be created above it.

But then I had the thought, online games games have only been around for about 25 years, while "conspiracies" go back hundreds of years. And that is when I started thinking about chess.

It is said a chess grand master can anticipate all the possible moves up to seven levels ahead. Whoever is pulling the strings globally would need to be able to do that as well.

It wasn't a major jump to start wondering who all the chess grand masters actually are. And sure enough, no surprises here!

Beersheba in Israel is the city with the most chess grand masters per capita in the world

Bobby Fischer, the highest rated player in history when he became world champion in 1972, is believed to have had two Jewish parents, although Fischer himself was "antisemitic" and strongly denied having a Jewish identity.

Many others would also try to hide the fact so the actual numbers would be higher, but this is the official list of "Outstanding Jewish Chess Players" on Jewish owned Wikipedia:

ARE WE REALLY OUTNUMBERED

While trying to find the correct spelling for the word “usable” (able to be used) I read on an American website that “there are more people using American English than British English” – bollocks I thought, as the word INDIA repeated over and over in my mind…

So just how does the use of American English really compare to British English? Here are some rough figures:

People speaking variations of British English

Indian English (125 million)*
United Kingdom English (67 million)
Australian English (26 million)
New Zealand English (5 million)
Irish English (5 million)
Singapore English (2 million)**

Total – 230 million

*India is the most populous country at 1.4 billion people (yes, slightly ahead of China as of 2025) but it’s hard to estimate how many Indians have some degree of English literacy – 125 million is considered conservative.  **Same with Singapore (population 6 million) – estimate 2 million have some degree of English literacy

https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/population-by-country/

 

People speaking variations of American English

US English (335 million – just the US population alone)

If we also include Canadian English (38 million) that increases the lead even further. Damn I always hate admitting Americans are right, but they got me there!

Other large countries I haven’t taken into account here include Malaysia (British English) and the Philippines (American English)

 

And how is usable spelt? – either usable or useable are both correct! (the spell checkers are wrong!)

And now I’ll make up for my anguish by including a few American memes!

 

 

 

SOMETHING TO CHEW ON

All of Americas "First Ladies" have been men. Yes that does include Melania. No, "she" is not the first exception in American history.

Here are 20 pictures of historic American "First Ladies" to chew on...

WHY I LIKE ODYSEE

This recent announcement was really good to see, and another reason why I'm a fan of the Odysee platform:

 

Dear friends of Odysee,

Starting today, we're removing all ads.

We don't need ads to make money as a platform and we are confident in the development of our own new monetisation programs that will help creators earn a living and at the same time keep Odysee alive.

Ultimately, sacrificing the overall user experience to make a few bucks isn't worth it to us and nor is it even sustainable for a platform that wishes to make something truly open and creatively free.

As we take this decision, one thing is certain to us, media platforms (even ones that market themselves as 'free-speech') typically devolve into advertising companies and end up becoming beholden to their paymasters. It's been that way for centuries and is never going to change.

As we see YouTube become more aggressive with their ad deployment and 'Free Speech' platforms try to build their own ad businesses it's apparent to us that we're building a model for Odysee that will keep it sustainable not only financially, but in its ability to provide an incorruptible user experience.

Our approach may be considered niche or unconventional, that's fine by us. Odysee will be used by the world on terms that are agreeable to its users, and we know our users don't like ads.

Best,

Founder & Creator, Chief Executive Officer.

Julian Chandra
