A Pakistani boy once told the Muslim Women's Network that his community "shares" girls: “My mate called me and said ‘Bro I have a surprise for you, come over to this house.’ When I got there 15 of them were sitting in the living room. My mate told me to go upstairs for my surprise. "When I went into the bedroom, another friend was doing this girl. The lads went up one by one and took turns and while they were waiting they were calling their mates, cousins and uncles to come over and join in and showing off. "Others turned up too including two older men who were taxi drivers, who went straight upstairs. One older man said I am going to call my son over so he can practice on her and later his 15-year-old son arrived in his uniform. "Everyone took turns and it took 6 hours. I did get concerned and said, ‘the girl is going to get broke, who will marry her?” The girl is not paid but she gets looked after, she is given food and the boys make sure she gets home safely if it gets late. "There are set days Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays but some of my friends don’t like doing stuff like that on a Friday because it is Juma (holy day) and they go mosque.” Pimping a girl out to your cousins and children is the norm in Pakistani communities in Britain. You do not understand these people. We cannot share a country with them. They all have to go.

This video should be broadcast 24/7. The Muslim Brotherhood leader explains in his own words that, after 700 years of failed attempts to conquer Europe by force, they are now conquering it peacefully with the help of naive Western governments. The EU's weak and corrupt politicians have caused a disaster of biblical proportions. This won't end well.

Our TPUs just phoned home... from space. ICYMI, on October 1, we sent four TPUs into orbit to test whether our AI hardware could operate in space. The initial goal was to see if our chips could turn on, process a prompt, and transmit a response back to Earth. This week, we got our answer. ✨ This milestone brings us one step closer to understanding if space-based compute is possible. We’re sending two more TPU-equipped satellites to orbit in 2027 for our next milestone. Watch this space 👀 and learn more about the first milestone of our long-term moonshot with Project Suncatcher ↓

Latest MP salary donation sent - this time to help rehome retired racing greyhounds from Great Yarmouth. Nobody can accuse me of being in politics for the money.

The long waited body cam footage from my arrest dated August 2025. 10 police officers in ski masks, face shields and equipped with a battering ram entered my home for an allegation of some burgled pasta from a complimentary buffet in a migrant hotel. Some points to note:- • excuse the penguin dressing gown! • there was 95 minutes of footage on 8 body cams so I’ve trimmed it down as best as I can • They refused to let me help my terminally ill mother out of bed • They locked a chihuahua and a shih tzu in separate room to us and initially refused to let them out over “safety concerns” • my girlfriend who is type 1 diabetic and requires insulin to survive, needed insulin immediately. When we were in the lounge it was asked for and told the officers where it was in the bedroom. Apparently 6 officers couldn’t find it after 10 minutes until I said it was a medical emergency and they finally let my girlfriend retrieve it in the exact place she said it was. • The female police officer in the van with me had the language of a 9 year old on some occasions, using phrases such as “more bigger” and finishing sentences such as “but yeah”. Extremely unprofessional. A 30 thousand pound operation over an allegation of unpaid plate of pasta from a complimentary migrant buffet.

Neuralink’s first product is called Telepathy. It enables high-speed communication with computers or humans simply by thinking. Output bandwidth will vastly exceed the fastest human speech or typing in a few years. Read that sentence again.
Our engineers recently visited one of our speech restoration study participants for a 72-hour hackathon. The goal: rapidly prototype as many features as possible to enhance the experience of using Neuralink to communicate with thought. Here are some of the things we built 🧵

Seeing John Ternus smear his fingers all over a beautiful screen is not a selling point it’s disgusting. Apple has completely lost their minds.

Remember when using the wrong pronoun got people canceled? That was dumb.
If Elon Musk hadn't bought Twitter and fought back against the insanity of the last few years, the West would be much further down a path of self-destruction, self-hatred, and moral corruption ​• Pronouns treated like sacred scripture • State propaganda rebranded as "truth" and “misinformation” used to shut people up • Heavy censorship of anyone who disagrees • Child mutilation and sterilization sold as “gender-affirming care” • Birth rates collapsing while governments deliberately import a replacement population that refuses to assimilate and poses a threat to citizens • DEI over competence and merit • Open borders + cultural self-hatred as policy ​He called the woke mind virus anti-science, anti-merit, and anti-human for a reason. Without the fight he started, the damage would already be irreversible The woke mind virus is like The Walking Dead... it never stops coming. The fight has to continue or we risk the collapse of entire Western civilization
