hey @grok, what about strong force binding energy?

TALES OF GRIMWICKE — Chapter I is 22 minutes of AI fantasy animation inspired by the many anthropomorphic animal stories I read as a kid, with a dark twist: The model: Seedance 2.5 (@ByteDanceSeed_ ) via @Segmind_ai. 847 takes generated, mostly 30-second multi-shot prompts, over 5 hours of footage. 127 clips made the cut. About $4.5k in generation, four weeks from first take to publish. Characters and locations came out of @midjourney. Using MJ for the location plates was a revelation: the cinematography and art direction are a level above, and it renders far better as a plate than Nano Banana or GPT Image. Nano Banana (@GoogleDeepMind run on @fal) did the heavy lifting editing those plates, building anchor frames and turning MJ characters into turnaround sheets. Then I let Seedance do as much of the framing and camera operating as possible. That gave the best results. A lot of what I do in my Unreal Engine films came with me: a handheld, imperfect camera operator instead of smooth moves, focus hunting, and above all weather and atmospherics. The model does water, snow, smoke and rain really well, and leaning into that is what keeps it from looking like a Temu Pixar film. The tools I built: a portal (Node on @flydotio) that holds the bible, the refs, every prompt and every take, with a Claude agent (@claudeai) that writes the prompts to the house rules. A Premiere Pro (@AdobeVideo) panel that browses the archive, drops selects on the timeline, versions the project, strips music, and sends fixes back to Seedance. Everything is done in 720p with no upscaling, because it looks terrible. Narration is my own voice through @ElevenLabs speech-to-speech. Music from @Artlist_io. None of this would exist without @PJaccetturo and @Kavanthekid. Their narrative work, Nexus and Chronicles of Bone, proved long-form AI film was possible, and their podcasts, newsletters and X posts, updated constantly as the workflow changes under everyone's feet, showed how to actually do it. Chapter II is currently in the works and I will release it initially on my YouTube channel, The Darkest Age (@CharlieDriscollAI). Consider subscribing there to see it as soon as it drops!

New ad by the Norwegian Consumer Council about the declining lifespan of products.

If you change your mind at the store, don’t just leave stuff anywhere. Today I showed the boys how people will grab something, decide they don’t want it, then leave it on whatever shelf is closest. Somebody has to come behind you and fix that. And with things like meat, milk, or frozen food, leaving it out can ruin it completely. Put it back where it belongs. Respect the workers you may never meet. Doing the right thing usually isn’t hard. It just takes a little consideration.

She’s the ideal feminine body. And as someone who has worked for these companies for decades. This look. This advertising. It’s been standard across the board the entire time. What changed is many of the marketing strategies of the woke agenda tried to normalize fat and ugly and call it empowerment. Sydney is bringing the standard back. A lot of women don’t want to have to live up to that standard so they are shaming it. That’s typical female jealousy behavior The ones losing their minds are the ones who can’t compete with her. The insult is wanting the standard lowered so nobody has to try and men are supposed to pretend they’re fine with it. No.

RNLI volunteers put themselves in harm’s way to save lives. They should never face abuse or threats for doing so. That includes the crews based on the Thames, who respond to hundreds of incidents every year. They deserve to be thanked, not attacked. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0j3…

The RNLI is not a charity. It is a maritime trafficking operation with a donation tin and a government lawyer for a chair. You believed the yellow jerseys. You believed the volunteers. You believed your pennies were saving fishermen. They were funding something else entirely. Meet Janet Legrand. Chair since 2023. Not a captain. Not a coxswain. A senior partner at DLA Piper who built her career representing governments in international disputes. Trinity Hall Cambridge. OBE. The Children’s Society. Every credential screams globalist bureaucrat. None scream rescue. She is not there to save drowning Britons. She is there to manage cross-border legalities while her organization ferries illegal migrants to your shores. The governance structure is a closed loop of insider control. Council appoints Trustees. Trustees appoint Executives. Executives run operations. No external oversight. No independent review. A self-perpetuating machine that selects its own leadership, sets its own strategy, and answers to nobody but the mirror. They tell you 7,800 volunteers serve the coast. The accounts tell a different story. £93.5 million on salaries and pensions. 58.6 percent of total spending. The CEO pockets £189,000, more than the Prime Minister. These are not volunteers. These are paid operatives carrying out a mission. The volunteer myth exists to suppress wages, evade labor laws, and keep you donating to what you think is a grassroots rescue service. But the truth is international. The RNLI founded the International Maritime Rescue Federation in 1924. Today it coordinates 160 organizations across 50 countries. It is funded by Lloyd’s Register Foundation. It managed the migrant crisis in the Aegean Sea. It supplies boats, training, and equipment to foreign rescue teams. It is a node in a global network facilitating mass migration under the legal cover of maritime rescue. Follow the chain. HMRC provides tax relief. The Civil Service Lifeboat Fund provides restricted cash. The government lawyer sets policy. The paid crews execute operations. The international network coordinates with 160 foreign bodies. Every link is controlled. Every link is funded. Every link leads to the same destination. Your money. Your coast. Their agenda. Why does a coastal rescue charity need a government international disputes specialist as chair? Why spend nearly sixty percent of revenue on payroll? Why coordinate with 160 global organizations? Why does the governance structure lock out the public? The RNLI is not saving lives. It is ending Britain. And you are still paying for the rope.
