2025-11-21 | Silicon Wafers 063 | Tonight, Vladimir Putin has *apparently* welcomed Donald Trump's 28-point “peace plan” for Ukraine, though in guarded terms… if it had stopped there, it would have been worrying for Ukraine and its partners. But Putin then behaved exactly as I've been suggesting he would. Whenever he senses weakness, even if it is illusory and based on false information, he doubles down on violence, and demands more, more, more. True to form, the address to the nation quickly descended into him ranting and running through familiar grievances, while also threatening more conquest and doubling down on total victory.On paper, he says the plan can be “the basis” for peace. In practice, he's talking about Kupiansk as if it's fallen, warning that what he claims happened there will “inevitably be repeated” across the front if Ukraine doesn't submit. (Reuters) The only problem, is that he mentioned this a month ago, claiming Kupiansk was encircled and about to fall – and the reality is that it still has not been taken. Not even close. So, is he lying, deceived or deluded?----------SOURCES: Reutershttps://www.reuters.com/world/putin-says-us-peace-plan-can-be-basis-peace-ukraine-2025-11-21/AP Newshttps://apnews.com/article/0f90db569cf222e80cfb2c1eb5ea07e1Reutershttps://www.reuters.com/world/europe/europeans-push-back-us-plan-that-would-force-concessions-ukraine-2025-11-20/Reutershttps://www.reuters.com/world/europe/putin-met-with-russian-top-military-brass-kremlin-says-2025-11-20/Axioshttps://www.axios.com/2025/11/21/ukraine-security-guarantee-nato-article-5-trump----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.

It's unfair to require such high standards from a man when you can't give to him what you require from him. It's not about having equal to him, but you should have some of what you're requiring because in a relationship the man needs fulfillment just as the woman does. It's not fair to look for what you can't give and it's delusional to do so. Women want to follow society saying a man should take care of a woman but fail to realize societies are filled with broken/unhealed people who are immature and don't think realistically. There's nothing wrong with wanting someone to have his own, but you should have yours too! Just as he should enhance your life, you should enhance his, it shouldn't be one-way!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/relationships-and-relatable-life-chronicles--4126439/support.

On this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock is joined by Paul Burkhardt and Jay Skapinac to analyze why LeBron James could excel as Luka Dončić's side piece and why the consensus is growing that LeBron is no longer the king of the Lakers. The panel then examines two Duke grads who are now rookies in the NBA — Cooper Flagg and Kon Knueppel — and compares them. Whitlock argues that Flagg is uninteresting and Knueppel could be the league's best rookie. He also declares that he's buying the Detroit Pistons, as the team is 13-2 so far on the season. Whitlock then unpacks the details surrounding Patrick Beverley being charged with felony assault after being accused of punching his 15-year-old sister and squeezing her neck, as well as sports media's reaction to the news. Shaun King joins the show to discuss all things Sanders: Deion claiming he's “the right man” for the University of Colorado coaching job; Deion saying he knew Shedeur was going to play for the Cleveland Browns and that his son is “built for adversity”; and Stephen A. Smith implying that Browns coach Kevin Stefanski didn't properly prepare Shedeur. They also discuss Tulane coach Jon Sumrall saying his team is “average” and that the players sometimes embarrass themselves. High-caliber show today — don't miss it!

The Jeffrey Epstein non-prosecution agreement (NPA) of 2007-08, reviewed by the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR), detailed how federal prosecutors in the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida negotiated a deal that effectively ended an active federal investigation into Epstein's alleged trafficking and abuse of underage girls. The agreement granted broad immunity to Epstein and unnamed “potential co-conspirators,” allowed him to plead guilty to state charges instead of facing major federal sex-trafficking counts, and did so without informing or consulting the victims before the deal was executed. The OPR found that while no evidence of corruption or impermissible influence was uncovered, the decision represented “poor judgment” by the prosecutors.Further, the report underscored significant procedural deficiencies: victims were not made aware of the NPA, the USAO did not meaningfully engage with them in accordance with the Crime Victims' Rights Act's principles, and the immunity granted in the NPA curtailed future federal prosecution of Epstein's associates—even as investigation into other victims and broader criminal conduct may have persisted. In short, the OPR concluded that the case resolution was legally within the prosecutors' discretion, but deeply flawed in its execution and fairness to those harmed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:dl (justice.gov)
Age is something we can't escape. Jeremy Bradley talks about how people react and talk about their age. From dodging the subject (ahem, executive producer, Bonnie Winters) to attempting to be playful ("how old do you think I am?"), JB wonders why people don't just say the number without making it an issue. He talks about being 43 but not "looking" or "feeling" it and questions why people lie about their age for vanity. ("You can say you're 39 all you want, it doesn't change anything about your body," he says.) Later, he laughs at people who post on social media that it's their birthday... solely for attention.
In this episode of "Delusional Fandom," Johnathan and Brad wonder where Max is and then they tackle the highs and lows of sports fandom with their signature humor. From debating the merits of fast food sandwiches to dissecting the Panthers' quarterback woes, they leave no stone unturned.Tune in for a rollercoaster of laughs, sports insights, and a sprinkle of delusion.

Trying to save someone you think that you love only to lose yourself, which includes losing your mind, soul, finances, etc. Stop thinking you have enough love for them and for you because you don't, and you never will. Many people have found themselves down and out because of trying to save the person they love who don't want to be saved. A person must want to change for his or herself, not because you want them to, because it will never work. Most people end up chaning for the worst during their quests of trying to change the person that they think they love! It's foolishness, immaturity, and the effects of unhealed hearts and minds. When you don't love yourself first, you'll never know what love is really about and therefore, you'll do all the wrong things for what you think is love!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/relationships-and-relatable-life-chronicles--4126439/support.

When you're starting out, self-belief looks like delusion.Every artist goes through that stage, when no one believes in you yet, and you have to back yourself anyway. In this episode, Ralph and I talk about why that mindset isn't arrogance; it's survival.We unpack what delusional self-belief really means, how it helps you push through rejection, and where the line is between confidence and ego. Ralph shares his own story from early wins like “Beat Cut” and “Mush Mush” to working with Martin Garrix during the “Cracking” era, and how staying a little bit delusional kept him moving when things got tough.We also touch on: • How to keep believing when results don't show yet • The pressure that comes after your first success • What Showtek taught him about simplicity and momentum • Afrojack's take on copying vs. authenticity • Community Q&A: finishing tracks, self-promotion, contracts & exposure

Life's not slowing down for you to catch up. You either adapt or get left behind.The chaos isn't going anywhere. And the version of you that keeps saying ‘once things settle, I'll start' is what I call delusional optimism. The belief that things will magically get better without you actually changing. I've been there. My clients have been there. And it's the single biggest killer of progress I see every day.In this episode, I break down why comfort is the enemy, how chaos is actually the training ground for your next level, and the simple four-step process we use in our Prime Fit Coaching program to shift from wishful thinking to deliberate execution.Tune in if you're done negotiating with your excuses.

Sean “Diddy” Combs wants a speedy appeal. You heard that right — after just over a year behind bars for his federal conviction on prostitution-related charges, Diddy's lawyers are now begging the appeals court to fast-track his case. The same man who built an empire on control, intimidation, and grandiosity still can't handle one thing: waiting his turn. In this episode, Tony Brueski breaks down the audacity of Diddy's request — and what it reveals about the man's psychology. From his “spiritual reset” speech at sentencing to his lawyers blaming the layoffs of over 100 employees on his arrest, the narcissism is still alive and well. Diddy may be trying to spin this as redemption, but it reeks of entitlement: a belief that fame buys speed and justice should bend for the powerful. We'll explore the disconnect between his claims of change and the reality of dozens of ongoing lawsuits, terrified ex-employees, and a culture of silence finally cracking open. Because when you've lived your life as the sun and everyone else as orbiting planets, prison doesn't make you humble — it just makes you impatient.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Sean “Diddy” Combs wants a speedy appeal. You heard that right — after just over a year behind bars for his federal conviction on prostitution-related charges, Diddy's lawyers are now begging the appeals court to fast-track his case. The same man who built an empire on control, intimidation, and grandiosity still can't handle one thing: waiting his turn. In this episode, Tony Brueski breaks down the audacity of Diddy's request — and what it reveals about the man's psychology. From his “spiritual reset” speech at sentencing to his lawyers blaming the layoffs of over 100 employees on his arrest, the narcissism is still alive and well. Diddy may be trying to spin this as redemption, but it reeks of entitlement: a belief that fame buys speed and justice should bend for the powerful. We'll explore the disconnect between his claims of change and the reality of dozens of ongoing lawsuits, terrified ex-employees, and a culture of silence finally cracking open. Because when you've lived your life as the sun and everyone else as orbiting planets, prison doesn't make you humble — it just makes you impatient.

In this video, you'll learn: - Why “crazy” ideas often lead to real success - How to turn creativity into profit - The mindset shift that keeps entrepreneurs growing - How to find people who champion your vision instead of tearing it down Takeaway: Don't bury your creative spark under doubt or fear of failure.

Mercy Killing or Murder? Was Lorenz Kraus Delusional or Justifying Evil? Lorenz Kraus said he did it out of mercy. But the facts — and his own words — suggest something much darker. In this segment of Hidden Killers Live, we dig into the psychology behind Kraus's televised confession to killing both his parents and burying them behind their Albany home. He claims it was a "necessary act." Prosecutors say it was second-degree murder. We dissect the possibility that Kraus is operating under a god complex — one where his need for control and righteousness overtook reality. His phrasing, posture, and tone in the CBS6 confession video offer clues, but they also raise disturbing questions: Did he kill his parents with their consent — or was that invented after the fact? Is he mentally ill, or simply manipulative and calculating? What role did financial dependence and isolation play? And where does the line fall between assisted suicide and homicide with motive? This isn't just about murder — it's about how people twist morality into justification. We analyze it all, in real time.

Brian Stelter is big mad about the Iryna Zarutska murder. Not that she was murdered. No, he has a problem with people talking about it. The Bullwark played an out of context clip of President Donald Trump to make it seem like he supports domestic violence. They also featured E. Jean Carroll. Gen Z men and women define success differently. Sky blue and water wet, poll also says. The Trump administration is considering banning guns for transgender individuals.
