Night Recap of Timcast Event

Made it back home. The gang was going to the after-party. But I am a firm believer that nothing good happens after midnight. Just watch Gremlins. lol

It was a fun night. I hate asking for favours, and hate feeling indebted, so I bought a ticket and planned on attending as a spectator. Networks are an amazing thing... I had met the security at the Milwaukee event, and they gave me a "backstage" neck pass (which I kept as a souvenir). Got backstage and met the gang. Luke, Ian, Tim's team, and the guests of honour.

Tim looked great, excited, proud of the team he has built. And rightly so. The event was at a church in Little Havana in Miami. A great location, though I was fearful of everything as I am when I leave the house! lol

Met Alex Stein is awesome. He has life in his eyes, and looks like he's genuinely loving his purpose in life. He was loving the crowd as he performed.

Met Patrick Bet David again, and his team. Vinny and I had a good laugh about his encounter with Schmidt. Vinny is intense an authentic, straight-forward and introspective in a way that you don't often see.

I ran into the Redheaded Libertarian. She seemed a little shy, reserved but super friendly. Always fun to see how people's online personas compliment / differ from their real life personalities.

Saw James O'Keefe and we caught up. He's being sued by Project Veritas. It seems (and this is my assessment) that they are keeping PV alive only to sue James. His life has been turned into a struggle of lawfare and persecution, and even if I think he looks tired of it (anyone would be, but it might be my projection), he also looks as determined as ever.

He is also being sued by the post office guy for defamation for reporting on the whistleblower who said he overheard the post office guy talking about back-dating ballots. And James just got a letter of demand for referencing the lawsuit filed against him for defamation. It's a veritable defamat-inception! All thinhs considered, James if rocking. PV can eat shit. Sorry for the swear.

And I met Matt Gaetz. I asked him on what basis they were trying to expel him. He jokingly said it's because he held McCarthy to a budget, then said it goers back to the bogus accusation that he was already absolved of. Guilty until proven innocent. Then guilty even once proven innocent. It's the democrat way... He too seemed tired of the bullshit (my projection - sorry for the swear). but also, probably understandably so.

And funny enough, I was talking to someone who looked familiar. About Miami. Florida. Then Trump/DeSantis. Turns out it was Rob Smith, a man who I think I might have been sassy with on Twitter. We really got along, so I hope my sassiness will be forgotten, though I don't think I was mean or unfair. I jokingly said it takes me a while before coming to the conclusion that negative intentions can be inferred. I think we're friends.

Evening ended, came back listening to Barnes Hitler Hush-Hush. Ate more food than people need to eat before going to bed. And now, I am off to bed.

Peace! No proofreading. YOLO!!!

The Barnes Brief: Weekend of November 21, 2025

I.    INTRODUCTION

A. Art of the Day

We the People. It stands out above all in the scribed parchment inside the glass-encased shield inside the Rotunda of Congress with three words bigger than the rest: We The People. Penned on a single sheet of animal skin by Jacob Shallus, it stands out as the Great Charter of American liberty, the profound experiment in self-government, and still stands today as the oldest and shortest written constitution of any major government in the world today. Those words stand out above the rest, written in flowing letters outsized to the text, to remind the world upon what power our government sits: We the People.

B. Wisdom of the Day

“Monopoly is a great enemy” and a “wretched spirit” which poses a greater threat to the free market than as it prevents free enterprise from self-defense. Adam Smith.

C. Cultural Recommendation

Ratification: The People Debate the Constitution tells the tale of what the true founders – the generation that birthed freedom on this continent – thought as they argued the merits of this new document. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7841680-ratification

The Barnes Brief: Wednesday, November 19, 2025

I. INTRODUCTION

A. Art of the Day

One place where AI proves fun is its image generation capacity, whether for memes, dystopian dreams, otherworldly experiences, or translating photos and ideas into the templated work of famous painters. I asked it to convert this meme into a Hopper painting, and it turns out quite fun, as it blurs and blends the images into the spirit of the people and place, as Hopper so masterfully made so often. A Hush Hush of its own accord.

B. Wisdom of the Day

“AI is unfalsifiable and thus unscientific.” Erik Larson.

C. Cultural Recommendation

The Myth of Artificial Intelligence: Why Computers Can’t Think the Way We Do. The author, an AI researcher himself, explains why much of AI’s narrative is pure fiction.

The Barnes Brief: Weekend of November 14, 2025

I.   INTRODUCTION

A. Art of the Day

Working away in the hidden office, devouring intel and discovering information, to share with the world. My office looks like this, but replaced with digital feeds over the physical ones of yesteryear, processing the running feeds into recognizable patterns that can both explicate and forecast alike. To all the hidden offices uncovering what his hidden for the world.

B. Wisdom of the Day

“You will never understand bureaucracies until you understand that, for bureaucrats, procedure is everything and outcomes are nothing.” Thomas Sowell.

C. Cultural Recommendation

The Dark Side of H1B Visa exposed by a recipient, Raj Kuppa. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25843858-the-dark-side-of-h1b-visa
