Welcome to season two.

This week: a dad in North Yorkshire set up CCTV after his cat refused to go downstairs. The footage is pretty convincing — toys moving, doors swinging, skateboards clattering. Except he’s a video game developer. And it’s 2026. And we genuinely cannot tell anymore what’s real on the internet.

Which is the actual problem. Not whether this particular video is real, but the fact that we’ve reached a point where even governments are using AI-generated footage to prove their leaders are alive.

And then of course there's the deluge of predictions, prophecies, and institutional claims that 2026 is the year everything changes. SLASH IS ALREADY CHANGING.

So okay, what do we do with that?

The answer is boring. And also the only one that works.

Highlights:

Bunch of interviews coming up, and then a GGU summer break — details TBA
Story of the father of two in North Yorkshire who fled his home after a bunch of poltergeist incidents
But also he’s a video game developer?
AI has permanently broken video evidence
The Netanyahu coffee shop video, etc
The Princess Kate Photoshop incident
Jordan’s essay on 2026 predictions
Dozens of unrelated sources pointing at 2026 as a turning point: Carl Nell, Gary Nolan, Lou Elizondo, John Ramirez, Chris Bledsoe, the astrological community, Ray Kurzweil
Most predictions are unfalsifiable or already wrong — the more dramatic the claim, the vaguer it tends to be
The Bledsoe prediction (Easter, “a new knowledge”) and the Regulus-Sphinx alignment
But 2026 actually is extraordinary: AI, UFO disclosure, potential WWIII, deepfakes dissolving consensus reality, globalism fracturing, religion surging back
Maybe the seers are just seeing reality as it really is
Brené Brown on parenting (it relates!)
The collective ego story
Whatever you’re procrastinating, stop
On finally starting a daily meditation practice (good job, Jordan! Mal has thoughts)
Kelly Chase on control systems
Economic anxiety is Jordan’s personal vulnerability, but everyone has a soft spot where apocalyptic messaging hooks them
Viktor Frankl
Learning unconditional kindness for the present moment
You can’t future proof your life. Lots of coders who future-proofed by learning to code are out of work right now
What do we do??? The boring answer is the right one

And in the epilogue…

Squaring Mormonism with…everything else
Does religion lead to or protect against spiritual enslavement? (Yes.)
The correlation between certainty and death
