[[STORYTIME]]
Everytime I was taking a Grab around the Philippines, I would always tip both on the app and in cash. But there was this one ride I don’t think I’ll ever forget.
The driver asked me if I was in a hurry because he needed to stop and fuel up first. I told him to take his time and not to worry. When we got to the station, I remember watching him count his notes and coins carefully, figuring out how much fuel he could afford for the day. He mentioned how expensive fuel has gotten now. I understood because it’s the same in AUS, but seeing him count everything right in front of me, may kirot talaga sa heart.
While we were waiting for the attendant to ask how much he wanted to fuel up, I reached over and handed him some money. He immediately told me my Grab was already paid by card and that it was okay, but I told him to take it anyway, that it was my tip or little help for the day.
I still remember the look on his face. He couldn’t believe it. He kept thanking me and said something like, “May panimula na ako agad sa araw ko.”
And after we fueled up, he told me that before he accepted my booking, his wife had just messaged him saying his name wasn’t included in some assistance list they were hoping for. You could really feel the weight he was carrying that day.
Honestly, the joy and relief it gave him stayed with me. Sometimes the smallest acts really do mean the most to someone carrying burdens we don’t fully see.

THE TIME HAS COME FOR THE EARTH-SHATTERING REVELATIONS OF FORMERLY UNTOUCHABLE POWERS:
The battle has been long, but it's a testament to how far we have come from where we started. The most powerful forces on the planet sought to suppress us by maliciously targeting me, thinking it would silence us all. Despite their extreme power and vast resources, we emerged victorious.
Their actions forced us to dive deeper and uncover widespread corruption on an unprecedented scale. What we have uncovered continued on and on, unlike what we originally imagined. Now, we're stepping back into the light, ready to share EVERYTHING we've discovered. Together we can blow this case wide open.
The wait is over. Together, we're about to reveal truths that will change the course of history. The world is about to learn what we've pieced together starting tomorrow. Get ready: The perception of yesterday will be drastically altered. The world as we know it is about to change. 🚨🇺🇸🫡 🇨🇳

First word from the SEC v. LBRY hearing:
The SEC admitted on the record that the token itself is not a security.
Good job Mr. Deaton!
