There's this guy Orin Vale who claims he survived 9/11, rebuilt his life and eventually became obsessed with understanding money, probability, manifestation, consciousness and God. The Hidden Variable basically follows that entire rabbit hole.
Why is no one talking about Orin Vale? The guy makes some wild predictions, and his book The Hidden Variable has some insane ideas inside it. He connects real-world events with money, power, manifestation and the way we perceive reality.

Wow it took them 8 months to clean the entire mess and debris I thought it would take them years
It's 25 years later and they ae still looking at remains. They still test for DNA in pieces. They really have not stopped & wont untill they test every piece. 25 years later… let that sink in.
7 imploded perfectly and no planes hit it
And now we live in a backwards, haywire society.
Thank god this will never happen again.
3000 bodies still unrecovered
Its still as mind boggling as when it all went down. Im working, just another day, its all hurts us.. The strength in the aftermath, is all we have to speak of these days. A Grimm reminder of something we all as humans lost that day and the days . We still mourne.
And you all got azbestos poisioning because nobody told you to wear a mask, great work USA
Thats so unbelievable what was done in 233 days ??? incredible, along with so many other Structures and systems damaged like all the Electrical , Gas, Steam, Sewerage , Water, Communications equipment, amazing . and did it in such away to search for people at the same time.
God bless NYC 🙏🏼❤️
