We continue walking though the changes. Change is starting to manifest. And larger changes are looming ahead of us. Don’t be afraid. Just roll with the changes. And here, we just continue on the various segments of news and culture in this particular point in time.
For those of you who are unaware, I do have a You-Tube MetallicMan. And There’s a bunch of free videos up there. Over twenty all talking about a host of subjects. You can browse over there, when you finish with this article as you wish.
Speaking of You-Tube…
My first ban on you-tube!

The video was “Chinese Medicine Stories“.
And I am at a loss as to why it was banned. So I clicked on “Review Content”…

So I was banned becuase I was talking about medical misinformation. And that fell under the COVID policy. WTF? Seeing that I did not talk anything about viruses, injections and vaccines at all.
So I appealed.I explained that I was talking about the joint use of traditional medicines alsongside Western medicines in Chinese hospitals and clinics, and I wasn’t talking about coronavirus at all.
I think they fixed the problem, and allowed me to continue to post the video. But I really don’t know. They haven’t sent me an email.
In the mean time, you all can watch the video yourself HERE. It is not listed on the subscription section of my channel.
I assume that you can access it by the link. If you can or cannot access it from this link, please tell me HERE –> .Too tired. Eh?

Elon Musk bought Twitter and is making changes…
This is the latest tweet from Elon, after (of course) he bought Twitter, and banned ALL censorship there:
By “free speech”, I simply mean that which matches the law.
I am against censorship that goes far beyond the law.
If people want less free speech, they will ask government to pass laws to that effect.
Therefore, going beyond the law is contrary to the will of the people.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) April 26, 2022
Twitter employees are still working. It’s probably a majority of staff that is going to have to be fired. The company has 7,500 employees, which is obviously absurd. Most of them work relating to censorship – which is just insane – but obviously a fair number of them do basic things to keep the site online. Elon will do the shuffle, and people will start to shuffle back on.
It’s really, really happening.
Russian Army BOMBS Airport Hangar Storing West-Supplied Weapons for Ukraine
Russian missiles have struck an arms depot housing weapons from the United States and European countries donated to Ukraine.
The Russian defense ministry said its Kaliber missiles destroyed hangars in the Zaporizhzhia region of Ukraine which contained “a large batch of foreign weapons and ammunition supplied to Ukrainian troops by the United States and European countries”.
Yesterday, Russia accused the West of “pouring oil on the fire” with weapons deliveries fueling the nine-week-old conflict. They have also repeatedly warned that such weapons donations are legitimate military targets.
The U.S. and European countries simply ignored such warnings and continued shipping weapons.
Those weapons have now been destroyed.
The United States and NATO have ruled out sending their own forces to Ukraine, but Washington and its European allies have supplied large quantities of weapons to Kyiv, including drones and anti-aircraft and anti-tank missiles.

Allow me to introduce . . . Transnistria. It’s a place you’ll be hearing a lot about shortly

Transnistria controls most of the narrow strip of land between the Dniester river and the Moldovan–Ukrainian border, as well as some land on the other side of the river’s bank. Its capital and largest city is Tiraspol.
Transnistria has been recognized only by three other unrecognized or partially recognized breakaway states: Abkhazia, Artsakh and South Ossetia.
Transnistria is officially designated by the Republic of Moldova as the Administrative-Territorial Units of the Left Bank of the Dniester (Romanian: Unitățile Administrativ-Teritoriale din stînga Nistrului) or as Stînga Nistrului (“Left Bank of the Dniester”) under Russian military occupation.
The region’s origins can be traced to the Moldavian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, which was formed in 1924 within the Ukrainian SSR. During World War II, the Soviet Union took parts of the Moldavian ASSR, which was dissolved, and of the Kingdom of Romania’s Bessarabia to form the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic in 1940.
The present history of the region dates to 1990, during the dissolution of the Soviet Union, when the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic was established in hopes that it would remain within the Soviet Union should Moldova seek unification with Romania or independence, the latter occurring in August 1991.
Shortly afterwards, a military conflict between the two parties started in March 1992 and concluded with a ceasefire in July that year.
As part of the ceasefire agreement, a three-party (Russia, Moldova, Transnistria) Joint Control Commission supervises the security arrangements in the demilitarized zone, comprising 20 localities on both sides of the river. Although the ceasefire has held, the territory’s political status remains unresolved:
Transnistria is an unrecognized but de facto independent presidential republic with its own government, parliament, military, police, postal system, currency, and vehicle registration.
Its authorities have adopted a constitution, flag, national anthem, and coat of arms. After a 2005 agreement between Moldova and Ukraine, all Transnistrian companies that seek to export goods through the Ukrainian border must be registered with the Moldovan authorities. This agreement was implemented after the European Union Border Assistance Mission to Moldova and Ukraine (EUBAM) took force in 2005. Most Transnistrians have Moldovan citizenship, but many also have Russian, Romanian, or Ukrainian citizenship. The main ethnic groups are Russians, Moldovans/Romanians, and Ukrainians.
Transnistria, along with Abkhazia, South Ossetia, and Artsakh, is a post-Soviet “frozen conflict” zone. These four partially recognized states maintain friendly relations with each other and form the Community for Democracy and Rights of Nations.
THE “WAR” IN UKRAINE IS NOW ENSNARING TRANSNISTRIA
Over the past few days, there have been a series of explosions in Transnistria. Russian soldiers there are on a war footing now, Moldova is also on a war footing.
There is a gigantic arsenal of Russian military weapons stored in Transnistra; weapons that Ukraine would like to get their hands on now that Russia has smashed most of Ukraine’s military.
Those weapons supplies would vastly improve Ukraine’s ability to defend Odessa from the approaching Russian Army.
A critical bridge was taken out last night with a missile attack, cutting off a supply route from Moldova to Odessa, Ukraine. A train full of gasoline tankers crossing that bridge was destroyed.

Civilians in Transnistra are now high-tailing-it out, trying to cross the border into nearby Moldova. There are huge traffic jams at all border crossings. Moldova, in the meantime, is setting-up police checkpoints to check everyone entering the country.
RUMORS (unconfirmed at the publication of this story) say Romanian Troops have entered Moldova, and been given Moldova Military uniforms to pose as Moldova troops.
Romania is now a member of NATO.
So it is beginning to look as though trouble is being deliberately started by NATO, through Moldova, against Russian-controlled Transnistra, over Ukraine. How’s THAT for convoluted?
Incidentally, if Romania troops, pretending to be Moldova troops, attack any Russian military in Transnistra, then “NATO” will have “attacked” Russia, and “it’s on like Donkey Kong.”
UKRAINE LOOKING FOR HOSTAGES TO “TRADE” FOR AZOV NAZIS IN MARIUPOL
Ukrainian journalist Yuri Butusov described what’s __really__ going on:
"I am convinced that in order to save Mariupol, it is necessary to hit Transnistria. There is only one chance left to save Mariupol."
Butosov gives 6 reasons (see above article) but the first is:
- capturing many thousands of Russian military for exchange.
HAL TURNER ANALYSIS
Seems like a pretty desperate plan but what he intends is that Ukraine must capture Russian military, in sufficient numbers that they have enough prisoners to offer an exchange for the people trapped at Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol.
He envisages that Ukraine would then hand over Transnistria to Moldova.
This plan will work perfectly, so long as Russia does nothing… except Russia is already NOT doing “nothing.”
This move against Transmistra makes crystal clear that NATO is utterly desperate to get its people out of Azovstal.
They know to an absolute certainty that If NATO troops are captured inside the Azovstal Steel Mill, having fought side-by-side with Ukraine against Russia, then Russia will have iron clad proof that NATO has literally waged actual war against Russia and it’s “game on because NATO attacked.”

Trained Russian Navy Dolphins are Protecting Black Sea Naval Base, Satellite Photos Show

Russia has deployed trained dolphins during its invasion of Ukraine to protect a Black Sea naval base, USNI News has learned.
The Russian Navy has placed two dolphin pens at the entrance to Sevastopol harbor, sheltered just inside a sea wall. The pens were moved there in February, around the time of the invasion of Ukraine, according to a review of satellite imagery.
Sevastopol is the Russian Navy’s most significant naval base in the Black Sea. The dolphins may be tasked with counter-diver operations — a traditional role both the U.S. and Russia have trained marine mammals for. This could prevent Ukrainian special operations forces from infiltrating the harbor underwater to sabotage warships.
Inside the port, many high-value Russian Navy ships are arranged out of range of Ukrainian missiles but vulnerable to undersea sabotage, according to satellite photos. During the Cold War the Soviet Navy developed several marine mammal programs, including dolphin training in the Black Sea. The unit was based at Kazachya Bukhta near Sevastopol, where it still is today.
With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the unit transitioned to the Ukrainian military. Although there were attempts to keep it operational, it barely stayed open. With Russia’s 2014 annexation of Crimea, the unit came under Russian Navy control. Subsequently, the marine mammal programs have been expanded and returned to operational service.

This is part of the Russian military’s wider reinvestment in marine mammal programs in the past 10 years. This has included the Black Sea Fleet’s unit and a separate operation in the Arctic.
In the Arctic north, Russia’s Northern Fleet uses different types of marine mammals. Beluga whales and seals, both with heavy layers of fat to keep warm, are better protected against the cold than the bottlenose dolphins used in the Black Sea.
The Arctic unit has also become more active in recent years. Beluga whale pens have now also been established at Olenya Guba, the secretive naval base of GUGI (Main Directorate Of Deep Sea Research). The intelligence organization is believed to be responsible for key undersea espionage assets of the Russian military.
On April 23, 2019, a trained beluga whale turned up in northern Norway. Nicknamed ‘Hvaldimir’ by the locals, it is believed that this whale escaped from the Russian Navy program, according to the BBC.
It’s not just the Arctic that has shown signs of increased use of Russian marine mammals. In 2018 the Black Sea Fleet’s dolphins were deployed for several months to Russia’s Mediterranean Sea naval base in Tartus, Syria, according to satellite photos. The mobile pens used for that deployment were very similar to the ones currently positioned in Sevastopol harbor.
It is unclear whether Ukraine has planned any combat-swimmer operations against Sevastopol. But dolphins are widely considered by naval analysts a considered an effective defense against divers.

Undertow (1949) Film noir
We end this installment with a classic film noir movie.
Personally, I love film noir. I consider it true and real art. I hope that you do as well. If you have the time, go enjoy this movie…
Undertow 1949 full movie. Scott Brady stars in this film noir crime drama as an ex gangster from Chicago who has gone straight but ends up framed for the hit on a powerful mob boss. This crime film has a great chase scene involving a LONG corridor which should not be missed. The film hits all the standard noir plot points and is a quality picture.
