#997- The Glitter Conspiracy

Oh that's are hello, and welcome to the show.

This is the Cult of Conspiracy and I'm the Cage to Night and today we wanted to take a little moment to discuss a wild conspiracy that may some of you may have heard of, some of you may not. As it is getting into the Mardi Gras season, you know, there's a lot of decorations, there's a lot of makeup, there's a lot of costumes, a lot of floats in our area of the woods, and all of them seem to have an obsessive amount of glitter on them. We love glitter, I mean most people do. I, for one,

It's because it's microplastic.

Oh yes, indeed, which that does tie into some of the conspiratorial conversation today. Some of it is microplastics, some of it is considered edible. What you're going to talk about that. Some of it is mineral based, mica base, some of it is sugar based. We're going down this rabbit hole, and all of it really from a twenty eighteen situation where allegedly there was a global shortage of glitter.

Odd that both companies are based out of New Jersey. Not far from each other either, No, they're like down the street from each other, which is really strange because they have no connection to each other same county. So I don't really understand why of all the places, New Jersey is the hub apparently, but I think that ties into some of their friends that they sell to, which we will get into.

So with this, this New York Times article was written, and the Internet conspiracy was born now, how much of this is based in reality, how much of this is internet lower all the things. We're going to talk about that all today. Because I had no idea that glitter had such a conspiratorial background to it. We had to start all the way back to the Manhattan Project. Yes,

I had Mars. You can't forget about Mars.

And apparently we're putting glitter on Mars.

So excited about that conversation because once I heard that, what fucking elon? What's crazy?

Is?

I actually, when I was first reachar researching it, it said that it was linked to the cartel and it was linked to the diamond industry, and I'm like, what the fuck does liitter have to do with a cartel? But I think it all kind of stems from the forensic science part of it, because glitter is like their favorite thing in forensic science, which is really interesting when we read about it.

So forensics how they discover how a murder took place, and they try to put together the guilty party, the victim, and the time and place of which it happened. Somehow glitter makes its way into that conversation way more often than I thought.

Yeah, there was a whole articles just about how many forensic scientists love glitter, like it's like the best thing ever for them to solve murder cases and stuff. So it's a really interesting kind of crazy deep dive. I wanted to go on for a good while, but even starting out, I had just heard about the article and like this, everyone has probably seen this reassurgence of this TikTok.

Which that also is a pretty massive lynch pin. This dude the creator of glitter right and the creator of the company that made it for pretty much ever. His son was one of them, well, one of his sons, the one that went on interview and did all these things, who also made a few pretty astounding I don't want to say discoveries, but.

He created it, yeah, their discoveries. He created stuff that was that's still used globally right now.

So a key player for the company. And yeah, there was a couple of kids and it was like a board and all these things. But the guy who was really doing some groundbreaking discs, coveries and innovations as far as this industry is concerned, was later fired and from what I can only tell to be a very dirty blood feued power play by his siblings, and they have now run the company into the ground, and we're gonna get into all of it, y'all. I had no idea, We honestly had no idea.

As far as it was crazy, but I didn't know. Is this crazy? And it ties into sand eventually, which I'm going to do an episode on the sand industry. I've been talking about it forever, but yes, all of it kind of weirdly ties into each other.

Yes, indeed, So without further ado, we're going to go ahead and share the screen and we are going to show all the videos, all the articles, all the clips for all of the glitter conversation. If you are somebody who would like to see this rather than just hear us talk about it, what you need to do is go to the link in the description below to patreon

It is our book club and it is called the Hidden Chapter, and so every month we are going to dissect a book that is from all different types of topics. Right now, we are going to be breaking down How Jesus Became God, which is a really interesting book so far.

Well Tuesday night nine, yes, but also Sunday at nine Ye lots of nines.

Man, we got Tuesday, Wednesday, Sunday, Like I don't know.

Anyway, So there you go. I'm just saying on top of all of that, you will also we go to that maniac tier next and when you go to that Maniac here you will also get exclusive merch sent to you. You'll get a care package. We have a year's worth of stickers that we have already created. Actually, we have a couple of them right here.

As a matter of fact, they're really awesome. We took a long time to be able to create some of them, so I'm pretty pumped. And we also have all the members are getting their own custom shirts that are exclusive just to that tier, and we also have lots of background stuff we're going to be dropping more of and we're going to just kind of be more engaging on Patreon itself, and that's where you'll be able to reach us anytime day or night. We check it, we get notifications, we reach out, we.

Talk back, we do indeed. And also the merch is going to be available for all of our cult conspiracy merchandise. It is not going to be a Patreon exclusive store. We thought it was going to. We thought that would have been the best way to go about this. However, Patreon has an organic shop within the website, and it's it's not exactly what we are trying to do. It's not about them getting their cut. I can't verify the quality of their merchandise, and that's kind of a big

I'm so excited about the merchandise. We've actually already picked out the hats and the designs we're going to do. We've picked out the t shirts that we're going to do, and we picked out the mugs so far. So we're going to start with those things with the launch and then we're going to go from there. So pretty pumped when we get it all together.

We're not going to charge somebody twenty dollars for a five dollars shirt. We're just not about that. And I'm not saying that that's what the Patreon shop is about, but I can't verify if that is or is not what it's about, and so we're just we're not going to do that. So we are going to have a store, a merch store available. We're going to be posting that here in the next few weeks as soon as we get it all ironed out. But the merchandise is going

Because they don't want anyone to know that it's glitter. These ten words kicked off one of the biggest Internet conspiracies of all time.

Can you tell me what your big fire is?

No?

I absolutely know that I can't.

Okay, but you know what it is?

Oh god?

Yeah, and you'd never guess it. Let's just leave it at that.

In twenty eighteen, a New York Times article went viral when a manager at one of the largest glitter producers in the world refused to admit who their biggest client was. But another thing that really stuck out to people was this comments. Since we're a glitter manufacturer, anything we do is now called glitter. This is important because glitter was invented Slash discovered in the nineteen thirties at a precision cutting factory of film and paper for clients like Kodak

Because okay, so a couple of things, he was on the money with a couple of things he was kind of off with. So as far as the where it was discovered, yes, it was in the nineteen thirties slash forties, but it wasn't in the manner at which he said. He is correct that it was with the Kodak company.

He actually is the one that holds both patents yeah to it. So he created this himself.

And so long story short, and there's a weird tie in that we're gonna make a little bit here in a minute. The Kodak company employee was hired by a government group that was working on this new thing that nobody had heard of at this time called the Manhattan Project. Yes, glitter ties into nuclear weapons testing, and so with that

It's wild.

That's a crazy state.

It's a wild statement that glitter was a byproduct of an atomic bomb. And it's crazy to me though, that glitter is used globally and pretty much in everything. Everything uses glitter, and some of it is okay to use, some of it is really not good to use, allegedly, some of it's okay to use.

We're gonna get more in depth with it anyway. So now we're going to get into the New York Times article the thing that sparked this internet conspiracy. And as we're getting into it, you'll be the one to judge. Is this strictly an internet conspiracy or is this a real situation that we need to be more aware of in our day to day lives. Let's get into it. This is from the New York Times. So this was

So is it pet? Or is it pet? Right? It's pet? So is it we call tariff?

Right?

Tariff thollate?

Well? I know, but to sum it up, it's they They always make it as pet or pete. I'm not sure how you actually say. I assume it's pet, but pet, So that's what where are you looking? Oh, you'll see it in other articles as we can't.

Tell you on but that's I guess it just depends on the context. Right, It's like saying caribbean or caribbean, and I'm sure there's going to be somebody that works in industry. It's like it's actually peef. Y'all are both wrong? You know what? Sorry?

Instead of having to say the entire thing, that's what they shorten it to. So when they're talking about glitter, which sure.

So moving, that doesn't even illuminum metallized polyethylene tariff thalite. How is that pete poly e?

T see?

Oh?

In that one word, the polyethylene so polyethylene. And then the last word they put terrifate. Yeah as pete.

Okay, so well now we know.

Look, I'm just I'm about the simple shit, not having to read these big guys words.

Yeah, I'm good with it. So the aluminum pet settles over store windows like dazzling frost. It flashes like hot molten gold across the nail plates of young lemon. It sparkles like pure precision cuts starlight on an ornament of a North American brown bear driving a car towing a camper van. No idea what that's supposed to mean, Oh,

Man.

I'm glad they really fucking broke it down for us. Like God, damn.

Good, damn.

Glitter is glitter. That's it. You're fine.

Big glitter begets smaller glitter, smaller gitter geitter. Smaller glitter gets everywhere. All glitter is impossible to remove now, never asked this question.

Again, Well, thank you for swing it up for us. I really appreciate it.

The New York Times man, they're just hitting with the hard facts, unquestionable hard facts here. Ah, but it few like an impertinent child seeking a logical, timable timetable of what is it?

Logistical timetable? Logisticalause?

Look at that? You know what you could read? You're better read than I am anyway.

Pause, Oh my god, nocturnal.

Okay, I'll just read it all up.

We're so tired today.

But if you like an impertinent child seeking a logistical timetable of Santa Claus is nocturnal intercontinental journey. Demand a more detailed definition, A word of warning. The path to enlightenment is littered with trade secrets, vapors, aluminum, ingots, CIA, levels of obfuscation, the invisible regions of the visible spectrum, a unit of measurement expressed as ten dash six m.

And also New Jersey, fucking Jerzy?

Why why does it always have to go back to Jersey?

If I think of New Jersey, I'm so sorry to all of our Jersey listeners. All I can think of is Knock Knock and like her in South Park. I'm sorry, Listen.

I know that there's more to New Jersey than the Jersey Shore, but for a solid fifteen years, that's all anyone ever knew about it.

You know, I've met them, all of them in New Orleans.

I'm sure they're just wonderful. Baby.

They were interesting, I'll give them that. It was by accident. It was underneath a parking garage where they're coming out of the hotel, and I was trying to like park and they decided that they were more important with all of their cameras than anybody else. And I was like, hey, that checks out. Could you like move the fuck over? And they were like, oh, well, don't you know who we are? I was like, yeah, I do, Yeah, we know your white trash from the north.

Can you move move over?

They weren't bad people, they did move their car and stuff, but I was like, huh, And all I could think about was a south Park episode And I really wanted to ask, oh, how do you feel about the south Park episode? At about y'all? But I didn't.

I refrain, You're stronger than I am, because.

I really once I saw her, I was like, oh God, no, don't do it. Don't do it.

So like, Snookie is not a bad person, right at least now. Back then, I can't speak to it.

But a lot of the I don't really watch it, to be honest with you, So I.

Only saw the clips and it was always their worst moments. And I get that. I get that. But Snookie herself has become a really, from what I can tell, a really amazing mom. She used her platform and used her money to pretty much set her and her family up and has taken a massive step back from the limelight. And she'll make appearances and things, and she'll help host stuff, but she's not the woman that everybody once remembered, you know what I mean.

And most of them have for them, but now they all seem like really genuinely good people. It just happened to be that. That was the first thing that when I like actually locked eyes with her, all I could see was hers like a rat god, and all I was like, oh, God, don't do it. Don't intrusive thoughts, y'all sometimes don't act on them.

I've learned you're stronger than me. That seems to be a going trend with me. I have an issue just rolling deep with my yes yes thoughts. That glitter life back to the human Even humans who don't like glitter like glitter. It's true. We are drawn to shiny things in the same wild way our ancestors were overcome by a compulsion to forage for honey. I think it might be golden honey that they were after.

Okay, sure, no, fucking Mawana just popped in my head. That's why I started laughing.

Because it was shining.

I'm sorry, y'all. I am lacking sleep right now, and I just happen to be all over the place. This is actually we spend a lot of time on this, and I'm over here thinking about the fucking crab with.

I mean, that's a really funny part though, Yes, okay, back to it anyway. A theory that has found favor among research psychologists, supported in part by a study that monitored baby's enthusiasm for licking plates with a glossy finish, is that our attraction to sparkle is derived from an innate need to seek out fresh water. What was about the baby's licking a shiny plate? You're like, you almost died on that one.

No, I did not. I am here and I am like flocked in.

You know, they could have also used like you know what, We did a study in these marines kept licking windows. We do think that the baser level of early man might just be attracted to humans or attracted to shiny I just.

I just thought of so many things. My brain is just popping off this morning.

Bright colors and shiny. Is that why we love crayons? They're bright colors and they're shiny.

I mean, people like shiny everything though, so I glitter. Glitter is one of those scenes like even when people don't want to like glitter. They still like glitter because guys with cars looking at like a nice paint.

Job year to see. If you've ever seen my car, I don't wash it, So.

You know what you're just I'm not gonna go there.

Maybe I'm just not that type of human. I don't know. Shiny shit has no bearing for me. What unless actually I take a back sunglasses. I do like my stupid gaudy sunglasses. And I love jewelry. Yeah, I love rings jewelry, and I do want gold teeth.

So you're a shiny bitch too.

Yeah, but it's not glitter, it's gold. There's a difference.

Yep. They put glitter in everything.

We're gonna talk about it more. But they're saying that it is derived from an innate need who seek out fresh water and somehow that's jogging our caveman lizard brains into seeing shiny things as water. Who's to say, right? So glitter is a touchable product, or more correctly, an assemblage of touchable products. Glitter is a mass noun. Specifically, it is a granular aggregate like rice is an invention

So what's interesting is we actually I didn't pull up the article anymore, but the glitter term glitter was actually used in a patent from fifteen oh four. I think it was in patent. Yeah, so the guy that created fireworks, actually it states in the title glitter and yeah it do we have that up. We do have it on the computer. We don't have to read it though, I could just summarize it, but pretty much that he used the term glitter when talking about when it actually burns

And it's also interesting connection because as the Glitter company, as we just read heard from that short, since they're a glitter manufacturer, everything that they produce is classified as glitter, which is very interesting because as we go into the rabbit hole of the military industrial complex and what they are using quote unquote glitter for the fact that the first pattern of it was an explosive, yes, and then we cut to what they are classifying as glitter for

It does, especially with hercules.

Oh yeah, the rocket fuel. We're going to talk about it all y'all.

It's crazy.

If you think you understand where we're going with this, I promise you don't.

There's so many places that this goes to. It's crazy. It took us two full days, honestly, of reading through so many things because It's not just this though, it's also the new stuff that they're trying to produce with glitter, and how it's affecting things, and how they're trying to change, how the molecules are the cellul loos with it, and.

It's just yeah, I'll put it like this. So the Nestley company, right, we all have all seen the single use plastic water bottles with Nestli logo on them. Correct, Okay, This would be the equivalent of saying that Nestley is a water company, so everything they produce is classified as a water product. That would and you know Nesley has all kinds of food products they also produce. That would be a crazy, intellectually dishonest statement for them to make.

So when we're talking about these two companies, we're talking about Glitter X and we're talking about meadow Brooks, and so meadow Brooks is the originator. They have lost a lot of their stock and a lot of their stuff. Because of the sibling rivalry and everything else, they've pretty much run the company almost to the end of the ground. Yeah,

So right, right, right, all right, So let's get back to it here. Tensil, which has existed for centuries, does not become glitter when cut into small pieces. It become bits of tinsil. Right. The tiny shiny, decorative particles of glitter we are familiar with today are popularly believed to have originated on a farm in New Jersey in the nineteen thirties, when a German immigrant invented a machine to

So he actually holds the patent to glitter, which one Henry the one that created it on accident. But because it was a byproduct with film and paper, yep, that it falls under the patent somehow.

They had it classified under there like an umbrella patent for the while. So then he finally got his own distinct patent in sixty one.

Yeah, so he has. So he created the patent for the machine that cut the photo films and paper in the thirties which led to the creation of glitter. And now it's actually under all of it like it all is a patent underneath meadow Brook Inventions.

Wow, all of it.

Together owns all the patents period. So hid and his son created the hieroglyphic holographic hunk hieroglyphic. Oh my god, oh my, I'm thinking about the conversation last said about ancient ee jip I guess yeah, no, they hold all of it, so they every patent is theirs.

Wow.

Okay, all right, so we have a long way to go on this one. Let's let's get back into it here. So uh anyway, the pictures, uh yeah, the pictures were to replace Christmas candles, which the wartime Army had banned after sunset, along with neon signs and times square and the light from the Statue of Liberty Torch after determining that the nighttime glow threw offshore Allied vessels into silhouette, transforming them into floating U boat targets. That was a

So the private company is meadow Brooks Inventions, and we actually have a video of them. These people were able to get it least in contact with the sun that was mixed out of it, and so they actually were able to get an interview. But this was years after this, twenty eighteen. So this whole article is about glitter X, which is now the biggest company when it comes to glitter which we're.

Going to talk about meadow Brooks in particular here in a bit. But yeah, So glitter X was found in nineteen sixty three. Babu Schetty or Baboo Shetdy sixty nine joined the company as president and CEO in nineteen ninety nine, though he had been working to develop some of its glitter product since the nineteen seventies, when he came to the US from Mumbai to earn an advanced degree. His

He is a PhD. I just fell into it.

He has a PhD that he got from an actual university. But he saw a movie one time where Dustin Hoffman was recommended to get into the plastic business, and he's like, you know what, I like glitter? Now, bro, you're from India, Like we know. But anyway, he also did not want

Yeah, So that whole statement that you just read was the premise. One of the big things about the entire glitter conspiracy was because he was so hell bent on her not even being able to enter into the wing

Let me ask you a question, Ravenly, you are somebody who has been around the world a good number of times. You've been around the block. You've also worked on certain mechanical components. You understand what certain power tools sound like. But all of that to be said, would you know what a belt drive sounded like? Not in a car.

That's not really fair because I feel like I'm an unjust person to ask because I actually worked in a chainsaw manufacturing company for a BOH and I also did some work with Boeing and so yeah, like, so I have more I feel like I would have more experience, at least in that area being able to distinguish some things. I'm not saying that I'm an expert by any means, but I feel like a journalist would not understand what she's hearing when it comes to massive components like that.

But also, would you know what a water jets sounded like when it was being operated from outside the room.

I don't feel like I would. I feel like I might try to think of what it was, but I don't feel like I would be able to distinguish what I'm listening to, especially when they're all going on at once. I don't think I could pick out, oh, this is this and this is that. I think I might have a general idea just because of doing like you know, basic research of like, okay, well maybe they're using this

That being said, you mean plastics coded aluminum bits are bad for the environment.

No, So they're trying to not have the aluminum bits. So they're actually trying to change the composition of glitter completely and put it into a breakdown type of one that isn't gonna impact anything around it. But you can read in just that one scientific article how glitter supposedly is made, and it zooms in it shows you pictures of what they've looked like, all different types underneath the

So we have a couple of theories on that, but we're gonna we're gonna kind of bounce back to those after we get more information from all the sources because I have my own theory and I have a feeling you might have a couple of working theories too, So we'll see, we'll see, let's get through all these things, and then we'll kind of circle back to why they are so secretive that they don't even want somebody in the same wing as the glitter machine when it's making glitter.

I don't really know if I have a theory'd be honest with you.

Okay, Then I got a couple of guys like I.

Mean, I have I guess I have more of a theory when it comes to the aerospace situation, that atmospheric stuff. So that's where my obviously, because if you ever listen to what I talk about and what I like, over the last two years, it's more or less science stuff, and so that's where I'm more hubbing to. But I also read way too many research articles yesterday. We're so boring.

But that's kind of where I'm sitting. It's not that it's they're making glitter. Glitter is a byproduct of what they're doing, and I think that might be more of the issue.

Oh maybe it'stick ocky, Okay.

Hey maybe, but again, we found it. The glitter was just discovered when they were making components for a nuclear bomb. So of course they weren't going to have anybody even in the wing when they were making these components for the nuclear bomb.

Now, granted, I'm curious and I think it has a lot to do with nuclear weapons. I think it has a lot to do with that kind of stuff. But we'll see once we I mean, we got a lot to get through and then by the end of this, I mean, we'll see what we decide.

Indeed, so moving on, you see where I leave off at here, Revlon, and that fine. I was welcome to come down to glitter X headquarters to learn more about what I could not learn about in person. The glitter factory is located in a beige business park, a short walk from the office of a company that makes sidewalks

Like, why the fuck is that so secretive?

There's this giant glass case when you walk in, but it's got glittery products that I can't talk about.

It's so weird, Like the whole thing is just being ridiculously weird.

Yeah, it's like actually, even vaguely, you can't even say, like it's a trophy like a sticker. Like I said, I couldn't talk about it.

You know what, we should go to New Jersey and try to get try to try to break into this place, not really break in obviously were we ask permission first.

I mean, I guess we could try to break in, and depending on what level of security and what level of arrest we get, might dictate a little bit more like yo, if we catch federal charges.

But you know something big, anybody I'd want to talk to it would be Henry the junior that's who I'd want to go and talk to, because you know, they're having a whole land dispute right now that that's like super big. The entire town is in on it, the

So that name Henry.

I felt like that that was his name now to me, But that's he's trying to protect all of this. And so it's interesting because that man that factory is still technically running.

I'm wondering now that I've heard it put in this way mm hmm. Because it's New Jersey and it's big money, like big astronomical money associated with glitter. I'm wondering how deep the mafia is embedded on this one. And now that you mentioned that there's legalities and big courts and they don't want eyes in this area and all this, it's like, Oh, it's.

A point four billion dollar industry that's supposed to go up another two billion in the next few years, all.

Being done by these two small manufacturing facilities in the middle of New.

Jersey in the middle of nowhere too, by the way, So like Meadowbrook originated and it still is a cattle farm.

See, but now that they're a glitter company, those cattle are somehow classified as glitter.

So the glad so they've always been both, yeah, pretty much. And so it's really so once you dig into that specific place, what's hard is I've tried to find information on glitter X and it was damn near impossible, right, Like, so you can see that it says nineteen sixty three that it was invented by this guy. Yeah, when you look into him. The only person that I could pull up was an actor from India.

It could be him. Maybe he's starting like a film in the nineteen sixties, not.

Just one film. We're talking tons of films.

I wonder if Babushetty is like actually a pretty common name in India.

I think it is. But I was trying to find and I kept putting in glitter X and I kept trying to find more information on like the land that it's on, what does it look like? Who owns it? Who backing all this stuff?

Let me find out Bollywood is involved with big glitter, Like that's a whole other rabbit holding.

They even surprise me considering how much glitter they use everywhere. But it's crazy because it's you can find information about this one coming, but when you try to find anything about the siblings and what they've been doing, no, good luck, good luck for the last thirty years trying to figure out since since Henry the Junior got kicked out, there's nothing like you really can't find what they've been doing. Now you can find what he mentioned on the interview.

The connections here are very strange, they are very very far flung, but somehow, and I swear cult members, we're not like pulling your leg, We're not waiting to pull the rug out from under you. All of these things connect literally, Mars exploration, boating, yeah, big picture shipping, big picture logistics, satellite hubs, military industrial complex, aeronautics, arches, seating, cloud seating, all ties in to glitter.

So that makes me question, like, okay, so is Elon involved because you think because Tesla's involved and all their stuff, that he uses.

The Hercules rockets that he used with SpaceX. I used to know the rocket engineer and one of the mechanics that worked on those at stanis Air Force BA. As a matter of fact, they were working on hercules. We are going to be talking about the hercules manufacturing company that made the rocket fuel, which apparently was glitter. Yeah, because by definition everything this company manufactures is glitter.

There's so much. It's I don't know, it's just a weird thing. How all this ties into each other and how this is one of those things that no one talks about. And also the microplastics that is in everything the water, the ground, the atmosphere. Everything now makes it makes total sense that it's in males balls because it's literally in everything. And everyone thought that it was coming from the water bottles and all of that.

And I'm not saying there's no connection.

I think there is a connection, but I think, actually, the more we've done research on this, I actually think that it comes from glitter.

I wouldn't doubt it. It's all right, right, let's get into it. So anyway, aside from the display there was a scan, there were scant other hints of the building's glorious purpose. So let's continue on here. It says that this is until one entered the bottling warehouse itself, which

I like how he's just so straightened to the point too. He's like, why can't you figure this out?

I mean, even I even understand how they're talking about it, but it still makes no fucking sense to me.

I don't know.

Okay. So I have no idea how humans figured out how to do that or why it occurred to them to even try, but it sounds expensive. The primary functions of glitter are, of course, esthetic. Glitter exists so that glitter can be put on things that do not have glitter on them. Wow, popsicle sticks, stuffed animals, arises, Newt gingridge. I don't know why Nuke Gingridge has glitter on him,

I had no idea, ah, saying okay, So if you want to make something cool a cool color, it is almost always impative that the color you select is one that the human brain can process.

Yeah, no shit. The colors of the visible spectrum, arranged in order from the longest to shortest wavelengths, are ROYGBIV right, the red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet? How do we perceive them? Something about cones in our eyeballs? What are the cones? Detect light waves in lengths between about four hundred and seven hundred nanometers. How long is

What do you mean?

So I had to explain to Jonathan that I own a chem light that if I was to crack it and shake it up and turn the lights off, you wouldn't see it, like it would not be glowing. However, if I threw on some mvgs on you, it would have this room so bright that it would probably blind you. And he's like, wait, that's a thing, And I'm like, bro, the spectrum of light that humans can see versus the spectrum light that's actually happening around us all the time.

It's so wild to me the different layers and spectrums that like, we're such babies compared to what everything else is happening around us. And that goes into so many different other fields too, So, oh yeah, this is kind of crazy, Like how how the hell did they even think of This is just I don't know.

This was a I don't think this was a whole lot of trial and error either. I think that this was specifically done with a lot of intention and a lot of purpose. This took a genius level engineering to get to this, like oh yeah, it's just this film that has this many nanoparticles and it's this small and like, oh, we've industrialized it.

The way that he describes it to you though, Henry the Junior, he's just kind of like, you know, I made it. It's like whatever. He's so nonchalant about it on the interview.

It's bullshit. That's that's an engineering marvel. That would have flored it.

I wish I was that smart, Like, seriously, they're so crazy and it's always interesting. So many genius level people are just like, oh, well, Lake. Didn't you see it? No?

No, when in my education what I have learned about these concepts? My boy?

Yeah, I I don't know. There's some crazy. It's so many things that people invented that it's just like, how did you understand to do this?

It's again, I don't think that this was by accident. The discovery of glitter may or may not have been by accident.

Yeah, I think that was truly by accident. But then what they did from there.

Yeah, from the atomic bomb to the patent in sixty one, I feel like there's some very sizable and serious gaps that we're just not privy to to where it was like all right here, it's gonna sound fucking crazy, but I have an idea cut to It's a multi billion dollar a year industry from these two small spots in Jersey.

Mm hmm.

Yeah.

It's crazy to me that they're still being able to manufacture the world's glitter the world. How much glitter is used globally.

It's mind blowing. So anyway, let's get back into it here. The difference in thickness of the iridescent film strips was imperceptible by touch. Well, yeah, obviously there are other more obvious sized difference. Of course, craft glitter is the thickest and least technologically advanced to remove it, Mister Sheddy recommends soap and water or fabric softener sheets to combat the plastic static cling. Yeah, good fucking luck, dude.

Fabric softener sheets.

Like dryer sheets, which I have heard and I have had some success in the past with getting off my daughter shit, good luck getting all of it because it gets within the fibers of the clothing.

Well, considering what do you cheer competition in the amount of glitter exactly that we use in the amount of glitter that I'm about to be a shine like a fucking diamond tonight at the Marty parades.

So uh hey, glitter so fucking much. Anyway, it is impossible to recreate the light catching effect of glitter without using tiny particles of something, which means that if an object looks glittering upon close inspection, a credit card, an NFL helmet, a jet ski paint job, there are good

And I have so many different types of glitter too. When it comes to makeup like the obscene amount of types of glitter I have. I have every kind of size, shape, color, you name it.

I believe you. Researchers and zoo keepers sometimes mix glitter with animal feed to track animals, polar bears, elephants, domestic cats via sparkly feces.

Yeah, the poop.

That's a thing like that. That's a real thing you could track. You know, if you got a polar bear that you're trying to watch the lifestyle of and where they hunt and all these things, you feed them glitter in food and then track where they're poop sparkles. That's mind blowing.

I feel like there's so many other things that you can potentially give them, maybe like a ship. I don't know, but glitter, sure, glitter is it?

So?

Plywood manufacturers insert hidden layers of color glitter in their products to prevent counterfeiting.

Wow, I didn't know that.

I did not either. Because glitter is difficult to remove completely from an area into which it has been introduced, and because individual varieties can be distinguished under a microscope, it can serve as useful crime scene evidence. Years ago, the FBI contacted glitter X to catalog samples of its products. The average American said, mister Sheddy sees glitter every day. Most of it is hexagonal. I had no idea about that. And we'll talk about the FBI situation a little more

A glitter in the nail bud.

Yeah, and next thing you know, boom, glitter is the thing that fingered the purpse, so to speak. And it's it's wild. How the that's a technical term. That's a technical term.

I know it is, but yeah, it still has never been a very good term. I'll say that.

I mean, like Freddy Got Fingered was a movie.

Oh my god. Anyway, anyway, the tiniest glitter and glitter X makes fifty fifty by seventy five micron.

Macrons micron micron, so a micron is one thousandth of a millimeter. So to give everybody a good perspective on that one, look at a ruler.

Math is terrible for me.

Look at a ruler and you have inches on one side, you have centimeters on the other side, right cool, The tiniest little line on that centimeter would be a millimeter. Now we are talking about taking that tiny line and making a cube, a one millimeter cube, okay, or a square a square millimeter rather, excuse me, square millimeter. Now we're gonna break that into thousandths of itself. That is

Nope, I am not because I am terrible with math. I got you, like, I tracked along with you, but I'm just like, like, conceptionally wise, I'm like, nope, can't figure out how to do peopoop.

It's ridiculous.

I know it's super small. I got that part.

The minimum order size the company will fill is enough to supply sparkle to half a million bottles of nail polish by mister Shtty's estimation, which is ten pounds. So ten pounds of glitter is enough to give half a million bottles of nail polish their sparkle. Wow, that's insane.

And think about how much they actually produce a day and what it goes to mm hmm.

So prices may vary depending on particle size, the formulations and combinations of polymers involved, but at the upper end, which is to say, the smaller end, the more microscopic end, a ten pound plastic bag of glitter costs about one thousand dollars. The company offers over ten thousand varieties. So this was all very forthright, but it did not explain the air of oppressive secrecy that seems to permeate the

That's it. That's the line that got everybody.

They whoever they are, don't want you to know that whatever this product is that everybody is apparently using, they don't want you to know that it's glitter.

M h.

And this is where the realm of speculation begins. Let's continue. If I looked at it, I wouldn't know it's glitter? No, not really. Would I be able to see the glitter? Oh, you'd be able to see something, but it's yeah, I can't. I asked if she would tell me off record. She would not. I asked if she would tell me off the record after this piece was published. She would not. I told her I couldn't die without knowing. She guided me to the automotive grade.

Pigment, the nicest way to be like, yeah, no.

No, what about after this?

No?

What about after Hey, have you looked at our automotive paint section. Let's go there and talk about this now. So for those who love glitter, there is wonderful news. All modern plastic glitter that has ever been created is still right here with us. According to doctor Victoria Miller, a material scientist and engineering professor at North Carolina State University. The plastic film for which most glitter is made, takes us about one thousand years to completely biodegrade on Earth.

Y'all, this is like one of the most toxic things that we have.

Oh, an aluminum can this I am currently drinking and energy drink as I am one to do. An aluminum can takes five hundred years to biodegrade and return back to the Earth. Glitter takes a thousand. I don't I don't think that we can actually like put to words how fucking ridiculous this is.

It's one of those conversations though, that they aren't having because because they use it in so many things, they're not going to get rid of it. So the whole conversation about pollution will we're polluting everything by using glitter?

So dot, I guess so, because each particle is less than five millimeters long, I said, glitter falls under the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's definition of microplastic, which, for the record, yeah, like this is this is by definition microplastic, is it, like, oh, well, by a technicality, No, this is literally microplastics, a category of material that has lately

Fry, she said, Wow, Wow, Okay.

So anyway, we're kind of getting to the end of this article. Here says so what is glitter? A manipulation of humans in inherent desire for fresh water? An intangible light effect made physical, mostly plastic, and often from New Jersey. Disposable by design, but it turns out not literally disposable. A way to make long winter nights slightly brighter despite the offshore presence of Germans an object in which the inside of a potato chip bag meets the Aurora borealis.

That's ominous as a shady dude. The whole thing is shady, like the way that he just talks about stuff. Yeah, I don't know. I think that there's a lot more to him and Glitter X than what we what she could even find out, oh.

One thousand percent. But now let's go a little bit more in depth here, right, So this is this is kind of where it began. This is a there was a documentary that was put out. Okay, it's called The End of the Glitter Conspiracy. It's on YouTube and it was from two years ago. So they were finally able to get some type of information, right, and so this is the guy who his dad was the one that created and invented or discovered however you want a word

What's on screen right now is actually the glitter factory on the land. Yeah, this is the glitter factory that supposedly is still up and running, and that his siblings are quite torqued off that he even allowed somebody to film it.

So, I mean, they could get bent. We need to know the answers. But let's watch this together, y'all.

Don we were there shaking hands with the lineage of the glitter fortune.

I'd put an holographic glitter, so when that comes the whole story.

A German immigrant living in he developed a reputation for cutting photo films. After years of cutting film for Kodek, the US government approached him in photo films. After years of cutting film for Kodek, the US government approached him. They needed an expert in precision cutting for a mysterious project.

He got assigned some projects from the government during the war to work on the Manhattan Project. And in the Manhattan Project, his job was to take micah, which is a the mineral comes like this from the ground, and his assignment was to take him to make a washer.

So you said that the government, they came to your.

Father, They sent the FBI. They checked him out because he was German and it was wartime, and they he was the only one who was able to find a way to grind this make washers from this material. So they put the plutonium rod through it, touch it up against the uranium and put some dynamite on top, and that caused a nuclear reaction.

It was odd to us that the US military had anything to do with a glitter company at all. But what Rushman said next made us realize that the Manhattan Project had nothing to do with glitter companies. It actually created a glitter company, the world's first.

So when it was spinning to make the washers, a little glittery flakes spilled out of the mica. It was the first glitter that was commercially used to go under Christmas trees because all the employees took it home and sold it to drug stores. We mixed it with other stuff.

So this was like before or after he invented the glitter.

Wow, this was a glitter that he didn't have to invent.

It just happened.

Henry Rushman Senior, the inventor of modern glitter, invented glitter by mistake. The core of his business is and always has been the precision cutting machines that the US government sought after, and it didn't end with the Manhattan Project.

Yeah, we made radar chef What does that mean. The radar chaff is fibers cut up in different lengths, packaged into round circles, and they shoot this thing out of the back of an aeroplane and it explodes and then this is a cloud of these little fibers and the radar of the oncoming missile goes for the fibers.

How do you discover something like that.

You don't discover it. You take what people want, you know.

The government came there.

They come and they say, we want this, Can you make it?

Yes?

Always say yes. So people don't know about this stuff. We did work with the Picatinny arsenal and you would not believe. One of the projects was to make it a battery. They didn't tell us the formulation, and it produces more electricity than any of these batteries. But it's all hush hush. The government doesn't tell anybody what it is. They just showed us what it could do. Incredible. We had a machine dedicated to making a steel fibers that

Up until now, the most popular theories have been based in speculation. Now we have official confirmation that glitter is actually in all of these things.

There's a lot of things. There's edible glitter. I didn't have much to do with that. There's glitter and toothpaste. They cut up a thin film of green whatever it is, the minty stuff, and you know they're using a toothbrushes. But this isn't my day. This is aluminum and polyastic glitter for toothbrushes. You ask a kid which toothbrush they're gonna use this one, Ariellow one. They're all gonna take those one.

But the question at hand is who is the biggest buyer. I want to clear up a misconception. It's that The New York Times didn't ask glitter X about a company, but about an industry.

Of course. Okay, so real quick, the man just broke down how glitter was first. I want to use the term discovered created.

I think created is a good term for it. So how it first came about was by happy chance.

From the Manhattan Project. So to cut back here, the Kodak Film Company, which you would know for Kodak cameras today, hired the dude to do precision cutting on some of their film bits.

And because he was the only one that actually ever created this, so he had held the patent for the machine that did this.

This would be very similar to the first guy that developed a C and C machine or like a metal lathe or something like this, and kept it as a super secret for years and years and years until he realized there was a market for the bits that came off of this, and then decided that well, now I am a metal bit company that happens to do cutting, but if anybody asks me, we are a cutting company that might sell the metal bits. And you see what I'm saying, it got nessed up in to the layers

Theymired a German immigrant.

By the way, before World War Two. Just so we're clear that there was a couple of speculations as far as oh, well, glitter was given to us by the Nazis via Project paper Clip. That's not accurate. This was a German immigrant that moved to America prior to the Nazis taking over Germany. So just so we're clear, Project paper Clip doesn't have much of a place on this one.

And without it, the entire thing would never have been able to succeed, right like, So we actually kind of looked into more of it and the breakdown of it, and it definitely would not have happened without this precision cutting tool that he created. And he was the only one able to actually utilize it and do it to such a level to where it was going to allow it to explode, right and it was crazy. So without him. But when you look up the Manhattan Project, he's not

Well, that also kind of ties in because there's so much secrecy surrounding glitter that this guy who was using this cutting implement that allegedly no one knew about never existed because we can't talk about what it's used for or whatever. He didn't even get an honorable mention.

No he didn't. So he's all the scientists that even did some kind of component is mentioned in this he is not one single time.

But you can look up the fact that they had to use micah washer's in the building of this That's what I'm saying.

This smetics of it. They'll show where the washers are located, and that in that component is one of the key lynch pins to being able to create the atomic bomb.

And that's why this isn't necessarily conspiratorial as far as this statement is concerned. Just because he's not mentioned doesn't mean that he wasn't the guy. Because there was only one dude with one machine on Earth at that time that we know about that could have possibly cut Micah into these washers to the specs that were required for the nuclear bomb. So we know for a fact that he was involved with it. Whether his name is associated with the list of credits, if you will or not, I.

Don't know if it's in this one or if I read it in the paper that Henry the Junior wrote what, but pretty much he states that the FBI scouted his dad for like months, I believe it, and did all sorts of stuff before they decided to come about it and approach him to utilize this tool. I guess they were doing other things and they were watching him this whole time.

So well also because it was during World War two. Yeah, right, I mean the Manhattan Project happened or was developed after we had entered the war, both in Europe and the Pacific. So if we got this German engineer, yeah, he might have come over a few years ago. But like, how loyal to like his home cause is he? Because there was a lot of Germans that were living in America at that time that were very, very sympathetic and proud

Wasn't that like a secret thing that like they would they would go and try to like recruit other people that were German.

It wasn't necessarily secret though, because like remember they had an American Communist Party, which they still do technically, but like think of it. We've seen Peaky Blinders, right, You remember the last season where Oswaldt Moseley was like this guy who was starting the British Fascist Party, and the last scene they tried killing him and all these things. But beside the point, that's a real dude who really was trying to start a fascist party in England and

Oh wow, oh yeah, you can get into the politicians because they're fucking corrupt every which way from Sunday set there.

But there was a lot of American industries that were actually very pro Nazi Germany before America started fighting them.

What's fascinating is so my dad loved Germany and like believed heavily in German engineering. Oh, for sure, lots of different things over engineering, but yeah, that's it. They're some of the most I would wager them in Japan or neck and neck when it comes to engineering things. Now, China does have a lot of things that they produced too.

They stole a lot of that though, so do we.

But I will say that the Germans, when you look at a lot of their stuff that they've created, it's crazy the level of engineering that they've had over the last century to that point.

The refiner I used to work at our centrifugal machines were developed by Germans and we had to get German representatives to come in to calibrate certain components once a year because nowhere else could produce this shit.

Yeah, so this is kind of ties into this. So Germany has when I was looking into other research for a show a while back, they have this group that is weird how it ties into every freaking body. Yeah, but it is an environmental group on the surface, right, So on the surface, it is a first and foremost is a firm that helps businesses be able to grow their businesses, and they all are under this umbrella. Then you look at the next level of it and they're an environmental firm.

Sure.

But then when you actually start really finding and trying to see who utilizes them, because they have a list of some of the people that they use. They are tied to every single industry globally, and they have their hands in every single country. And I don't doubt that this that glitter X is involved with them because they

And that's the other thing. So, okay, these government contracts usually they're third party contractors. So like let's say, just throwing out an example here, Lockheed Martin gets a government contract to build some new space component, some new aircraft components, some new component to go on a basic M sixteen. Who knows they're not going to develop it themselves unless they there's some sort of a industry secret to their

That's saying no idea, yeah, things that you learned today.

So also Picatinny Arsenal, like they were talking about just now, they developed somehow a glitter company developed a battery component for them. So and I was like, wait a minute, the company that made the rail systems for weapons is also big into the battery industry. But again we are talking about the military industrial complex, and that's everything is connected to everything, and everybody makes anything that you could want, because that's how this goes.

So.

Picatinny Arsenal is a key army hub for weapons and AMMO research and development, involved in developing advanced batteries for soldiers and artillery research, extreme condition power, and fielding new systems like the mid Range Capability or MRC missile batteries, all while dealing with related engineering and logistics. They work on everything from soldier warm power sources to large scale artillery components, innovating to make batteries lighter, last longer, and

You mean glitter bombs.

I actually believe that those were drones. For the most part. I'm not saying there was no UFOs, y'all, calm down. But I'm saying that the majority I believe were drones, and I believe they were testing out new battery capabilities. And that's also why I was such a big secret, because these orbs were staying airborne for six to eight hours at a time. No one else on Earth currently can make a battery in a drone last that long.

I mean, but he even stated that they that they helped the military with what do they call again starts with an S the stuff that shoot out the battomplane. Thank you, Yeah, that they created that.

Which we're going to talk about that with the aerospace thing here in a minute, for sure. But also I wanted to kind of circle over to this one because I feel like I've brought this up before. I know there's a lot of conspiracy people that believe that nuclear bombs aren't real.

You told me this yesterday, and I've actually never heard of this, so I'm sure other people have not heard of this either.

So just so everybody's clear, when the Manhattan Project was in its very early infancy stages, they were trying to make a successful nuclear explosion happen, right, and the way they did that, and then the components and the materials and all of these things. We had to use uranium that was mined from Africa. We had to use plutonium that we developed in a lab in America. We had to use dynamite. We had to use all these things.

This is wild. Yes, I mean I want you to read this article because that was crazy. When you explain it to me, I'm like, no, why so?

And I've talked about it before, but I'm this article is going to do a way better job of explaining it than I have ever done. But here it is. When Kodak accidentally discovered a bomb testing. Yeah, so, two thousand miles away from the USA bomb testing in nineteen forty five, something weird was happening to Kodak film. The ground shook a brilliant white flash and belt the sky

Which crazy I thought it was interesting that it was code nemed Trinity.

Yeah.

I thought about the matrix and I was like, hmmm, it's weird. There's a lot of references to the Matrix characters throughout history, yea.

Or is it the matrix movies made reference to a bunch of characters from history.

The matrix theory in and of itself is really an interesting one to me, but it is so.

One of these mills was located at along the Wabash River in ving Scenes, Indiana. Probably mispronounced that my bad. It specialized in producing strawboard, used as a stiffener board between sheets of film. When Web investigated the mysterious fogging in the nineteen forty five situation, he found that it originated not from the X ray film itself, but from the packaging, which he tracked to this particular mill, and specifically the production run of strawboard from August sixth, nineteen

No, you didn't lose me. I'm just I'm letting you rant about it.

I just know.

I'm not trying to rant. I'm trying to explain why you have radioactive fallout from sites like.

No, I'm completely I mean, I understand this. I was just.

Yeah, the Chernobyl is different. Chernobyl is a nuclear fire that has been going on for forever. Fukushima is different because that's radioactive leaking into water.

It's still leaking.

Test sites where like the Bikini atullt where America tested so many nuclear bombs that over a course of years to where you had local civilizations that were downwinders that had not just one exposure some radioactive particles, they were getting blown on them for years. So they got it that's a little different. One atomic bomb going off, you're gonna have some quote unquote radioactive you know, situations there for a couple of weeks maybe, But the vast majority

Straight called them ount a hard core yeah.

So now we get to the whole keeping it quiet thing. Web wasn't the only one who felt or who knew the fallout could travel vast distances. As the years passed, he became increasingly clear that the United States government knew the fact's ear on. Immediately following the Trinity test, the Manhattan Project's chief of Radiology Safety Stanford Stafford Warren warned that the test needed to be conducted at least one

Eloy that old boy helped make from Kodak. Yes, like it all comes about.

It's a very strange connection, but at the same time it is there. Now, let's get back or do you want to go back.

To the video no, So this is so he brought up Hercules when he was talking. So this is actually just like the company's history. This is actually really interesting website. This talks all about history of all different types of country all across America. Yeah, and it talks about the entire scope of their history and background. But I just wanted to read like a quick thing for them. And so the DuPont breakup of all the circle of all the industry and stuff like that happened in nineteen twelve.

The advertisements on this website.

Are atrocious, and so I just wanted to kind of show though, because they manufactured cotton celluloas and that what.

Is happening website, Dude, I don't know.

And so it's interesting because cellulos is one of the things that they're using for litter as well, right, And so he actually talks about Henry Junior talks about how they sell to their friends down the street in Delaware, which is hercules, and they actually make they diversify rocket

We're not going to be able to unless.

It's a small it's an explosion company. They have, like one of the sub sectors of their company is explosives.

I'm just going to read this list off before we could do anything else here.

I already read what I wanted to. But yeah, So, the company's history is a manufacturing specially chemicals and materials used in pulp and paper, food, pharmaceuticals, personal care, paints, adhesive, constructive materials industry. The company has four main divisions and so one of them is leading provider of products that are used for physical properties and water based systems, the fiber of visions. Hold, we can't see it because of the stupid thing.

This is insane that we're not going to be able to. Yeah, anyway, long story short, The Hercules Company, if anybody wants to look into them, are involved in a whole lot of industries.

So you see there are leading producers of thermal bonded poly proplane steeple fibers, various texture fibers. Their edited division is plywood, and there's all sorts of stuff. They also do the detonation stuff, They do water treatment solutions. They have many areas that this company in and of itself is actually involved in, and the early history of it

Which it also makes sense because DuPont is one of the big ones as far as the uh you know, the robber baron age and these these huge magnates that were worth more money than God or and all these things. Right, DuPont was one of them, and they also got hit with the anti trust laws at one point in time, the government made them break up their quote unquote monopoly on so many things. So the Hercules Powder Company is one of these companies that was a split off of DuPont,

Yeah, So DuPont. They never actually lost their retention in Hercules itself. The president of Hercules was later related to the two DuPont du Pont family in nineteen seventy. They never actually so a lot of their stuffy they had to like you know, break up and all these things. But Hercules though, they never actually got rid of and they never lost any interest in this company, and it's

Yeah, like from the old days.

Yeah, from the old days to now. This is this is one of their buddies that has been buying a lot of their shit for a long time because they're in Delaware and they're close. And he was like, yeah, down the street the Hercules company, and that's you know, we sell to them all the time.

Yeah.

So yeah, I thought it was an interesting little thing about Hercules powder and everything like that, and how it's all interconnected with them absolutely is.

So now we're getting back to the whole glitter conversation and really and truly the process right and how it's used to what levels, to what depths. So now we get this article pulled up from PFFC online. Glitters progress, shapes, sizes, textual effects and applications grew steadily. Cuts originally were square, but Rushman found that a hexagon shape was more pleasing to the eye and left less scrap and waste For sizes and shapes. A large cut produced a lively mini

I have no idea.

Okay, casts, extruded, injected, molded, laminated, or incorporated in basic raw materials. During the nineteen sixties, son Henry W. Rushman joined Meadowbrook Inventions, working his way up to the Chief operating officer in charge of production or product development, purchasing and sales. The product development he would source, for example, the most brilliant and weather resistant aluminum and polyester, and would work with customers to design glitter for each customer's process.

So he is the junior and he's the one that got fired.

Well, no, this is the daddy.

No, this is the junior that did this. They just said rush Sun Henry. So this is Henry, the junior son Rushman. Yeah, okay, this is the junior and he took over and so he actually was helping create and invent all of these things, and then he got fired as COO from the company after he had already made it to this point, when he got it to the five tons per day. Yeah, so he was like really manufacturing all of this. And actually this article is co

Oh wow, I didn't realize that.

Yeah, So this is it's a paper trail, so no one could find any information about who, who or what. Nobody to respond back, and they found this one random article and they reached out to the guy and they actually interviewed him that actually wrote this article with him and he's like, well, I guess I'll give him a call. He's a buddy of mine, and we'll see, you know what he says, and sure is shit. He was like, you know what, come on out, come on out to

The cattle farm that the castle happens to be a massive glitter manufacturer.

St So the siblings that all don't get along all live on the same except in different pockets of it because it's like one hundred and twenty five acres and split into two on this railroad situation. And so he said, come on out, come check it out and come look at you know, come look out, and I'll tell you all about it, which hasn't been done in the history of their company. It's been pretty you know, they haven't been as crazy as glitter X, but they also haven't

Well, fuck it. They fired him.

They did. They fired him thirty years ago. And he was like, you know what, it's about time. And in the video itself, when you watch it, he is taking them around to just that. He didn't even bring them inside the facility because technically he can't even go inside the facility on the property that he co owns with them. By the way, and as soon as there was word that potentially he was driving around with these people, he was met by one of his siblings and they were like, uh uh.

Was that the sibling or a security guard.

It was a female and I think it was the I think it was a sister. Wow, So it was she was like absolutely not. You gotta leave. You gotta shut off the cameras, like we're not doing any of this. You can't let them see any of this and all this crap and all you see from the outsides. Honestly, it looks like a farm, but it looks like farms and old buildings with uh tarp covered stuff, and that's it. You can't see anything. It doesn't even look like it's up and running. And he even says in it he's like,

Sparked family controversy.

It fueled the flames even more so. Yeah, so this paper is written by him.

Fuck him, not him, your family, because like, this guy took this company, grew it to be a multi billion dollar a year company, not just the industry itself, the company he developed holographic, which we're gonna talk about here in a minute. He himself, not his team. He developed holographic glitter, which changed the entire game, only for his siblings to basically rip it all out from under him, fire him, and then tell him that he can't even go into the buildings that he helped build.

Yeah, fuck them, Yeah, because they also he also helped co create with his dad the screening process as well, exactly. And so there's a whole bunch of stuff that they created that they still use today. But when I looked into even more about his siblings, from what I can tell, they are stupid.

There's some spiteful bitch as well.

So they're like dumb, dumb. They don't understand any of the actual chemistry or any of this stuff that it goes into the glitter and they don't understand business. They have driven this business into the ground. That's why glitter X is so prominent because they were their competitors. But now they don't hardly make anything compared to when they did in nineteen seventy.

I just heard a statistic and there's very few exceptions to this rule. And there's so few exceptions that that's why we still know these names today. But if you have somebody who grows an empire and then tries to leave it to their children two to three generations max. Before all of them are bankrupt, because that's what happens with NEPO babies, right And I'm not saying that that

Yeah.

So their mama data in two thousand and nine at ninety one. Yeah, and because the daddy died honestly, like way's back, yeah, way way back and stuff, and so the land dispute, the factory dispute, and all this stuff comes down to when the mama died yep. And so pretty much the glitter industry where the Glitter Group with this, this whole thing is going to be dead probably in the next like twenty years, and Glitterax is going to still be thriving. So then there's going to be only one company.

The only the only examples where this doesn't happen is if the CEO or whatever only has one child. And they only have one child, and so it's like there's no disputes, like it's getting handed down. You got born into this industry whatever, But then you also have to groom this kid to take this position when the time comes, Oh, I want to go and be a lawyer. That's cute. We need you, the family needs you to be COO of this company when you turn thirty five. So like

You have no option. You're literally bred to do this.

You literally can only marry your second cousin at most because we got to keep this money in house. All of us are doing banking. Yeah, and that's like there's only a few examples. And like the big magnates whose kids are still like their great grandchildren are still running it. The Waltons, I'm sorry, grandson Waltson. I know you think you want to go be a veterinarian. We run Walmart fucking period, and we're not letting you detract from the family.

But cut to I can't find how glitter X acquired glitter Like, I can't find how they were able to take it and manufacture they're glitter versus this company's glitter. Because for twenty years, give or take, we'll say a little bit less, the family, the Rushman family, were the glitter people. Then suddenly sixty three happens and glitter X is born. Now, how in the hell did the Glitterax be born? I can't find that. I haven't found it.

I think stold it. Excuse me, just seeing how the siblings are so shitty to each other, mm hmm. I have a weird sneaking suspicion that one of the siblings sold the not the patent, sold the information, which is why they're so secretive to this day.

Right, Yeah, I really do think that something was not just.

Them, your boy Baboo and all of them. They are so secretive because they know how they got the intel.

Yeah, I really do think that they something happened along lines this whole family's dispute somehow destroyed their glitter industry, but then that burst this whole other conglomerate of glitter, so.

Which maybe that has something to do with the blood for you between the family.

Right, I mean, I could see it. There's a lot of there's a lot of stuff going on with it. What's interesting is none of the other siblings have actually done any interviews or anything period. You can't find really you can see who they are. You can see some of the stuff because the guy that supposedly took over, now I don't know if this is the same person, but it said that it was. He has like three DUI's and he had like two arrest things on it.

Or is that the person that sold the information to the Indian dudes to get himself a little bit of money to fight some cases.

You know, I don't know. But back to this article that the junior wrote. Mm hmm, this is his information that he was able to at least tell, so cut to.

We're talking about in the nineteen seventies they were able to produce five tons per day, and they've gone so much more than that and then ran to the ground. Glitter has many uses. The first industrial uses were greeting cards, followed by raised printing and screen printing. Fiberglass motor boat

M h.

That is that's fucking insane that that's the level that they can tell if this is a fraudulent strat of areus or not.

It's also in money, very much.

So if anybody's noticed when you look at the US dollar bill from the nineteen eighties and you look at a U or just one hundred dollars bill, it's a prime example. One hundred dollars bill from the eighties and a hundred dollars bill from now, one of them are a lot more colorful that would be glitter.

And just think about how much money they made off of that money we got to because it's not just US, so it's globally.

That they've so many countries dollar bills are now using this. So not only did they secure a government contract with the US Treasury Department, they secured it with the European Union for the Euro. They secured it with the British for their pound.

Then you cut back to the article about them, how they talked about how they made it and how small it is and all of that stuff, and then think about the money itself and how tiny that little pieces and how in the strip. I mean, it makes sense why glitter X is like psycho level Nazi status over here when it comes to the glitter, because I believe that GLITTERAX holds the only actual thing for the money.

So remember Rush Hour, Remember how they burned one hundred dollar bill and they said, because of the dies, this thing is supposed to burn black or it's supposed to burn red. And that's how you know it's a counterfeit dollar. You remember that same? Yeah, Nah, dude, it's about the fucking glitter. And I know personally so many dudes that tried that method because they saw that on a movie and basically just burned one hundred dollars. It's because they're idiots.

Wow.

So moving on here. So Meadowbrooks machine precision cut other particles for other uses, often on government contracts. Among the products included anti radar chaff, slivers of zirconium to control the burn of solid rocket fuel. Yes, we are talking about these hercules rockets. We are talking about the rocket fuel itself, there's zirconium that they're cutting. Because it is a glitter manufacturing company, everything they produce is classified as glitter.

It's shiny, so itcounts.

Glitter is what put rockets in the sky, oddly enough, And the iron fibers for airplane brake shoes, yeah, and for the record, also breaks shoes that you find on cars. Have you ever notice those little sparkly bits in your in your brake pads that would be glitter? Essentially by definition it's not actually it's not Arts and crafts glitter, but because it came from the same manufacturing company that glitter is made from, it's also classified as glitter anyway.

I think that they gave over that. I think they sold that technology to glitter X.

Maybe very possibly. He also developed the first holographic glitter laminations with metallized cellulose acetate and later polyester as the substrates which can biodegrade. The future sees a push to produce biodegradable glitter to meet environmental objections to PVC substrates. We'll get to that in a bit. Today, glitter is a worldwide commodity product with boundless applications. Over twenty thousand varieties are manufactured by multiple firms worldwide in different colors, sizes,

I think so too. I think the military purchaseway more.

To be honest with you, but I feel like a lot of these purchases go under the radar, and so therefore they can't be talked about. You know. Henry F. And Henry W. Rushman inventions and development of modern glitter keeps putting smiles on faces around the world, fulfilling a life's desire to leave this earth a little better than

Yep, I feel like you needed to hear this. You feel justified.

I don't need to be justified to know that I'm right on this. Well, this is crazy.

I feel like you know. Here, this is a real breakdown of why it's so fucking sticky and on everything.

So glitter.

I hate glitter so fucking this actually shows us, like a I like this article because it shows the depictions of actually what it's talking about, because I'm a picture person.

Yeah, so, how is glitter made? We already kind of talked about some of it, but let's break it down a little bit further here. Glitter is composed of at least three layers. At least three layers we heard earlier it was like two hundred and seventy layers depending on the type of glitter. But number one is a thin layer of polymer that's a bit like cling wrap. Number two is a reflective aluminum layer, and then the third would be a threein transparent sealant. The initial plastic layer

But then we can't go into glitter X.

We can't, right, right, right, because the way that it's made is so thick. It's like bro a grinder or a cutting machine could do.

But all right, maybe they're doing other shit with it. Maybe it's not in a different way.

That's what I believe. Honestly, I don't believe that. It's because I am of the belief that glitter is a byproduct of all of the other applications and the things that are being made. Remember, the first time it was discovered was the particulates that came off of a Micah washer in the development of the nuclear bomb. The glitter wasn't the secret, right, It's not like he would have and at that time Rushman would have told the people, listen, you can't be in the room when we are making

I don't think at this point that we can get rid of it because it's used in so many applications globally that this at this point, this is probably the most toxic thing that we've had that we've ever introduced into this.

So remember hearing about trash island in the Pacific Ocean.

Yeah, and the kid that actually created that cool thing that cleans it up.

Yes, And so the trash island itself has produced an immeasurable amount of microplastics because these plastics over time, Yes, they're safe for human consumption. Right now, you're drinking a out of a Gatoray bottle. That plastic is safe quote unquote quote unquote to hold human human ingestibles. Okay, cool. If you leave that bottle in the salty ocean under the sun for months and months and years and years, eventually, at a molecular level, it's going to start break down.

That is stropham.

As much as you hate styrophoam, I hate glitter. Yeah.

Yeah, I mean that both are equally terrible for the environment. I'll say that I do love liltter for my own purposes, but I can recognize that it's terrible for the environment, which I am not all about foluting, so.

But my point is that all of these microplastics eventually make their way to the ocean, and even if they didn't go to the ocean as microplastics, they become that once they're there. And the same concept that they just talked about how the fish are eating them, we eat the fish and or they can evaporated into the clouds and they get rained. And these microplasts are so small they will get picked up with the water particles that are evaporating into the sky to make rain clouds. It's the same ship.

But it's already in the clouds.

Oh, we're going to get to that in a moment.

It's already in the clouds. So this kind of goes into what they're doing. So this is the cellulose. This is what I was talking about. The naturally occurring plant polymer has been shown to be a good material for making biodegraable glitter, replacing the pet polymer layer. Unfortunately, the aluminum coating and pigments that are used to make litter shiny and colorful are still the problem. A new clinic glatter is being developed by researchers at a University of Skatchuwanchkin, Saskatchewan.

Ten to the ninth power nanometers.

Yeah, one meter wow, So I'll sum that whole thing up. So what they what the problem is is that the aluminium and the colors is what's becoming toxic to the environment, and so they're having a hard time because it's interesting the little particles are they're holding bacteria on the aluminum, which is infecting other things as well. There's a there's tons of articles. If you really care that much to go read into it. It's it's a lot, but.

Essentially glitter is really detrimental for the environment and for your health.

So it said cellulos is. So they have a little diagram it said cellulos is one of the several polymers in trees. It can be harvested and converted into nanocrystals which reflect different wavelengths of light and appere colored.

Right, which is you know interesting, which that is a natural quote unquote of glitter. However, that's not the issue. It's not the color, like the light fraction within the crystals themselves. It's like you said, it's the coloring in the aluminium that they are using it with that's making it bad.

So they found so unfortunately, as right now, they have found that both pet based glitter and the cellular space glitter still impacted the meso mesochromis in.

Meso cosm, meso cosm.

Yeah. The experiment of the study the outdoor environment in a controlled indoor setting, they noticed that biodegrable glitter did break down in the experiment, but it also served as a food source for organisms, not unexpected because because that's the point of biodegradable material, and this led to greater growth of unwanted species. While the nanocellulose based glitter is an improvement from the pet glitter that takes thousands of

It's make metal resistant bacterias.

Well, they helped grow some of the microorganisms, and so it caused the bad guys to be able to be like, yeah, let's fucking go supercharged the viruses. Yeah, and so they weren't able so far. They've found a few other things as of last year that might be potentially what they're going to be doing. Unfortunately, both sets as of right now impact the environment in different ways. I would wager to say that right now, I think the PET actually

So microplastics are less detrimental in the short term than a supercharged virus that they still don't know how to stop.

Yeah, bacteria. Yeah, So it's it's interesting what they're trying to do right now. And so this is just it's just in a quick article that talks about the different types of glitter, so real quick.

Also, we're going to get to the edible glitter conversation here in a moment, but just I did want to read at least this one part It says is glitter edible. While crafting glitter is generally labeled non toxic, it doesn't mean you should eat it. Actually don't. Just don't, not even the cellulose or cellulose nanoparticle glitter. But there are ways to make your own edible glitter using gelatin and edible polymer as the polymer based a metallic food coloring

Yeah, it's a lot more difficult than you can then you think about it. So this article is actually the This is from conspiracy Data dot com and this is where you can go and watch the video as well, and this kind of breaks down different aspects of the video where they interview Henry the Junior. And so these are the theories, the common theories behind who's buying all of the glitter.

Right, And that's the thing, because they won't answer. It's all speculation.

So we know that some companies are and some aren't, but it's it's one of those things of nobody knows for sure how much glitter is being bought, shipped and sold all over the world and for how many applications there are, so we at least know the military has that, the automotive industry does, the voting industry, Cosmic has confirmed. Edible is a confirmation.

But because that New York Times article, because that interview where the woman was like, oh, I can't answer that, and like, well, if I saw it, what I know it's glitter, I mean you'd see something, but like I can't say I can't really say much about it, like that, that's too hard.

That's sparked everything. And then the way that he was though, Bubba was Babba Bubba. Yeah, the way that he was and so kind of weird about stuff, it kind of created even more lore. So yeah, the first thing, it says the military. Some suggest that glitter can be used in stealth technology to deflect radar and camouflage coatings for vehicles and equipment. Others believe that it can be deployed

Yeah, like since the fifties they started putting glitter in toothpaste to make it more appealing.

I didn't realize that actually until he said that. So it talks about glitter like particles to enhance visual appeal of marketing biodegradable biodegradable alternatives.

So while most use biodegradable alternatives, some formulations may involve real glitter like microplastics in toothpaste.

Yeah, I think is interesting. The next one.

Covert surveillance or espionage.

Uh huh.

So some theorists propose that glitter is used in tracking devices or espionage operations. I could see it, honestly. Given its small size, glitter could theoretically serve as a covert marker or tracking material in sensitive operations. M hm, I very well could. Yeah, very well could. Big tech glitter may pay they play a role in microchip manufacturing or screen technology. I personally believe that it is same. The

This is such a crazy thing, but go ahead.

Glitter's reflective properties make it an interesting candidate for atmospheric experiments. Some speculate that glitter could be used in cloud seating to manipulate we weather patterns by reflecting sunlight or influencing precipitation.

I found it, So I don't know how much truth is in this article, but I found an article that was talking about cloud seating and how they use it as well to make prettier clouds.

I can believe that to make.

Shinier clouds, to have people less h less question what's going on. They were kind of like, oh, well, look at those pretty fluffy, big white clouds that shimmer and shine.

So we know for a fact that they make it rain once a week in Dubai from cloud seating. They've been very open about this four years as a matter of fact. And seeing is the amount of money that the Dubai that they spend in Dubai to make it just rain, it would stand to reason that the ruling power would also be like, you know what, threw some glitter in that bitch too. We're not just gonna have clouds, We're gonna have the best clouds.

So when we talk about Mars, we're going to talk about more about glitter application, and then I'll come back. I'll circle back to the atmospheric experiments and my thoughts on all of this.

So yep, Rocket fuel. Certain compounds and rocket propellants use metallic flakes similar to glitter. And actually it's not just similar to glitter. By definition from the company, it is glitter. So there's that. Some believe the secrecy could be tied to aerospace technology and classified military projects. I have to agree. Yeah, And we've already talked about why there's so much secrecy the environmental questions. Does it solve the glitter mystery? I mean, who really knows, you know?

Yeah, So that's what I wanted to read from this. Okay, so this is about why the military is buying glitter.

Yeah, like specifically the military, and we kind of talked about a few of the reasons behind it. But let's go a little deeper on this one. So why is the military buying glitter? Revealing the science behind the sparkle. The military isn't buying glitter to decorate helmets or throw festive parties. The primary reason the military is buying glitter or more accurately, glitter like substances is for the use in training and operational applications of advanced optics and sensors.

So, I mean, it's kind of all ties back though to the theories and what they're doing, but this is like literally stating what they're using it for absolutely, So this is not a speculation any longer. This is no this is what we're using this for, which all ties into hercules, and it ties into Doupont, it ties into Manhattan, it ties into all of these things of what glitter has been used for.

And also why I believe like glitter and why I also believe there's so much secrecy around the process and around these companies.

Yeah, because it's twenty thousand different types, right, and so if you're talking about that it's a tracer type or that it's douing different things, and it's being able to be used in so many applications, you don't want anybody to knowing what type of glitter is being used in aerospace stuff. Absolutely, but even though they're all using it, so they're being sold to everybody. But like it's fine, I.

Mean, how do you make the most money possible by funding both sides of whatever? The argument is?

Uh huh.

So Calibrating and testing optical sensors Another significant use is in the calibrating and testing optical sensors. These sensors are used in various military applications, including surveillance, targeting, and navigation. By shining light onto a surface covered with reflective particles, researchers can assess the sensor's ability to detect and measure light accurately. The specific light scattering properties of the glitter allow for precise calibration and ensure that the sensor perform

This technique uses lasers to create holograms of fluid flows, allowing researchers to study three dimensional structures of the flow in detail, which is interesting when you think about quantum and them doing different things with that as well.

And all of that comes from Rushman Junior, who is the first to develop holographic glitter. Without him, this wouldn't be a thing.

Yeah, it's crazy how many applications he allowed by or he helped create because of his one thing.

Indeed, so dispelling the myths, it's not all fun and games. It's important to understand that the military's use of glitter quote unquote is not frivolous. It's a serious scientific endeavor with the goal of improving military technology and protecting national security. The particulars the particles used are carefully selected and engineered for specific purposes, and their use is governed by strict regulations and safety protocols. The image of soldiers covered in

We're gonna have to zoom it in.

I'm gonna try and try it. There we go here. So glitter quote unquote is used in this context of atmospheric science in two distinct ways. Planetary geoengineering, which scientists have proposed using engineered glitter like metallic particles or nanoorods to warm the atmosphere of Mars and potentially make it habitable.

Yes, so I have an entire article next all about this.

That's the wildest fucking shit.

Yeah, I'm I'm really excited to read it.

Next is earth observation. The term is used in the name of the light ar technique glitter, which uses glimpse of light ar images through the empty regions of clouds to measure their base height. Sun glitter or ocean glint patterns, reflections of the sun off the water, are also analyzed to study ocean surface roughness and wave patterns. They're using glitter in the clouds to be able to gauge weather better.

Yes, and they also have potentially used it to help change weather patterns as well because they're trying to reflect and get more sun off of it.

So you want to read more into this, you want.

To go, I actually have an article on this. So the glitter though, is the glint analysis, So it uses the visual patterns of sunlight reflecting off the ocean surface and has been used by scientists for decades to derive statistical models for ocean waves, slopes, and surface roughness. The satellites and aircraft cameras are used to capture these glint patterns in extract valuable data from their Earth's surface. When I looked in more of that, it said that they

So so once again, as we're talking about microplastics in our water, in the clouds, all these things. If you are curious, look up the method the glitter method of light r and by that it's not spelled a certain way g l I T t R. They are currently using this in lightar to detect weather and alter it. This is not a conspiracy theory. This is something that they have absolutely confirmed that they are doing with glitter.

It's funny because they said, like you could do a home experiment for surface tension, adding dish soap to water with glitter uses the glitter to rapidly move away the soap breaks down on the surface tensioning that. Yeah.

No, but this you do with pepper.

By the way, it ties back though to the whole flat earth conversation. What yeah, because they are if you look at it and they talk about it, they're using it to do this. So the slope of the curvature and stuff, and so when it like disperses, it's doing the curvature of the earth and stuff. There's like a whole conversation about how it turned tied into this or is it just flat period and the glitter just goes on forever.

If that was the case, then all the glitter would be literally just around the ice wall and Antarctica. And that's just not a coun you know, because how much oil slick has been dropped into the ocean to break up that surface tension. If you've ever done that experiment for the record, you don't have to use glitter. You could crack fresh black pepper into a bowl of water and then drop one drop of dish soap into it

Anyway, So that it came and came up, and I was like, oh, flat Earth again, man, Flat Earth really ties into that conversation, ties into like damn near every conspiracy. I swear to.

You, they find ways to connect it. I swear.

So this is articles from design boom, and this is actually it, says science says. Scientists say man made glitter particles can warm Mars and make it habitable like Earth. And I couldn't believe when I read that. I was no way that they're going to use glitter. But they are.

But that's not going to make an atmosphere happen that will adjust the temperature, so.

Glitter dust particles can produce a greenhouse effect on Mars. Scientists at Northwestern University, the University of Chicago, Chicago, and the University of Central Florida have proposed manufacturing glitter like particles using soil from Mars and launching them into an atmosphere to warm the red planet and make it habitable

Glitter is not only killing our planet, but it's going to be our savior from Mars. And that's nobody's looking any drawbacks. Okay, but that sentence.

It can raise the temperature, And then you think about the green house effect and about the conversation and the global warming and everything. Could it potentially be that, yes, we have also industries that are impacting in the carbon footprint and all this stuff. Could it actually be the amount of glitter that we've used over the last you know, a couple decades and it's been actually raising our green it's actually changing our entire atmosphere.

So people have been thinking it's the nuclear bombs we've been testing. No, no, No, is the glitter that was made from the nuclear bomb testing.

Honestly, the more I was reading into this, the more I'm actually thinking that this is the cost, Like this is the primary cause, because they're still using this every day.

Can we stop buying glitter people every day, there's stop the glitter makeup, Stop stop buying cars with glitter and the paint. Stop doing all this shit.

But see it's in everything though, that's the problem. If they're using this in cloud seating, and we know for a fact that they're cloud seating all over the world, yeah, just that alone. And if they're putting it in an atmosphere to try to draw more light down, that means that it's heating up our atmosphere matter, and so that it's literally an everything at this point, including our bodies. We're ingesting it, we're inhaling it, all of this stuff.

Okay, I didn't know it was going to that level. Ravingly, I'm gonna be honest with you.

I've been waiting the entire time to get to this article because I have been chomping at the bit for this one, because you know, I read a lot about the environment and stuff, and so my degree is environmental sustainability. Yeah, is one of my parts of my degree. And I am like what to once I started reading into the actual breakdown and how long it takes to break down and what is it doing and how they're trying to

I'm not happy with the things you're saying right now, although sorry, I mean like I'm.

Happy that or my thought process is going there and it does it make sense.

Oh no, No, I'm not unhappy with it because I think that you're wrong. I'm unhappy because they fucked us and now they're selling it to us and people are so excited to get all glittered up and buy shit with glitter on it and all these things. They literally have sold us what is killing us, and they're making billions a year from it, and still so many people are just like yes, more gladder, Like nobody is recognizing that this is a really bad.

Thing, but because no one has talked about it. The only reason why it was even talked about was because of the twenty eighteen article and then it disappeared, and tell the resurgence. I think it was like last year or the year before from the TikTok guy that was like, hey,

Oh? God, Okay, all right, let's keep going into it.

Then, so this is talking about So before the published study, the researchers said that the dust on Mars is rich with iron and aluminum, as gathered by rovers in NASA's curiosity. While this material can't trap heat on its own, the scientists have hypothesized that if these particles can be engineered to have different shapes and compositions, they may be able to produce a natural greenhouse effect on the red planet's

I mean, I understand that concept, but holy shit. Yeah, So now reflective nanoods for a habitable Mars. You may read this one. So once the engineers fabricate these glitter like reflective nano rods from Martian soil, the launches taking place via ground based fountains. The launches, the launching takes place via ground based fountains. They're talking about it basically causing a dust bowl on Mars from its own soil to just shoot shit into the air and create Okay, that's a sing.

So the glitter like so they're not technically a guess glitter, but if you look at the definition of glitter, everything is glitter underneath the the you know. So they want to make the little hexagons, that's what they want.

But that's the thing they're talking about manufacturing.

These from the material of Mars. That way they could take it back to Mars and pretty much make a glitter bomb in swirls to inject it up into the atmosphere.

And be honest with you, if Elon gets there first he will, which I believe you will. He'll just manufacture the materials there and he won't have to take Martian soil to Earth to manufacture this to bring it back. They'll just do all the research and development there.

And I think the AI robots honestly there. Yeah, until that he can get it to stabilize.

So these scientists picture these tools being propelled to Mars, to the surface of Mars, where the dust particles will be released and circulated around the planet. These particles would then reflect the incoming sunlight onto the surface of the red planet until it warms and becomes livable enough for people.

Says, Wow, So I don't know if are glitter itself is causing an issue, but the way that it talks.

About the way they're talking about it, I see your reasoning.

Yeah, So the way that they cut it hint everything else. And they're talking about using cloud seating and talking about using it in the planes when they're firing off, you know, to disrupt the laser to the radar and stuff, and how it blankets He showed a picture of how it blanketed the sky and all of this, Like, what if there's so much glitter that has been pretty much pumped out into the atmosphere that it's causing a change in our actual you know, heating situation that's going on.

So and I could see this going a twofold, right, So they found ice on Mars. They know that at least water at one time was on Mars, and the reason by that would be the rust oxide or the iron oxide that we would call rust that makes the planet so red. So if you were hypothetically to warm up the planet to some type of degree where water is unfrozen, you could have pools of water start to form on the surface of Mars, which is all you realistically need to have life start.

But they've already found life though. If you actually read into NASA finding the microorganisms, they.

Found signs of life. They haven't found any living microorganisms there, but they found signs that at one time MICUs lived here.

They found one.

They did, they did.

You're right, you're right, they found one. Oh, yes, they have one. So so technically yes, Now I'm not obviously a scientist, so if I get it wrong and people want to, you know, go crazy in the comments.

But I mean whatever, there's people that believe the space is fake, and I get that.

This just makes sense to me though, that this could be one of the one of the leading causes to having our environmental issues because we can't control it, and once it's out and it's been out for decades, it's kind of just circulating and just boooo, whow.

I this is mind blowing honestly. Now, all right, we have covered so many different aspects of the glitter industry. Now we're gonna talk about edible glitter, lust or dust, whatever you want to call it. You've seen the tiktoks of these drinks that have the swirls of glitter, and it makes people lose their shit because it's such a

Let's learn together, y'all, glitter also known as luster, does can make a regular drink look pretty extraordinary. Yeah, we love shiny things. But when you try that glitter lata or green beer during Saint Patrick's Day, have you asked what edible glitter is and what is made of There are two forms of glitter, first edible for food and

Real quick before the video continues. The edible glitter ingredients are sugar, which we talked about. Sometimes sugar crystals can be used as a form of their own glitter. Think of like a cupcake that you'll see that has like super sparkly chunks of sugar uses topping. Okay, that's the thing. Cornstarch very similar in that regard acacia, which is Arabic gum, and sometimes that could be used in this regard color additives, okay, fair enough. And mica powder pigments. This would be the

Rock, Yeah, no, that can withstand. That can get like made for an atomic bomb if it. Yeah, yeah, this is the edible. And then I just want to say the color additives can be anything, period, very much. It is a blanket term. Please please please read into it.

Yep, that red dye forty, that yellow number five, all the things, all the things. One, let's continue. I just want to stop and make sure he read that list off first, but let's continue.

All FDA approved and safe to consume. But even Baker's mixologists recommend using it once in a while in small amounts. It adds no additional flavor to your drink, but a beautiful, shimmery squirrel adds a wild factor that will be noticeable in your social media accounts.

Okay, so even the experts, the FDA approves it as safe to consume. For the record, I don't know how many of you have ever read into what the FDA approves and considers safe for edible for use, for instance, dog food. Did you know that all dog food by law in the United States of America has to be safe for human consumption because of the Great Depression.

I want people to actually go to the website. So the FDA puts out a website that has all the ingredients that they allow in food. It's like about sixty someone pages. I've actually printed it out and read through it. The amount of shit that is on this list. Yeah, the amount of bugs, Yeah that is on this list is insane.

Well that's natural, Raven, that's natural.

There's so many things though that you read and it's like, wait what and then you look at all the other countries that have banned so much stuff. But to your point, though, even this video is saying you should only consume this every now and again because it's not safe. Like it's not safe at all.

But they claim that it's safe and in the same breath, we'll tell you only use it once in a while. Well why why, mister government official with the FDA. If it's safe, then what difference does it make. So let's talk about that a little deeper, shall we? All right on screen, right now, we have an article, So what is edible glitter? And we already talked about some of it, Like you know, it's used in the drinks and the cupcakes and the things and the stuff. So is it

Because they both have aluminium in them.

We'll get to it. Because the edible doesn't have aluminum.

Mica, oh, it should have aluminum.

But like, okay, mica can also be used as a glitter substitute. Remember that was the first glitter.

Yeah, I know so.

But even still, even if you're eating particle sized aluminum, you're gonna pass it through your body and it's probably not gonna cut anything and it's not gonna cause any real issues. But the reason why they're saying not to eat a lot of it is essentially because it will cause a massive glitter constantpation. You'll let get a glitter impaction. Essentially, Believe it or not, the same thing will happen if you eat a bunch of mica glitter, i e. Edible glitter.

Just don't eat it, don't use it in anything. Guys.

Edible glitter, on the other hand, is specifically designed to be consumed. It is made from food great ingredients that are digestible and meet safety standards set by the regulatory agencies such as the FDA and the US or I'm sorry, in the US. These ingredients ensure that the edible glitter is non toxic, digestible, and safe to eat. So that

Yeah, is a sugar. It's a type of sugar. It's just a different type of structure.

One's lab grown, one's grown from the ground kind of thing. These actors based for the glitter particles, giving them structure and allowing them to stick to food. I e. You remember how we were talking about how it's the aluminum and the plastic and then the cealant. Yeah, the sugar is being used as the sealant for the mica. Okay, Food safe colorants like yellow number five, Red forty, and blue two are FDA approof for food and give the

I just want people to understand though that, Like if you look at the back of a ton of food products in the store, including all the things that we give kids a lot. It has all of that in there, and then look into what it does to your body. Yeah, it's crazy. And then people look at you like you're psychotic when you refuse to do stuff. So I actually

So just so we're all on the same page here, the sugar doesn't do the glittery thing. It gives them structure and allows them to stick to food. The colorants do not make the glittery thing happen. They give it its color. Starches, corn starch, and or other starches can be used to help glitter maintain its structure. Once again, the starches are not being used as the glittery component. All of the things that I just listed. The only thing that does the sparkly shit is the mica, which

Yeah.

And so all these other things about the edible glitter and how it's so safe, that's all it actually is. So edible glitter is edible glitter just microplastics. We've already talked a good bit about the microplastics with glitter. What are microplastics? Why edible glitter is not made of plastic? Cool cool cool is edible glitter FDA approved? We just talked about that. All the things we listed are apparently FDA approved. But again, please go look at all the

Yeah, it's pretty wild. Honestly.

This is what we're using in glitter, y'all. So is micah good for your health?

Glitter?

Well, technically I'm not even gonna use that term, Like edible glitter is. It's clearly not meant to be edible. But they're just saying that, like, oh, it's fine, it'll be fine, just don't use a lot of it. But like, you're fine, what that's not how edible shit works. You're not gonna tell me like, oh, steak is fine, just don't eat like a lot of it, Like steak's cool. No, that's good for you. It's good things anyway anyway, So

I think that this is a really interesting, overall, I don't know overall thing that's impacting us in so many ways, and that it's one of those things that most people don't know about, most people don't talk about. Hell, I knew about it, and I still didn't even really know about it until I looked into it. I think that it's changing us, and it's impacting our health, and it's impacting our environment, and I think it's going to impact the whole Mars conversation.

I didn't even know that was a talking point until this. This is bullshit.

I know.

There's so many things well, and that's the thing though, when it comes to science and all of these things being created in us throughout time, like nobody really thinks about where we get shit from. And I'm one of those people too. Sometimes though, I sit there and I'll be like, look randomly looking at something, how did this get developed? Who thought of this? And once you start breaking things down and you really start looking at well,

Yeah. So, so for the record, the way that you just broke that down is the same way that so many conspiracy theories come to light. Rights And I don't mean to make it sound colloquial, it's like, well, we're just asking questions. But no, no, no, Realistically, that is where these theories come from, and that is how this research starts. You see something that you don't fully understand and you just think, wait, why is this that way? How did this become this thing? Why do I believe

Mm hmm. What are your thoughts on the glitter situation.

I think that it is crazy to look at the glitter industry as a whole and to see where it began before I started doing this research. If you would have told me that glitter became a thing because a dude from Kodak Photography got hired by the US government to work for the Manhattan Project, which later was figured out by Kodak for other reasons. Weird circle of events there, and then he went on to start a company that we now know as just the Creators of Glitter, and

Military I think is the biggest buyers of glitter.

I would believe that.

I believe one hundred percent. I think next in line would be cosmetics, and then after that would be food. But I personally believe that the glitter industry is buying, or in the military industry, is buying, all of.

The glitter and then to cut to then to cut to microplastics and that effect and how all this glitter eventually makes its way to the ocean. It's already in micro form, so you're not even having to make much distinction here. And then the microplastics that are going into our oceans, going into our clouds. They are using it to control weather and track weather, which again they confirmed,

Of the universe. Of the universe is not just now of Earth. Now, it's going to be the universe. Because also you have to think it's in It's probably used in the satellites. It's all used in the ships because of the reflecting and everything else that is used for if you believe in space. For you know Artemis too, that's going to be launching this year, it could be potentially used in all of that. So it's not just here, it's everywhere now like it's it's literally a universal situation happening.

My mind has thoroughly been blown ravenly. I am very happy that you brought this to the table. I mean, we've talked about doing a glitter episode for a good while now, but yeah, this, Uh, I honestly didn't think it was going to go to this direction and to this depth and have so many other can as into so many different conspiratorial conversations. This is a wild one.

Well, what do you guys think? Do you think that glitter is a true conspiracy? Do you think it's going to be used in Mars? Do you think it's impacting our Greenhouse missions? Do you think it's impacting us? What do you think about the glitter and this whole crazy turn of events and situation. When it comes to it, we.

Want to hear from you good cult members. Let us know in the comments. But before we give our sendoff, we also want to let you know about something else that is very shiny but also very good.
