Did the U.S. Navy really make a ship disappear in 1943?
I took the Philadelphia Experiment apart claim by claim: where the story originated, how it changed over time, what the historical record actually supports, and which pieces collapse under scrutiny.
The interesting part wasn’t simply whether the conspiracy was “true” or “false.” It was seeing how a story can accumulate apparent evidence through repetition, source dependence, and increasingly elaborate retellings.
I turned the research into a full Facthread case study: The Philadelphia Experiment: Anatomy of a Conspiracy.
Six major components. Source provenance. Alternative explanations. Component-by-component verdicts. No manufactured certainty.
Sometimes the history of a claim is more interesting than the claim itself.

Another Kajabi project wrapped up! 🎉
We've noticed a common challenge across many of our recent projects: clients have a growing number of courses, but making them easy to browse isn't always straightforward.
Kajabi doesn't offer advanced course filtering out of the box, so for DanceProfessor, we built a custom solution.
It took quite a bit of time on both the design and development sides, but the result was worth it. The client is happy, and visitors can now easily find exactly what they're looking for.
Sometimes the most challenging features are the ones that make the experience feel the simplest.
I took the face off the brand.
A square block on a shoulder bar. One arch for legs. No eyes, no smile, no pose.
Then I cut the wordmark down to EDICAT and let a single hard light do the rest.
Discipline isn’t a performance. It’s a stance.
this is such strong work & a brilliant concept to build, kudos to you!
Web3, but make it award-worthy! 🔥☯️
Our website for Daoism Systems just collected 9 awards:
Awwwards x1 · Orpetron x3 · FWA x1 · CSSDA x4
Daoism Systems is a web3 venture studio. We built the website around the Bagua, the eight trigrams of Daoist thought. Particles react as you move, ambient sound fills the space, and every section follows an ancient map.

More awards coming soon! 🤘🎸
That's impressive😍
