What's up QAA listeners?
The fun games have begun.
I found a way to connect to the internet.
I'm sorry, boy.
Welcome listener to Premium Chapter 131 of the Q&Nan Anonymous podcast, the TimeCube episode.
As always, we are your hosts, Jake Rockatansky, Julianfield, and Travis Vue.
QAnon isn't the first, nor will it be the last.
conspiracy theory of everything. In 1997, a man named Gene Ray launched a website he called
TimeCube, laying out his jumbled and ambitious vision. The result? Dozens of listeners
writing in to make sure we podcast about their precious cube. Now, usually when we do something
like this, Jake has long called dibs. But this time, a new challenger appeared, Travis'
Vue, who eagerly asked to be the TimeCube guy. TimeCube. This may be hard to believe, but as the
internet started to mature about two decades ago, it was fairly difficult to find the deranged
thoughts of crinks. The 90s and early 2000s were the days before social media, as we know it today.
The most popular early forums, such as news groups and bulletin board services, were tightly
moderated. So if someone started posting some incoherent nonsense, they're often greeted with
the bandhammer. He misses those days so bad. It's almost like a cowboy looking back on the West
and being, the West is gone now.
Yeah, it used to be, you know, some 19-year-old nerd would just ban you because they found you irritating.
And no one would cry, you see your ship or anything like that.
They moved on with their life.
Yeah.
Back then, if you wanted to publish your unfiltered thoughts online about forbidden science or whatever,
you needed to construct your own website, which required a small amount of technical knowledge and personal stability.
That was enough to prevent most cranks from publishing their brain scrambling ideas.
But that barrier wasn't enough to stop a man named Otis Eugene Ray, the inventor of the TimeCube principle.
Gene Ray, as he was better known online, was an elderly former electrician from Georgia who claimed he had been working on his theory for decades.
Now, TimeCube was a baffling theory of everything that gained notoriety right before the Web 2.0 era.
At one point, it was synonymous with incomprehensible rambling and conspiracy theorizing, much in the same way.
that QAnon is today.
And it all started with a single text-heavy website.
Sometime in 1997, Gene Ray published the first iteration of TimeCube.com.
What that very first web page looked like may be lost the history forever.
However, the earliest version of the site was preserved by the Web Archive, and it dates back to June of 1998.
By the way, this entire episode and much of Internet history is only possible thanks to the Web Archive.
I think it might donate to that site after this because it really is a miracle of an organization.
The header for timecube.com back in 98 states in all caps in blue text,
nature's harmonic simultaneous forte time cube.
Next to these words is an animated GIF of a spinning cube labeled day.
That GIF also included four arrows to indicate the direction of the spin.
Below that were these words in red letters.
Earth has four simultaneous days with all.
Only one rotation.
Losing three days in each earth rotation has retarded your mentality to stupid and an education of evil.
You do not have the mind or education to envision nature's time cube.
Pretty aggressive.
It is.
The entire site was like a combination of advocating the theory, which is not comprehensible.
I don't even understand that even after studying it for many days.
But it also, combined with that, was constantly insulting the reader for their inability to understand.
Now, the words below that didn't really clear anything up.
It's in all caps, and it reads,
Three equator, four-corner Earth, time rotates 96 hours as a simultaneous four-day cube.
You were taught that the Earth has only one equator, as if the Earth was flat.
You were taught ignorance.
Creation has two sex poles and four-corner races of humans.
God is cornered as a queer, Gene Ray, Cubic.
Below that, there's even more text that goes on to really explain nothing.
If Earth stood still, it would have a midday, midnight, sunup, and sundown as four corners.
Each rotation of Earth has four middays, four midnights, four sunups, and four sundowns.
The 16 Space Times demonstrates cube proof of four full days simultaneously on Earth within one rotation.
The academia created one day Greenwich Time is bastardly queer and dooms future youth and nature to hell.
Ignorance of four-day harmonic cubit nature indicts humans as unfit to live on Earth.
Gene Ray, Cubic.
Below that, Gene Ray issues a challenge to anyone who disputes the time cube.
I will give $1,000 to any person who can disprove four days in each Earth rotation.
It's a pity that religious and academic word is a crime against nature.
and enslaves children.
Until word is cornered, all math is fiction.
At the bottom of the page, Gene Ray seems to explain why he believes that Greenwich Mean Time doesn't exist.
Greenwich Time is a lie.
Your midday is someone else's midnight, someone else's sun down and even someone else's sun up.
Do you know that time is a simultaneous four-corner square that rotates to a four-day time cube within one to 24-hour rotation of Earth?
You are educated, stupid, and unable to know nature's four-day time cube.
You can't get through a single sentence without calling someone, the R-word, or stupid, or queer.
It's incredible.
Yeah, this was accompanied by a bunch of diagrams, but again, that really failed to clear anything up, at least for me.
Below that, there are three hyperlinks, one of which leads to a separate website called Abovegod.com, which Gene Ray had also created.
Abovegod.com said this.
Christianity is poison forced upon children.
Nature's harmonic time cube creation reigns supreme.
Welcome to the site where time cube is above God.
God is ignorance.
Educators are stupid.
In one rotation of earth there are 24 hours of midnight, 24 hours of midday,
24 hours of sun up, 24 hours of sun down.
Human God can see only one quarter of each.
What's kind of fascinating about this is that he both hates,
It's religion, it seems, and science.
Like, he...
Yeah, right.
Fuck, this is literally, it says,
God is ignorance, educators are stupid.
And that's very uncommon to punch in both directions at once,
because who are you left with?
You're left with Gene Ray, the wisest man on earth.
Yeah, you're left with a Time Cube.
God on the left, educators on the right,
stuck in the middle with Gene.
TimeCube.com featured a public visitor counter,
which was typical of early websites.
The earliest iteration of the site shows only 222 hits a year after the site was created,
so at first it was getting less than a single visitor a year.
However, in 1999, the site was starting to be discovered,
and it boasted of over 60,000 hits in the first 10 months of that year.
By March of 2000, the website had over 290,000 visits.
Possibly in response to the site's growing popularity,
Jean Ray began adding more content to the page during these years, such as this.
Your own people will kill you to prevent this forbidden truth cube from ever being known.
Socrates was killed to eye truth from public.
One corner God is a fraud.
Are you afraid to know?
All educated are stupid for brainwashing and indoctrination.
Penance cannot comprehend that there are four simultaneous years within a single rotation of Earth about the sun.
Each season has its own separate year.
Life is a crapshoot with a femininity cube.
and a masculinity cube.
Mostly, when he ever he added updates,
he just took all the content he already had
and just added a new, like, center-aligned section to it.
So the page just grew bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger over the years.
In 2000, he also added a new page to the site called Are You Jewish?
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Why?
Why?
Well, now that I've cleared up,
that stuff. Are you a fucking Jew? Let's get to the bottom of this.
So, apparently he was, it seems like he was, he was responding to a frequently asked question.
It's not like a test you have to pass to read his page.
No, no. If you're Jewish, I don't want you looking at these holy, this holy cube concept.
It might make you too powerful since it matches directly, I believe, with your star of David.
No, no. It sounds like, yeah, it sounds like, for some reason it wasn't called, am I Jewish,
But no, it sounds like he's trying to answer the question.
But he answered it this way.
I am not Jewish.
Neither was my mother or father.
Anyone saying that Jesus and his Jewish father had something to do with my birth is a damn evil liar.
I am of nature's harmonic time cube, in which both word and God are outlawed.
No plant nor animal speaks word, a fraud by evil adults.
Ray shot back at accusations that he was stupid or crazy by declaring himself,
both the greatest thinker and the wisest human.
Nice.
He stated this on the website.
I am a cubic thinker and far wiser than any God, any scientist, and any educator who
preaches the evil singularity of a single first corner.
To drive this point home, he created the sites the greatest thinker.com and the wisesthuman.com.
Folks, get your hands on I'm right.com and guess what?
At one point he complained that he wasn't being permitted to express his views at educational institutions.
I am not allowed to lecture at the word animal academic institutions, for they fear my wisdom will expose and indict the pen and hirelings as betrayers of dumbass students.
The dungheads who allow their freedom of speech to be suppressed without a whimper, unbelievable.
Word animals will feel the wrath of cubic curse.
God, he is a poet, though.
I have to give it to him.
It's incredible. Word animals will feel the wrath of cubic curse. Very beautiful.
That is a unique use of language. It really is.
Because of his outsized online personality and unique content, he actually did start to get attention from the media and academia.
Sometime in 1999 or 2000, Gene Ray was interviewed several times by a man named Michael William LeBron, who was better known by his pseudonym Lionel.
What?
These interviews...
Lionel?
Lionel, Lionel, Lionel, Lionel, that's right.
Oh, fuck.
Yeah, he was a big radio guy at one point.
Oh, he became a Q guy.
He did become a Q guy, yep.
So these interviews were broadcast through a short-lived radio internet site called Iyada,
and no surviving copies are known to exist today.
However, Lionel played a big part in helping spread the word of TimeCube beyond the early message boards.
And, of course, like you mentioned, Lionel would go on to become not just a Q&M promoter, but he would go on to become a Q&M promoter who caused some controversy when he went to the White House and was photographed with Trump in the Oval Office.
Lionel also in the mid-2000s interviewed again.
And it was pretty clear that Lionel thought that Gene Ray was a joke and even, like, encouraged his audience to screw with him.
It was kind of messed up.
He's treating him like a clown.
In 2001, Gene Ray was interviewed by a San Francisco man named Bruno Connell.
A recording of that interview survived, and it is the earliest available recording of Gene Ray.
Hello. Hey, Gene. My name is Bruno. I'm calling from San Francisco, California. And I'm doing a little studying on the time cube, and I was wondering if you might have a few minutes to chat with me about it.
So maybe if you could just explain the basics of the time cube theory itself?
Well, primarily we have been miseducated into teaching the biblical one first day
and the academic Greenwich one-day Earth rotation.
There are actually four simultaneous 24-hour days in one rotation of Earth.
But we measured time from one point on Earth, actually four times.
A four point exists.
One at midday, one at sundown, one at midnight, and one at sunup.
And the four corners rotate the 24 hours each for 96 hours.
And that's all that is.
Some of I'm trying to think there's an infinitive time, but it's not, it's only four.
And you can only exist in one corner at the time during the four corner rotation,
but three other people can exist in the others.
the others. And hint your theory on debunking Grinch, meantime, the fact that there is no concept
of a single day, because we always have these four days. That's right. You are one or four. They're
like your body has their punt back in two sides, but you want to walk in one direction. You're,
a human is really a quarter or one corner. Bruno Conley seems to be a very compassionate and
open-minded interviewer, and he seems to make an earnest effort to take Gene Ray seriously.
Ray claims that he had been working on this theory for 20 years, and at one point, he seems to say that he created the TimeCube site after getting repeatedly banned for message boards.
To the best of your knowledge, are you the first person to have discovered the TimeCube?
Yes, I can't find anything anywhere.
They threw me, I used to get on some of the Internet scientific and philosophy boards, and they threw me off because I wasn't compromised with them.
And so that's the reason I started the TimeCube.
By the end of the interview, Ray talks about his belief that our fathers are fish because our DNA originated in sperm?
So, hey, let me ask another question.
Did you know your father was a fish?
My father was a fish?
No, please explain.
Well, it's a little micro sperm fish.
I mean, the sperm is swims upstream, just like this salmon do.
They're fertilized the female egg laid in the water.
Interesting.
It isn't.
And so it's so fascinating.
Nate, and the stuff that you can come up with in this thing.
But see, what religion does primarily, it is a cessation of the inquiry for being, a higher life.
In other words, you know, it just, they won't let people go about that.
And so, but, hey, I appreciate you, calling anything you can do.
Yeah, I appreciate the chat, and perhaps we'll have the opportunity to chat again someday and debate it again.
Yeah, good deal.
Cheers.
Yeah, thank you.
Bye.
But this actually doesn't track because none of us look like sperm.
We look like our human parents.
Most of the people I hang out with look like come.
Despite the incomprehensibility of Gene Ray's theories,
he developed the following among college students.
This led to an invitation to speak on a panel about TimeCube
at the prestigious university MIT.
What?
Well, I think, I think.
I think it was, this is really more of a student-led thing.
It was like these tech students who were overwhelmingly overrepresented on the internet
just thought this TimeCube theory was hilarious.
And it sounds like someone said,
it wouldn't be funny if we got him to talk here.
Yeah.
And they succeeded.
Some IRL shit posting.
Yeah.
Were you hire the shit poster to come post at your panel?
They had to rewrite the entire mathematics and science curriculum at MIT afterwards
because of the revelations he made during that speech.
Here's how the event was described by the organizer.
guest speaker Gene Ray will talk about his world-famous harmonic TimeCube.
A question-and-answer session will follow the talk, along with a panel debate composed of Gene Ray, Harvard, and MIT representatives.
Event open to members of the MIT community only.
Gene Ray appeared at the MIT events while wearing a white golf shirt and a hat with the words timecube.com and MIT 2002 emblazoned on them.
