*Results not guaranteed but it’s worth a shot.
TLDR: The Universe is leaving a trail of mind-blowing coincidences in my life, from the discovery of the 52nd perfect number just after I started searching for it, to a wild lawsuit involving presidential inaugurations and famous DJs. Using probability math, I show that the odds of these events lining up are so astronomically low (1 in 20.7 septillion) that it can't be mere chance. I argue that the Universe is sending me signs to keep pushing forward with my ambitious projects and daring greatly. I encourage readers to embrace the madness in their own lives and use it as fuel to achieve the impossible. The post is a wild ride full of twists and turns, but the core message is clear: when the Universe is messing with you, it's time to pay attention and use that cosmic energy to change the world.
Alright folks, buckle up because we're about to go on a wild ride. In this post, I'm gonna lay out the evidence that the Universe itself is messing with me, and show you how you can harness that same cosmic energy to dare greatly and win big. We'll cover perfect numbers, rap beefs, and presidential inaugurations - I told you it was gonna be wild. But more importantly, we'll uncover the secret to defying the odds and making your mark on the world. Let's get into it!
The British SAS, the elite special forces unit of the United Kingdom's armed forces, are renowned for their toughness and ingenuity. In World War II, they famously took on 14,300 German Panzer division troops with just 650 men in the Battle of Termoli—and won. 1:22 odds and won. So, when you learn that their motto is “Who Dares Wins.” You think yeah, that makes sense when you calculate the numbers above. Those who dare do win. “Madness” wins.
That same madness is discussed in MGM+ (subsidiary of Amazon. Yes, I’m a shareholder) Rogue Heroes show about the founding of the legendary darers and winners. I won’t ruin it for you, but in be the new season there is a scene where a German officer wants to meet a SAS member and when asked why by the member the German asked because I want to know how “the SAS has harnessed madness!” (Paraphrasing. Not ruining the scene for ya. Fr.)
This scene hits because, the truth is undeniable, those who dare, those who harnesses the “madness” of being able think you could change the world for the better requires both.
As someone of Scottish heritage myself, I feel a kinship with the SAS, and its Scottish founder David Stirling, and their unconventional thinking of harnessing madness. [1] My family name, Dunsmoor, has its roots in Scotland, and I’d like to think I’ve inherited some of that Scottish tenacity and independent spirit. Or, as my Southern mother would say, “I get it honest.”
That honesty being that madness that makes people think they can change the world for the better. But here’s the thing lasses and lads, I’m here to share some of that madness with you and not only prove the Universe/Simulation/God’s favor is rigged but show how you can rig it in your favor, too.
1. The 52nd Perfect Number Found Less Than Six Months After I Started Looking
Perfect Numbers! Ah this seemingly useless little fascinating bastards, are in number theory, a positive integer (number) that equals the sum of its proper positive divisors (excluding itself). For example, 6 is a perfect number because 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 (6 itself isn’t included). Simple huh? Well, the Greeks to, most recently, Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search (“GIMPS”), have all been looking for these damn things for the better part of 2,000 years and we’ve found 52 of them. [2] Yep. We know of more Pokémon than we do Perfect Numbers. (Only half joking). The average of finding one has come in chunks but it basically occurs every 72.63 years. Though modern technology has clearly helped as 27 discoveries over 63 years, averaging approximately one new perfect number every 2.33 years. The insanity of it is, I was trying to find one thanks to the recent AI revolution that occurred last year because its been over 6 years since the last one was discovered.
In fact, on April 23, 2024, I published an article entitled The Devil’s in the Details, detailing how I thought computational power and perfect numbers were related after falling down a rabbit hole with an LLM. [3] (Can’t wait to test more with DeepSeek once someone tells me there’s no backdoors when running it locally).
Anyway, I was, in my mind, very close to coming up with a way to help find them. My coding and math need a lot of work but not bad for an amateur, but we aren’t launching rockets with this shit.
Someone I would trust to launch some rockets with is brilliant GIMPS’s member, Luke Durant. This history making man found the 52nd perfect number on October 21, 2024. A less than six months after my article. [4]
Now this isn’t to say I deserve any credit or had anything to do with this huge victory. I’m not taking that way from Lucas or GIMPS at all. They deserve ALL the glory.
BUT WHAT ARE THE F-ING ODDS?!
Less than six months man? Six months? The last one hasn’t been found for six f-ing years and less six months after I start messing with the Universe was like hey remember that thing you were into like six months ago look see you were “close.” These damn things have only 52 we have found so far giving our limited computing power and this dude finds one less than six months after I start messing with them?!? The damn Greeks knew and were messing about with these damn things!
So, math time!
Liberally, Probability of a Perfect Number Being Discovered in October 2024
Mean time between discoveries: 72.63 years
Monthly probability: 1 / (72.63 * 12) = 1/871.56 ≈ 0.00115 (0.115%)
Conservatively, Probability of a Perfect Number Being Discovered in October 2024
Previous time between discoveries 6 years.
Monthly probability: 1/72 ≈ 0.01389 (1.39%)
Not bad right? I mean not good especially since you have to be looking for them, they aren’t like parking spaces or a shits to give on a Friday but still! I haven’t figured out how to calculate that math given that GIMPS has a lot of people a computing power looking for these bad boys. 1/871.56 ≈ 0.00115 (0.115%) or 1/72 ≈ 0.01389 (1.39%) those are odds you don’t want in a card game. Unless you dare, and win.
2. Trump, 3LAU, & Me Walk into a Bar
I’m a terrible rapper. Ask anyone who attended law school in Tokyo with me. I may still actually be banned from karaoke bar in Shibuya for my record scratching pipes, now that I think about it. And, “No, Evans this is a joke.” Don’t try to get me banned from Japan.
Who is Evans you might ask? I’m glad you asked but sad that I have to tell you! He’s a con man of the highest-dumbest order. What do I mean by that? You know that movie Catch Me If You Can starting Leonard DiCaprio? In which it was ultimately a completely made-up story and the guy didn’t really do all that shit he claims he did in the book or movie but he convinced others, and Hollywood, he did and got a movie out of it so still arguably a great f-ing con man because he’s got a movie about his fake life. Yeah, Evans of the gum on his shoe. Lower in every category and deserving of being rubbed into the dirt but still lies with such conviction, it’s almost impressive if he wasn’t so bad at it. Evans lies as easily as he breathes, and with such conviction that he believes his own lies. He believes you can get a 19/21 on the Law School Admission Test (“LSAT”; real scoring is 120-180) then changed it to Law National Aptitude Test (“LNAT”) but that time it was out of 30+; he believes the American Bar Association, among others, are a regulators of lawyers in the States; he believes he still has limited practice rights in Wisconsin as showcased on his LinkedIn profile (they’ve been removed as of May 16, 2024); and, he lies to make people believe some of the most insane shit I’ve ever seen as you will see here. (or footnote [5] if you have time to review 143 other lies and/or misrepresentations by Evans and Gresham International).
But check this out: the Universe decided to pull one of its cosmic pranks and tie all these seemingly unrelated threads together in the wildest way possible.
So, I put that insane shit on Mirror.xyz, Paragraph.xyz and Medium and they took them down because Evans sent a laughable cease and desist so I moved them all to Dunsmoorlaw.com. [6]
Then this walking, talking piece of excrement is actually trying to sue me in Wisconsin and my former firm for hosting it on DunsmoorLaw.com. Can you believe that? This fool's throwing around indefensible legal jargon like “defamation per se,” “harassment” ... it's like he bought a $10 lawsuit starter kit off Wish.com. But here's the thing: truth is an absolute defense. And in most states, substantial truth is too, as in Wisconsin. So, he can huff and puff all he wants, but he ain't blowing this house down. Plus, get this, by his own admission, he's a “public figure.” You know what that means? He'd have to prove actual malice. Fat f-ing chance, buddy.
Anyway, this super dumb liar says, for no apparent reason other than a false attempt to presumably make me look bad states under penalty of perjury that I have “rap songs he had made…” on Dunsmoor.io.
Now, dear reader, as we discussed earlier, I'm not a rapper, but a fan of the genre (“Not Like is Us” is my anthem right now), but I’m not a rapper so when this little liar put that I laughed when I got the full complaint from the clerk on January 6th.
But then I smiled the biggest grin when I found out who was playing a set at Trump’s inauguration. 3LAU.
Who’s 3BLAU? Just a well-known electronic dance music (“EDM”) DJ while working on revolutionize musical assets on a blockchain and NFTs using Royal.io. And on one of those NFT from Royal.io I own, was now on that damn website Evans’ included in racial undertone snarky remark. The NFT allowed you to use Royal.io to then utilize an AI that allowed to mint a one-of-a-kind score. This is what is on Dunsmoor.io under the title “Dunzmoor ft 3LAU and Royal.io.” This was the Spotify link for the very damn song
Now what are the odds of all that occurring? I asked some of my AI compatriots to help me come up with some rough numbers. (Statisticians, if you can refine this come at me. Math clearly isn’t my strong point but I’m lucky. Sometimes.)
Step 1: Probability of a False, Unrelated Claim About Rap Songs in a Lawsuit
Assumed to be 1 in 100,000 per lawsuit
With 40 million lawsuits per year, monthly probability: 33 / (3.33 million) ≈ 1 in 100,000 (0.0000099%)
Step 2: Probability of Trump Winning the 2024 Election
50% chance (1/2 = 0.5)
Step 3: Probability of 3LAU DJing at Trump's Inauguration
Assumed at 1 in 200,000 (0.0005%)
Step 4: Probability of the False Claim and 3LAU's Inauguration Performance Together
(1/100,000) (1/2) (1/200,000) = 1 in 40 billion
To put that in perspective, the probability of 1 in 40 billion is extraordinarily rare, but there are some real-world examples that come close.
Winning the Powerball Jackpot Twice in a Row • The odds of winning one Powerball jackpot are about 1 in 292.2 million. • Winning twice in a row would be: (1/292,200,000) × (1/292,200,000) = 1 in 85.4 billion • This is slightly rarer than 1 in 40 billion, but still within the same magnitude.
A Person Being Struck by Lightning 15 Times in a Lifetime • The odds of being struck by lightning once in a lifetime are about 1 in 15,300. • To be struck 15 times, assuming independent events: (1/15,300)¹⁵ ≈ 1 in 35 billion • The record-holder for most lightning strikes survived is Roy Sullivan, who was hit 7 times—meaning something close to 1 in 40 billion is at least theoretically possible.
Insanity. Utter insanity. And yes, we have pointed out this and many more lies to the Court in Wisconsin. More updates to come.
But insane right? What are the odds this little lying machine, even as much as he lies, would include something so random and off the wall lie that had nothing to do with the case or alleged offending website, and then the very same DJ gets to play a presidential inauguration?! Like I said, insanity. Haters will say it’s fake but it’s all real.
Now, the numbers get truly bananas if you consider the only reason, I had to expose Evans this year was because of my sabbatical from the law. (Read more about that here, No Good Deed Goes Unpunished at footnote [7]
Given:
Approximately 0.11% of practicing lawyers in New York face public disciplinary actions each year.
There are roughly 180,000 practicing lawyers in New York.
This means about 198 lawyers receive some form of public discipline annually, with a portion of those being one-year suspensions.
Step 1: Probability of a lawyer in New York receiving a one-year suspension
Assuming that one-year suspensions make up about 25% of all public disciplinary actions (a conservative estimate)
Number of one-year suspensions per year: 198 * 0.25 = 49.5
Probability of a specific lawyer receiving a one-year suspension in a given year: 49.5 / 180,000 ≈ 0.000275 or about 1 in 3,636
Step 2: Probability of the false claim and 3LAU's inauguration performance together
False claim in November 2024: 1/100,000
Trump winning the 2024 election: 1/2
3LAU DJing at Trump's inauguration: 1/200,000
Lawyer receiving one-year suspension: 1/3,636
Combined probability: (1/100,000) (1/2) (1/200,000) * (1/3,636) = 1/145,440,000,000,000 ≈ 1 in 145.44 trillion
The odds that I had this type of time on my hands to engage in such an expose are yep, 1 in 145.44 trillion. With a f-ing “T.” No human brain can really comprehend that. Its four times the US debt as of February 3, 2025. If it was old cold hard cash, it would be from height of a stack of 100,000,000,000,000 (one hundred trillion) one-dollar bills measures 6,786,616 miles. This would reach from the earth to the moon and back 14 times. FOURTEEN.
(Also, I know 3LAU got a lot of hate for performing and I understand. I just it’s hard to say no when it’s literally a historical moment. We rarely, even the “mad ones,” get to put or finger prints of history. Now what type of history I’ll leave that for the comment section…)
3. “Are ya winning, son?”
Now did “Daring” and “Winning” occur because at this point in the story, you are like “Dude, you just told us you got sued and you didn’t find the perfect number. It sounds like those who dare don’t win.” Thereby ruining my entire story and math fun time. But, dear reader the odds of all this shit happening on this same time line (not to get into quantum physics, I’m definitely too dumb for that) that I was suspended and had time to expose Evans, I also had the time to mess with perfect numbers, Evans being dumb enough to sue me in Wisconsin and then lie about the most random thing in a gross attempt to make me look bad, and then selection by the Trump administration to put that all together in a weird little bow occurring within the same timeframe is 1 in 126.77 quadrillion. (Math below after end notes)
Yep. 126,770,000,000,000,000. Cinco Comma Club for my Silicon Valley lovers.
Five f-king commas?! Do you know how bananas that is??
Here’s some examples, with probabilities around the level of 1 in quadrillions (1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000) of all this happening on this shorten timeline. These are exceedingly rare events, and even compared to very low-probability events like winning lotteries or asteroid impacts, the odds we’re discussing here are in a different league. Here are some examples that could approach or exceed this level of rarity:
Humans Receiving an Instantaneous and Entire Genome Alteration • Probability: 1 in several quadrillion • Explanation: The chance of a mutation or set of mutations that would completely alter the human genome to give superhuman abilities or significant genetic changes is astronomically small, likely on the order of 1 in several quadrillion. While mutations happen naturally, the odds of a mutation leading to profound genetic changes capable of causing human enhancements (such as advanced healing or resistance to diseases) are incredibly unlikely.
A Global Pandemic Reaching All 7 Billion People Simultaneously (Sorry for the C-vid trauma) • Probability: 1 in several quadrillion • Explanation: The odds of a pandemic simultaneously infecting the entire global population in the same exact year, with no significant geographical or immune barriers, would be extraordinarily low. Even if a virus or pathogen were to spread globally, the coordination of this exact timing could be 1 in several quadrillion.
Total Unification of All Major World Powers Under One Government • Probability: 1 in quadrillion • Explanation: While political unification or cooperation happens at different levels, the chance of every major power on Earth forming a singular, cohesive global government or federation is so low that it might fall under the 1 in quadrillion probability.
Now, did I win? Once again, from an objective standpoint and to be completely fair, these look like losses but the lawsuit isn’t over and there are plenty of more Perfect Numbers to find. The evidence against Evans is staggering and showing how blatantly he lies in a case that relies on truth (or substantial truth) as an absolute defense, shows that lying doesn’t help his case.
And there are infinite perfect numbers to be found and I believe the ongoing search for perfect numbers could lead to significant advances in computational power. (e.g., If aliens visited us, we could get an objective measure of their technological advancement by asking how many Perfect Numbers their computers can find. It would give us a baseline for comparison, even if they're definitely far ahead of us this will provide a universal metric of how far.)
Unironically, the next Perfect Number is one that’s close to my heart, it was my high school football number. And anyone from the South will tell you, that kind of thing matters.
So, listen up, all you beautiful misfits and dreamers out there. Take this wild shit you've just read, or any other glitch-in-the-matrix moment like it, and use it as rocket fuel. Chase those dreams like your ass is on fire and they've got the only water in town. Because that’s what I'm doing. I'm taking these cosmic breadcrumbs and following them all the way to the end of the yellow brick road. And if the Universe keeps messing with me, I’mma keep messing right back.
Don’t believe me? Here’s proof reaching outside the box has benefits:
a) How Amateurs Just Solved a 30-Year-Old Math Problem. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQWFSj1CXeg)
b) Students discover and publish unexpected proof for the 2,000-year-old Pythagorean theorem. (https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/29/science/teens-pythagorean-theorem-study/index.html#:~:text=Louisiana students Ne'Kiya Jackson,a high school math contest)
c) Be the rapper named Kendrick Lamar who wouldn’t back down from a bully who came after his family and now has a Grammy and the best diss track of all time. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drake–Kendrick_Lamar_feud)
d) Be the SAS and fight against the odds, against fascist force at a ratio of 1:22 and win. Be one who dares, and wins. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Devon)
The Universe rewards action and persistence in chasing dreams. Otherwise, the Universe sends signs, like the ones you've witnessed here, reminding you to stay focused and get back to work.
4. Outro, To Use a Rap Album Term.
The book on all my crazy stories like this is coming and many more from others, especially after this nudge. Just working on other main quests first.
Want to know more and/or help the madness or dare too? I need:
South Carolina Emerging Technology Association (“SCETA”) is revamping our membership. If you’re in SC or want to support the cause, please join coming up. We are going to be doing some wild things this year at SCETA
Speaking of SCETA, I’m working on an event for SCETA that has South Carolina investors coming together with South Carolina companies to use intrastate offerings. If you’re either, please reach out. We hope to make this an annual event.
Speaking of investing, if you or someone you know has a major American male sports team for sale, please reach out ASAP.
If you’re an international gaming/gambling lawyer, please reach out.
If you or someone you know has connections to a blood bank, I'd like to speak with you about a partnership with an AI startup. By leveraging cutting-edge machine learning and data science, we believe we can dramatically improve the efficiency and effectiveness of blood banks, potentially saving millions of lives. However, to train our models and validate our approach, we need access to real-world data and expertise that only blood bank insiders can provide. If you can help connect us with forward-thinking partners in this space, you'll be playing a vital role in a project that could transform healthcare on a global scale. (Read more: AI + Data + (REDACTED) = PROFIT, https://paragraph.xyz/@dunsmoor.eth/aidataredactedprofit)
Last but not least, the Blue Rock needs a new technical advisor. Someone with a deep knowledge and understanding of blockchain, DeFi, and LPs. I cannot promise riches but I can promise glory.
If you or someone you know works for National Park Service, Department of Interior, and/or National Park Foundation AND ARE NOT AFRAID OF CRYPTO, please reach out. I want to plant some trees, as discussed below.
P.S. Oh, and the Universe’s jokes keep coming. I'm scrolling through Facebook after completing this first draft and I see my buddy Jonathan Dunsmoor - great guy, born before me, I call him “Number One” - he's tagged all these pics from Joshua Tree.
Now, here's the thing. I've been low-key working on this project to plant a shit-ton forever of Joshua Trees in the Mojave Desert. It’s like this whole thing with NFTs and carbon offsets and... you know what, that's a whole other tangent. Point is, it's been a bitch and a half to get off the ground, mostly because of all the red tape and bureaucratic Chokepoint 2.0 stuff. (As I discussed a long time ago, back when I was a securities lawyer: https://dunsmoorlaw.com/2023/03/22/the-modern-steam-engine-is-under-attack-why-the-crypto-blockchain-industry-needs-to-fight-operation-choke-point-2-as-a-team/) But anyway, seeing my boy Jonathan, a man I literally share the same name as, out there, right in the thick of it, right as I'm still trying to pull off this Joshua Tree NFT project? Can't make this shit up, man. Universe has got jokes for days.
![Footnote [8]](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstorage.googleapis.com%2Fpapyrus_images%2F02b02022c8dca3b6e9c8966c7f34858a.png&w=3840&q=75)
Anyways, the odds of that happening just staggering.
Let's do the math: (1) Probability of the 3LAU, Trump, perfect number events: 1 in 126.77 quadrillion; (2) Probability of the Jonathan Dunsmoor Joshua Tree coincidence: 1 in 163 billion; (3) Combined probability: (1 / 126,770,000,000,000,000) * (1 / 163,050,000,000) = 1 / 20,663,510,000,000,000,000,000,000 ≈ 1 in 20.7 septillion
To put that in perspective, 1 in 20.7 septillion is such an incredibly small probability that it's difficult to find comparable events. It's like:
Winning the Powerball lottery jackpot 7 times in a row
Flipping a fair coin and getting heads 88 times consecutively
Randomly selecting a specific atom from all the atoms in the known universe
(According to ChatGPT)
Now, I know what you math wizards out there are thinking: “But Dunsmoor, these events aren't truly independent! The probabilities are all tangled up like a plate of cosmic spaghetti!” And you know what? You're absolutely right. These mind-boggling coincidences aren't happening in a vacuum - they're all swirling around in the crazy vortex of my life, feeding off each other like some sort of quantum feedback loop. It's like if I went to Vegas and hit the jackpot on the slot machines, then immediately scored a royal flush at the poker table, and then won big at the roulette wheel. Sure, those events are all technically separate, but when they happen in rapid succession like that, it starts to feel like the Universe is stacking the deck in your favor. So while the math might not be 100% airtight, I think it still captures the sheer, mind-melting improbability of this cosmic bombardment. But hey, if there are any statisticians out there who want to jump in and set me straight, be my guest! I'm just a humble explorer trying to make sense of this wild ride we call life.
So here's the deal: the Universe is out there, and it's got a wild sense of humor. But it's also got your back, if you're willing to take those leaps of faith and dare to chase your craziest dreams. The odds might seem impossible, but that's just the Universe's way of testing your resolve. So take those cosmic signs and run with 'em. Embrace the madness, and let it fuel your fire. Because when you do, you might just find that the Universe steps in to lend a helping hand. And who knows? You might just end up changing the world.
