I remember when 23andMe came out. First thing I said was don’t give up your DNA. It is the most valuable and unique thing you have.

One of the best things my therapist told me was "the reason you dissociate in your towel after you shower, sit in your car after you park, and mindlessly scroll on your phone all night after work is because you're living in a "functional freeze state." Where you can still get things done, but it takes every ounce of your energy to do it. This is why you're constantly exhausted, space out often, and why you can be so social at work but then ignore every text once you get home." If you can relate maybe this account is for you.

The older I get, the more I realise being in a hurry is a terrible way to live your life.

Imagine you finally get all the power, control and wealth you dream of. You then buy all the stuff that you salivate over. Toys, homes, experiences. All of it. Okay. Tough Question: Now what? Seriously. After the party gets old: Now what?

Interesting to see how economics unfold from political decisions.

YIKES 🇨🇦 Stellantis basically told Canada that there is NO BUSINESS case for an Auto sector in Canada with Tariffs in place. This is a major crisis

🇧🇷 RIO TURNS INTO A WARZONE AS DRUG CARTELS FIGHT BACK About 2,500 cops rolled into Rio before sunrise to take on Red Command, one of Brazil’s biggest drug gangs. Gang members answered with bullets, burning cars, barricades, and for the first time ever in Brazil, drone-dropped explosives. The death toll hit 80 by noon. Four cops were among the dead. The governor says Rio is “effectively at war”... and based on the skyline, he's not kidding. You thought GTA was wild? Rio just said “hold my caipirinha.” Source: @Visegrad24

It’s dark, after 2am … you awake to the sounds of your door getting kicked in. 5 thugs are inside, with guns. Your mind races as you are ripped from your slumber. Where are the kids … oh god 🥺 Violent armed home invasions are commonplace now. Liberal solution? Ban my competition rifle 🇨🇦🤷🏼‍♀️

Creatine isn’t just for athletes. A growing body of scientific evidence now shows creatine helps preserve muscle during aging, maintains bone density, improves cognition (especially during stress), and speeds muscle recovery after intense exercise. To explore the mechanisms, optimal dosing strategies, and practical considerations, and more, I invited a leading creatine researcher Dr. Darren Candow (@darrencandow) onto the podcast. Even if you’re not an athlete—or you’ve dismissed creatine as a muscle supplement—you need to listen to this episode. Links to YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify in the comments.

Society is dumbing you down and ruining your attention span. You need to be actively resisting this process: - meditate for 30 minutes a day - raw dog walks with no technology - read long hard books - watch long movies without being distracted - spend hours in deep focus - 2+ day digital detoxes this is the only way to survive.

🔥🔥NEW -- POILIEVRE ANNOUNCES NO CAPITAL GAINS ON ANY INVESTMENT RE-INVESTED IN CANADA This is huge! Stocks, real-estate, bonds, businesses, farms, crypto ... sell it, and buy a Canadian asset? Capital gains are deferred!

Overfed but undernourished—that’s the paradox plaguing modern America 60% of the average American’s daily calories come from ultra-processed foods that are rich in calories but starved of nutrients These foods fail to satisfy hunger, are cheaper than wholesome alternatives, and hijack our brains' reward systems, driving addiction This deadly trio—no satiety, low cost, and addiction—traps us in a cycle of overeating, obesity, and skyrocketing healthcare costs

This is insanely fucked up, but the question is did @Google do the same thing with Android? RCS texts are encrypted, but does the UK government have the same access to Android phones? If not, it’s a great motivation to switch platforms.

The UK Government requested backdoor access to user data not even Apple has access to. Apple refused. Instead, Apple disabled ‘Advanced Data Protection’ for UK customers. Britons can no longer encrypt our data because the Government wants access to it. The UK is anti-privacy.

There have been thousands of generations of humans, and you are alive to witness the first photo of a Sunset on another World. This is a real photo of the sunset on Mars.

"I'd die for my family" Okay. Would you lift 3x a week, eat a nutrient dense diet, fix your sleep habits, walk 10k steps and stop drinking so much alcohol for them?

Physical inactivity is as deadly as smoking Yet, we don’t treat it that way By age 50, most Americans have lost 10% of their peak muscle mass—by 70, up to 40% This isn’t about vanity; it’s about survival Resistance training isn’t optional; it’s the most powerful defense against aging we have

Combining omega-3s, vitamin D, and regular exercise may reduce biological aging far beyond the impacts of these interventions in isolation, a new study indicates. Specifically, supplementing with omega-3s alone reduced biological age on several next-generation epigenetic clocks during the 3-year study. It also slowed the pace of biological aging. Omega-3s combined with vitamin D or exercise had an even greater benefit on phenotypic age when compared to any singe intervention. The biggest benefit for phenotypic age—a nearly 4-month reduction—was observed when omega-3s, vitamin D, and exercise were combined. This aligns with what we know about the individual effects of these interventions. Having a low omega-3 index is more strongly associated with all-cause mortality than smoking. Vitamin D plays a critical role in modulating several mechanisms associated with the "hallmarks of aging." Being sedentary is one of the strongest predictors of an early death—and exercise is one of the most powerful ways to delay it. These results suggest that while omega-3s have powerful anti-aging effects, they also enhance the benefits of supplementing with vitamin D and engaging in regular exercise. There is a synergy among healthy lifestyle habits. Study PMID: 39900648
