@DrNeilStone Same reason people like u can't accept that 27 vaccines before 1yrs old doesn't make sense. Makes $ though! It's why people don't trust doctors who said, "Get the vax, prevent spread, stop disease." A complete canard. None of you said, "High BMI, infirm, old, is the main risk."

Why do some people have such a hard time accepting the immense good and millions of lives saved by vaccines over the decades? Why? What hurts them about that fact?

@cyndiwanek Imagine fighting fraud allegations. Fighting someone exposing fraud/waste of hard-earned taxpayer $ and standing AGAINST the investigation. Show me incentives, I'll show you the root of people's actions. Govt largesse recipients loudest voices against corruption investigation.

This.. Right. Here

@wilsonhlthcoach MUST READ Malcolm Kendrick's The Cholesterol Con. Statins may help in genetically challenged heart histories. MAY. But comorbidities rise w statin use. So, said differently, you MAY get some small (1%) help in fighting heart issues, but you increase your chance of death by more.

My 72-year-old uncle and his doctor had a conversation about statins. He has always been healthy, fit, and active. A low BMI, good BP, he doesn't smoke or have diabetes. He eats beef, seafood, some vegetables, rice, potatoes, nuts, and some fruits. No sweets or processed foods. Doc: "Your cholesterol is high. I'd like you to start taking a statin. Uncle: "What part of my cholesterol is high?" Doc: "Your LDL." Uncle: "Why do I need a statin?" Doc: "Because high LDL will increase your risk of heart attack or stroke." Uncle: "But I'm healthy and active. What's my actual risk?" Doc: "High. If you take a statin, you'll have a lower risk and longer life expectancy." Uncle: "What are the side effects of a statin?" Doc: "Well, some people experience joint pain, muscle soreness, memory issues, elevated blood sugar, and digestive issues." Uncle: "So, it could increase my risk of diabetes?" Doc: "Yes." Uncle: "By how much?" Doc: "Up to about 35%." Uncle: "Isn't diabetes a big risk factor in developing cardiac issues and heart attacks?" Doc: "Yes. It's a major risk factor." Uncle: "By how much?" Doc: "People with diabetes have a 3x-4x higher chance of having a heart attack." Uncle: "So, how much would diabetes reduce my life expectancy?" Doc: "Up to 10 years." Uncle: "So, if I took a statin, how long would I need to take it?" Doc: "For the rest of your life." Uncle: "And what would my life expectancy be if I took it, and it didn't give me diabetes?" Doc: "There is a calculation I could do that tells me your risk and life expectancy." Uncle: "How does the calculation work?" Doc: "It looks at information like your BMI, BP, total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and the fact that you don't smoke, you don't have diabetes, and if you're on any meds for hypertension or cholesterol." Uncle: "So, it doesn't just look at my LDL but my overall health too. What does it say my life expectancy would be if I took a statin and it didn't give me diabetes?" Doc: "You could live 1 extra day." Uncle: "Just 1 day? I would take a med for the rest of my life that could cause joint pain, muscle soreness, memory loss, digestive issues, up to 35% chance of developing diabetes which could put me at a 3x-4x higher risk of having a heart attack and taking up to 10 years off of my life, and I'd only get 1 extra day?" Doc: "Well, yes." Uncle: "Ya, I don't think I need the statin."

@BrittanyinTexas Show us how stupid you are by posting your favorite celebrity dogsht. Winner of the day. Closely followed by retweeting Sarandon, Ruffalo, Bardem. Sophists and charlatans, low IQ dolts who think people want more out of them than just pure acting and make believe.

Another reason to love John Cusack🔥

@BTCBreadMan Gee, really like to have you in a civil community. You'd be a great neighbor.... WTF

I’m bucking this stupid “pick up your dog’s shit” trend. Animals have been shitting on the ground for thousands of years and nobody picked it up for them. One of the most pointless modern psyops.

@nxt888 Since 2001, 97% of global terror from one group, 96% of terrorism deaths at the hands of same, what do you call that? When you hear "Allahu Akbar" in a crowded area, is that more or less scary than, "Be blessed," or, ""Peace be with you?" Survival instinct ISNT bigotry, it's math

When Muslims die, it’s "tragic." When Muslims resist, it’s "Islamist." When Muslims are bombed, it’s "security." When Muslims fight back, it’s "terror." That’s how propaganda works. It trains you to see one side as human, And the other as a problem.

@MercifulMessage Before 700AD, what?

False Islam existed since Adam, the first Human and first Prophet of Islam

@dampedspring Yessir. What befuddles me is people who take this BS seriously. Cyclical fraudster. "There is no 2nd best. Sell your kidneys, buy BTC." LIKE WTF? Fools and their $ lucky enough to get together in 1st place. Have no problem w blockchain tech. But BTC is first mover, that's it.

This should be fraud. The annual return of this investment has been 11ish as the yield has risen over the last year. It's annual volatility based on their own chart is 14% risk free rate is 4 ish resulting in a sharpe ratio of 0.5. But this guy quotes a sharpe with the same annual return but uses the 30d realized annual return as the divisor. Claiming the sharpe ratio is 5.3. $STRC $MSTR.

@TimHannan Do I understand? You're coming at a guy for uncovering fraud, waste, & abuse. Like which part do you have a problem with? Those coming at Nick are hiding something or protecting their friends who are, and most know it. Like who's against uncovering fraud? @CAgovernor sure is.

The only fraud Nick Shirley has exposed is Nick Shirley.

@DrRitaDed Like you needed to tell us that based on your virtue signal lineup of flags in your bio. Reminder, if you stand for everything, you stand for nothing. The idea of orthodoxy without any idea what orthodoxy means. Studied climate change extensively -> gender studies? Got it!

I have a PhD in Gender studies and have studied climate change extensively. Remember that next time you come at me.

@JamieBonkiewicz You OK with needing an ID for alcohol, tobacco purchases, to get on a plane, to get into a building, to open a bank account? Do you consider those taxes or common sense to prevent illicit behavior by people who say they are someone they are not?

Reminder: if voting requires a $165 passport, that’s a poll tax. We made those unconstitutional in 1964.

@SamaHoole The Cholesterol Con, By Dr Malcolm Kendrick MUST READ Statins MIGHT reduce cardiac risk (for genetically challenged, it COULD make sense) by a small amount while increasing morbidity risk by more. Yes, your heart risk MIGHT be lower, but your risk of death is higher. YAY!!

Doctor: "Your cholesterol is high. I'd like to put you on a statin." Patient: "What does high cholesterol actually mean for my risk?" Doctor: "It increases your risk of a cardiac event." Patient: "By how much?" Doctor: "Significantly." Patient: "But how much, specifically?" Doctor: "Your LDL is elevated." Patient: "The absolute risk. What is it." Doctor: "Statins are very well studied." Patient: "I'd like the number." Doctor: "Some patients experience muscle pain, memory issues, and elevated blood sugar..." Patient: "That sounds like the treatment." Doctor: "These are rare." Patient: "What's the absolute risk reduction?" Doctor: "I have a leaflet." The leaflet is provided by the pharmaceutical company. The leaflet does not contain the absolute risk reduction.

@saylordocs Separate trading volume from actual use, try again. If BTC so amazing, going to 1mm, why spend it on ANYTHING? A pizza/burger/services? If going to 1mm, why not spend useless $s for those things? Peer to peer network, digital gold, digital oil, which is it? Make up your mind.

Them: "Nobody uses Bitcoin"

@Cole_Walmsley Think of everything that pushed it 0.10->125k. How hard/easy was that hill to climb? Now many BTC ETFs, BL/everyone else, and it fell from 125k to 70k? Seems weird. And it's software code. AI eating software or no? Finite vs terminal value, get that straight? Use/adoption/moat?

Let me get this straight. Bitcoin started at zero. Absolute nothing. Worth less than your toenail. No venture capital. No CEO. Never had an employee. And it's now the 13th most valuable asset in the world? And you think it's gonna stop here?

@MrsMcGillicuddy @BrittanyinTexas 2004 We had like a 12-piece band, horns, etc. The music made the party, as we'd planned. "September" the opening dance. "Just the Way You Are" the first h/w dance. Been all downhill since....I'm kidding! Year 22 and this one will go the distance!

@EsgOrphan @BrittanyinTexas Oh that sounds so cool! What year was it, if you don't mind my asking? Cos it'd be fun in any year since it was recorded... one of few that would be welcome in any decade. A true modern Classic. ("Modern" being since 1950!!)

THIS IS EVERYTHING! 🫶 Two strangers, different generations, different backgrounds… and suddenly, a full-on dance party erupts in a Costco parking lot. 🕺💃 The world needs more of this. MUST WATCH.💙

@Bitcoin_Teddy and on the move from 125k to 70k?

For every $1,700 move in Bitcoin, MicroStrategy prints $1,000,000,000 in unrealized gains 🤯 This is wild

@TommyThornton TT One of the most respected technical analysts I've come across in the past 10y. But U lost me here on TA in $PCT. 7 doji candles in past 11, then massive bear candle on huge volume -> 52wk low. Weekly break of double bottom, new 18mo low. Seems the knife is still falling.

@ProofOfMoney And if BTC is going to 1mm, why sell it for anything? A pizza, a burger, some services? I mean, is it going to 1mm or not? If yes, buying a burger or pizza with it might be the stupidest trade ever. Or, are you dumping a piece of software to buy some sustenance? Which is it?

1 Bitcoin = 1 pizza. 100 Million Satoshis = 100 Million slices. More slices doesn't mean more pizza. LIMITED! SCARCE! FINITE!

@StephenKing What if Dems said in the past that Iran was the biggest threat and they'd not let Iran get to full nuclear capability and then a Repub President did the thing that the Dems had supported (see immigration speeches Clinton x2, Obama etc, same same) and now they are crying about it?

If a Democratic president had bumblefucked his way into a war with Iran and sent gas prices higher than a Musk rocket, the Republicans would be screaming for impeachment.
