Costco just rolled out Kirkland Signature sparkling energy drinks. It’s a 24-pack for $16.99, with peach, orange, and tropical flavors. Each can has 200 mg of caffeine, so this is clearly Costco taking a shot at the Celsius crowd.

Every single Suhoorfest video I see the girls are wearing the exact same clothes. This has to be a Jewish psyop

WE ALL WON THIS?? 💀


I need a GitHub too! Is it like that or nah?

Since many of you asked about Sh. Hasan’s weight-loss protocol, here is a simplified summary. Like a lot of people, he was dealing with what can only be described as food noise. He was never someone who overindulged, but he did struggle, as many of us do, with persistent carbohydrate cravings. That issue is often moralized when it should be understood more carefully. In many cases, it is not simply a matter of willpower. It reflects disrupted biochemical signaling in the body, which can be driven by several factors, including insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, poor metabolic health, and the modern food environment. In his case, insulin sensitivity was clearly becoming an issue. So rather than guessing, we started where people should start: blood tests. We ran a comprehensive male blood panel to identify the underlying problems. That included hormones such as testosterone, thyroid markers, and estrogen; inflammatory markers such as CRP; methylation markers such as homocysteine; and the usual liver, kidney, and lipid panels. In total, we looked at more than 90 markers. You do not want to begin a health journey by throwing darts in the dark. The results gave us a clearer picture. Alongside supplements aimed at reducing inflammation, improving his cholesterol profile, correcting certain mineral deficiencies, and addressing elevated GGT levels, which pointed to liver stress, we also suggested a peptide-based intervention. He started with 2 mg per week of tirzepatide for a month and then transitioned to 2 mg per week of retatrutide. The effect on food noise was dramatic. Both compounds significantly reduced the constant background pull toward food, especially carbs. As he lost all the weight, many of his other health issues also disappeared. It could be because of the extra weight he was carrying or simply because the metabolic signaling in the body was now getting better. I do not want to get into a full explanation here of what peptides are or how they work. Most of you either already know or can look that up easily enough. I will simply say that I have been in the peptide space for over three years, and while no drug is free of side effects, every intervention has to be judged through a cost-benefit lens. In some people, these compounds can slightly increase heart rate. They can also cause constipation. But for many, those temporary and manageable side effects are outweighed by the metabolic and behavioral benefits that come with meaningful weight loss. In Sh. Hasan’s case, he also continued resistance training and made sure to eat enough protein, which is important, because otherwise rapid weight loss can come at the expense of lean muscle mass. That said, none of this matters if the product itself is questionable. Before anything else, you need confidence that the peptides you are using are actually what they claim to be. That is no small issue, because much of the peptide market is opaque and all come from China, and quality control is not something you should take on faith. This is where, frankly, I have an advantage over someone encountering this world for the first time. We sent people on the ground in China to investigate the supply chain more carefully and learned a great deal in the process. I would buy directly from some vendors and give it to family and friends. But keeping up with the Chinese peptide manufacturers is not easy thing as many open and close within months. So the struggle for the best value for money is an ongoing one. The peptide world online is its own strange ecosystem. The “peptide bros,” who are really just the next evolution of the gym bros, form a fascinating little subculture on X. Some of them deserve genuine credit. They have helped demystify a complicated field and made the discussion more accessible. Others, however, are outright grifters, scammers, or unstable people who happen to have discovered a profitable niche, like that one guy who made decent money on Muslims only to come out one day where he was urinating on the Quran. In the end, we built our own circle of trust: an in-house Muslim pharmacologist, along with people who have been seriously researching this area for a long time. And on that note, let me give a well-deserved shout-out to my dear brother Abir who has helped many people with their weight issues. You can reach him on docabirhealth@gmail.com. He will answer all your questions and source you the best products. You can bet on that. You can mention Move to Muscat to get a discount, but he already has decent prices. keep in mind, you are responsible for your health. Do your research and ask your doctor first. wink wink.


The fastest debate in history😆 Fakhr al-Din al-Razi entered one of the mosques of Samarkand to pray. There, he found the mosque’s shaykh explaining his books incorrectly. When al-Rāzī corrected him, the shaykh became upset and agitated, and demanded a debate in front of-
