Le délire a duré 72 minutes. 72 minutes devant le monde entier. - 72 minutes où le président américain a confondu le Groenland avec l'Islande. Plusieurs fois. Tout en expliquant pourquoi il veut l'acheter. - 72 minutes où il a menacé un allié de l'OTAN, le Danemark, avec ces mots : « Vous pouvez dire oui, et nous l'apprécierons. Vous pouvez dire non, et nous nous en souviendrons. - 72 minutes au cours desquelles il a qualifié le Groenland de « morceau de glace » dont dépendraient le destin de la planète : « Ce que je demande, c'est un morceau de glace en échange de la paix mondiale ». - 72 minutes où il n’a pas évoqué la présence des groenlandais. - 72 minutes au cours de laquelle il a déclaré qu'il avait "100% de sang écossais et 100% de sang allemand". Ce qui ferait 200%. Mais les mathématiques et lui, ça fait 2. - 72 minutes au cours desquelles il a déclaré que les États-Unis, après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, « avaient rendu le Groenland au Danemark ». Dommage que ce soit faux. Les États-Unis n'ont jamais possédé le Groenland. Jamais. En 1916, ils ont officiellement reconnu la souveraineté danoise. Pendant la guerre, ils n'ont obtenu que des bases militaires temporaires. Et en 1946, ils ont essayé de l'acheter en offrant 100 millions de dollars. Le Danemark a dit non. Il n'y a pas eu de "restitution". - 72 minutes au cours desquelles il a soutenu que "la Chine n'a pas d'éoliennes", alors qu’elle est le premier producteur mondial d'énergie éolienne depuis 15 ans, et qui construit 45% de tous les projets éoliens de la planète. Mais pour Trump, "ils n'ont pas de champs de moulins à vent". Ils les vendent "à des imbéciles". - 72 minutes au cours desquelles il a déclaré que "toutes les grandes compagnies pétrolières viennent avec nous au Venezuela". Dommage que le PDG d'ExxonMobil, trois jours plus tôt, lui ait dit en face que le Venezuela n'est pas "investissable". Trump furieux a d’ailleurs menacé d'exclure Exxon. Les autres n’ont rien dit, mais pas pensé moins. Mais lui, à Davos, a dit qu'ils "venaient tous". - 72 minutes au cours desquelles il a déclaré qu'il "n'y a pratiquement pas d'inflation" aux États-Unis. L'inflation américaine est de 2,7 %. Supérieur à l'objectif de la Fed. En hausse, selon les prévisions, en raison de ses propres taxes douanières. Mais pour lui, "il n'y en a pratiquement pas". - 72 minutes au cours desquelles il a attaqué le président de la Réserve fédérale en le traitant de "stupide". En direct. Devant les dirigeants économiques mondiaux. - 72 minutes au cours desquelles il a raconté qu'il avait mis des droits sur la Suisse par dépit, parce qu'"une femme" dont il ne se souvient pas du nom "ne l’avait pas caressé dans le bon sens". - 72 minutes où il a déclaré que "hier le marché s'est effondré à cause de l'Islande". L'Islande. Un pays de 380.000 habitants. Qui allait faire s'effondrer Wall Street. - 72 minutes au cours desquelles il a affirmé que les États-Unis "ont payé 100% de l'OTAN". 100%. Lorsque la part américaine du budget de l'OTAN est d'environ 16 %. Mais pour lui, 100%. - 72 minutes au cours desquelles il a confondu l'Azerbaïdjan en "Aber-bajian". - 72 minutes de sautes d’humeur. De mensonges vérifiables. Des nombres inventés. De menaces aux alliés. D'insultes aux fonctionnaires. De gaffes géographiques. De vantardise démentie par les faits. Et le monde, en silence, a regardé. Pendant 72 longues minutes. Et dire qu'autrefois, pour beaucoup moins, les carrières politiques se terminaient. Aujourd'hui, on attend le prochain délire. Bienvenue en 2026. Et nous ne sommes qu’en janvier.

Today I turn 55. I’m the fittest, sharpest, and happiest I’ve ever been. If I’m an outlier, it’s not because I’m built different or discovered a secret formula. The truth is far less glamorous: It’s a million tiny choices, compounded over decades. Here are 55 of them: 1. Walk 15+ miles a week, even if you do other exercise. Humans are uniquely made to move slowly over long distances—it’s critical to longevity. 2. Develop a writing practice. It’s the single best way to sharpen your mind. And remember, you don’t have to be a good writer to write. Start with 10 minutes a day. 3. Swap out your toothpaste, deodorant, lotions, soap, shampoo, and other personal care products for natural versions. Here’s a rule of thumb: Don’t put anything on your skin that you couldn’t safely eat. 4. If you have a positive thought about someone, don’t keep it to yourself—share it immediately. Encouragement defies the laws of physics: When you give energy, you also receive it. 5. Wear shoes with a wide forefoot (I like Topo Athletic) and wear toe spreaders around the house (search “yoga toes” on Amazon). Spine health begins with the feet. 6. Get sunlight regularly. Moderate sun exposure (without sunscreen) is hugely important for overall health. 7. Do a 3-minute deep (“ass to grass”) squat every morning. Deep squats are often called the anti-aging exercise. It’s been said that, “It’s not that you can’t do deep squats because you’re old, it’s that you’re old because you can’t do deep squats.” 8. Explore minimalism (it’s not what you think it is). 9. Set boundaries on toxic relationships. We tend to cling to relationships past their expiration date, and it takes a bigger toll on our health than we recognize. 10. Eat real food. Not too much. Don’t eat garbage. Binge occasionally. Fast occasionally. That’s the diet. 11. Learn about FIRE. It’s a great framework for financial success. 12. Don’t take antibiotics except in emergency situations. They’re massively over-prescribed and aren’t needed in most cases. Antibiotics have done untold damage to our guts, which is where health begins. Great natural alternatives are out there. 13. Get 8 hours of quality sleep each night. To optimize sleep: —Don’t eat after 6pm —Get blackout shades and cover LEDs with black tape —No screens 2 hours before bed —Try ashwagandha (an herb) to calm the nervous system 14. Stop drinking, even in moderation. People find all sorts of ways to justify drinking, but there’s no escaping the simple fact that alcohol is a toxin and it limits your potential. 15. Travel as much as possible. Nothing expands the mind like seeing the world. And travel doesn’t have to be expensive—the best experiences happen outside of fancy resorts, when you live like a local. 16. Let go of resentment. When you forgive someone, you release the prisoner, and the prisoner isn’t them… it’s you. 17. Show up on time, every time. Poor time management limits success more than most people realize. If you struggle with punctuality, stop everything else and fix that first. 18. Spend lots of time in nature and touch the earth. Humans evolved over 300k years to live in harmony with nature, and only recently have we retreated indoors. If you don’t spend time outside, you’re fighting biology (hint: You won’t win.) 19. Stop doing dumb things. As Leo Tolstoy said, “People try to do all sorts of clever and difficult things to improve life instead of doing the simplest, easiest thing—refusing to participate in activities that make life bad.” 20. Find your happy place and (eventually) move there. Most people live where they live because... that's where they live. We are products of our environment—choose yours carefully. 21. Find a hobby and pursue mastery. You can’t have a happy life without a passionate pursuit that isn’t your vocation. Your work—even if you enjoy it—isn’t enough. 22. Avoid mainstream medicine except as a last resort. The results are in—our healthcare (or more appropriately, sick care) system is badly broken and only makes people sicker. 23. Have a mindset of abundance. There is no advantage to being a pessimist—even if you’re right, it’s a miserable way to live. In a very real way… whatever you believe, you’re right! 24. Do hard things. Choose courage over comfort. Everything you want is on the other side of fear and hard work. As Jerzy Gregorik said, “Hard choices, easy life. Easy choices, hard life.” 25. Ignore haters. Hurt people hurt people. Negative/toxic people live in a prison of their own design. Don’t join them! 26. Say no. Protect your time and energy like it’s your most precious asset… because it is. 27. Become a water snob. As an alien said on Star Trek, humans are “ugly bags of mostly water.” You are what you drink—literally! We have Mountain Valley Spring water delivered in glass 5-gallon jugs and also have whole-house water filter (Aquasana Rhino). 28. Stop drinking sodas and sugary energy drinks. After a few weeks you won’t miss them, and a few months later they’ll seem disgusting. Refined sugar causes inflammation, which is the root of most disease. 29. If you’re over 35, find a good functional/longevity medicine doctor and start tracking your hormones. Modern life is hell on the endocrine system and restoring healthy hormone levels can change your life. As we get older, we either accept a slow decline in performance or we do something about it—choose the latter! 30. Develop a morning routine and follow it faithfully. Win the morning, win the day! 31. Invest in experiences, not things. People frequently regret buying things, but rarely regret investing in great experiences (especially when shared with loved ones). Remember, there’s nothing you can buy in a mall that you’ll remember in ten years. 32. Explore spirituality. It’s arrogant and small-minded to believe there’s nothing going on in our universe that is beyond our comprehension. We know less about our universe than an ant meandering on a sidewalk understands about this planet. 33. Have a strong bias toward action—doing rather than talking. If you ask a bunch of old people about their regrets, they’ll talk about the things they *didn't* do—the shots they didn’t take—more than the things they did do (even if it went wrong). As Wayne Gretzky famously said, “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.” Most people don’t take enough shots. 34. Stay lean. Men in particular are obsessed with muscle mass these days, but bulk doesn’t age well. The goal is to be strong but lean. The fittest guys in their 50s and beyond aren’t meatheads, they’re lean guys who are serious about a sport. 35. Curate your inner circle carefully. Surround yourself with people you admire and who challenge you to grow. Remember, we’re the average of our 5 closest relationships. 36. Be the fittest version of yourself. Your body is your only vessel for experiencing life—so treat it as such. Fitness isn’t working out a few times a week, it’s a lifestyle. The older you get, the more time you need to devote to your health. 37. Take the time to appreciate art and beauty in all its forms. 38. Think globally, but act locally. Too many people put their energy into far-away problems they don’t understand and can’t impact, while ignoring problems right under their nose. Want to change the world? Start at home. 39. Try psychedelics. It’s one of those things everyone should do at least once, and it might be the breakthrough you’ve been looking for. 40. Limit bad habits, including unhealthy thought patterns. We all have them—practice avoidance and find substitutes. Get professional help if needed. 41. Be a lifelong learner. Your brain is just like a muscle—if you don’t feed and flex it regularly, it will atrophy. 42. Find your purpose. People with a strong sense of purpose are happier and live longer. Lack of purpose sucks energy and magnifies depression. 43. Only take advice from people who embody the traits you want to have. Talk is cheap—emulate those who have DONE it. 44. The goal is not to retire and do nothing, it’s to build a great day-to-day life that you don’t need to escape. A life of leisure is a slow death. Happiness isn’t possible without a little struggle, uncertainty, and skin in the game. 45. Have fun! Do frivolous and silly things that make you smile. As George Bernard Shaw famously said, “We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” 46. Whatever you want to do or achieve in life, start NOW. Don’t fall victim to “someday thinking” because someday never comes. 47. Accumulate assets—things that grow in value over time. It’s the #1 habit of rich people, and it can be done in tiny chunks. Instead of spending $100 on an impulse purchase that has no lasting value, put that money into an index fund or Bitcoin. It becomes addictive (in a good way). 48. Don’t ignore the big 3 canaries in the coal mine for health: —Low libido (and ED) —Frequent sinus & respiratory issues —Depression These usually aren’t medical conditions in themselves, they’re symptoms of an underlying problem. Find a good doc (outside of the mainstream) and figure out the root cause. 49. Have a clear vision for your future. How can you decide which direction to go if you haven’t clearly defined the destination? It sounds obvious, but 95% of people haven’t defined their “Ideal End State” in detail and in writing. (Check out my thread on this topic.) 50. Make your own decisions. We live in an era where most of what society tells us is wrong. Don’t be afraid to break from societal norms—if people say you’re crazy, it’s a sign that you’re doing something right. 51. Get hardcore about mobility exercise. As you age, it’s usually the knees, hips, and lower back that limit physical performance. 30 min a couple times a week can spare you a lifetime of pain. YouTube is a great resource. 52. Go all in on family. Get married, stay married, have kids. Burn the boats. In the end, family is all that matters. 53. Be ruthless with your time. Money comes and goes. Time only goes. Audit your calendar ruthlessly—cut the trivial, double down on the meaningful, and spend your hours like your life depends on it. (Because it does.) 54. Have a strong bias toward action. Be curious, try things, meet people—it’s how you increase your surface area for serendipity, the most powerful unseen force in our lives. 55. Reinvent yourself every decade. Over time, we slowly drift off course from our priorities, values, and true identity. Take stock and don’t be afraid to hit the reset button. Bold, calculated moves made for the right reasons almost always pay off—usually even more than you can imagine. 🎁 P.S. If you enjoyed this post, would you give me a birthday gift?

@vboissais @RTLFrance Bonjour, vous confirmez que c’est toujours en cours ? Odeur très difficile dans Puteaux/Nanterre

L’incendie continue à Groslay. Il est responsable de l’odeur de brulé ressenti dans une large partie de l’Ile-de-France cette nuit. Ce matin un large panache de fumée continue de s’échapper d’une zone boisée où se trouvent de nombreux dépôts sauvages. @RTLFrance

Depuis quand il écoute les témoignages de ce qui se passe dans les écoles lui ?

🚨 Jon Jones allegedly performed a sex act on a male commissioner without his consent before one of his fights, according to ex-referee John McCarthy “When I went into Jon’s locker room, he says ‘I’ve got a question for you, I need somebody’ and there’s an individual there who is a black belt in BJJ and works for the commission.” “He said ‘can somebody get in the ground for me’ and he said ‘I’ll do it, I know how to roll’ so he goes down and he [Jones] says ‘put me in guard’ and then Jon decides to do a sexual act on him and says ‘what if I do this? this isn’t illegal right?’” ‘Then the guy who is on the ground, his eyes went as big as they can get like ‘what are you doing?’ and I said “Jon, knock it off.” and I helped the person up and then he said ‘I’m just joking… but really what could you do?’ and I said ‘I could disqualify you.’” “Greg Jackson came up to me afterwards and said ‘John, I’m sorry he did that.’” via @WeighingIn / h/t @ElonovMMA

@AC_MilanFR Grand connaisseur de foot !

Moi je vous le dis cash : ce soir c’est pour l’Inter. Je comprends pas cette ambiance en France où on a l’impression que c’est acquis pour Paris. Stylistiquement, Paris est le genre de club que l’Inter ADORE + une expérience opposée… j’espère me tromper.

@CasualMMAinc @THATBOYMMAGURU

Jones is slowly coming out of the closet

@fhools @DovySimuMMA Can’t wait @THATBOYMMAGURU

@DovySimuMMA MMAGURU gonna love this one

Monsieur @LexaB 1/ Alex, Alors que tu tournes une page de ta carrière chez @RMCsport j'ai envie de te rendre hommage. Même si on se voit demain pour un dernier Fighter Club (on vient de raccrocher), je veux poser ces mots ici. À la hauteur de l’impact que tu as eu sur ma vie.

@Zouoff @Zouoff

Je boycott je comprend pas cmt on peut encore parler à cet enculé de rat rat en plus il est finito mais faut croire que y’en a qui sont loyale avec les escrocs

@Robois2Boule @Morgan_Chapa @Zouoff @Lebabayaga667 @Ragnaaarr @Dark_Nightz_ @takedownmma__ C’est pas un vocal privé c’est pris de son canal public. Encore une belle magouille de 🐀 Grosse force les gars 💪

Oui, parce qu'on est en prison pour souffrir. Surement pas pour réintroduire dans la communauté citoyenne. Il faut qu'ils souffrent, parce qu'ils sont des bêtes. Et en sortant ils seront forcément des humains fonctionnels, pas du tout dangereux, ni récidivistes. Chaque jour où il reste Ministre, les droits fondamentaux reculent.

@Imai_mma Depuis que son « entourage » gère 100% sa carriere, c’est le downfall de zinzin

Mais qui gere sa com lui c'est erreur sur erreur. Celui qui le conseille sur la com est nullard

Bayrou sur Betharram : - mardi : "je n'ai jamais été informé" - mercredi : "je répète que je n'ai jamais été informé" - samedi : "j'avais demandé une inspection en 1996" Il va peut être falloir arrêter de mentir un jour... #BayrouDemission

Jon Jones is a disgusting drug addict and needs to be cut from the UFC x.com/curfig/status/…

Je ne sais pas ce qui est le plus con entre Riles qui court 24h ou moi qui regarde l'UFC 312

🇫🇷🍽️ L’entreprise Quiet a développé des assiettes… silencieuses, en verre. Un projet notamment pour la pénibilité au travail des plongeurs, et pour les personnes sensibles aux sons. 🎥 @/cestquedubon

Ca me fait pisser de rire les réactions du monde sportif institutionnel et de haut niveau. Les gars viennent chouiner alors que : 1. Tant que ça ne touchait pas le sacro-saint sport, ils ignoraient la politique macronienne qui fracasse les services publics depuis le début. 1/3
