More energy at 44 than I had at 34! Half the caffeine and zero Adderall which I relied on all through my 30’s Don’t settle for the status quo of managed decline 💪

I get asked alot what pens are the best... but honestly... they all work. Its more a personal preference... how smoothly it pushes... with clicks, without clicks, how much pressure, but they all work. Maybe one is slightly more accurate than another... but the difference is neglible, and you can have variation between factories for the same pen. So don't overthink it. Buy one that looks good and you can afford.

"SpaceX ended up being the best investment I'll probably ever make. It's completely changed the trajectory of my life." Rockets were blowing up on the launchpad when @LukeNosek convinced Cyan Banister (@cyantist) to go all-in on SpaceX: Nosek (@LukeNosek), co-founder of PayPal & Founders Fund, was one of SpaceX's earliest believers. He led Founders Fund's $20M investment in 2008 & has served on the board ever since. Today he's estimated to own a .22% stake worth more than $4B at the $1.77T IPO price. Here's how he got Cyan in: "He went to college with my husband Scott Banister & Max Levchin (@mlevchin). They met in a computer lab back at University of Illinois." "Luke formed a relationship with @elonmusk, & I would say probably was his strongest second believer. I've never seen anyone champion a company or a person with more heart than Luke." "He came over to our house. He's a very emphatic person. Wears these Vibram shoes, & gets on the floor, & he's like, 'Banisters, I need you to dig through your couches, whatever money you have that's spare. Anything liquid you have, I need it. SpaceX needs it.'" "At this time, the rockets were blowing up on the launchpad. People all around were just like, private citizens have no business in space, and that's why it's failing." "I had just exited from IronPort. I had my first liquidity event. So Luke and Scott convinced me to put everything that I made in IronPort, when we sold to Cisco, into SpaceX." "I just literally put all my chips on a color & just let it ride for 20-some odd years now." "It ended up being the best investment I'll probably ever make in my life. It's completely changed the trajectory of my life."

……..@ShadySGc·
I usually buy 20mg vials because they’re the best value. When I was researching at 2mg nightly, each vial was gone in about 10 days, so stability was never something I had to think about. Recently I switched to 1mg nightly, which means a reconstituted vial is in the fridge for almost 3 weeks. Around day 16-17 I started noticing visible changes in the solution that I hadn’t seen before. I know this isn’t the most stable peptide once reconstituted, so I’d rather not risk wasting the last few milligrams trying to stretch a vial. If you’re planning to research around 1mg/day, I’d honestly recommend buying 10mg vials instead. They still offer great value, and you’ll finish each vial sooner instead of pushing the storage time. I’ve found 10mg vials from Peptide Supply Co. for as low as $36 each with discounts, which makes the smaller size an easy choice.

I was so sharp and so ready for this fight I cannot believe what has happened. The talk of me being off while walking in to the fight is nonsense. I was calm, ready, and confident. I am in shock what has taken place. The devil is literally staring at me right in front of my face here. I am not engaging. I will be at church tomorrow. I will overcome this. I will not be deterred. I will return.

The Strange Science of the Copper Peptide 1/4) GHK-Cu is among the weirdest peptides... once you understand how it works. First, consider this: Copper is an element that’s essential for human biology. It sits at the core of enzymes involved in collagen production + antioxidant defenses+ mitochondrial metabolism. And naturally, GHK-Cu levels decline with age, falling by over 50% between ages 20 and 60. But here’s the catch: You can’t just give the body free copper. Free copper ions can accelerate oxidative stress and cellular aging. So, on one hand, you need copper for proper metabolic health and longevity… but on the other hand, excess free copper can actually promote aging. GHK-Cu appears to solve this problem.

We thought about this... but one vial will last at least two months for most, and thats for multiple peptides. We didn't want anyone panic buying... the market will correct, so we limited to one per customer and also one every 30-days. This way we can serve the greatest number of customers. I know some people might not agree, but we really wanted to be able to sever the greatest number of people.
thePeptidePlug.ai@peptideplug_ai

Limit one per customer per month, 800+ in stock. This seems like a solid solution to current supply issues. Just grab one with your peptides. Simple. “Solution” pun intended :) crushresearch.shop/product/antimi…

@vegascarmen_ “Non Negotiable”? I just ignore it and it goes away. Also, hitting critical is just wasting their time trying to fix something that doesn’t need to be fixed. Just ignore it. Well at least I can on my 2023. Maybe the newer cars have something different. Idk…

Unpopular opinion? I absolutely hate this non-negotiable exit interview every single time I disengage FSD. Can’t they see, if I disengage in a parking lot, it’s probably cause I’m parking? To protest, I’ve started hitting critical every time. Stop giving me this pls 🙏
