@cremieuxrecueil Not great, but hilarious. If I was a pharma developing my marketing campaign, I would absolutely use this. We're so freaking good we just can't hide it!

This is not good: People have learned that GLP-1s are really effective, so if they're not losing weight, they know they're in the placebo group. So these people getting placebos are getting mad and leaving the trials.

@DrNadolsky For me, I see retatrutide more as an ADHD treatment than just weight loss. It has massively curtailed my impulsivity Also having the 'food noise' silenced is a huge relief.

Rapid fire glp-1 med myth busting - no difference from placebo in pancreatitis - medullary thyroid cancer seen in rats not humans (humans don’t have GLP-1 receptors there while rats do) - muscle loss is same as caloric restriction - gastric emptying slows initially but goes closer to normal after months. No strong data for permanent issues other than random lawsuits. - help with weight loss via appetite. They are not metabolism boosters (yet) - they do have multiple benefits beyond weight loss

@elonmusk Favorite feature:suggest somebody get punched - 12 hour suspension. Alright, fair. Shouldnt have said that. whole wall of people getting punched, shot, and stabbed. Straight up pornography. Posts calling for genocide. All of that is acceptable? Interesting.

@elonmusk It's a freaking echo chamber trying to drive engagement. Click on something and you get flooded with stuff like it. On the upside - it's driving me to disengage from social media. So I guess the algorithm is getting better.

@TonyLaneNV A short X post doesnt tell me enough. What's the whole story? Maybe he should never see the light of day again. Or maybe probation wouldnt have been reasonable. Social media sucks.

18 YEARS OLD… 25 YEARS IN PRISON A Texas teen just got hit with 25 years for a convenience store robbery. The judge made it clear - probation wasn’t even on the table due to his previous record while being held in jail. Said he didn’t have a real chance at success outside. His family broke down in court as the sentence was handed down. At 18… your whole life is just starting - But one decision can change everything forever. Do you think this sentence fits the crime… or is it too much? ⬇️ 🇺🇸

Finished "There Is No Antimemetic Devision" adn convinced my wife to read it to. Absolutely loved it. It only contains a few ideas but they're bangers. Just the idea of an antimeme is mind bending. Ironically, I can't stop thinking about it. In case you want to read it for yourself: a.co/d/05Y4IKks

@FurkanGozukara Funny. They just stole the idea from Big Top. Difference is: Big Top has the US Navy to collect the tolls. What’s Iran got? A goat and some pool floaties?

Brilliant move by Iran. They are planning to levy a 10% toll on all ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz. This will generate $73 billion a year, completely offsetting US sanctions and paying for war damages. Checkmate.

It hit me during the plandemic. We live on an information warfare battlefield. You cannot trust any information you get from any source. Scary situation. For all I know Iran doesn't exist and it's a cosplay put on to screw with me.

@lady_valor_07 Fuck! You’re telling me I could have been paid to do what I did for free? Just my damn luck. If I reinstall it, can I still get paid to uninstall it again?

@Schwalm5132 Cool, cool. We should rename it the Straight of America and make it a 'toll road'. Want to use it: pay us. American tankers take petro to American refineries are free. Everybody else can pay.

We are not an empire. We are a powerhouse all by ourselves. One thing you find out when you get older is who your true friends are and who are the people just riding your coat tails. In my opinion, I'm appreciative to every country who has shown their true colors because we have been saying "we are friends" with them for far too long. If you have ever had a moment like this, then you totally can appreciate what is about to happen next. Here's to the true friends that show up to help bury the bodies, no questions asked. 🍻🍻🍺🍺🍺

@ShadowofEzra Trump should turn it into the Straight of America and charge everybody a toll to use it. American tankers taking petroleum to American refineries get a free pass of course. Don't want to help? Cool, cool. You pay. So tired of these mooches.

The European Union has rejected President Trump’s call for allied naval support to secure the Strait of Hormuz. The European Union says, “This is not Europe’s war,” and is basically telling the United States, “You’re on your own.” “Nobody wants to go actively into this war.”

@marlowxbt I suppose stories like this are healthier than jumping on pornhub to spank one out to.

AWS sent me a $47 bill. I haven't used AWS in 8 months. Logged in to shut it down. Found one EC2 instance running. Micro. $0.0058 per hour. Someone spun it up in February using my old credentials I forgot to rotate. I was about to terminate it. Then opened the logs. A bot. Running 24/7 since February. Connected to Binance WebSocket and a prediction platform API. Executing trades every 3 minutes. I followed the wallet address from the config file. 0x732F1. $339,140 profit. 38,945 predictions. Joined February 2026. Bio: there are no socials/websites related to this profile. → Wallet: t.me/PolyGunSniperB… Someone used my forgotten $47/month server to run a bot that made $339K. 38,945 trades. 800 per day. BTC moves on Binance. Platform lags 25 seconds. Bot buys old price. Collects $1. Repeat. The code was 26 lines of Python. Clean. No comments. No readme. Just a WebSocket listener, a price comparison and a buy function with a 15 second sleep timer. $339K profit on a $47 monthly server bill. ROI on the server alone: 721,574%. I checked the SSH login history. One IP address. Vietnam. Logged in once in February. Never again. Set the bot. Left. Someone halfway across the world found my exposed credentials, didn't steal my data, didn't mine anything. Just quietly parked a 26 line script on my cheapest server and let it print. I didn't terminate the instance. Changed the password. Sat there reading the logs for 2 hours. The bot is still running. The wallet is still active. $113K in open positions right now. My $47 AWS bill just became the most profitable invoice I never meant to pay.

@drmarlonperalta Embrace the power of AND - Reta AND BPC-157. BPC is a true wonder. Better sleep, everything just heals, you feel like moving. What's not to like? Throw in Reta, lose weight, remove mechanical stress. Everything just gets better. Live in the future!

I know this sounds crazy but… BPC-157 is still the most underrated peptide. You can go from fat to fit with retatrutide, but nothing compares to being pain-free.

Got up at 5. Slept amazing. Creatinine and straight to the gym. Didnt feel like doing back squats. Did over head instead. Focused on testing to get deep. Got close, but still not good enough. Running to store. Over whelming sense of “fuck yeah!”. Sitting here praying and thanking God for the day to come. This is going to be awesome.
