@kalsoom82 The show was pretty mid

Between Pakistan mediating talks between the U.S. and Iran, Riz Ahmed's incredible show Bait on Amazon Prime (w/ amaaazing music by the likes of @arooj_aftab & @rukhsanakartoos) & now the potential acquisition of Cursor by SpaceX for $60B, a company co-founded by Pakistani Sualeh Asif, what a good time to be Pakistani 🥲🇵🇰 dawn.com/news/1994327

Respectfully, the Netflix analogy is the problem, not the pitch. Netflix won by being the best distribution layer for a commodity. The entire premise of modern telehealth is that medicine should work the same way: more drugs, faster, cheaper, with fewer gates. That framing is exactly how the category ended up looking less like healthcare and more like a pill mill with good design. Our patients at Healthspan don’t need a bigger GLP-1 catalog. They need someone looking at their labs, their training, their protein, their sleep and titrating an evidence-based protocol accordingly. That’s not a distribution problem. It’s a care problem. And this post is a pretty blunt admission of where the industry’s priorities actually sit. Adding more SKUs is easy. Looking after a patient comprehensively is hard. Most companies in the space have quietly picked the former and dressed it up as the latter.

The incentive structure in telemedicine longevity is fundamentally broken. When revenue scales with prescription volume, the question shifts from "does this patient need this intervention?" to "can we convert this patient?" That's e-commerce with prescription requirements. It's not care. It's a pill mill. What's missing: Does this patient actually need this medication/supplement/peptide? What biological deficit are we addressing? How will we know if it's working? GLP-1 agonists and growth hormone secretagogues aren't supplements. They modulate core metabolic pathways. Many of the peptides shouldn't be taken chronically, for example. But the business models of these companies will treat them as chronically prescribed interventions for retention purposes. It's irresponsible. No baseline biomarkers or monitoring protocols. Care requires the opposite of what scales: decisions based on individual biology, narrower intervention selection, and continuous monitoring to validate response. That model is human-intensive. It requires clinicians who understand how these compounds map to aging mechanisms. That's hard. It takes work to have your own clinical team, who check-in with patients regularly, and has intrinsic interest in geroscience. And, yes, software can absolutely help clinical teams in measuring the responsiveness of interventions, but that's not what the current telemedicine offerings are doing in the pill mill model. We've spent the last year building the alternative at Healthspan: matching interventions to biological endpoints. It's also hard. We've hired clinicians who think about aging through the metabolic overdrive framework that underpins our philosophy. It's expensive, and it requires enormous logistical work to meet with patients regularly. It's easy to dole out meds. It's much harder to actually provide care.

@theralkia Fat mogging

I have an irrational hatred toward this genre of books.

@stevenleflar DM me I can help gethealthspan.com

Still need a script to buy them right? My doctor wouldn’t even write me a script for testosterone even though my levels wouldn’t change from 240 even after 6 months of life changing changes. He cited old data that the FDA said isn’t true, but he’s going to write a script for pep’s?

Today, we took long-overdue action to restore science, accountability, and the rule of law. In September 2023, the Biden FDA pushed a number of peptides into Category 2 — “Bulk Drug Substances that Raise Significant Safety Risks” — driving a dangerous black market that puts Americans at risk. Now, after nominators withdrew 12 peptides, the FDA will remove them from Category 2 and will bring them to PCAC at its next two meetings, beginning in July—where independent experts will rigorously evaluate each substance on its scientific merits using full clinical, pharmacological, and safety evidence. • BPC-157 • Thymosin beta-4 fragment (LKKTETQ) • Epitalon • GHK-Cu (injectable) • MOTS-c • DSIP (Emideltide) • Dihexa Acetate • Ibutamoren Mesylate • Melanotan II • KPV • Semax (heptapeptide) • Cathelicidin LL-37 This action begins to restore regulated access and will immediately begin shifting demand away from the black market. We will follow the science, enforce the law, and deliver the clarity patients, providers, and pharmacies deserve.

this is absolutely the greatest video of all time

@ragecvlt Jung never wrote this no source exists. But the idea is real: when shadow work doesn’t happen, the defenses stop being adaptive and become identity. Worth saying accurately rather than inventing a citation for it.

Carl Jung wrote in 1933: The man who does not face his shadow by 35 does not improve. He calcifies. The defense becomes the personality.

Carl Jung on Basic factors making for happiness #3 is essential to awakening, btw I love people who carry with them a sense of wonder, and can enter into a state of awe by simply contemplating the existence of things. Essentially, those who actively possess with them, that which Blake put so eloquently: “To see a World in a Grain of Sand And a Heaven in a Wild Flower Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand And Eternity in an hour”
