@jonatanpallesen You are a hysterical moron and essentially a feminist.
@jonatanpallesen The very first sentence describes the direct involvement of women. Why the fuck is a right-wing nationalist incapable of not defaulting to this gynocentric framing?

If NWOG/NDOG still dey do you somehow and you've been pretending to understand.

Don't stress, this 5-minute thread will finally save you from the confusion. Read this carefully

๐Ÿงต๐Ÿงต๐Ÿงต Image
If you're new in the forex market and you keep hearing NWOG and NDOG, just relax.

Those terms confuse people, not just you.
Most traders hear them every week but don't really understand how they move the market.

Let me break it down in a simple way Image
NWOG (NEW WEEK OPENING GAP)

It's the difference btw last week's close and the new week's open.
They're some activities that happens during the weekend like news, sentiment, etc

so when the market opens, price might jump instead of continuing normally. That jump creates the gapImage

Want to live longer, think clearer, age slower, and dodge chronic disease?

Build muscle.

Not because it looks good,
but because every extra kilogram of muscle literally makes you harder to kill.

What the research shows

+1 kg of muscle โ†’ lower risk of death
People with the most muscle had a lower mortality than those with the least.

Low muscle = risk of age related brain disease risk
Smaller muscles = higher dementia risk
Sarcopenia nearly triples Alzheimerโ€™s risk.
Muscle protects the brain.

Cancer? Muscle matters
Strength training = lower cancer risk
Losing lean mass increases cancer death risk

Heart health
More muscle = lower cardiovascular events
Your biceps may be better than your blood pressure meds.

Type 2 Diabetes
Strength training = lower diabetes risk
Muscle is where glucose goes. No muscle? No glucose control.

Why muscle is a longevity organ

Muscle releases myokines hormone-like signals that:

Reduce inflammation
Protect the brain
Improve insulin sensitivity
Support blood vessels
Boost metabolic health

The more muscle you have, the more of these protective molecules your body makes.

The crazy part
You donโ€™t need dramatic gains.
Just +1% muscle per year (totally doable with strength training) compounds into massive risk reduction over a decade.
Small improvements โ†’ huge protection.
A major 2025 study people with higher lean body mass (i.e. more muscle/lean tissue compared to fat) had a significantly lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40551720/

Muscle is more than strength, Itโ€™s a metabolic organ
Your muscles donโ€™t just move your body they protect your metabolism. When you strength train, your muscles release special hormones and signals that help your body manage sugar, burn fat, and use energy more efficiently. That means:
More muscle = better metabolic health
Less muscle = higher risk of obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes
Doctors now recommend strength training not just for athletes, but as essential medicine for ageing well.

Introducing: Strengthspan
Just like lifespan is how long you live, strengthspan is how long you stay strong and functional. The longer your strengthspan, the more likely you are to:
Live independently, Avoid lifestyle diseases
,Maintain mobility as you age
and enjoy a higher quality of life
Strength isnโ€™t something you should start worrying about at 65, itโ€™s something you build now, little by little, and protect for life.

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40784602/
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38754987/
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39948829
When the body
faces illness, injury, surgery, or any major stress, it draws on muscle to supply amino acids and proteins needed to:
* Repair damaged tissues
* Support the immune system
* Fight inflammation
* Maintain vital organs
Without this reserve, the body is forced to break itself down.

Why muscle matters during illness

ICU patients can lose 15โ€“20% of their muscle in just one week.
Thatโ€™s like aging several decades in days.
This massive muscle loss leads to:
โŒ slower recovery
โŒ prolonged weakness
โŒ higher risk of complications
โŒ poorer survival rates
But hereโ€™s the good news:
Patients who enter illness, surgery, or hospitalization with more muscle recover faster and experience up to 75% less long-term impairment months later.

Every time, there is a disease outbreak of unknown origin, authorities quickly and without evidence assume a natural origin, even if it requires a convoluted story. A truck driver with a contaminated sandwich, eaten by a pig. ๐Ÿคก At least theyโ€™re now investigating the labs. ๐Ÿงต Image
Did anyone report seeing a truck driver? Did anyone report seeing a sandwich? When itโ€™s zoonosis, authorities will often just throw out an outlandish scenario and assume it to be true. This is not the first time this has happened. 2/ reuters.com/business/healtโ€ฆ

@DiggingInTheDi1 @frogposterIRE @SmorglesBord This stuff is all downstream of a charlatan who openly fabricated IQ data on China, glossing over how rural China produced Africa tier IQ scores and submitted a fraudulent data set on penis size to a major behavior genetics journal that's NEVER BEEN RETRACTED.

I just think stuff like this cartoonish bullshit and you're an incorrigible retard if you believe it! "The IQ of 76 is genotypic and they're dumber than Koko the Gorilla." Get fucked.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ THE 2025 INDIAโ€“RUSSIA RESET: 12 MEGA DEALS THAT WILL CHANGE GLOBAL GEOPOLITICS FOREVER.

๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ”ฅ The 2025 Indiaโ€“Russia Summit wasnโ€™t just another diplomatic meeting it quietly triggered one of the biggest strategic resets of this decade.

From trade to defence, from shipping to labour mobility, from pharma to fertilizers, both nations signed 12 major agreements that will directly shape the future of their partnership and influence global geopolitics in a big way.

๐Ÿค๐Ÿ“œ This thread breaks down each sector with absolute clarity:
โœ”๏ธ What the agreement is
โœ”๏ธ What it actually means
โœ”๏ธ Its impact on Indiaโ€“Russia relations & ordinary citizens
โœ”๏ธ And how it shifts the global geopolitical balance

๐Ÿš€ These arenโ€™t promises.
These arenโ€™t proposals.
These are signed outcomes and they are already reshaping the world order.

Letโ€™s decode the Indiaโ€“Russia Reset 2025. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ

Sector: Energy & Fuel Security โ›ฝโšก๐Ÿ”ฅ

โ—Commitment / Agreement (official statement):

Russiaโ€™s commitment to supply oil (and possibly other energy) to India without interruption / restriction โ€”as stated by the Russian leadership during the summit.

โ—Meaning:
Political assurance that Russia will remain a dependable energy supplier to India, despite global sanctions on Russia and volatility in global energy markets.
Impact on Indiaโ€“Russia ties & population:

Energy security for India stable crude supply helps keep fuel prices more manageable, aids economic stability.

Strengthened strategic trust: Russia sees India as reliable customer, India gains a stable source outside troubled global markets.

โ—Impact on global geopolitics: ๐ŸŒ

Undermines Western leverage: by maintaining energy ties with Russia, India reduces the impact of Western sanctions on Russia.

Signals to global markets that alternate energy corridors (outside Gulf / Middle East / Western-dominated supply) are viable.

May encourage other energy-importing countries especially in Asia/Africa to follow Indiaโ€™s example, reshaping global energy trade alignments.

Sector: Economy & Trade ๐Ÿ’ผ๐Ÿ“Š

โ—Agreement:

Economic Cooperation Roadmap till 2030 (Strategic Economic Programme)

โ—Meaning:

โ—Impact on global geopolitics: ๐ŸŒ

Strengthens an โ€œalternateโ€ trade axis outside of Western-dominated systems.
