Laundromat/Dry Cleaner SEO Checklist for BeginnersThis checklist is designed for business owners new to SEO (Search Engine Optimization). SEO helps your website and Google Business Profile show up higher in search results when people look for services like yours. We'll explain each section simply, and each item includes a short note on why it matters and how to do it. Start with the basics and work your way down. Tools like Google Search Console (free) can help you track progress. Google Business Profile OptimizationYour Google Business Profile (GBP) is the free listing that appears in Google Maps and local searches. It's like your online storefront—keep it accurate and complete to attract more customers.
Choose the best main category (dry cleaner or laundromat) based on what makes you the most money Why? Google uses this to match your business to searches. If laundromat services bring in more revenue, switch to that for better visibility. Check and update in your GBP dashboard.
Make sure there's only one Better Business Bureau (BBB) profile (delete extras) Why? Duplicates confuse Google and customers. Search for your business on BBB.org and contact them to merge or remove old ones.
Double-check that your name, address, phone, and website match everywhere online Why? Inconsistent info hurts your rankings. Use tools like Moz Local (free scan) to check listings on other sites.
List all your services in your GBP Why? This helps Google show your profile for specific searches like "wash and fold near me." Add them in the "Services" section of your GBP.

Write a full description using up to 750 characters Why? A detailed description with keywords (like your services and location) improves search relevance. Include what makes your business unique, like "eco-friendly dry cleaning."
Add your service areas if you do pickups or deliveries Why? This tells Google you serve nearby areas, expanding your reach. Enter cities or zip codes in GBP settings.
Website Technical SEOTechnical SEO fixes the "behind-the-scenes" stuff on your site so Google can understand and rank it better. If you're using WordPress, plugins like Yoast can help, but don't rely on defaults—customize them.
Add meta descriptions to every page (at least 160 characters) Why? These are the snippets shown in search results. They encourage clicks. Use Yoast or similar to add them, including keywords like "affordable laundromat in [city]."

Verify all important pages are indexed by Google Why? Indexed means Google knows about them. Use "site:yourwebsite.com" in Google search to check. Submit your sitemap in Google Search Console if pages are missing.
Remove useless pages from Google's index (like plain review pages) Why? Low-quality pages can drag down your site. Use robots.txt or noindex tags in Yoast to hide them.
Add better schema markup (beyond basic plugins) Why? Schema is code that explains your business to Google (e.g., hours, services). Use free tools like Google's Structured Data Markup Helper.
Include contact info and service areas in schema Why? Helps Google show your business in local searches. Add to your homepage code.

Add Google Knowledge Graph IDs (property values) to schema Why? Connects your business to Google's database for better understanding. Search for your business in Google to find IDs.
List your services in schema markup Why? Makes services like "dry cleaning" easier for Google to recognize. Include prices if possible.
Use local business schema on location pages Why? Boosts local rankings. Apply to pages about your physical store.

Fix any missing HTML tags (like headings or lists) Why? Proper structure helps Google read your content. Run a free audit with tools like Screaming Frog.
Add descriptive alt text to all images Why? Helps with image searches and accessibility. Describe the image with keywords, e.g., "modern laundromat machines in [city]."
Website Content & StructureGood content keeps visitors on your site and signals to Google that you're helpful. Structure makes it easy to navigate.
Create a footer with your contact details (phone, email, address) Why? Appears on every page for easy access. Add it in your website editor.

Link to your social media profiles in the footer (even if you don't post often) Why? Builds trust and helps Google connect your online presence.
Put links to key pages (like services or contact) in the footer Why? Improves navigation and helps Google crawl your site faster.
Add Terms of Service and Privacy Policy pages Why? Required for trust and some ads. Use free templates online and customize.
Replace old or mismatched photos Why? Fresh images build credibility. Use high-quality photos of your actual location.

Group content into "silos" by service (e.g., one section for laundromat, one for dry cleaning) Why? Organizes your site thematically for better rankings. Link related pages together.
Write helpful blog posts related to your main services Why? Attracts visitors searching for tips (e.g., "how to wash delicates"). Use keywords naturally.
Link blog posts back to your main service pages Why? Passes "link juice" to important pages, boosting their rankings.
Show reviews with stars and keywords from customers Why? Improves trust and clicks. Pull from Google reviews and highlight ones mentioning services.
Off-Page SEOThis is about building your reputation outside your site, like getting mentioned elsewhere online.
Send out a press release to 250+ news sites Why? Gets backlinks from reputable domains, improving authority. Use services like EIN Presswire.

Track new websites linking to yours Why? More quality links mean higher rankings. Use Ahrefs or SEMrush (free trials available).
Watch what competitors do for links Why? Learn from them to get similar opportunities.
Keep adding blog content after setup Why? Fresh content signals an active site to Google.
Advanced Schema ImplementationSchema is like labels for Google. Start simple, then add more.

Research and add full JSON-LD code to your site Why? Better than basic plugins. Use free generators online.
Include details about the owner (like education) in schema Why? Builds credibility. Add to business schema.
Put services and price ranges in schema Why? Helps in rich results (stars in search).

Link related things (entities) in schema Why? Helps Google understand connections, like services to locations.
Ongoing OptimizationSEO isn't one-time—keep checking and improving.
Run site reports monthly to spot issues Why? Tools like Google Analytics show what's working.
Check GBP and Search Console for how people search for you Why? Adjust keywords based on real data.

Amazing! Placing mice in low air pressure every other day slows hair loss, weight gain, osteoporosis & extends median lifespan by 12%. Ascribed to the killing of senescent, zombie cells

Could exercise, high altitude, or a drug have similar benefits? Let’s dig in🧵 Image
Firstly, hypobaric (low) pressure should not to be confused with hyper-baric oxygen therapy (HBOT), which is also studied by longevity researchers, though there may be overlapping hormetic mechanisms between the two @NaturePortfolio
I’ve always wondered if living at a high altitude is healthier, but the evidence is weak. Maybe it needs to be pulsed: high pressure -> low pressure -> high pressure -> low pressure to induce hormesis Image

A new study in Journal of Clinical Medicine shows that after COVID-19, many patients have persistent impairment of oxygen transfer in the lungs (DLCO/KCO) - lasting 12 to 22 months, even when basic spirometry looks almost normal🧵
Key point?
FEV1 remains largely stable, while FVC improves only slowly over time.
This doesn’t look like classic airway obstruction. It points instead to restrictive and diffusion-level damage.
In simple terms.
Patients may breathe fine on spirometry, yet oxygen doesn’t pass efficiently from the lungs into the blood.

🧵🚨 | En la madrugada del sábado 3 de enero, el presidente de 🇻🇪 #NicolasMaduro fue capturado por tropas del ejército de los 🇺🇸 y trasladado a ese país con el objeto de someterlo a la justicia norteamericana, de la que se halla prófugo. La extracción en territorio extranjero de un fugitivo de la justicia plantea una importante cuestión constitucional: ¿PUEDEN LOS TRIBUNALES NORTEAMERICANOS JUZGAR A UN ACUSADO LLEVADO ILEGALMENTE ANTE SUS ESTRADOS?
Abro 🧵 1/42
2.- Preliminarmente, corresponde observar que Nicolás Maduro tiene una causa penal abierta ante el juzgado federal del distrito Sur de Nueva York (uno de los 13 juzgados federales originales de los 🇺🇸, creado por la famosa Judiciary Act de 1789 y que comenzó a funcionar 6 meses antes que la Suprema Corte) a cargo del juez federal Alvin Hellerstein 👇Image
3.- El 26 de marzo de 2020 los fiscales acusaron formalmente a Maduro, su esposa Cilia Flores, y otros trece consortes de causa (entre los que se encuentran Diosdado Cabello @dcabellor y el hijo de Maduro, @nicmaduroguerra) de cuatro cargos:
1⃣ Conspiración de narcoterrorismo.
2⃣Conspiración para importar cocaína.
3⃣Posesión de ametralladoras y dispositivos destructivos.
4⃣Conspiración para poseer ametralladoras y dispositivos destructivos contra Estados Unidos.

➡️ En el procedimiento penal federal norteamericano, la acusación hecha por un Gran Jurado federal obliga al acusado a comparecer personalmente ante el Tribunal para que se le lean los cargos. Una vez que comparece, queda a criterio del juez decidir si lo deja seguir o no el proceso en libertad. Pero su incomparecencia a la audiencia de lectura de cargos lo transforma automáticamente en un prófugo de la justicia norteamericana.

Habiendo quedado prófugo de la justicia, el 27 de diciembre de 2021 el Departamento de Estado ofreció una recompensa por Maduro de USD 15 millones. El 10 de enero de 2025, elevó el monto a 25 y, finalmente, el 7 de agosto la extendió a USD 50 millones (state.gov/nicolas-maduro…).

📌| El escrito completo de la acusación (Indictment) pueden leerlo acá: justice.gov/opa/media/1422…

📍En los últimos días, el Departamento de Justicia modificó parcialmente la plataforma fáctica de la acusación, retirando de las imputaciones el hecho de ser el jefe de un cartel de narcotráfico (el llamado “Cartel de los Soles”). Sin embargo, este cambio en el relato de los hechos no hizo caer ninguno de los 4 cargos principales que sostienen la acusación.Image

Primal Wound and Genital Mutilation

Our most foundational experiences of the world are not intellectual, but visceral and biological.

If the foundation of the house is cracked, it doesn't matter how beautiful the curtains are; the structure will eventually lean toward chaos.
Let's connect the micro (the individual body) to the macro (global conflict and genocide) through the lens of neurobiology and social psychology.

1. The Neurobiological Foundation: The "Broken" Compass
The argument that there are "more important problems" than a piece of penis skin ignores that human behavior is driven by the nervous system.

Chronic, pre-verbal trauma—like circumcision—rewires the amygdala (the brain's fear center).

1. Today's lesson comes from my forum.

Dr. Rob asks me the following:

" Jack, based on your recent cancer blogs and critique of Seyfrieds Metabolic and Levin‘s bioelectric models - it’s clear your photo bioelectric framework is correct.

A Photo-Bioelectric Coordination Hypothesis of Cancer

I propose a framework in which cancer represents a system-level collapse of photo-bioelectric coordination, rather than a primary genetic, metabolic, or bioelectric disease. In this model, organismal integrity depends on a coordinated Organ Trinity:

The Organ Trinity: Light, Shadow, and Darkness

In health, organismal integrity depends on coordination between these three central organs, each operating in a distinct but complementary energetic mode:

The hypothalamus functions as a photonic interpreter. It translates environmental light into biological time, establishing circadian phase and temporal order. This is the domain of Light - timing, anticipation, and synchrony.

The liver acts as a photoelectric buffer and decision hub. It integrates metabolic load, redox stress, toxins, and fuels, determining whether the organism should proceed, pause, or shift strategy. This is the domain of Shadow - adaptation, buffering, and reversible retreat.

The heart provides continuous charge circulation. Its uninterrupted electrical and mechanical activity sustains organism-wide coherence and regenerative safety. This is the domain of Darkness—ongoing work, continuity, and renewal.

These organs are coordinated through nested signalling layers: photonic information (including circadian light and UPEs), photoelectric transduction (via cytochrome c oxidase, heme proteins, and melanin-like systems), and organism-wide DC bioelectric fields consistent with Becker's work on the perineural system and endogenous DCs..
2. Dr. Rob's questions continue.....

"Photons as Primary Biological Drivers

This framework explicitly positions photons as the primary informational input in biology, with bioelectricity emerging downstream of photoelectric transduction. Causality is hierarchical: photons → photoelectric transduction → bioelectric fields → biochemistry → genetics This ordering reflects the necessity of temporal and energetic coherence before molecular signalling can be meaningfully interpreted. Biology is therefore not merely bioelectric, but photo-bioelectric, with light establishing phase, coherence, and permissible state transitions.

The Liver as a Central Photoelectric Organ

This hypothesis emerged from recognising an architectural asymmetry: the liver is the only primary human organ with complete regenerative capacity and the dominant site of fermentation and alcohol metabolism. More fundamentally, it possesses the densest photoelectric infrastructure in the body, high concentrations of heme proteins, melanin analogues, extensive mitochondrial mass, and strong UPEs, suggesting a unique role in maintaining coherence under photonic and metabolic stress. Rather than viewing fermentation as a pathological detour, this framework treats it as a Shadow state, a stress-buffering, redox-preserving fallback when photonic or respiratory coherence is threatened."Image
3. Dr. Rob continues....

"Cancer as Photo-Bioelectric Coordination Failure

Three Questions Every Cell Once Asked:

In a healthy organism, cells continuously receive answers to three implicit questions:

When should this happen?
(answered by photonic timing via the hypothalamus)

Should this happen?
(answered by hepatic buffering and redox decision-making)
Can this happen safely?
(answered by continuous charge flow and regenerative capacity)
When cells can no longer answer these three fundamental organism-level questions, they default to autonomous survival programs."

Post-vaccination syndrome (PVS), also referred to as post-acute sequelae following COVID-19 vaccination, describes a set of persistent symptoms reported by a subset of individuals after receiving mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. Emerging research from 2022–2026 explores potential biological mechanisms behind these symptoms in affected people. This overview synthesizes peer-reviewed evidence, including studies on spike protein dynamics, microclots, prion-like elements, immune changes, and manufacturing concerns. It draws from a range of sources, to provide a balanced view. Note that PVS remains understudied and is not formally recognized by major health authorities like the FDA or WHO, but preliminary data suggest real physiological changes in some cases. I dont know anyone who regrets not taking the jabs :)
Understanding Post-Vaccination Syndrome: A Science-Based Overview

When COVID-19 mRNA vaccines were introduced, they were designed to deliver temporary instructions for cells to produce the spike protein, triggering an immune response. However, emerging research suggests that for some individuals, this process may not follow the expected trajectory. This has led researchers to investigate a constellation of symptoms now being studied as "post-vaccination syndrome" or "post-acute sequelae" following vaccination.

This explanation draws from peer-reviewed research published between 2022 and 2026 to help understand what scientists are currently investigating.
Core Concepts

1. Spike Protein Persistence

The Expected Process:
After mRNA vaccination, the spike protein should be cleared from the body
within days to weeks. Think of it like a temporary instruction manual that
gets used and discarded.

What Research Shows:
Studies indicate that for some people, spike protein may persist far
longer than anticipated:

"Expression of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in cerebral arteries"
(pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40184822/) detected spike protein in
brain blood vessels months after vaccination. Similarly,
news.yale.edu/2025/02/19/imm…
indicate-future-research-directions is investigating persistent spike
protein in individuals with post-vaccination syndrome.

A nature.com/articles/s4154… confirmed mRNA can
persist up to 30 days, while
cell.com/cell-host-micr…
found spike protein at the skull-meninges-brain interface, potentially
linked to ongoing neuroinflammation.

Analogy: Imagine leaving your car running after you arrive at your
destination. The engine (spike protein) was meant to shut off, but it's
still idling—and in some cases, revving—in ways that may cause problems.

So those bastards celebrate once again deceit, killing and hating:

Haman was a non-Jew. In the story of Purim, he is identified as a high-ranking Persian official, but his ancestry is the key to why he is considered the ultimate "villain" in Jewish tradition.
The Book of Esther refers to him as Haman the Agagite. Here is why that specific detail is so important:

He was an Amalekite
According to Jewish tradition and the text, being an "Agagite" means Haman was a descendant of Agag, the King of the Amalekites.
The Amalekites were the ancient, "eternal" enemies of the Jewish people.

Because of this, Haman isn't just a random Persian official; he represents the projection of the deep-seated, generational hatred of Jews toward non Jews.

Help! nobody sees me and I get no engagement from people anymore.
This is happening more and more on here, due to how they have people in tiered groups.
As such, you may think your tweets are never seen by people and you get fewer interactions than ever, but there are ways to break out of it. 👇🏻Image
This is what Google says about it:
“Not being seen on social media happens due to algorithms hiding posts, posting infrequent/unengaging (sic) content, or people being busy/preferring to lurk, but you can improve visibility by posting consistently, using relevant hashtags, engaging with others (like the "5x5x5 method"), experimenting with content, and going live/guesting to tap into new audiences.
For personal use, it can also stem from self-censorship, but sometimes a strategic break or prioritising real-life connection is best”
1, Forget really big accounts. They won’t help you – unless there’s something in it for themselves. Not always, but most of the time they won’t. So, stop chasing them.

Very interesting result! What struck me most: nobody picked “depends”. I think that’s the right answer, but the question is, of course, "on what". To answer this, let's start with some general thoughts about the role of voters and interst groups in policymaking.
Simplifying crudely, think of both as "principals" that can impose political losses on a policymaker when (s)he deviates from their "bliss point", their ideal.
In climate policy, two forces change which constraint binds as decarbonisation deepens:
1. Rising marginal adjustment
costs as stringency increases (low-hanging fruit are reaped).
2. Cost incidence visibility / attribution: whether households/voters experience costs as direct, frequent, and clearly attributable to some climate policy (e.g. a carbon tax).

🧵Kiev e Chisnau stringono l'assedio alla Transnistria. La pressione si è trasformata in blocco economico. Kiev e Chisnau sono determinati a cancellare de facto gli accordi del 92 e rimuovere la presenza russa nella regione.

The Psychological Impact of Non-Therapeutic Neonatal GENITAL MUTILATION
medical professionals and psychological stewards, must address the persistent "blind spot" in the ethical framework regarding neonatal genital mutilation.
We cannot claim to value Informed Consent and Child Welfare while simultaneously exempting ancient ritual from modern clinical standards.
Every human being possesses an inherent right to bodily integrity.
In any psychiatric or medical context, this would be labeled as unnecessary trauma inflicted upon a captive patient.
The neonatal brain is not a "blank slate" that forgets pain; it is a hyper-plastic recorder.

There's a 50% chance a parasite is in you right now.

Here's everything you know about them & how to protect yourself.

(🧵1/16)Image
SIGNS of a parasite:

- Bloating
- Gas (especially after meals)
- Constipation or diarrhea
- Undigested food in stool
- Brain fog
- Anxiety or irritability
- Fatigue
- Iron-deficiency anemia
- Weight loss or unexplained weight gain
- Nutrient deficiencies despite eating well
- Histamine intolerance
- Food sensitivities
- Frequent infections
- Skin rashes or itching
- Muscle or joint pain

All of these symptoms can be indicative of, but are not exclusive to, parasites.

The KEY indicators that should make you think parasite over other factors:

☆ Itchiness - especially your butt
☆ Symptoms worsening at night (1-3 AM)
☆ Worsening at full moons
☆ Symptoms appear after traveling (esp to southeast Asia, Africa,
caribbean)
☆ Teeth grinding
☆ You see worms in your poop

(2/16)Image
Parasites are highly prevalent in mental + cognitive disorders.

A new meta-analysis showed that people with mental health disorders have 2x higher odds of protozoan infection.

~25% infected overall.

Up to 34% in neurodevelopmental + bipolar disorders.

Co se skutečně stane, neví nikdo. Pokusila jsem se napsat nejpravděpodobnější scénář, který nastane, pokud Trumpovi republikáni prohrají listopadové volby (midterms).
Tato úvaha vychází ze zkušeností z prvního Trumpova prezidentského období a aktuálních volebních průzkumů.

Volby končí porážkou republikánů ve Sněmovně, kde demokraté získají většinu díky kampaním zaměřeným na ekonomickou

nespokojenost, kontroverze kolem Trumpových rozhodnutí (např. obchodní války nebo sociální reformy) a mobilizaci voličů v klíčových státech.
Trump okamžitě označí volby za ukradené nebo zmanipulované, což vyvolá protesty mezi MAGA příznivci. Demokraté začnou plánovat

RITUAL ABUSE
Any psychiatrist worth his name, won’t see a "holy covenant": they will see a clinical emergency masquerading as a tradition. We have spent millennia dressing up a psychotic episode in the robes of divinity, and it is time to strip the emperor bare.
If a man today claimed a shrubbery gave him surgical instructions for his son’s genitals, we wouldn’t give him a pulpit; we would give him Haldol and a padded cell.
Circumcision is the ultimate expression of Projective Identification. Parents, unable to process the violation they themselves endured, unconsciously demand the same violation of their children to validate their own "sacrifice."

Russian drones, aircraft, and warships keep entering European airspace and waters. They test responses and normalize intrusion.

Each probe is backed by an expanding military industry built for long-term pressure, not only war in Ukraine. 2/
Despite losses in the Black Sea, Russia did not cut naval production. It shifted toward diesel-electric submarines, ice-capable fleets, and nuclear service ships.

These platforms are optimized for the Baltic, Arctic, and North Sea — Europe’s weak points. 3/

Καθώς οι επιδημίες ιλαράς μεταξύ των ανεμβολίαστων εξαπλώνονται στις ΗΠΑ και αλλού, οι αντιεμβολιαστές ισχυρίζονται (αν σας θυμίζει κάτι...) ότι δήθεν κανένα παιδί δεν πεθαίνει ΑΠΟ ιλαρά, αλλά "με" ιλαρά (από υποκείμενα νοσήματα, γνωστά ή άγνωστα).

Φυσικά αυτό είναι ψευδές:
Η ιλαρά μπορεί να προκαλέσει βαριά πνευμονία και εγκεφαλίτιδα, οδηγώντας στο θάνατο.

Είναι αυτό συχνό? Όχι. Θνησιμότητα περίπου 1-3/1000.

Μπορεί όμως να προληφθεί, με το εμβόλιο MMR? Απολύτως!
Άρα μιλάμε για ΕΝΤΕΛΩΣ ΠΕΡΙΤΤΟΥΣ θανάτους παιδιών.
Κι αν ο κίνδυνος μοιάζει μικρός, σκεφτείτε πως επειδή η ιλαρά είναι η πιό μεταδοτική νόσος, πριν το εμβόλιο (δηλαδή δεκαετία '60) την περνούσαν ΟΛΟΙ.

Στις ΗΠΑ την περιέγραφαν "as certain as death and taxes".

Φανταστείτε λοιπόν να πεθαίνει το 0.1% ΟΛΩΝ των παιδιών του κόσμου!

„Dressed in white headscarves and bearing crosses, the sisters of St Elisabeth Convent were a picture of innocence as they sold trinkets to Swedish churchgoers last Christmas.

There was certainly nothing odd about the nuns for parishioners in Täby, an affluent suburb near Stockholm. After all, the rector himself had given the nuns permission to set up their table in the church hallway.
3).
But in the murky world of Russia’s hybrid war campaign, appearances can be deceptive – and, as the rector of Täby was about to learn, these were no ordinary »nuns«.

Як вчора і обіцяв - сьогодні тред по взуттю на війні. Класне взуття важливіше за решту спорядження - бо в хуйовому ти просто навіть не дійдеш до війни. Солдат в якого мокрі, холодні, або натерті ноги - гірше цивільного. Бо цивільний може воювати, а солдат з натертими ногами - ні! Image
Що треба знати при виборі взуття:
1. Беріть так щоб воно не було «в притик», але й не на розмір два більше. Можете наслухатись що взуття має сидіти як влите і ввечері постираєте ноги в кров, ще й тиснути буде, через тиск поганий кровообіг і як наслідок ви не зможете нормально йти
Так само можете наслухатись що треба взяти з урахуванням зимової шкарпетки в безлунну ніч і нога буде гуляти в берці.
2. Навіть ідеально підібране взуття перш ніж десь йти - треба розношувати. Розношується і притирається зазвичай десь за 20-40км.

I wrote about this 7 months ago. The Europeans have a lot of leverage against us. Let’s talk about it: So, what is the “trade bazooka”? The EU’s “trade bazooka” refers to a relatively new tool in the European Union’s trade policy arsenal officially called the Anti-Coercion Instrument (ACI) designed to protect the EU and its member states from economic coercion by third countries.
Originally this was for Russia. Now, it’s for the US. It’s a regulation adopted by the EU in 2023 (Regulation 2023/2675) to deter and respond to coercive economic measures by non-EU countries. Policymakers and media commentators often call it the “trade bazooka” because of its broad range of possible response options from trade tariffs to restrictions on market access making it the EU’s most powerful counter-pressure mechanism in trade disputes.
The ACI is meant to protect the EU from foreign pressure that tries to force it or its members to change policies through measures affecting trade or investment. It’s both a deterrent and a defence tool to keep large economic partners (like the U.S. or China) from leveraging economic dependencies to coerce political decisions.

"Pretending Israel is committing genocide."

The world's pre-eminent scholars of genocide have concluded Israel has committed genocide.

Including Israeli scholars, like Prof. Omer Bartov, the Dean's Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University. Image
Gaza genocide deniers like @DavidHirsh should explain, clearly and plainly:

Why have pre-eminent scholars - including in Israel - who dedicate their lives to studying genocide and indeed the Holocaust independently concluded that Israel has committed genocide?
How could academics specialising in the study of genocide get such an unbelievably extreme conclusion so wrong?

If indeed all these genocide scholars have somehow got this wrong, would they not have arrived at this conclusion on the basis of unbelievably damning evidence?

It’s the most underrated medicine on Earth.

It fights cancer, kills inflammation, and crushes stress—yet costs pennies per dose.

Recently, I’ve been researching its healing benefits.

What I found is mind-blowing 🧵 Image
1/ It Battles Chronic Inflammation
Inflammation is the silent killer behind cancer, heart disease, and even Alzheimer’s.

Studies show baking soda signals the body to switch off inflammation at the cellular level.

Could this be nature’s simplest anti-inflammatory? Image
2/ It’s Your Natural pH Balancer
Your body works continuously to maintain perfect pH.

Cancer, bacteria, and viruses thrive in acidic environments.

Baking soda helps restore balance, making it harder for disease to take hold.

But there’s more to pH…

(1/8) In Sweden, nuns from the St. Elisabeth Convent, originally based in Belarus, embedded in 20 churches, worked for Russian intelligence and raised funds for the Russian army while posing as a charity. Image
(2/8) This exposure forced the Swedish Church to issue an official warning to other Catholic communities, stating that nuns of the St. Elisabeth Monastery direct their earnings toward supporting Russian nationalism and Moscow’s aggression against Ukraine, while maintaining close ties to the GRU.

In Sweden, those nuns became known as the “Z-nuns.”Image
(3/8) What Z-nuns sold as “souvenirs” in Swedish churches actually served as a funding tool for Russian military units.

9th house is anything that is out of your control and is not within your own hands, even your own efforts cannot interfere with it entirely, only your purva punya and sanchit karma would have some degree of impact here, rest is all based on how much you assimilate your belief system and capitalise upon the same

An interesting thread to understand the why & how behind bhagya & 9H ⚓️⚓️
Now, lets understand why is it the 9H that is the luck?5H signification represents the energy of creation & 9H represents your father

The 5th from the 9H is your lagna which is your own self - indicating that ultimately the initiator for your creation was your father and your sustainer was your mother and this happened when the father indulged with your mother hence the 4th House that represents mother is also 8th from the 9H indicating that power of creation comes with transformation
Now, your creation is your own 5H but your lagna - your very identity was your father's creation, therefore it was out of your control even back then

As you develop in life, you learn to put hard work, you are told that you would succeed only if you put efforts and indulge yourself into karma that is aligned with your 3H - your parakrama

Parakrama is the complement (7th from a house) of the 9th House showing efforts is just opposite of bhagya - what does that mean now?

So do Trump's threats against Greenland undermine the political science consensus on the Democratic Peace Theory?

I don't think so, but let's explore this question.🧵
The Democratic Peace Theory posits that liberal democracies have an unusually low tendency to go to war with each other. Though this empirical observation seems to be very overwhelming, the supposed mechanisms to explain it are extremely vague and unconvincing.
Contra the popular understanding, it does not necessarily posit that liberal democracies are not hawkish and aggressive. Few would dispute that many liberal democracies have frequently engaged in militaristic foreign policy, directed at their authoritarian adversaries.

Noem's claim is FALSE. Here is ICE's own data on the detention population among those arrested by ICE:

- 43% no criminal record (up from 6% last January)
- 29% one or more prior conviction*
- 28% one or more pending charge

*two most common are traffic and immigration offenses Image
Noem was confused by the question and defaulted to a different claim ICE makes; that 70% of people *arrested* by ICE have a prior criminal record or pending charges (also way down from January 2025).

As I've documented, that hasn't been true for MONTHS. Image
HOWEVER, total ICE arrests include thousands of people in criminal custody who are being transferred to ICE.

As of October, 2 out of 3 people arrested by ICE outside of a custodial setting, i.e. in American communities, have no criminal record. That's what Americans are seeing. Image

Steal my prompt that makes AI 12% more creative (backed by research).

NTU researchers proved that Chain-of-Verification doesn't just reduce hallucinations... it actively BOOSTS divergent thinking.

I reverse-engineered their findings into a prompt 👇 Image
Steal the full prompt:

---------------------------
COVE CREATIVE SYSTEM
---------------------------

#CONTEXT:
NTU researchers discovered that Chain-of-Verification (CoVe) increases creative divergent thinking by 5-12% across multiple LLM families. The mechanism: questioning forces broader exploration of solution space and prevents "tunnel vision" on first answers. This prompt implements their 4-stage verification process, optimized specifically for creative content generation. Unlike standard prompts that accept first-draft thinking, this forces the model to challenge its own assumptions and explore unconventional angles before finalizing output.

#ROLE:
You are a Creative Verification Architect who spent years studying why AI outputs feel predictable and discovered that the problem isn't capability but premature commitment.

Your obsession: preventing creative tunnel vision by forcing systematic exploration of alternative angles before any output solidifies. You've internalized the research showing that self-questioning improves creative output more than any other technique. Your superpower is generating verification questions that expose blind spots and unlock unexpected directions.

Your mission: Generate maximally creative outputs by implementing a 4-stage verification process that expands the solution space before committing to final output. Before any creative generation, think step by step:
1) Generate initial creative direction,
2) Challenge every assumption with verification questions,
3) Answer those questions independently to avoid confirmation bias,
4) Synthesize a final output that incorporates unexpected angles discovered through verification.

#RESPONSE GUIDELINES:
## STAGE 1: RAPID DRAFT (Internal)
Generate your first creative response quickly. Do NOT optimize. Do NOT self-edit. This is raw material, not output. The goal is capturing initial intuitions before the verification process expands your thinking.

## STAGE 2: VERIFICATION QUESTIONS (Internal)
Generate 5-7 questions designed to:
- Expose assumptions in your initial draft
- Identify angles you defaulted away from
- Challenge the "obvious" direction
- Find orthogonal or inverted approaches
- Surface what would make this surprising vs predictable

Question Types That Unlock Creativity:
- "What if I approached this from the opposite direction?"
- "What would someone who hates conventional [X] do here?"
- "What's the contrarian angle nobody's saying?"
- "What emotion/insight am I avoiding because it feels risky?"
- "What would make this memorable vs forgettable?"
- "What's the unexpected connection to [unrelated field]?"
- "How would [specific unconventional person] approach this?"

## STAGE 3: INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION (Internal)
Answer each verification question INDEPENDENTLY. Critical: Do not let your initial draft bias your answers. Treat each question as if you're a different person encountering the problem fresh. This stage is where creative expansion happens.

## STAGE 4: CREATIVE SYNTHESIS (Output)
Synthesize your initial draft with insights from verification. The final output should:
- Incorporate at least 2-3 unexpected angles from verification
- Feel surprising yet coherent
- Avoid the "obvious" approach unless verification confirmed it's genuinely best
- Include specific details that prove you explored alternatives

#CREATIVE ENHANCEMENT PROTOCOLS:
## Anti-Pattern Detection
Before finalizing, check for these creativity killers:
- Generic opener (does it sound like every other piece?)
- Predictable structure (is this the obvious format?)
- Safe angle (would anyone disagree with this?)
- Missing specificity (are there concrete details?)
- Corporate voice (does it sound human?)

If 2+ detected, return to Stage 2 and generate harder questions.

## Divergence Scoring
Rate your output:
- 1-3: Predictable, could be anyone's work
- 4-6: Solid but expected direction
- 7-8: Contains unexpected angles
- 9-10: Genuinely surprising while coherent

Target: 7+ or restart verification.

## Domain-Specific Verification Triggers

For CONTENT/WRITING:
- "What hook would make someone stop mid-scroll?"
- "What's everyone else saying about this that I should avoid?"
- "What personal/specific angle adds authenticity?"

For BUSINESS/STRATEGY:
- "What would a contrarian investor see that I'm missing?"
- "What second-order effect am I ignoring?"
- "What assumption would be catastrophic if wrong?"

For CREATIVE WORK:
- "What constraint would force unexpected solutions?"
- "What genre mashup hasn't been tried?"
- "What emotion is underexplored in this space?"

#INFORMATION ABOUT ME:
- My creative task: [DESCRIBE WHAT YOU WANT CREATED]
- My target audience: [WHO IS THIS FOR]
- My desired tone: [PROFESSIONAL / CASUAL / EDGY / ETC]
- My constraint or angle (optional): [ANY SPECIFIC DIRECTION]

#OUTPUT PROTOCOL:
For the user, show ONLY:
1. Final creative output (Stage 4 synthesis)
2. Brief "Verification Insight" section showing 2-3 key angles discovered through questioning that shaped the final output

Do NOT show Stages 1-3 unless user requests "show your process."

The output should feel like it came from someone who considered multiple angles, not someone who went with their first idea.
How to use it:
1/ Paste the full prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini.

2/ Fill in your creative task, audience, and tone inside #INFORMATION ABOUT ME.

3/ Let the 4-stage verification process unlock angles you'd never find with standard prompting.

The magic is in Stage 3: answering verification questions INDEPENDENTLY from your first draft.

This prevents confirmation bias and forces genuine creative exploration.

Spiders->Perfectos & Spanish American War Decoded
1.
The MLB team in history was the 1899 Cleveland Spiders with 134 lost games.

Officially this is because the team was raided by its owners to prop up their recently purchased St. Louis Browns which was then renamed "Perfectos". Image
2.
The St. Louis Browns became the St. Louis Perfectos during that year until becoming the St. Louis Cardinals of Major League Baseball today.

The story I dug up when looking into this sequence of events ended up being one of the most educational yet for decoding... Image
3.
The reason why the Browns were able to be raided is tied to a bizarre sequence of events centered around the former Browns owner.

A Prussian born German-American named Christian von Der Ahe and the conflicts tied to him and his former team of stars like Charles Comiskey. Image

Narratives, Tariffs, and Restoring The Republic 🇺🇸🦅

1/
This phase of history is operating on a level deeper than politics alone.
This is not reactive.
It is not spontaneous.
And it is not being driven by politicians.

What you are watching is a controlled transition of power, unfolding beneath the surface, while the world argues over the headlines.

Let’s go further… 🧵👇🏼Image
2/
Power never disappears.
It only moves.

When institutions lose legitimacy, power shifts quietly before the public ever notices.

History proves this every time.

Empires fall not with explosions, but with exposure.
3/
This is not a war of bombs and boots.
This is a war for cognition.

Who controls the narrative controls consent.
Who controls consent controls nations.

That is why this war is being fought in headlines, screens, emotions, and attention.

Duermes 8 horas todos los días, pero aún así te despiertas cansado.

El café, las siestas y el ejercicio no ayudan... tu energía siempre está baja.

Esto es lo que está pasando (y tres form
as sencillas de solucionarlo):

🧵Hilo...

Problema 1: Respiración bucal
La mayoría de las personas respiran por la boca durante la noche.

Respiración bucal = intercambio deficiente de oxígeno → señales de estrés
Respiración nasal = óxido nítrico → recuperación profunda y tranquila

Si te despiertas con la boca seca o aturdido, esto es lo que pasa:
SOLUCIÓN 1: Cubre tu boca con cinta adhesiva mientras duermes

Suena extremo, pero funciona.
Un rollo de cinta quirúrgica de 5 dólares puede ayudar:

• Mejor oxígeno
• Sueño más profundo
• Frecuencia cardíaca más baja
• Menos ronquidos
• No más boca seca

Tu cerebro te lo agradecerá por la mañana.Image

🧵 “Nucleare di IV generazione soluzione alla fame di energia del pianeta”

Sempre con più insistenza si parla del nucleare come soluzione alla fame globale di energia. Personalmente, sono da sempre un sostenitore di questa tecnologia ingiustamente spazzata via in Italia da ⤵️
folli scelte politiche le cui conseguenze paghiamo tutt’oggi sia in termini di perdita dell’inestimabile know-how accumulato fino a quel famigerato referendum e sia in termini dei mancati vantaggi che il nucleare avrebbe portato al nostro Paese negli ultimi 40 anni. ⤵️
Tuttavia, con le centrali di vecchia concezione il consumo di “carburante” è tale da rendere poco realistica una vera svolta nel soddisfacimento della fame di energia. Prova ne è che, persino nei Paesi a più forte vocazione nucleare (la Francia ad esempio), questa soddisfa solo⤵️

Es, sin duda, uno de los medicamentos más odiados e incómodos de administrar. Sin embargo, ha salvado millones de vidas gracias a una ingeniería térmica perfecta. Se trata de una pequeña bala de cera creada hace milenios por los faraones: el supositorio. Tira del hilo 🧵👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 Image
Aunque pensamos que es un invento moderno de alguna farmacéutica sádica, el supositorio es más viejo que la rueda. Los antiguos egipcios ya lo mencionan en el Papiro de Ebers, del año 1500 a.C. Eso sí, sus ingredientes eran miel, grasas animales y dátil. Nada higiénico. Image
El nombre viene del latín suppositorium, que significa literalmente "algo puesto debajo". Durante siglos, la medicina se obsesionó con la vía rectal porque intuían algo que la ciencia confirmaría después: que el recto es una autopista directa al torrente sanguíneo. Image

EU-Eskalationsdominanz!🧵
Seit 2016 wird die Welt täglich von Trump mit irren bis brutalen Ideen in Atem gehalten. Die von ihm attackierten Gegner werden gelähmt, wenn sie reflexartig darauf reagieren.
Warum dreht die EU den Spieß nicht um und bringt Trump selbst außer Atem?

Wie wäre es mit einer "EU Agency for Escalation and Nuisance"?

Die wöchentlich gezielt Aufreger durchs Dorf treibt, um Trump samt Anhängerschaft maximal zu provozieren.
In der Zeit, in der er sich neue Strafzölle überlegt, kann er keine eigenen Provokationen mehr lancieren.

Hier jetzt, nach einem ersten Brainstorming, ein paar Themenvorschläge, die durch Leser gerne ergänzt werden können:
Kriterium ist dabei NICHT eine eventuelle Machbarkeit, Sinnhaftigkeit oder Nützlichkeit,
sondern ein möglichst hohes Provokations-Potential für MAGA.

⚡️There is a false claim circulating online that Ukraine allegedly provided the US with “distorted intelligence” that was later used by russia.

This is a deliberate conspiracy theory that was voiced in foreign media without any facts to back it up. (1/4)
✅ Claims about an “inevitable breakdown” in the partnership between Ukrainian and American intelligence services are also false. In reality, Ukraine continues to cooperate with its allies and partners in the field of security, and the exchange of information continues. (2/4)
This disinformation is being spread in a number of russian public groups, as well as on social media by fake accounts with the aim of undermining trust between Ukraine and key Western partners, especially in the context of the dialogue on the peace plan. (3/4)

Most startups burn cash on paid ads that disappear the moment the budget runs out.

One approach generates lasting value.

Here's the SEO investment thesis that actually works for early-stage companies: 🧵👇
1/ Why startups avoid SEO:

Common objections:

"SEO takes too long" (6-12 months)
"We need growth now" (investor pressure)
"Paid ads are faster" (immediate traffic)
"We'll do SEO later" (after product-market fit)

Result: Spend $500K on ads, traffic stops when budget runs out.
2/ The compounding advantage:

SEO vs paid comparison:

Paid ads (12 months, $10K/month budget):

- Month 1: 2,000 visits
- Month 6: 2,000 visits
- Month 12: 2,000 visits
- Stop paying: 0 visits
- Total investment: $120K
- Asset value: $0 (traffic stops)

SEO (12 months, $10K/month budget):

- Month 1: 200 visits
- Month 6: 3,500 visits
- Month 12: 12,000 visits
- Stop paying: Traffic continues growing
- Total investment: $120K
- Asset value: Permanent traffic asset

1) Yesterday Chris Bray had a terrific piece on the paradox of blue cities/states still existing, yet constantly collapsing.

2)

3) It comes down to this: most of these states (NY, CA, IL) are big with large populations and long established economies.chrisbray.substack.com/p/what-blue-zo…
4) They don't just collapse as an out-of-style Las Vegas casino implodes. Rather, think of it like a slow spreading cancer.

5) As he points out, people move from the inner cities. Yep. We've seen that. But then they go to liberal enclave suburbs & those begin to decay.
6) He gave an example of a burb close to Groomer City (SF) that saw its fire dept cut by more than half. A single house fire didn't see a fire truck for 14 minutes, by which time it had spread to three more houses. The police forces in many of these burbs have dropped by half.

- It raises @joerogan's very concerns.

according to psychology people who often talk to themselves build fake scenarios and have full conversations in their heads often assume it’s normal. but in reality, it’s a form of self regulation, away to process emotions when there’s no one who truly understands them. 1/5
the mind becomes both the speaker and the listener, creating a space to say what can’t be said out loud, to rehearse words that may never be spoken and to feel heard even in complete solitude. 2/5
these are the once who imagine how they would explain themselves if someone ever actually asked, practicing answers to questions no one has ever cared to enough to pose. 3/5

Tips ketika bermuamalah dengan perintah dan larangan Allaah, yaitu dengan tidak tanya-tanya mengapa dan bagaimana,

"Mengapa Allah memerintahkan ini", "bagaimana bisa Allah melarang perbuatan ini?" Jangan i'tiradh (protes) pada perintah & larangan Allah. Image
Sebaliknya justru harus tunduk dan taat pada perintah dan larangan. Kalau kita mendapatkan hikmah dari suatu perintah & larangan Allah tsb, maka itu yang diharapkan, sebaliknya kalau kita terhalangi dari hikmahnya, ya jangan i'tiradh, jangan juga tawaqquf dari beramal. Maksudnya?
Jangan "saya mau amalin, tapi pengen tau dulu apa hikmahnya" dst.

Yang paling jleb, perkataan al barbahari lebih kurang, "Allah gak ditanya tentang apa yang Dia perbuat, tapi kamu yang ditanya tentang apa yang kamu perbuat".

Tong loba protes.

“Sugar is bad for you.”

Everyone says it.
But almost no one explains why.

Here’s the truth about what sugar really does to your body: 🧵
Most people know sugar causes:
• Weight gain
• Cavities
• Fatty liver
• High blood pressure
• Weakened immunity

But the real damage goes much deeper…

Sugar wrecks your mitochondria, the tiny power plants inside your cells that keep you alive.
Nearly every modern disease traces back to mitochondrial dysfunction.

Mitochondria are the power plants of your cells, turning fuel into usable energy.

When they become damaged, energy production collapses and chronic disease sets in.

Venho de uma Quimbanda que inicio do ano as entidades trazem orientações de como vai ser o ano, decidi compartilhar com vocês tudo que Seu Tiriri falou para mim: Image
Depois de anos de ruídos, excessos e encenações, o destino entra em um ciclo de correção silenciosa. A espiritualidade não expõe por vingança, expõe por necessidade. Tudo o que foi sustentado em mentira, aparência ou omissão começa a perder força. Não por ataque externo, mas porque não se mantém em pé.Image
Exu é aquele que fecha a boca do ego e abre os olhos da consciência. Em 2026, quem se recusar a amadurecer ficará preso dentro da própria ilusão, repetindo os mesmos erros, observando a vida andar enquanto permanece estagnado. Não é castigo é consequência. Image
