Given that @jaycost and I are doing a presidential ratings podcast (among other things -- check out @aei_STpodcast!), I hate to get ahead of myself but: FDR is genuinely a God Tier president. I say this as someone libertarian-ish, so I don't really *want* to. But it's true. 1/
People underestimate how grim things were on March 4, 1933. The Depression wasn't a single event: It was a slow moving cascade of disasters, with plateus in between. 1932 was a sort of plateau, until the end, when another series of bank failures hit. 2/
This was probably the worst of them. Other crises like late '30, early '31-'32, were bad, but this one was nationwide and catastrophic. Understand this: ***When FDR took over, the financial collapse was accelerating***. After we'd already lost a quarter of GDP. 3/
في عام ١٩٢٧، دخلت باحثة شابة من روسيا أحد مقاهي برلين لتتغدى، وهناك لاحظت شيئًا غريبًا في تصرفات النادل.
وما كانت تعرف إن هذي الملاحظة البسيطة ستغير علم النفس للأبد..
اقتربت من النادل وطلبت منه ببساطة..

في عام 1927، دخلت باحثة شابة من روسيا لتتناول الغداء في أحد مقاهي برلين، ولاحظت شيئًا غريبًا في تصرفات النادل.
بعد عدة أسابيع، تحولت هذه الملاحظة العفوية إلى واحد من أشهر الاكتشافات في علم النفس في القرن العشرين.
واليوم، هذه المصادفة تساعد في تفسير لماذا يعيش الإنسان البالغ مع شعور دائم بإرهاق خفيف، حتى عندما لا يفعل شيئًا مرهقًا بشكل خاص.

اسم الباحثة كان بلُوما زيجارنِك. كانت في السادسة والعشرين من عمرها. جاءت إلى برلين لتتعلم في مختبر كورت ليفين أحد أكثر علماء النفس تأثيرًا في ذلك الوقت.
كان ليفين يدرس كيفية عمل النفس في الحياة اليومية الواقعية، وليس فقط داخل ظروف مخبرية مصطنعة.
وهذا النهج هو الذي قاد زيجارنك إلى ملاحظة ستغيّر لاحقًا فهمنا لكيفية عمل الذاكرة والانتباه بشكل جذري.

The @Deepstate_UA: In the Sloviansk direction, the RuAF are applying heavy pressure along the entire line amidst chaotic conditions caused by personnel shortages, infiltrating deep into 🇺🇦defenses, targeting positions and logistics with UAVs, and assaulting multiple settlements⬇️
including Riznykivka, Kalenyky, Zakitne, and Ozerne, threatening 🇺🇦rear positions near Rai-Oleksandrivka; the deployment of the Rubikon [Rubicon, 🇷🇺military UAS center] units there was also reported.

I need to talk to you about what GLP-1 drugs are doing to the brain.
For decades, medicine has treated metabolic health, cardiovascular health, and mental health as completely separate systems. Separate doctors. Separate drugs. Separate departments.
Biology may not work that way.
A landmark study just published in The Lancet Psychiatry is forcing us to reconsider everything.

Taipale et al. tracked 95,490 people across 13 years of Swedish national data — people with pre-existing depression and anxiety, compared against themselves on and off semaglutide.
44% less worsening depression. 38% less worsening anxiety. 47% less worsening substance use disorder. 44% less self-harm.
Nearly half. Across every psychiatric measure they tracked.
"Ozempic personality" dominated headlines recently — the fear that GLP-1 drugs flatten your ability to feel pleasure.
But if semaglutide stole pleasure at scale, depression would climb.
It fell by nearly half.

The mechanism tells a different story than the fear.
These drugs appear to quiet compulsive craving without suppressing genuine satisfaction. Less "I need this." Same capacity for joy.
Some of it is likely indirect — better metabolic health, weight loss, lower systemic inflammation, improved sleep, improved mobility, and the psychological impact of finally feeling healthier in your own body.
But there is growing evidence that GLP-1 receptors in the brain's reward and impulse pathways are doing something more direct. Something we don't yet fully understand.
A separate BMJ study following 606,000 veterans found GLP-1 users had 18% less alcohol use disorder, 20% less nicotine dependence, and 25% less opioid use disorder — even in people with no prior substance use history.
These are staggering numbers for a drug class designed to treat diabetes.

Hemos troceado las carreras universitarias para montar un negocio de másteres inútiles que solo sirven para vaciar la cartera de las familias. Permitidme reflexionar sobre la estafa de los grados Frankenstein y por qué hay que volver a las Licenciaturas generalistas. 🧵va...
El catálogo de grados actual da vergüenza ajena. Ya no estudias Química, Matemáticas, Historia o, en mi caso, Agrónomos; estudias "grado en Gestión de la Sostenibilidad, Transformación Digital y Medioambiente". Y sí, si lo buscáis, existe.
La jugada maestra de Bolonia fue recortar las carreras a 4 años para vaciarlas de contenido y obligarte a pagar el peaje de un máster en el quinto o sexto año. Un máster, por cierto, mucho más caro que un grado. Es una estafa piramidal pura.
1. Putin on tänään Pekingissä Xi Jinpingin luona.
Moni lännessä puhuu edelleen “Venäjän ja Kiinan liitosta” ikään kuin kyse olisi tasavertaisesta kumppanuudesta. Ei ole. Todellisuudessa Venäjä on ajautumassa yhä enemmän Kiinan junioripartneriksi.
Rautalangasta väännettynä 👇

2. Ukrainan sota muutti maiden suhteen perustavanlaatuisesti. Kun länsi sulki ovia Venäjältä, Moskova joutui kääntymään entistä riippuvaisemmaksi Kiinasta. Peking ymmärtää tämän täysin. Siksi suhteessa on nykyään paljon enemmän hierarkiaa kuin aitoa “ystävyyttä”.
3. Yksi luku kertoo olennaisen: Kiinan talous on noin 10 kertaa Venäjän taloutta suurempi.
Neuvostoliiton aikana Moskova oli supervalta. Nyt Venäjä on taloudellisesti lähempänä keskisuurta raaka-ainetaloutta kuin Kiinan vertaista suurvaltaa.

Why are more people suddenly talking about Fenbendazole for parasites? 👀
Originally known as a deworming medicine, Fenbendazole is now getting major attention in wellness & parasite discussions.

Parasites may not always cause obvious symptoms.
Sometimes people report:
• Fatigue
• Bloating
• Sugar cravings
• Brain fog
• Skin issues
Many ignore these signs for years.

Fenbendazole belongs to a group called benzimidazoles.
Its main role?
Targeting parasites by disrupting how they produce energy.

hot take: Pocho is the Mexican version of Cubas ‘gusano’
before you get upset hear me out
the american train of thought and education is set up to indoctrinate us at a young age, on top of that Mexican-Americas are raised under a reactionary system built on loyalty to the U.S.

so when people say ‘pocho’ most of the time they’re not talking about out language or culture (these topics do come up) they’re criticizing a mindset shaped by Americanzation, especially if they look down on Mexican, reject their roots, and repeat colonial language about Mex/Chic
same way that ‘gusano’ in Cuban became associated with people who fully embraced counterrevolutionary and pro-imperialist politics, “pocho” carry’s political meaning
