A new study from Germany looked at the eyes of people who recovered from COVID-19, even months later.
Using a non-invasive retinal imaging tool (OCTA), they found signs of microvascular injury - even in people who had only mild illness.
And it links to long COVID fatigue🧵

COVID-19 leaves microvascular damage, even after mild infection
People who had COVID-19 showed a larger foveal avascular zone (FAZ) - basically a patch in the retina where tiny capillaries are missing.
This was most pronounced in patients who were not hospitalized.

Theres a very long list of US products that cannot be sold in the EU thanks to EU regulations. Since the favorite pastime of the Trump regime and every US oligarch is now to demonize EU regulations, I thought it would be very much worth going through some of those products.🧵 
US Instant Mashed Potatoes
Stuffed with enough BHA and BHT preservatives to give the product an expiration date of absolutely never, the EU decided to outright ban the product, depriving Europeans from what is otherwise a cheap and convenient way to encourage hairloss.

US Pork
Because American pigs are often fed large amounts of ractopamine, a drug that does wonders in increasing muscle growth in pigs and cancer in humans, the EU has deemed the product unsafe and banned it, seemingly without much concern for the profits of US oligarchs.

The gap between SAUSA Corinne Lambert’s filing and the actual court transcripts is so wide you could drive a U.S. Marshals tactical vehicle through it.

SAUSA Corinne Lambert didn't write a custom argument for my husband, Conrad Rockenhaus.
She opened a Word document titled Standard_Sentencing_Appeal_Brief.docx and copy-pasted the section on "Waiver."

1/ Teach First, Summarize Later
“Read this PDF like a teacher, not a summarizer.
Explain the core idea first, then build up slowly.
Assume I’m smart but new to this topic.”
This forces explanation, not compression.

- Tap Safari → Clear History and Website Data.
- Go to Messages → Review Large Attachments → Delete videos/GIFs.
- Restart your iPhone (clears temporary cache).
This invisible junk can eat 5-10GB. You'll be shocked by what disappears.

2. Offload unused apps without losing data:
- Go to Settings → General → iPhone Storage.
- Scroll down and tap any app you rarely use.
- Choose "Offload App" (NOT Delete).
The app removes itself, but your data stays. When you reinstall, everything returns intact.
Auto-offload trick:

🇨🇳🇺🇸 En China, se ha hecho viral, en estos días, la «Línea de Ejecución Invisible», un análisis sobre la sociedad en Estados Unidos.

Primero, un poco de contexto.
En China, durante mucho tiempo, se idealizó la vida en Occidente.
Los chinos creen que todos los occidentales viven bajo un Estado benefactor que se asegura de que vivas bien con relativamente poco esfuerzo.

Por otra parte, en China, el ahorro es fundamental.

Everything you ever wanted to know about Tetteh Quarshie, the man who started the cocoa revolution in Ghana, but were afraid to ask.
In the 1870s, at the height of the colonial era, a master blacksmith from Osu took a risk that would eventually dismantle the economic monopolies of his time and help build the foundation of modern Ghana.

1. The Smuggling of the "Golden Pod" (1870–1879)
At the time, the Spanish colony of Fernando Po (now Bioko, Equatorial Guinea) was the "Fort Knox" of cocoa. It was a tightly guarded, slave-labor-driven hub that provided Europe with its luxury chocolate.
The Risk: Exporting cocoa pods was strictly illegal.
Tetteh Quarshie, working there as a blacksmith, didn't just observe the crop; he understood its unit economics. He saw that the soil and climate in the Akuapem hills back home were identical to Fernando Po.
The Heroic Act: In 1876, he famously smuggled several pods (Amelonado variety) into the Gold Coast, reportedly by sewing them into his clothing or hiding them in his luggage.

2. The Mampong Experiment: Scaling from Zero to One
Tetteh Quarshie didn't just "bring seeds"; he built a prototype farm.
The Initial Failure: His first attempt failed. This is the part people miss—he didn't give up.
He adjusted his techniques and eventually established a successful plantation in Mampong-Akwapim in 1879.
Decentralized Expansion: Unlike the colonial plantations that used forced labor, Quarshie’s model was peer-to-peer. He sold pods and seedlings to his neighbors and relatives for small sums.
He effectively "open-sourced" the industry, allowing smallholder farmers to own the means of production.

Zie hen als de 'kascommissie': zij controleren of de Europese Commissie (EC) geen vreemde uitgaven doet. Ze hebben geen opsporingsmandaat, maar kunnen wél onregelmatigheden signaleren.

The Feynman Technique: 🧵
This framework is from the Nobel Prize-winning physicist, Richard Feynman.
Known as "The Great Explainer," Feynman could break down quantum mechanics for non-scientists.
His secret? He didn't just memorize—he TRULY understood.

As the Cold War ended, senior British officers visited the Soviet Union and sent back powerful visit reports, capturing their experiences and engagements with the Russians. This is the first of several tweet thread, about when ACM Craig, CDS visited in December 1990.
CDS visited from 9-14 Dec, as the guest of his Soviet opposite number (Gen Moiseev). The visit took him to Moscow, Leningrad and Murmansk.
In a note to SofS, he commented on the weakness of Soviet understanding of history, particularly WW2 and their ability to be masters at tweaking arms control. He felt as the Cold War ended, the Soviet military was at risk as it re-engaged with society.
In today’s Vatnik Soup, we’ll introduce an American billionaire, real estate developer, and wannabe diplomat, Steve Witkoff. He’s best known for trying to sell Ukraine to Putin and for helping Trump sell this treason and encouragement of genocidal war as “peace”.

Steve studied law and political science at Hofstra University in New York. After law school, he worked as a real estate attorney, which led him into property acquisitions and development. He first met Trump in the 1980s when Trump was a client of his real estate law firm.

In 1997, Witkoff founded the Witkoff Group, a New York–based real estate development and investment firm. The firm has owned and developed dozens of properties in New York and other major US cities, making Witkoff quite wealthy, with some interesting business connections.

It's an AI platform that's democratizing DeFi and dApp building on SeiNetworm
Simply chat your idea in natural language – like 'build a yield farming protocol with staking rewards' – and it handles the heavy lifting: writes secure Solidity contracts, creates a sleek React frontend, and deploys everything on-chain.
No dev team required. No months of coding. Just fast iteration, lower risks (it catches bugs early), and cheaper experimentation. At only $50/month, it's empowering solo builders to ship real products daily. This is how we accelerate Web3 innovation and build a truly decentralized future

During the Early Modern period, an estimated 35,000 to 60,000 people were executed for witchcraft across Europe and Colonial America.
