psychologists in shambles

a new study out of Japan just showed how much behavior is linked to genetics

basically showing that fear, boldness, and social tendencies are rooted in your DNA
1/
this is the most comprehensive behavioral-genetic dataset ever created in Drosophila melanogaster (fruit flies)

36,600 flies
105 distinct genotypes
standardized threat simulations
single and group contexts

result:
→ behavior is not random
→ behavior is heritable

your body didn’t evolve for blue light, seed oils, comfort, or porn
it evolved to fight, fuck, sleep well, and struggle

modern life destroys your hormones
here’s how to take them back
1/ Image your hormones are the operating system of your body.
modern life is the malware.
here's why

people told you cardio was the healthiest exercise.

they lied

it damages your mitochondria, inflames your system, and accelerates aging.

weightlifting is the real longevity protocol, biochemically, hormonally, and evolutionarily
1/ Image chronic cardio lovers are endurance-obsessed martyrs
but their mitochondria know the truth: resistance training gives you superior metabolic adaptations with lower inflammatory cost
the weight room leads to metabolic advantages that traditional cardio cannot match

new brain-computer interface so small it slips between your hair follicles just solved the last barrier to neural control: movement

96.4% accuracy while running.
this means AR glasses you control with thought, anywhere, anytime
1/ Image non-invasive brain-computer interfaces have a huge problem: motion artifacts corrupt signals during movement. wet electrodes need gel, dry ones require pressure, and both fail during activity.
the result is that BCIs are basically useless in the real world

sit too long and your cells think you're dying.
your body doesn't need motivation, it needs a signal.

here's why without muscle you're dying much faster
1/ Image your cells are continuously monitoring your physical activity. sedentary behavior triggers an immediate metabolic revolt. barely a week of inactivity spikes insulin resistance by 29%. no opinions, just biochemistry

stop eating like a slave.

most people live in food slavery. addicted, inflamed, and confused

this thread is your jailbreak.
get rid of the poison and reclaim your metabolism

become the man (or woman) biology designed you to be.

how to a diet designed around your biology
1/ Image information without implementation is useless. here's your tactical roadmap to implement alpha nutrition immediately. no complex calculations or expensive supplements required. start today and feel the difference within 7 days

eat like the wrong sex, and your hormones collapse.
men tank testosterone and women lose their cycle.

most diets are gender denial and are hurting you

this is how you fix it, biochemically and gender-specific
1/ Image men and women have fundamentally different metabolic and hormonal systems. a good diet must optimize these distinct biological pathways for sex-specific advantages. one-size-fits-all nutrition is biochemical ignorance. let's get specific

no diet works unless it adapts to you.
without tracking, you're just guessing.

most people fail not because the plan is bad, but because they never updated it based on their biology
1/ Image The good diet improves every metric that determines performance: bloodwork, hormones, cognition, recovery, energy.
all quantifiable and proven. no guesswork or wishful thinking.
just biology, tracked

they told you "avoid saturated fat" "limit meat" "eat more fiber"

but all they did was giving you the perfect formula for fatigue, IBS, and low testosterone.
then sold you meds.
time to dismantle their lies

1/ Image nutrition experts gave you IBS, low T, and depression, then blamed your genes.
their advice to avoid saturated fat, eat tons of fiber, limit meat, and fear cholesterol has created unprecedented metabolic disease. the entire narrative is collapsing.
time for truth.

ugly women are more likely to be liberal

the reason is obvious in hindsight and it's biological and evolutionary

reality is statistical and doesn't care about muh feelings

🚨IT'S HAPPENING🚨

a woman who cannot speak now speaks through her brain, in real time, with her own voice.

no typing, delay, or sounds made.

just neural intent to streaming speech
this isn’t prediction. it’s embodiment
1/ Image a woman with complete paralysis and zero vocal function just regained the ability to speak at ~conversational speed.

with AI, a brain implant learned to read her intention to speak and synthesized her words in her own voice. live. streaming. no delay

every cell in your body is being damaged by something they feed you daily

seed oils
they’re in everything, flooding your body with oxidized linoleic acid, making you weaker and more tired, and triggering chronic inflammation

seed oil isn’t food. it’s biochemical warfare
1/ Image seed oils (corn, soybean, canola oil) were never part of human diets until 1900s. they're industrial byproducts requiring chemical extraction, bleaching, deodorizing. they're fundamentally alien to human biochemistry and until not too long ago were only used as motor oil

AI can now decode the human proteome without any reference genome.
a new paper published today presents a new model that can read raw mass spec and generate novel peptide sequences from scratch.
no database or priors. just biology.
1/ Image peptides are fragments of proteins, molecular fingerprints of what your cells are actually doing.
immune signals, cancer markers, microbial invaders, hormone codes, it's all in the peptides
they’re basically reality’s receipts

most sleep advice comes for men and it assumes women’s biology functions the same way, but it doesn’t
ignoring these sex-based differences isn’t just wrong, it’s destructive

sleep shapes hormones, fertility, and performance differently for men and women
1/ Image biology doesn’t care about fairness, it cares about function.
men and women don’t just experience sleep differently,
their hormones are built around it in different ways.
optimize sleep properly, and both cycles and surges thrive. ignore the difference, and biology collapses

your bedroom is ruining your sleep

that tiny LED? it's suppressing melatonin by ~50%. that streetlight through blinds? crushing testosterone production. your phone at night? biological castration. the first step to sleep well is total darkness
1/ Image light at night directly suppresses melatonin through melanopsin receptors in your retina. melatonin doesn't just make you sleepy; it regulates testosterone production, immune function, and cancer prevention. even 100 lux (dim room light) cuts melatonin by ~50-85%.

your sleep is getting ruined by modern life, and your hormones are paying the price
one week of 5-hour nights drops your testosterone by 15%. that's equivalent to aging 15 years overnight. weak sleep = biological decline.
1/ Image the science is brutal: 60-70% of your daily testosterone release happens during sleep, primarily in deep slow-wave sleep. cut that sleep short, you literally rob your body of its primary T production window. your balls only work at full capacity during sleep.

absolutely incredible

in a collaboration between US and China, researchers have been able to reverse genetic blindness in mice, restoring vision at the DNA level

1/ Image until now, CRISPR-based edits failed at treating retinitis pigmentosa (RP). they left messy DNA breaks, off-target chaos, and low editing efficiencies. the vision barely improved and the degeneration continued

MIT researchers just turned skin cells directly into neurons without stem cell intermediate, 100-fold efficiency boost, and they actually worked when transplanted into mouse brains

1/ Image before, converting skin cells into neurons meant a messy detour through induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). slow, inefficient (~1%), and cells often got stuck half-way, wasting weeks and resources.

the temperature at which brains develop affects brain connectivity and behavior

lower temperatures lead to brains with over twice the connectivity and synaptic complexity

1/ Image new research from Johannes Gutenberg University, published in Science Advances, shows cooler developmental temperatures lead to significantly more complex neural wiring.

holy shit.

after almost 20 years, they created the most refined synthetic chromosome yet, we are getting closer to the first full synthetic eukaryotic genome

we will start vibe coding biology much sooner than most people think

1/ Image traditional genetic engineering was slow, random, costly. precision was urgently needed and researchers at Macquarie University found the solution
