Recent large-scale statistical studies have demonstrated that it is... "highly likely" that people living near the sea live longer than those living inland. People living within 50 kilometers of the sea or bays live about a year longer than the national average. This phenomenon is attracting worldwide attention as part of "Blue Health" (the health benefits of being near water). "Blue Health" refers to the mechanism by which "waterfront environments" such as the sea, rivers, lakes, and waterfalls have a positive impact on the mental and physical health of people. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels like I want to stay at the beach forever when I go there. 🌞🌅🌊🏝️💪😎✨💙⏩👶🍀▶️👴🌲👍🧐show more

🐿️ i think there’s no other period in life... where you think about being cool as much as your teenage years and i really want you to know that taking care of your mental health is not something to be ashamed of but is actually the coolest way to love yourself 🐿️ i hope this campaign is able to have that kind of impact as wellshow more

Today, at Redeemer’s University Redeemer's University, Ede, Osun State,... I was glad to commission the new Institute of Genomics and Global Health, marking a significant evolution from ACEGID’s @acegid status as a center of excellence. This moment is not only a proud achievement for all those involved, but it also stands as a powerful symbol of what African scientific leadership can achieve on the global stage. Under the visionary leadership of Prof Christian Happi Christian T. Happi, the team at ACEGID has made extraordinary strides in genomic research, particularly in addressing some of the most pressing infectious disease challenges of our time. The inauguration of the Institute reminds us that the work being done by the ACEGID team is a global public good, benefiting not only Nigeria and Africa but also contributing to global health security. The partnerships fostered between institutions and scientists from the Global North and South are a testament to our shared commitment to protecting and advancing human health. This collaboration has demonstrated what is possible when we work together to confront challenges that affect us all. Under the visionary leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Bola Ahmed Tinubu health security remains a central pillar of our broader strategy to transform Nigeria’s health system, unlock the value chain, and improve population health outcomes. This is why supporting cutting-edge scientific research, like the work at this Institute, is essential. We need to create a health system environment with strong public health capabilities to withstand the potential and evolving threats posed by infectious diseases and the ongoing impacts of climate change. The pace at which new health threats are emerging is accelerating, and with it, the need for robust scientific responses. The innovations in genomics we are witnessing at ACEGID provide a glimmer of hope, offering us the tools we need to be better prepared for what may come. The Federal Government of Nigeria Government of Nigeria is fully committed to supporting these efforts, knowing that science must lead the way in securing a healthier future for all.show more

Last post on this I'd appreciate if people took... the time to read it and share it because I think when people listen they deserve credit but TRNSMT have done more than that I complained about the disabled situation TRNSMT Festival and I think the fact that they listened and made changes is the kind of progressive attitude we need towards disabled facilities. I wasn't complaining to come across as some sort of Karen, it just genuinely would've been a health and safety risk. So I think it's only right that I commend them for the work they've done with the platform this year. The platform has many key things that I think make it the best at any festival I've been at. 1.Clear marked out lanes for people to move out to the toilets and back to their seat to avoid congestion and create space 2. A bar for disabled people beside the platform this is amazing. 3. Toilets well spaced out as well as a changing places toilets for people who more severe disabilities beside the platform. 4. Plenty of space in the toilets. 5. It's huge and you feel really close to the stageshow more

🚨Vancouver Police confirm that the suspect who drove his... SUV into a crowd at the Vancouver Lapu Lapu festival is well known to police: "The person we have in custody does have a significant history of interaction with police and healthcare professionals related to mental health." I'm so sick of this bs...11 people have died, many injured, in what now looks like something that could have been avoided if Canada's streets were not treated as outdoor asylums and drug dens. The system and politics backing it keeps putting Canadians in danger and destroying our lives. This cannot go on.show more

Anthony Fauci’s wife, who once told healthcare workers to... get the Covid Vaccine or get fired, News is circulating that she was fired from the NIH Clarification: She was not fired. She was reassigned to the Indian Health Service as part of a broader restructuring at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The good news is RFK Jr knee-capped this evil witch by stripping her from having any NIH influence, and she will no longer oversee bioethics research re: clinical studies.show more

We are already at war. Not with rifles or... tanks, but with replacement. This is conquest by other means, through the slow erasure of a people who no longer recognize they are being conquered. That is why I write—to remind my people that we are not living in peace, but in the midst of a war waged without banners. The invasion is not declared with armies but with flights and boats, birthrates and welfare rolls. It is demographic warfare, calculated, continuous, and increasingly irreversible. A people, and a civilization, does not need to be burned to the ground to fall. It only needs to be replaced. Throughout the Western world, we are witnessing not mere immigration but a deliberate population transformation, one that has been rationalized by moral cowardice and enforced by political elites who have long since abandoned the idea that their nations belong to their people. What you mock as conquest is already underway, and unlike the conquests of old, it comes with the full consent of those in power. But I do not write in surrender. I write as a warning, as an act of resistance. My writing is meant to exhort and to enliven, to reawaken what has been buried beneath shame and silence. It is a summons to remember, to reclaim, and to rebuild. We are in an existential struggle, not only for our land, but for our survival, and thus for the future itself. Those who sneer at the loss will one day find there is nothing left to sneer at. A people who forget that they exist will be replaced by those who do not. You may call this natural. So be it. Then let nature return, red in tooth and claw, and let the sons of Europe remember who they are.show more

I met with the President of Georgia, Salome Zourabichvili,... in Paris. I expressed Ukraine’s full support and solidarity with the Georgian people, who are fighting for their dignified future, and emphasized that respecting the will of the Georgian people and preventing Ivanishvili’s government from surrendering the country to Putin is essential for the stability and future of the region. For Russia, this is not just about Georgia—it is about control of the Black Sea region, a strategic Russian goal that poses a threat to the national security of everyone in the region and across Europe. I assured President Zourabichvili that Ukraine will coordinate with partners, not just in Europe but globally, to deliver a systemic response and support the Georgian people in defending their right to live freely and independently. 🇺🇦🇬🇪show more

The thing about the Kool Aid and Pineapple trend... is that I have watched people complain about Blacks being criminals, a nuisance, useless, annoying. I have seen people claim they want to see Blacks gone and die off, disappear, Yet I remain confused when I witness the same people complain about Black people practicing capitalism, being peaceful, not being criminals, not even involve or try to gain the attention of the people that hate them and end up gaining media attention in the process, and even better for the people that hate them, pushing products that will lead to them dying off… So what is it, do you want them to practice a healthy meal schedule and do you want them to steal? It’s a strange narrative I’ve been watching.show more

I want to make this clear to you: the... area they describe as a “safe zone” is in the west of Gaza, but look closely , there is no space at all, not even on the seashore, as the entire place is packed with tents. Where are people supposed to go? Are we expected to live in the sea? How can they do this? What kind of logic is this, telling us to head west while they know very well that there is no space there?show more

In the legends of the Hopi, there are stories... about beings called the Ant People. These beings are said to have lived underground and helped the Hopi during times of great danger. One of the main stories says that during earlier worlds, when disasters like fire or ice came, the Ant People guided some of the Hopi into tunnels beneath the earth to keep them safe. Down there, they were given food and taught how to survive until it was safe to return to the surface. The Ant People are described as hardworking and cooperative, much like ants themselves, and they are remembered as helpers rather than rulers. The stories also say the Ant People shared knowledge with the Hopi. This included how to store food, live simply, and work together as a group. In some versions, they helped guide people between different “worlds,” which are seen as cycles of time where each world ends and another begins. These teachings are still reflected in Hopi values today, especially the idea of living in balance and preparing for hard times. The underground setting is an important part of the story, and many see it as both a real place and a symbol of protection and survival during periods when the surface world becomes unstable.show more

Hey Benjamin Netanyahu - בנימין נתניהו I am not... like Prince Crown Reza Pahlavi to stay silent about your dirty games. Stop biting back the hands those have fed you. I condemn the targeting of Iran’s oil and gas facilities in Asaluyeh, as well as the destruction of Iranian Navy warships in the Caspian Sea—assets that did not pose a threat to Israel or the United States. These resources belong to the Iranian people, not the regime. Actions that degraded national infrastructure and defensive capabilities of Iran risk harming the population while leaving the regime’s core power structures intact. Such measures do not advance the cause of the Iranian people seeking freedom; they risk reinforcing the very system they oppose. If the stated objective is to support the Iranian people, then policy and operations must reflect that aim in a consistent and targeted manner. #OperationLionsRoar #OperationEpicFuryshow more

Before, I saw Sana and Jihyo looking tired and... even massaging their legs. But today, it is heartbreaking and painfully obvious that Sana is not okay at all. This is so painful to watch, and it has seriously gone too far seeing them in such poor condition. I don’t care if people disagree with my tweet. I cannot stay silent anymore. Watching the members suffer one by one like this is breaking my heart, and JYP’s handling of their health is deeply disappointing. I am especially disappointed in JYP. In my opinion, JYP made a huge mistake when Dahyun was sick. They did not even take her to the doctor for an X-ray. Dahyun had to endure the pain for almost a month and still perform. Even in Incheon, she had to walk to the parking lot while limping, without any ankle support or a wheelchair. Before that, Jeongyeon and Chaeyoung were sick and had to miss the tour. We even had to watch Jihyo perform while she was sick, sitting on a chair on stage. That was painful to see. Then Mina had to be absent today because of health issues, and now we can clearly see that Sana is also not in good condition. Watching this happen again and again is exhausting and heartbreaking. How many times do we have to see the members suffer before their health is truly taken seriously? I know concerts and schedules are decided together by the members and the agency. But why does it feel like the girls’ health is always the last thing being considered? Can’t the agency do better and put their health first, just once? The girls are the kind of idols who truly love meeting fans. They will keep showing up even when they are unwell, as long as they can still stand. That is exactly what scares me the most. That is why JYP must take better care of them. Please, I’m begging make the girls’ health the top priority above anything else.

Realizing people might not have realized that by "flower... game" I mean this end screen is a DIRECT reference to the book of unveiling in Destiny 2, which itself refers to a modified version of John Horton Conway's Game of Life; the book refers to this as The Flower Game, a zero-player game where the only move is the initial set up of the pieces and their behaviors. I think if this Durandal is the one from the end of Marathon Infinity, then perhaps he's found a way to influence the Flower Game, and is using that influence to re-write the universe to create a reality that allows his escape from reality itself.show more

🫂🙏Thanks to the bit of aid that entered Gaza... recently, plus the contract which helps us generate water from our source, we were finally able to both distribute water and warm meals today. We distributed clean water to people in the camp and the neighbourhood, and we were able to give everyone in the camp a big bowl of lentils. Even my dad joined in to help. As the prices keep rising and water is almost impossible to get, this feels like some sort of victory. At the same time, we are always painfully aware of the fact that we can't help everyone. There are so many people dying every day, my dear friends. So many people go to bed hungry day after day. Everybody is losing weight and some people are like skeletons. People sometimes collapse in the street as their bodies run out of energy. It is impossible for me to really explain what it is like to live here. I can't find a better description than 'living hell' but even this is not enough to let you know how it feels to be stuck in it. I wish you could smell what death, garbage, open sewers, dust from debris and the smoke from bombs smells like for instance. It is impossible to describe and it's also something we all prefer to pretend not to notice. We never talk about it even though we all know it's there, everywhere and all the time. I wish I could describe all the things we experience every day, as I'm sure you would understand us better. I hope you will never find out what it is like yourselves, my dear friends. May a ceasefire be near for Gaza. My family and I will have a nice warm meal of lentils today, and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for this. It is your generosity that makes it possible for the people in the camp and us to have food, and for people in our neighbourhood to have fresh water again. Thank you my friends, you are all wonderful people. Our Cruelty Free Kitchen 🫂🙏🇵🇸 Our Water Project 💧🙏 My Cat Shelter + Family Survival Fund 🐾🐈🥺🫂 My PayPal 🙏🇵🇸🥺🫂🚨🆘️ 🐾🐈show more

🌅 I’m Coralia Sun, siren of Solmaris — where... sunset never truly ends. The sea spoke of a human found adrift near our glowing reefs, one who looked at the ocean not with fear, but with reverence. I believe there may be one — the only human the sea can truly trust. The one who deserves a single day in Solmaris... and a prize in WLD. ✨For those who didn’t know, there is so much ORO 🟡 in Solmaris.

The Australian government does not deserve our trust, or... our respect. Today, Minister Penny Wong sat back in her chair grappling for words, desperately looking for the right lie to tell. It is worse than dishonest - it is an absolute lack of care. Penny Wong came to this country when she was 8 years old. She came to a country that afforded her the ability to become who she is, and she is now doing her part to destroy it. Back in the 70’s, when she came, Australia was a fair-minded place and a great place to be. Yet here she is... Here in Australia. Undermining our country and lying to our faces. Because she can’t tell the truth. Because if she did, it would destroy any semblance of care for Australia tied to her old party’s Labor brand. It would say the quiet part out loud. The truth. The truth that the Albanese government is more interested in the fortunes of the ISIS brides, women who chose to leave this country to go and fight against our people, than those of us that can’t find or afford a place to live here at home. I am tired of being told how to think by people that completely lack morals and couldn’t care less. People that are elected and paid to operate in the national interest but always put their twisted ethics and back pockets ahead of our nation and our people. I don’t know when Labor stopped caring about Australian workers or worse, when they started hating Australia, but they have and they do. The absolute lack of opposition, the lack of authentic choice has pushed us into a place where these absolute traitors to the interests of the people who pay them - goes entirely unchecked. We are careening out of control, unchecked migration, an energy grid that is just about to collapse, no industry to speak of, and no good reason to start or maintain a business in this place. It happened fast, but those of us who pay our taxes and take risks to make Australia a better place, are being undermined and white-anted by our politicians. The people we are forced to trust, and must pretend to respect, because they have the force of law on their side. Not because they are any good at their jobs. Not because they have earned our affection. No. Simply because they are in charge and there is little to nothing that can be done about it. It is becoming apparent that the two party system has outlived its useful life. Too much corruption, too many words too carefully chosen in a pantomime between to political forces that don’t really want to change anything. They just want to have their go, to have their turn to jam their grubby hands into the till. Surely with this major and catastrophic failure by the so-called Honourable Minister Senator Wong, the people will be able to see through the veil and into the absolute and irresponsible lack of care at the heart of this deceitful Labor government. They lie about everything, and they can, because they don’t have an opposition worthy of the title. I am growing more confident by the day that the only solution to our woes is a new political force, a fresh, Australia first force, that will act in the national interest and put all these corrupt and useless used-car salesmen red and blue in the dustbin of history. It can’t come soon enough. Time is short. I just want Australia back.show more
