🚨 José Mourinho: “Pep Guardiola said something to me yesterday… he won six trophies and I won three, but I won fairly and cleanly”.
“I don't want to win by dealing with 150 lawsuits”.
“If I lost, I want to congratulate my opponent”, says — via @MailSport.
One night of bad sleep makes your brain 60 percent more reactive to negative experiences. The amygdala, the brain's threat detector, fires harder without sleep, and the prefrontal cortex, the part that calms it down, goes quiet. The result is a person who overreacts to everything and cannot explain why.
Matthew Walker at UC Berkeley showed this in a 2007 study that scanned the brains of people who had been awake for 35 hours. The amygdala was 60 percent more activated by negative images in the sleep-deprived group compared to the rested group, and the communication between the amygdala and the prefrontal cortex had been severed.
This is why a small comment from a coworker can ruin your morning after a bad night. The brain lost its brake pedal while you were lying awake, and now every emotional signal arrives at full volume with no one at the controls. The comment did not change. Your brain's ability to handle it did.
The study found that the sleep-deprived brain did not just overreact to negative stimuli. It also failed to distinguish between low-threat and high-threat signals. Everything got the same alarm. A slightly rude email and a genuine crisis received the same cortisol response, because the system that ranks threats by severity had gone offline.
The worst decision you make today might not be a thinking error. It might be a sleeping error. The research says eight hours is not a luxury. It is the maintenance cycle that keeps the emotional thermostat working, and skipping it turns the volume up on everything that goes wrong. https://t.co/PxjrdbiOmM

A landmark Finnish study has found a sharp rise in psychiatric illness among adolescents following sex-alteration procedures.
The peer-reviewed study, published in Acta Paediatrica, tracked every young person under 23 who contacted Finland's gender clinics between 1996 and 2019.
A total 2,083 individuals were studied, with 16,643 matched controls. They were followed for up to 25 years.
Finland's health registers are mandatory, which means no one opts out — this is the complete national picture.
The numbers: psychiatric morbidity rose from 9.8% to 60.7% in adolescents who underwent feminising reassignment, and from 21.6% to 54.5% in masculinising reassignment.
Even after adjusting for prior psychiatric history, gender-referred adolescents faced five times the risk of male population controls, and three times the risk of female controls.
"Psychiatric needs do not subside after medical gender reassignment," the authors concluded.
Referrals after 2010 arrived sicker. 47.9% had already needed psychiatric treatment before their first clinic visit, against 15.3% among controls.
The authors' read: for some adolescents, gender distress may be secondary to other mental health challenges.
The evidence keeps mounting. The silencing continues anyway.
How many more adolescents will be told this is "care"?
one of the greatest things you can build in yourself is the ability to just figure it out. you don’t need to know how. you don’t need the answer yet. you just need that little voice that goes, fuck it. I’ll figure it out. then you do. over and over. eventually you stop being so afraid of what you don’t know.

me seeing Black Marvel fans show interest in #Lanterns:
I heard someone say, satan got adam and eve to fix their eyes on one tree when god had already given them an entire garden, think about that. The enemy didn't have to convince them that they had nothing. He just had to make them forget everything that they already had. And he still, till this day, uses the same strategy. He gets us to focus on relationships we don't have, the job that we don't have, the opportunity we don't have, the healing we haven't seen yet. Meanwhile, we are blind to the countless prayers god has already answered. Gratitude isn't pretending you don't want more, it's refusing to let what you don't have make you forget the goodness of god that's already surrounding you.
