@Notwokenow That is a tragedy! Since America doesn’t have a national language people aren’t required to use any specific language. That’s also why everything has to be printed in so many languages. Was it that he didn’t see the signs or fell asleep?
Polite notice to those urging me to show blind tribal allegiance to a party that's screwed over female nurses who want to change in a female-only space, female prisoners housed with male sex offenders and female rape survivors who want an all-female support service: nope.
The Virginia State Police would like to ensure residents of the Commonwealth that recent viral posts raising concerns about firearm confiscation are not reflective of any proposed legislation, and we remain committed to safeguarding public safety and civil liberties.
The company behind this pill has raised $250 million and is running the largest clinical trial in veterinary history, and the science explains why investors are losing their minds.
The drug is LOY-002, made by a company called Loyal. It works as a caloric restriction mimetic. It tricks the dog's metabolism into behaving like it's on a restricted diet without actually reducing food intake. The biological cascade this triggers is the same one that's extended lifespan in every species ever tested, from yeast to primates.
The FDA has already accepted the safety data and the effectiveness data. Two of three regulatory gates cleared. The third is manufacturing review, expected to complete this year. If approved, LOY-002 becomes the first FDA-approved drug for lifespan extension in any species. Not disease treatment. Not symptom management. Lifespan extension as a formal indication.
The STAY study has 1,300 dogs enrolled across 70 vet clinics. Half get the pill, half get placebo. Both beef-flavored so nobody can tell the difference. It is the largest clinical trial ever conducted in veterinary medicine.
Here's where it gets interesting for humans. Dogs develop the same age-related diseases we do: cancer, heart disease, kidney failure, cognitive decline resembling dementia. They live in our houses, eat similar food, breathe the same air. A mouse in a sterile lab tells you almost nothing about human aging. A golden retriever sleeping on your couch tells you a lot.
Loyal has a second drug, LOY-001, targeting large breeds specifically. Big dogs die younger because centuries of breeding for size accidentally gave them elevated IGF-1 levels, which is the same growth hormone pathway linked to accelerated aging in humans. Reducing IGF-1 in flies, worms, and rodents extends lifespan. Loyal is now testing whether the same holds in dogs.
90 million pet dogs in 60 million US households. Average spending: $1,852 per pet per year. A pill that gives you two more years with your dog is the easiest sell in pharmaceutical history.
Human longevity trials would cost $1 billion+ and take decades. Dog trials cost a fraction and produce data in years. Every dog in the STAY study is generating aging data that maps to human biology. The shortest path to an FDA-approved human longevity drug might run through your veterinarian's office.
SHOCKING: Fox News’ Will Cain exposes that several high-profile scientists and top-secret military officials have recently gone missing or been found dead.
—Carl Grillmair: Astrophysicist at Caltech. “He worked on a NASA-supported space telescope project and infrared systems. Now, he was shot and killed at his home just two months ago.”
—Frank Maiwald: Senior Scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab. “He died nearly two years ago but his cause of death has never been made public.”
—Monica Reza: Connected to NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab Project. “She went missing last summer while hiking in California.”
—William Neil McCasland: Retired Air Force General that oversaw advanced space and surveillance programs. He’s been missing since February. (Connected to Monica Reza)
—Melissa Casias: Worked at Los Alamos National Labs. “She has been missing since last summer.”
—Anthony Chavez: Connected to Los Alamos National Labs. “He disappeared during a walk.”

U.S. Coast Guard Rescue Swimmer Tyler Jaggers has sadly passed away after being severely injured in a high-seas rescue off the coast of Washington state.
Jaggers was injured during a medical evacuation of a cargo-ship crew member who had suffered a stroke.
Jaggers was getting ready to propose to his girlfriend, according to close friends.
"Yesterday, surrounded by the people who love him most, his family carried out the proposal on Tyler's behalf. His dad placed the ring on my hand at his bedside," his fiancée said.
The incident happened about 140 miles off the Washington coast, according to local reports.
"While conducting a helicopter medical evacuation offshore of Washington state, Tyler was seriously injured while being deployed to a large vessel," USCG Rescue Swimmers said on IG.
"After being transported to a hospital in Victoria, Canada, it was determined by doctors that Tyler would not survive his injuries."
"Our brother put his life on the line for someone he had never met, as Coast Guard aircrews and rescue swimmers have done thousands of times before, answering the call so that he and his crew could save a stranger's life."
"Unfortunately, Tyler lost his in the process. He gave his life in the purest act of service: trying to save another."
Rest in peace, Tyler.

BREASTMILK
She thought she was studying milk.
What she uncovered was a conversation.
In 2008, evolutionary anthropologist Katie Hinde was working in a primate research lab in California, analyzing breast milk from rhesus macaque mothers. She had hundreds of samples and thousands of data points. Everything looked ordinary—until one pattern refused to go away.
Mothers raising sons produced milk richer in fat and protein.
Mothers raising daughters produced a larger volume with different nutrient balances.
It was consistent. Repeatable. And deeply uncomfortable for the scientific consensus.
Colleagues suggested error. Noise. Statistical coincidence.
But Katie trusted the data.
And the data pointed to a radical idea.
Milk is not just nutrition.
It is information.
For decades, biology treated breast milk as simple fuel. Calories in. Growth out. But if milk were only calories, why would it change depending on the sex of the baby?
Katie kept digging.
Across more than 250 mothers and over 700 sampling events, the story grew more complex. Younger, first-time mothers produced milk with fewer calories but significantly higher levels of cortisol—the stress hormone.
The babies who drank it grew faster.
They were also more alert, more cautious, more anxious.
Milk wasn’t just building bodies.
It was shaping behavior.
Then came the discovery that changed everything.
When a baby nurses, microscopic amounts of saliva flow back into the breast. That saliva carries biological signals about the infant’s immune system. If the baby is getting sick, the mother’s body detects it.
Within hours, the milk changes.
White blood cells surge.
Macrophages multiply.
Targeted antibodies appear.
When the baby recovers, the milk returns to baseline.
This was not coincidence.
It was call and response.
A biological dialogue refined over millions of years. Invisible—until someone thought to listen.
As Katie reviewed existing research, she noticed something unsettling. There were twice as many scientific studies on erectile dysfunction as on breast milk composition.
The first food every human consumes.
The substance that shaped our species.
Largely ignored.
So she did something bold.
She launched a blog with a deliberately provocative name: Mammals Suck Milk.
It exploded. Over a million readers in its first year. Parents. Doctors. Scientists. People asking questions research had skipped.
The discoveries kept coming.
Milk changes by time of day.
Foremilk differs from hindmilk.
Human milk contains over 200 oligosaccharides babies can’t digest—because they exist to feed beneficial gut bacteria.
Every mother’s milk is biologically unique.
In 2017, Katie brought this work to a TED stage. In 2020, it reached a global audience through Netflix’s Babies. Today, at Arizona State University’s Comparative Lactation Lab, she continues reshaping how medicine understands infant development, neonatal care, formula design, and public health.
The implications are staggering.
Milk has been evolving for more than 200 million years—longer than dinosaurs walked the Earth. What we once dismissed as simple nourishment is one of the most sophisticated communication systems biology has ever produced.
Katie Hinde didn’t just study milk.
She revealed that nourishment is intelligence.
A living, responsive system shaping who we become before we ever speak.
All because one scientist refused to accept that half the story was “measurement error.”
Sometimes the biggest revolutions begin by listening to what everyone else ignores.
🚨 This MRI Can Destroy Cancer Without a Single Cut
In Sydney, doctors are using one of the most advanced cancer treatments on Earth — MRI-guided cryoablation.
Here’s how it works: a tiny probe is guided directly into the tumour using real-time MRI imaging, and the tumour is frozen solid from the inside out. No large cuts. No stitches. No long hospital stays. Patients walk in, watch the procedure under MRI, and walk out the same day — pain-free and scar-free.
This treatment is so precise, it destroys only the tumour while leaving surrounding healthy tissue unharmed. For people too weak for surgery, too old for long recoveries, or with tumours in risky spots, this is a second chance at life.
Fun Fact: The probe can freeze tissue to –40°C or colder, causing cancer cells to burst while leaving everything else intact.
Some breakthroughs don’t need bigger surgeries — they just need smarter, cooler technology.

On Friday, Sept. 19th, Esther Woodlee's nine-year old German Shepard Cody collapsed. But when Woodlee could not locate the ER in Short Pump, she came upon Trooper Trevor Plecker in his vehicle. Hear the rest of the story in their own words:
Fentanyl is being laced into street drugs across the greater PWC area. Fentanyl is undetectable and untraceable, which means it’s causing a spike in teen overdoses. Stay safe by knowing the risks and what to do in case of an overdose.
