So the "Peptide Party" has been cancelled after Karanataka State Food and Drug Administration officials took note and reached out to the health and science illiterate organizers.

Instead of proving their point and why this party was indeed essential, they just immediately decided to cancel it. If there was any real evidence to the claims they made or for what they were doing, or planned to do, they wouldn't have chickened out.

This just goes to show what a shitshow wellness industry really is because any tom, dick and harry can take a product studied in rats and just run it through a party on magical thinking.

Independent laboratory testing of underground (like this party and similar party) or online-purchased peptides (such as those marketed for weight loss, or muscle growth like BPC-157 and TB-500) shows actual active ingredient concentrations range wildly from 0% (empty vials) to 190% of the labeled claims. This has led to organ injury, including liver failure.

When doctors like myself advice people to stay away from rubbish like peptides that endanger public, it is not some conspiracy theory. It means public health advisory. But some of the techbros think these peptides are going to put us out of "business" and cure "aging". If there was a peptide for the 'braindead activity' like the promoters of this peptide party have, I'm all for it.

So stop with this bullshit before you get killed, or kill someone. Focus on building things that you have some expertise on.

@denkmit @anyaxmar Concerning to see this elsewhere as well.
Fascism has taken main stage in India too. It's beyond wild and ugly af. Living in extraordinary times.

It will be India's first if an Ayurveda or Homeopathy "surgeon" did it. This was already done in 2017 at Lokmanya Hospital. I suggest teleprompter for social media posts also.

@denkmit I'm struggling to understand why Aprilia didn't retain Ai Ogura. Or was it Ogura's wish to leave a join a Japanese team?

@steveonomics Heavy is subjective.

It has been less than four years, since ChatGPT made its public debut, but talk of AI has taken over business, investing and even personal conversations. The AI debate, though, has gone off the tracks as people talk past each other and distractions about. My attempt to make sense of it all: https://t.co/SHJe0emQy4

BSB is the gold standard of post-incident medical updates. Formal, official, concise yet detailed, and issued after an appropriate period of time. MotoGP could learn a lot from it…

@denkmit Mate, must say you've lost some weight. Keep at it.

[Vivek @bumvee]

@matoxley @SirGuyGuisborne Fascinating.

@theliverdoc San Junipero just might be the one of the greatest episodes in fiction. Even the soundtrack is 👌

APPEAL TO TATA GROUP

We, the players of Jamshedpur, with folded hands plead to Tata’s Top Leadership to rethink their decision. And not destroy the future of Indian Football. This club is the heart and soul of Indian football and the only hope for lakhs of upcoming players.

@owaisyaqoob313 Great going, man! You absolutely deserved this!

[Vivek @bumvee]

@denkmit of course!!

[Vivek @bumvee]

@ians_india As journalists do you even pause and throw in a rebuttal or just record whatever the hell dimwits like these spew!? Terrible work.
