Wood burning can cause cancer, esp lung cancer, respiratory disease, heart disease, dementia, premature death, & other health issues which are devastating. Wood burning emits more CO2 than gas. Inaction and silence on this affects everyone.
No laws to stop residential burning (fireplaces, fire pits, backyard burning, planned burns), & no public campaign on the dangers of residential burning means anyone can burn and emit smoke into your home. No action now, leaves you, the next generation, & environment unprotected

2. Sperm concentration (SC) declined from 101 million/ml (1973) to 49 million/ml (2018). SC declined by 1.16% per year and 51.6% overall. The probability of conception drops off rapidly as SC declines below 40-50 million/ml.
3. The proportion of in vitro fertilization (IVF) births has increased over the study period of this analysis, with eight million IVF babies born worldwide since the world’s first IVF birth in 1978.
Did you know that people with mental illness tend to die earlier than the general population? The lifespan reduction can be anywhere from 7 to 30 years. (1/4)
Recent evidence from large population studies of over 7 million people shows that people with all mental disorders are more likely to die early deaths. Men are losing 10 years of life, while women are losing 7 years. (2/4) #womenshealth #menshealth
Contrary to popular belief, suicide is not the primary cause of death among people with mental illness. The main causes are cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, and dementia. (3/4) researchsquare.com/article/rs-184…

1) A common misconception in Asian Twitter & Reddit spaces is that AMs & WFs have lower rates of STDs than AFs, implying AMs are more incel than AFs. However stats from @CDCgov indicate otherwise. A long thread. #STDawareness #asian #asianmalewhitefemale #whitemaleasianfemale
2) The claim that AMs and WFs have lower rates of STDs than AFs come from this study by Hahm et al: guttmacher.org/journals/psrh/…, which found that AAPI females report STDs four times more than AAPI males & about 50% more than WFs. #AAPI #STDawareness #STDfacts #Asiansgonewild
3) However, if you look at Hahm et al's method of measuring STD rates, it's just a question asking if a doctor or nurse told the participant they had certain STDs, including HPV, bacterial vaginosis and nongonococcal vaginitis. guttmacher.org/journals/psrh/… #STDawareness #AAPI
The Ivernian ventured out, to a cricket match. Engaging with others for the first time in a long time.
He realised he needed to make some changes
Resolve grew. And he formed a small purpose in volunteering to research cars to buy for a friend.

The Antipodean Writer told herself the Ivernian had had a series of stressful events recently
The death of his mother, selling the beloved family home, the great sickness.
Coming to terms with his depression.
The Ivernian was alone. Alone in a borrowed unit, waiting for others to bring him Christmas cheer.
He paced. And he paced. And then he picked up his guitar.
The guitar, which he was able to make sing most sweetly, was a comfort, a constant and a friend.
This is personal: #ColonHealth
If you’re male (or were born male), you should get a colonoscopy if you’re 50 or older. There are times when earlier makes sense (check w/your own doc) Years ago, I picked a stomach virus while in Europe or China (never definitively identified), that wouldn’t go away.
Finally, in desperation (I’d lost 30# in 3 months), my Dr. ordered both endoscopy and colonoscopy. The doc who did the colonoscopy noticed that something didn’t look right, and sent me to an oncologist who removed some tissues that turned out to be pre-cancerous cells.
What no one tells you about the street aphrodisiac(concoction)
Do you know it can lead to Priapism?
This is m sustained painful erection that is not sexual in nature usually lasting 4hrs or more
Men will come to hospital with PAINFUL erection for hours to days

This is dangerous!
If this persist for too long, blood becomes trapped inside & the tissue of the penis can become irreversibly damaged.
The treatment of the condition is not a joke please
Achieving an erection can become impossible afterwards without penile prosthesis

Some men experience this in their 20s
If you are having problems with performance, go and see your Urologist/Doctors instead of drinking those concoctions
Ps
There are other medical conditions that can cause priapism

2. The prostate is about the size of a walnut (ok closer to home... size of one large masuku) and grows steadily with age. #menshealth #beginnersguidetoprostatecancer #urologyinzambia @bwantu
3. Prostatic growth is dependant on potent activated testosterone known as DHT... also responsible for male balding #beginnersguidetoprostatecancer #menshealth #prostate101 #urologyinzambia
