Novo Nordisk to test weight-loss drugs’ effect on alcohol use and liver disease
Novo Nordisk's results are stunning - and it could be on the brink of something even more exciting.
Novo Nordisk now expects its sales growth to rise this year by between 19% and 27% - up from the 18% to 26% it was forecasting as recently as January - while it expects profits to grow by between 22% and 30% this year.
At its recent capital markets day, in March, Novo Nordisk gave more details on Amycretin, an experimental weight loss pill it is working on and which is being touted as potentially even more potent than Wegovy itself.

@Norwegian-Mugabe I could not believe what I was reading about Ozempic companion meals (kits!!!). Not satire. wtf. Every one is insane and retarded.
There really should be companion meals ("kits") for every popular drug.
SSRI companion pizzas.
Finasteride companion veggie burgers.
Statin companion snack cakes.

@DavidPS That housing graph is probably pre-tax too. The difference is even greater after tax as taxes have increased. The whole system is a scam against the productive middle class.

Across the Supreme Court, Circuit and District courts, 65 percent of Trump's appointments are White men. Just 13 percent of Biden's Senate-confirmed appointments so far are White men, according to a Post analysis of self-reported race and ethnicity data from the Federal Judicial Center.
Rising Number of Men Don't Want to Work.
A larger factor may be men's declining participation in higher education. While women historically were excluded from universities, they now outpace men at college roughly 60 to 40 percent.
Over the timespan of 1980 and 2019, non-college-educated men's median weekly earnings went down 17 percent after inflation, while college-educated men saw earnings rise by 20 percent.Young more anti-immigration than old in parts of Europe, polling shows.

Now the regime in the West will try to make the decline seem purposeful as the decline seems almost unavoidable at this point.
Is America Ready for ‘Degrowth Communism’?
Just google Degrowth communism and look at how much this has been pushed over the last few days. This is a coordinated attack that tries to create the opportunity to introduce the most hellish communism in history. They will make a cult of bringing down well-functional institutions including innovative hubs. This form of communism does not hide the envy and resentment that regular communism has as its roots as well. Degrowth communism is explicit in that it wants to bring successfully well-functional people and institutions down.
Orange juice makers consider using other fruits after prices go ‘bananas’
The predicted poor crop in Brazil, which accounts for 70% of all orange juice exports, marks the third difficult global harvest in a row. As well as problems in Brazil, Florida in the US has been hit by a series of hurricanes and the greening disease, which is spread by sap-sucking insects and turns the fruit bitter before killing the tree.
The IFU has said it is considering lobbying for a rewrite of UN-level food regulations so that orange juice can contain other citrus fruits, as well as pursuing rule changes at the country level.

I've never understood why someone would have "pride" in their sexual identity. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fascist, but I find it weird someone would wrap their entire existence into the people they have sex with. You don't see the vast majority of heterosexuals acting like this.
Pride is something you have in great personal accomplishments, not things inherent to one's identity. I'm no more prideful of my heterosexuality as I am of my green eyes or brown hair, lol.
