We’ve done menstruation, let’s talk about the menopause! Because only women however they present can have the menopause although men who have had treatments for prostate cancer can have symptoms mimicking the menopause. There’s nothing scary about

the menopause. It’s a perfectly natural function of the body but it’s tied up with a thousand stereotypes of women, ageism and ‘old women are frightening’. True, old women are often very frightening to young men because look! A woman who doesn’t give a rat’s
arse what you think of her now all her mating hormones have gone and with it your charm as a potential mate. Now you’re just another annoying lad. That’s gotta hurt. Menopause means Wisdom, like it or not and it’s not always nice or cosy. Old women
are encouraged to refer to themselves as ‘young at heart’ and ‘as young as you feel’ and other such crap and told to ‘never give in to age’ which is ludicrous. Cosmetic surgery is now a thing but I can tell you what the surgeons and marketing
men won’t - it does not make you look young. You’re just an old woman who looks like at best, she’s had a great holiday and at worst like she was was trapped in a wind tunnel. Old is good. Old is meritorious. Old is survival. Old means you didn’t die young
so you’re a winner. Yes the menopause can - but not always by any means - come with annoying and uncomfortable physical symptoms it’s true. But they pass although sometimes - again not always - after a while. But if you survived puberty
you can survive menopause because it’s the same kind of thing but for old women. That’s why old men are often silly, because they’re perpetually adolescent. Old women are Fighting Crones. Menopause means you don’t have the tedious
business of menstruation and you can shag to your hearts content another thing that freaks men out quite often. Your skin will change and your hair will grey. Dying grey hair is a choice but be warned, Aubergine Lights didn’t look good at 25 and it looks
grim AF against old skin. Go lighter not darker. Or be a Grey Witch and embrace the beauty of silver. Don’t listen to morons who say ‘old women are ugly’ they aren’t. Wear a bikini on the beach if you like or go naked. If someone doesn’t like looking
at you let them look at the view it’s what they paid for the holiday for. Some women have an easy menopause and some don’t. But if you feel snappy and annoyed it might well be because the scales Society put on your eyes have dropped away and you’re seeing
the truth of women’s lives at last. If you have a dry vagina due to hormone depletion and it bothers you talk to your female GP and get localised oestrogen. If your face feels dry use a thicker moisturiser than you used to. If you put weight on or
your body shape changes keep as fit as you can but basically, fuck it, you weren’t put on this earth to conform to bullshit stereotypes. Menopause means freedom. You can live thinking it’s a curse or you can go fuck it, my time now. Good luck.

Thread on how atheism leads to mental retardation (backed with medical citations🧵💉)

To start with, atheism is an unnatural self-contradicting doctrine.

Medical terminology proves that human beings are naturally pre-disposed to believe in God. Oxford scientists assert that people are "born believers".

It should be known that atheism could never produce an intelligently-functioning society and neither ever will.

Contrastingly, Islam produced several intellectuals & polymaths, was on the forefront of scientific development, boasting 100% literacy


It is also scientifically proven that atheism led to lesser scientific curiosity and scientific frauds, which is also why atheists incline to pseudo-science.

Whereas, religion in general and Islam in particular boosted education.

Atheists are also likely to affected by pervasive mental and developmental disorders like high-functioning autism.

Cognitive Scientists and renowned Neurologists found that more atheism is leads to greater autism.

No-regret #hydrogen:
Charting early steps for H₂ infrastructure in Europe.

👉Summary of conclusions of a new study by @AgoraEW @AFRY_global @Ma_Deutsch @gnievchenko (1/17)
https://t.co/YA50FA57Em


The idea behind this study is that future hydrogen demand is highly uncertain and we don’t want to spend tens of billions of euros to repurpose a network which won’t be needed. For instance, hydrogen in ground transport is a hotly debated topic
https://t.co/RlnqDYVzpr (2/17)

Similar things can be said about heat. 40% of today’s industrial natural gas use in the EU goes to heat below 100°C and therefore is within range of electric heat pumps – whose performance factors far exceed 100%. (3/17)


Even for higher temperatures, a range of power-to-heat (PtH) options can be more energy-efficient than hydrogen and should be considered first. Available PtH technologies can cover all temperature levels needed in industrial production (e.g. electric arc furnace: 3500°C). (4/17)


In our view, hydrogen use for feedstock and chemical reactions is the only inescapable source of industrial hydrogen demand in Europe that does not lend itself to electrification. Examples include ammonia, steel, and petrochemical industries. (5/17)
