Postpartum prescription of #GLP-1RAs in Denmark increased between 2018 and 2024, with #semaglutide accounting for most prescriptions since 2023. Most users had #overweight or #obesity, and only 23% had a #diabetes diagnosis.

NEW: Data on Russian forces’ rate of advance indicates that a Russian military victory in Ukraine is not inevitable, and a rapid Russian seizure of the rest of Donetsk Oblast is not imminent. Russian advances elsewhere on the frontline have been opportunistic and exploited seasonal weather. ⬇️🧵

Debatten om fri ved barns sygdom bør ses i helhed: Sverige har 480 dages barsel og fuld ret til at passe sygt barn. Til gengæld ingen omsorgsdage, og søskende kun garanteret 15 timer i daginstitution under barsel. Skal vi tilpasse, må vi se på hele pakken.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

1/5 Why do we still allow Trump to negotiate on the war in Ukraine?
The US does not fund Ukraine. Trump and his team are compromised by Russia.
Europe pays the bills, yet Trump sits at the table.
There is zero reason for him and his team of traitors to be involved

Overview of the transition across Europe
Here’s a look at how different European countries are progressing.
I’ve also included 🇹🇷 Türkiye for comparison — its BEV share so far in 2025 is 16.9%, higher than the 🇪🇺 EU-27 average but lower than the wider EU + EFTA + UK region (31 countries).

Couldn't agree more.
The problem is: I absolutely see a scenario where Europeans, after an acceptable deal, go back into comfort zone and argue that alliances are part of US national interest and Europe is vital to US grand strategy.
This is very dangerous because Europe can't rely on US.

Yes, but it is also a fact now that there is a pattern to it.
As the saying goes, fool me once, shame on you, fool my twice, shame on me. The Europeans should no longer dellude themselves that a Trump/Vance US can be a reliable ally.

The Trump cycle on Russia-Ukraine. Some pro-Russian plan emerges. Instant commentariat renew their "Trump as Russian plant" stories. Plan is amended under EU (and US) pressure. Putin rejects it. Instant commentariat is puzzled. Rinse and repeat. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/24/u...

This headline is quite painful - but perhaps telling. Survival for Ukraine is now not only on the battlefield against Russia, it's also dealing with Trump's volatility and US power politics & coercion towards partners.

Russian power outage thread 👎 😎
TOP-5 border cities of Russia where regular scheduled power outages were already introduced in the second half of November 2025.
Officially, this is everywhere called "maintenance work," "equipment replacement," or "preparation for winter." None of these cities publicly admit

Is the Russia–Ukraine war morphing into The Great Northern War II? Russia isolated, Ukraine backed mainly by NB8, Poland and Germany, while most others cheer from the sidelines with little real weight.

Jeg tror man bare overordnet skal konstatere:
1. I USA er der forskellige fraktioner som kæmper om at definere dagsordenen, og den pro-russiske fløj står stærkt.
2. Donald Trump skifter mening konstant.
3. Det amerikanske statsapparat er i nedsmeltning, og vi kan ikke forvente lederskab fra USA.
