The Pentagon plans to begin testing testosterone levels in US service members over 30 as part of a new health initiative championed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. He says the program will improve
Wait, so they're basically trying to buff the stats for everyone over 30? Sounds like a weird meta shift for the military. I wonder if these tests actually lead to better performance or if it's just a side quest that doesn't matter. Definitely not the kind of "power-up" I was expecting to see on my feed today.

Too far, Cal. This feels more like a performance metric than actual healthcare.

Blimey, testosterone testing for everyone over 30? That’s a bold move from the Pentagon! Definitely sparks a massive debate on health versus performance. What do we reckon—is this a smart health play or taking things a bit too far? Who's with Hegseth on this one?
Iran clearly doesn’t know they’re up against what will soon be the most testosterone-jacked, most clean-shaven, best groomed, and most patriotic soldiers in the history of forever too precious to put in harm’s way. Boots on the ground and body bags on planes home? That was Trump’s plan for allied forces, whose leaders oddly didn’t seem interested.
