RSPCA reports a 3800% increase in French Bulldogs coming into its care over the last 10 years - as owners struggle to cope with the repercussions of their'cute' features Flat-faced Frenchies and Pugs might look cute, but the RSPCA is warning pet lovers to avoid these breeds amidst a'tragic' rise in abandonments. The number of French Bulldogs coming into care of the RSPCA has increased by a staggering 3,800 per cent in the last 10 years. In 2016, the animal welfare charity took in just six French Bulldogs, or Frenchie crosses, from owners who could no longer safely keep their pets. Last year that figure rose to 234 Frenchies - almost double the number abandoned in four years from 2016 to 2019 combined.

A US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advisory panel has voted to loosen restrictions on controversial peptides that have become popular online, but have not been well researched for human usage. The panel narrowly voted to allow specialised pharmacies to produce drugs including BPC-157, TB-500 and KPV, a major regulatory hurdle towards making them available via prescription. Peptides are small proteins that our bodies normally produce and that have long been used to treat medical conditions, including diabetes. But unregulated injectable peptides have exploded in the online wellness community - including among many young influencers - since GLP-1s (weight loss drugs) became mainstream. The FDA does not have to follow the panel's recommendations, but often does.

Pete Hegseth's Plan for'High T' Troops Is a Junk-Science Fever Dream The defense secretary's idea of administering testosterone therapy to members of the US Armed Forces reveals little understanding of the complexity of hormones. US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has made no secret of his desire for a manlier military . He consistently argues that the US Armed Forces lowered their combat standards in order to include women. He's staged various photo ops in which he exercises and pumps iron with service members. In his speeches, Hegseth says that the Trump administration is restoring a " warrior ethos " to its legions of " war fighters ."

A Ghanaian social media influencer known as Abu Trica, whose real name is Frederick Kumi, has been extradited to the US to face trial for allegedly running a romance scam that defrauded elderly Americans of over $8m (£5.9m). He denies all the charges against him. Prosecutors said he used AI tools to create fake online identities, targeting victims through social media and dating sites, earning their trust then extorting their money. Kumi was flown to the US on Thursday and faces up to 20 years in prison if found guilty of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering. Kumi's lawyer, Oliver Barker-Vormawor, told the BBC he went to court on Thursday to stop the extradition before learning a short while later that Kumi had in fact already been extradited on board a Delta Airlines flight.

Touted as a less-hookup-focused Grindr, Goose is an invite-only space for gay men. The problem is the people promoting it don't seem real. "You're receiving this because you're exactly the type of person we're building this for," the caption reads, accompanied by a code for an invite to a "members only community." The link leads to a login for Goose, a dating and friendship app for gay men with the slogan "for the boys," which allows users to "meet guys through the life you already have," according to its website. Neither does @danielmmulugeta, the cute dark-haired influencer who shared the above caption, with the exact same verbiage, on Close Friends' Stories.

Welcome to the "Temu experience of telehealth," where everyone from Grindr to MAGA influencers can open a virtual clinic selling weight loss drugs and more. This May, the digital search company JustAnswer made an odd pivot: It started selling weight loss drugs. Launching an online pharmacy to peddle GLP-1s wasn't the obvious next step for a business that offers paid guidance from experts, but chief executive Andy Kurtzig says the decision was partly driven by advice from ChatGPT and partly by avid customer interest. The number of queries related to the drugs more than doubled between 2024 and 2025, he says. Plus, it was easy to find help: A company called WhiteLabelMD handles customer service, provides software, and connects patients with clinicians who prescribe drugs like semaglutide and tirzepatide.
