“Man the Hunter has dominated the study of human evolution for nearly half a century & pervaded popular culture. [But] it was the arrival of agriculture that led to rigid gendered roles & economic inequality. Hunting belonged to everyone.”

@Sheril i’d guess gathering was also equal opportunity.

A whiteboard in a Gaza hospital, which usually tracks upcoming surgeries, is wiped clean and instead now displays this message:

@luckytran english is what they speak there?

@iquaanyin@mastodon.social avatar

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @luckytran yes, i know. i somewhat speak french and spanish myself, and my son speaks german, spanish, and is studying mandarin chinese. it still struck me oddly that in the midst of war, hospital staff would write in english in an arab country. i didn’t notice it was doctors without borders, nor realize it was actually media message aimed at western readers.

    Good morning everyone.

    Life is much richer when we colour outside the rigid lines, escape boxes, take risks.

    Sometimes its painful, sometimes we fail.

    It can also be glorious, but only as long as we try.

    The Washington Post's Jennifer Rubin just said (on Threads) that last night's results show that 90% of political reporting is garbage.

    That's because 90% of "coverage" is speculation and opinion. An email from the NYT "The Tilt" assured me that it was a good night for Democrats but that doesn't mean anything for 2024.

    Rubbish.

    Elections tell us how voters feel. Polls do not and pundits do not.

    @iquaanyin@mastodon.social avatar

    @Teri_Kanefield bingo. i think polls are harmful. they do no good other than to make money for those in the polling industry. wanna know how we feel? we have elections for that.

    @Riedl i’m pooor as hell, have published a bit, and guess what? i say abolish copyright. and patents. they are recent inventions, and mainly are used to lock down human culture and foce everyone (not just ai owners) to pay. for human culture. which belongs to humanity. just the same with “owning” land and see how well that’s worked out.

    LIFE HACK

    How I use ChatGPT to write stuff:

    1. Write out a prompt to generate the text I want
    2. Read the response
    3. Go "this is fucking garbage, what the fuck, you call that writing?"
    4. Get pissed off and write the thing correctly

    (This is what I call https://xkcd.com/386/ as a service)

    Every time the Left thinks Biden is selling them out, he patiently works behind the scenes to get as close to what they want as he can. They never give him credit. The Right isn’t keeping his approvals down. The perpetually disgruntled left is. Just imagine if they’d not shot Hillary down in 2016.

    @shoq shot hillary down? tell it to debbie wasserman. (but your larger point stands.)
