It’s in the ultra marathons that women keep up with men and sometimes beat them

There’s a point at which women do tend to get better at endurance racing and often surpass men. And it’s in the ultra long distance races. Which actually tracks, as hunting would have likely been a mix of long and ultra long distance running
If nobody talked about it, how do you know it was normal behavior?
We don’t need evenly distributed emotions! They’ll just trickle down from the most emotional to the rest of us
Black Girl Games is one of several consulting companies that promote more diversity in games and other media. Not to exclude white people completely.
Let’s see what we can agree on here, please stop me when you disagree with my statement.
Racism still exists and is a problem in the world today
The best tool we have against racism is knowledge and exposure to other cultures and ethnicities
Having more than two or three AAA games with a main character that is a minority will give gamers that first hand experience with the represented culture
Therefore, more representation is good for combating racism and as an extra benefit is giving more diverse worlds/stories to play
There are still a metric buttload of games with white main characters or character creators that let you be white
Minorities will be happy to see themselves represented
Diversity is not the enemy, and companies are trying to level the playing field, not erase white people
I want to know specifically what your problem with dei efforts are so we can clear up any confusion.
Wow, just looked into it cuz I hadn’t heard about that. And yeah, it looks like that’s exactly what he did a month after becoming CEO. In fact it looks like they closed the entire publishing side of the company and possibly laid those employees off. Super disappointed to hear that from the studio behind such a beloved game
Omg I can practically see it, incredible
They’re not mocking the religion tho, they’re using it as part of their game but removing the melanin. It’s whitewashing basically, that’s what they’re upset about. It’s really only tangentially related to religion
Be careful with inkjet photo paper in a laser printer. In particular, the glossy paper will typically have a coating that may come off in the laser printer due to the heat and pressure the printer uses, and that can cause issues over time.
no one can copyright the basic idea anyways
I can think of a couple companies that would try anyway :P
I haven’t looked into it too much or done it myself, but I heard of https://creativeheartwarrior.com/pages/filament-recycling
Looks like they currently only take filament as a donation and not as an exchange.
Edit: also found https://printeriordesigns.com/pages/recycling
(Again, haven’t personally tried)
Def some better than others. I give them props because looking through the modlog, they are good at removing or banning trolls, bigots, and far right disinfo. I just personally disagree with the seemingly frequent support for Russia, China, North Korea, etc.
At least in memes, politics isn’t the focus of the community.
Oh thanks I appreciate it, I think it was a solid meme. No community is perfect, but at least it’s easy to find an alternative community if one ends up… not being a good fit lol
That’s actually what my deleted comment was about, looking at the reasons given in the modlog for deleting comments. Inb4 this comment gets deleted too lmao
Hey that’s me!
reason: lemmy.ml rule 1 (“butt hurt”)
I’m not really butt hurt. I’m actually a mod myself, but for a tiny community that doesn’t get a bunch of awful comments. I really do have respect for the amount of garbage the mods in worldnews@lemmy.ml and memes@lemmy.ml have to go through. Most of the comments they remove are completely valid.
But this is a meme sub so…
What the heck did you just hecking say about me, you little mod? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the lemmy.world Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda.ml, and I have over 300 confirmed comments. I am trained in gorilla shitposting and I’m the top sniper in the entire fediverse armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another mod. I will wipe you the heck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my hecking words. You think you can get away with saying that poopy to me over the Internet? Think again, meanypants. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the fediverse and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, picklebrain. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your modlog. You’re hecking over, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can comment at you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in verbal combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the lemmy Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable bubblebutt off the face of the Internet, you little bozo. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” mod action was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your hecking finger. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goshdarn dumbo. I will poop butthurt comments all over you and you will drown in it. You’re hecking done, kiddo.
<3
I was curious so I looked in the modlog at your deleted comments. Some of them I honestly agree with being removed, but there are some odd deletions there.
Like your comment that was removed for “reason: Human wave tactics meme” is pretty tame and doesn’t break any actual rules. Seems like a mod on worldnews@lemmy.ml is just butt hurt by anti-russia comments. What a weird reason for removal.
Edit: wow, just went down the rabbit hole of looking at what those mods in particular have been removing. They’re all very obviously pro China and Russia.
Like this one was particularly interesting. On a post titled ‘China doesn’t need to invade to achieve Taiwanese unification’ a user commented just “*occupation” and the comment was removed for reason: Google White terror KMT. So… that’s not a real reason. Just an abuse of power by the mod due to political bias. Cool.
Edit x2: That said, thank you lemmy for making everything so transparent so we can see all the info we need to keep everyone accountable
Lucky, my school only did gay algebra and look at me now 😩
Right, sorry for the confusion. I was referring to the definition of idealist "One whose conduct or thinking is influenced by ideals that often conflict with practical considerations. "
Not that I necessarily am “An adherent of any system of philosophical idealism.”
But yes, I’ll read more Marxist theory specifically. I don’t have trouble interacting with leftists online very much, it’s just when I see leftists who are strictly authoritarian. The “by any means necessary” just ain’t it for me
So we just need super smart authoritarian communist to lead a bloody revolution backed by the uneducated masses that will then be handed over peacefully to the uneducated masses once communism is firmly established?
I support communism, I want revolutionary change, and I’m an idealist. But I don’t understand how that’s realistically possible. Theoretically possible, but the number of complications that would arise, the number of variables that could go wrong and destroy the entire movement, how easy it would be to corrupt… It’s never happened before for a reason, and having violent, bloody revolutions every few decades in the hopes it finally works perfectly this time doesn’t seem constructive or intelligent to me. There has to be a better way to balance how fast the change happens and how fragile and volatile the system will be during the change
For the IAU records on Wikipedia, yeah. A couple things to keep in mind, 80% of the people who complete an ultra marathon are male. And the gap between the sexes, some estimate around 4% for ultra marathons, seems to be trending down.

Here’s better research I found. You’re right, men still win more often and have the records. But honestly it’s more complicated than just who is faster.
