There’s got to be some psychological hack to this for some people, and I envy them. Imagine getting satisfaction from having gone to the gym just to walk… Gym is already a lazy form of workout even if you exert yourself.

Then again, the only people I see walking on treadmills are fairly in-shape young women, so it’s hardly an issue

Pagan baby won’t you rock with me

now journalism, sociology, economics and civics, on the other hand…

No, but we probably sounded something like that way before there were neanderthals and modern humans though. At some point, somebody figured out how to tell their peers that they’re going to have to hunt for something big

They did speak weird though! Analysis of their airways suggest that they had a much higher-pitched voice than our kind, and probably had a harder time with consonants. So their language would have certainly been different. Although we have no way of knowing if parts of their language still lives on in our speech today.

Men visst, “talare” blir lite roligt på svenska

Right, so I seem to have gotten it wrong on his name. It was Neander (New Man in greek) rather than Neumann (New Man in german), but I should also have specified in the meme that the name means New Man.

I wonder if AOC would be a point of contention for swing voters though. She’s obviously great and very competent, but that has put a target on her back that has given her press that could be deterimental to a presidential candidate. Though I suppose that goes for all presidential candidates

Who’d be the dream choice for american democrats? Hillary Clinton? Michelle Obama (who’s not even a politician) with Barrack as advisor or VP?

I get that this is Lemmy and most people here are communists who’ll say Bernie Sanders, and that’s fine too, but wouldn’t he turn away a bunch of voters?

That one takes the cake! How does that happen? Is there welsh, saxon and latin in there or something?

Hehe. Never heard of that one. I want to know how aware these people are when they name things. In sports, a bit of humor is probably common, but with the neanderthals, I just don’t see the high-strung scientists of the late 1800’s intentionally making a joke on this kind of thing. I do however see them doubling down on a decision even if it’s pointed out that it’s stupid.

I don’t want to brag, but I learned this from a book

If you know how to yell and shout to get your way, then you should come to Sweden! Välkommen, min vän!

Somebody refered to her as a “hot blonde” when it first happened, and got downvoted and chastised with “that’s a child!!” lol.

She did look young in the pictures, but he was right. That is one hot blonde

Yet I’m the one who’s removed for disagreeing with the mandatory opinions

Removed by mod

And not the next

A “red wine guy”. Ugh.

Wasn’t she their rep in the UN Security Council?

I’ve been thinking dementia for 8 years, but it just never seems progress.
