- Comment on Iran says oil will reach $200 a barrel, warns of 'continuous strikes' 3 days ago:
Fun Fact: one of the things the DoD does when they’re not fighting worthless crusades for the oil barons is draw up contingency plans for every possible scenario.
Suprise attacks on allies, alien invasions, etc.
One of the plans was for fighting the entire world. To do it, they planned on using the navy and missile strikes to shut down global oil transport. America is the largest oil producer after all, only Russia was considered a military threat with enough native supply to resist the effort.
Anyways, sure is weird how close we’re getting to being able to do that.

Hominini is not the same thing as hominin, in short. Hominins are more properly known as the subtribe hominina of the tribe hominini.
I know, it’s obnoxious. It’s like some of these dudes are just making names up as they go along.
- Comment on Researchers Train Bacteria to Consume Tumors from the Inside Out 1 week ago:
There’s another study from the same team about successfully modifying the species to resist oxygen “at key moments” lol
cambridgetoday.ca/…/waterloo-team-engineers-bacte…
This article has more specific details about the research. Not to be too reductive but quorum sensing is the mechanism that typically flips an infection from passive growth into “start killing this bitch we have the numbers now”
So what they think they’ve done is create a mechanism to lets them turn the oxygen resistance on and off, but what’s going to happen is the cells that then mutate out of turning if off are going to be the simply superior organism.

1: Neanderthals are also humans for the purpose you’re discussing, the results of higher cognitive functions. The label is actually applied to all hominins by anthropologists (note the nin and not nid)
2: A lot of tribal cultures have historically had more female autonomy than women in industrialized or preindustrial cultures. There’s a lot of discussion about why that is exactly but this image of women as caveman chattel is just a lie
