What a shame. I almost believed that he had one redeeming quality as a politician in not totally ignoring people who's lives he has the ability to ruin...

Oh well...

Trump's negotiated withdraw of Afghanistan included peace talks. Basically, if you are a woman and voted for Biden, you completely fucked every woman in Afghanistan.

Studying 740 women, those with high calorie intakes when conceiving were more likely to have boys. Having fewer calories is associated with having girls.

The only category of food with a significant correlation was breakfast cereal (positive). The only correlated nutrient was potassium (also positive).

So if you want a boy, make sure she eats over 2250 calories a day, has at least 7 bowls of cereal a week, and has good potassium.

This apparently can turn the 50:50 into 55:45.

@LukeAlmighty @tengumatingpress And that’s specifically darwinian evolution, which contrasted the lamarckian belief of how changes could be inherited–e.g. giraffes only have long necks because they’ve spent many generations stretching their necks to reach high things. If you work out your biceps a lot, you’ll have a kid with strong biceps. When we didn’t know anything about genes that seemed like a plausible explanation too.

This wasn’t long after spontaneous generation was a common belief. People actually thought their bags of grain were spawning mice, that burning logs created salamanders, that rotting meat created maggots, etc.

@tengumatingpress If anything our society understands it less now. Apply natural selection and hereditarianism too consistently and you are a white-supremacist pseudo-scientist eugeniscist. The only take-away from evolutionary theory we are supposed to have is that the book of genesis didn't literally happen so we can be hedonistic degenerates and not do what our parents or pastor say.
