You're talking to one of THOSE vegans who is so crushed by how fallacious and clownish his moral position is that he has retreated into delusions about humans not being carnivores
>>4834151I honestly can’t tell who is saying what in the fuck fest of a thread. People saying shit that’s technically correct one second and then something blatantly wrong in the other. What is this disorder?
>>4834073>They just can’t do them as well as menThat doesn't mean they don't.>risking the breeding stock of a pre-agrarian group of people in arduous and often dangerous physical activity at a time when human numbers were already low and probably didn’t exceed more than a couple dozen on average is stupid and silly for more reasons than one.This is at least a cognizant point. However, it falls apart when you realise that women would have been literally half of the population of a tribe, or clan. Hunting large game when all you have is spears, rocks and big brains is incredibly dangerous and would require every able-bodied person, and that includes women.>I can only assume you’re being so obtuse about this because it offends some kind of sensibility of yours.Because this theory goes against physical evidence. The hunter/gatherer gender split is an interesting theory, but it is entirely unsupported. There is no archaeological evidence of a gender labour divide in stone-age burials, art, and artefacts. >'Women’s experiences hunting among the Agta of the Philippines are particularly vital for consideration when presented with the arguments forwhy women would not hunt in the Paleolithic: that they need to breastfeed frequently and carry children, and they regularly bleed and smell via men-struation (Lee and Devore, 1968). Agta women and men spend equal amounts of time hunting (Goodman et al., 1985), female hunters with childrensee no negative impact on their hunting success or child mortality, and females hunt while menstruating and carrying nursing infants (Estioko-Griffin, 1985; Goodman et al., 1985). Though we are not seeing this as a widespread practice among recent foragers, it challenges the idea thatfemale reproduction inherently renders them ill-suited for hunting. Some women foragers hunt now and in the recent past, and considering all theevidence presented above, they were almost certainly hunting in the deep past too.'-Lacy and Ocobock, 2022

How much truth is there in the claim that magic mushrooms unlock your brain? I need to know before I risk my life for it (where I reside, it is life imprisonment). I don't expect it to improve my intelligence or heal my despair, but is it a life-changing experience? Does it provide you a new perspective?
>>4833733>motor skills shot to shit, language center cant string a sentence, ocular center cant recognize a mistakeNot even shitposting when I ask this but is this a real thing clinically? Ever since I have done mushrooms I have noticed my spelling and grammar go through the fucking floor in terms of coherency.
>>4823091The whole concept of mushrooms unlocking or making you realise things only occurs if you're incredibly stupid or incredibly self-centered. Psychedelics can trigger a big self-reflection moment that allows self-absorbed individuals to realise basic truths that normal people came to terms with in their teens.Do psychedelics to have fun and go to therapy.

>>4834647your brain is a machine, well is circuit board, its designed in a specific way for better or worse, drugs are basically overclocking it in some fashion, but shrooms will make extra connections, some connections are better, some are worse, but more often than not, its going to be worse, like synesthesia is a common thing that happens when tripping out, because the brain is now connecting different parts that really shouldnt be connected

I wish there were more giant birds living, bros. Both predatory carnivores and enormous herbivorous birds. Ostriches only max out at 300-400 pounds and there are no giant terror bird like animals. Mammal dominance is so boring. I would have loved to see how giant predatory flightless birds hunt. Birds have great endurance and greater visual acuity compared to mammals so probably ran after their medium sized prey then kicked and pecked it to death. There's no evidence for group hunting for any of the terror birds despite how smart birds are which is weird.

If a billionaire paid you 10 billion USD to fight a fully grown adult grizzly or a fully grown adult hippo, which one would you fight? Note: You don't have to win the fight, you'd still get the 10 billion even if you dead (can be transferred to your family or anyone you choose)
>>4834479male or female hippo?in what environnement?are we allowed to use weapons? tools?do we have to win the fight? or is the fight considered over once one of us loses?

My mother has a Sonoran desert toad living in her garden which her stupid dogs will not stop trying to harass even after it's poisoned one of them. How do I catch it so I can move it to someone else's garden?
>>4834802grab it
>>4834805>>4834806Okay but I was wondering how to find it first. Is it going to be hiding in the dirt? Will I have to dig for it?
>>4834808Look for it hopping around in the evening and night, especially if it's been raining. During the day it probably resides in some rocks, wood pile or whatever cool and moist hiding spot your mom's garden offers. If there's any water source in the garden it might bathe in it, or if there are light sources where bugs gather it could possibly move there for an easy meal.
>>4834802>put it in someone else's gardenGet it a decent tank and keep it you mong. Free DMT
>>4834802Buy a pizza, once you dispose of the pizza you can them cut the pizza box in two.Next you want to get a bucket, put the bucket on top of the toad and use one of the pizza box halves under the bucket. Congratulations! your toad is now caught and you can move it somewhere else
