dragontangram88 , in US changes how it categorizes people by race and ethnicity. It's the first revision in 27 years

If the government really wanted to collect data for insuring that minority groups have equal representation, they would collect your blood type information and use that instead. Since O+ is the majority of blood type in the world, I feel underrepresented in every respect.

O+ is a suckers game. O- represent!

Stern , in In Arizona’s Most Populous County, There’s a New Sheriff in Town
@Stern@lemmy.world avatar

If no Dems applied for the spot (Despite several running in the upcoming election? Not understanding that rationale unless they got term limits that are super strict.), what are they supposed to do? Let the chief deputy be the temp sheriff until the election? Doesn’t seem like that changes much for his sheriff campaign.

Considering abundance & multivitamins: I eat fruits & veggies for the fiber not nutrition.

If you want a more in depth discussion on this, I recently listened to a Traceroute podcast episode on this:

BonesOfTheMoon OP ,

Oh wonderful thank you. I do.

UnculturedSwine , in Plant-heavy ‘flexitarian’ diets could help limit global heating, study finds

Interesting to note that the study has been funded by the Rockefeller foundation. Eating less meat is one piece of the decarbonization puzzle but I feel that the language of this article and the study implies that we need to focus mostly on this and turn a blind eye to the other ways we’re feeding into climate change.

You do realize the younger Rockefeller died like 70 years ago, right? That’s not the discrediting factor you think it is.

I need a good suit. Look at the guy, he looks damn good in that suit. If I get croaked in an accident tomorrow my company is going to go use a stock photo from a Walmart wallet. All I got is jeans 👖. Jeans and a T-shirt. What else do I need? But it just doesn’t make a good photo.

dragontangram88 , in The federal government plans to kill half a million West Coast owls
@dragontangram88@lemmy.world avatar

Why don’t they just trap the barred owls and place them in zoos, aviaries, and other protected places. Why do they need to be killed?

@anon6789@lemmy.world avatar

Barred Owls are very successful owls and there is no shortage of them. That’s why they can kill so many of them and it won’t hurt the population as a whole. Anyone who wants a Barred Owl already has one. It’s like how you would immediately overload regular animal shelters if you collected every stray dog or cat and asked them to feed and home them on their own dime. Zoos are a bit different I believe, but raptor shelters are all privately funded and in most states you can count one one hand the number of people licensed to properly care for them. There is a ton of bureaucracy in place, designed to protect these animals, that limits greatly who can do what with them. It’s technically a felony for a person to have a single owl feather.

The real problem is humans have destroyed the environment where these much less aggressive and adaptable Spotted Owls live, and we expect them to survive in a niche that doesn’t work for them. The Barred Owls are the unfortunate scapegoat here.

Without the US and Canada willing to say no to their respective timber industries, I say let them hybridize. Otherwise I’m afraid the Spotted Owl will be gone from the wild in my lifetime. Raising them captive and releasing them has not been working well either. See the article in the edit of my big post.

It’s like if we cloned a mammoth. We can make more, but the environment they lived in doesn’t really exist anymore.

RizzRustbolt , in Researchers analysed songs lyrics across several genres from 1980 to 2020, found that song lyrics getting simpler, more repetitive, angry and self-obsessed

And that’s in comparison to the 80s. The most repetitive, angry and self-obsessed decade ever.

bradorsomething , in Oregon city can't limit church's homeless meal services, federal judge rules

Surprised brookings would be so conservative, I expected this to be in eastern oregon.

young_broccoli , in Researchers analysed songs lyrics across several genres from 1980 to 2020, found that song lyrics getting simpler, more repetitive, angry and self-obsessed

A team of European researchers analyzed the words in more than 12,000 English-language songs across the genres of rap, country, pop, R&B and rock from 1980 to 2020.

That explains their results. Very limited genre and language selection and a laughably minuscule sample size when about 100k new songs are uploaded daily to the internets.
Dumb "research".
