"A new study published by researchers at London's Natural History Museum and Institute of Philosophy, KU Leuven has reinforced the claim that Neanderthals and modern-day humans (Homo sapiens) must be classed as separate species in order to best track our evolutionary history."

"The study claims that if interbreeding was the final word in determining species status, then hundreds of distinct species of mammals and birds today would have their separate species status revoked and that without recognizing patterns in evolution and subsequent categorization, the question of when a species first appeared becomes more intractable."

Left-wing activist academics have spent decades arguing that Neanderthals were merely a subspecies of Homo sapiens — a transparent distortion of human taxonomy to support their claim that no human subspecies (races) exist today. Nice to see some academic pushback against this nonsense.

Alguém explica aí o motivo do qual uma melancia é anti-semita...

The Economist counted about 100,000 dead Ukrainian military personnel since the beginning of the Northern Military District. In addition, another 400,000 Ukrainian troops were seriously injured

The publication reports that more than 0.5% of Ukraine's pre-war male population (18–49 years old) died, and "about 5% were either killed or too wounded to fight."

These losses, expressed as a percentage of the population, exceed the US death toll in Vietnam and Korea combined and are approaching World War II levels, The Economist notes

An interesting story about how Jews paid Chinese celebrities to travel to Israel and lie at home that in Israel the kibbutzim have the most correct socialism.
