Tarkus posted:I'm not sure it's about wanting to kill humans but that maybe they look so close to humans that they make them deeply uncannily uncomfortable or something. That's my guess anyways. Yeah it could very well be an evolutionary thing. There's a reason all of our cousin species of homo died out. Maybe ties into uncanny valley etc.

Idk that interpretation is disputed these days *looks at extremely normal, not insane or perverted goon, but supposedly real science information* Guess they went extinct in part through being unable to compete with the "Homo sapiens-Canis familiaris predatory complex," and in part by reproductive merging with anatomically modern humans. Domestication of the wolf into the dog started essentially the instant humans came into contact with wolves and is confirmed to be tens of thousands of years before any other animal. Wolves started self-domesticating into dogs in a mutually beneficial way but this maybe wasn't possible with neanderthals because wolves were non-novel predators to them. However, humans were effective novel predators to large game in the region -- humans and wolves were compatible in a way that neanderthals and wolves weren't. + Seems as if you have specific combos of neanderthal/sapiens parents you'll be sterile/fertile. Either way you can just integrate with society and maybe pass your genes. Sticking completely with neanderthal side means you need big land tracts at lower population density to get the similar amount of resources. Humans and neanderthals were compatible in a lopsided way that just eventually forces neanderthals into total absorption or extinction (so, imo, unintentional genocide) -- they have no options available. If sapiens hadn't gotten to europe at the time they did but later neanderthals might have been fully reproductively incompatible. Overall maybe less of direct mortal combat type stuff going on than people used to think. In general all the crap i've seen shows that humans have always exerted strong direct pressure since they moved in, but the pressure they exert by modifying the environment is dramatically more, 10x or 100x, before industry, before agriculture. Most of the wild stuff from extinct beasts thread that was still kicking when humans rolled in could hypothetically handle humans themselves being there, but the entire ecosystem changing was what really hosed things over for them and made everything impossible to survive. What we know for certain... *takes a drag off a cig* what ever happened back then... *posts on something awful* we're the last of our kind, we're all Homo now...

oh hey I haven't checked this thread in months, I wonder what's newSuper Waffle posted:Part of me has to wonder if the whole thing about women not wanting to date bi-men is rooted in insecurity. "If he's bi I have to worry about him cheating with both women AND men" kind of thing. I'm like a month late on this, but I wanted to mention - a lot of homophobia and biphobia is rooted in the idea that a dude who wants to gently caress another dude will be unable to resist temptation, that they will simply be compelled. There's a lot of "the Devil made me do it" poo poo to unpack there, but to a certain kind of conservatively-oriented brain, The Queers simply cannot be trusted. Especially if you (wrongly) consider queerness of whatever variety to be a choice, or even grew up around people who did, it's not hard to see a bi man as someone who is just waiting to cheat on you. It sucks and I hate it, personally *** also I wholly believe you, UFO Goon I had too much caffeine in college and met God (She was very cool btw - and yes, it's where my username comes from) so who am I to cast doubt

I had an ex-girlfriend who, before her diagnosis, was at a party where everyone was buying Adderall to party. She chipped in, only to find out she'd just paid 20€ to take a nap instead of go party crazy like her friends. Just like, "well, poo poo."

Please don't take Adderall if you don't have ADHD. People doing that are part of the reason why there's a major Adderall shortage in America right now that's making it close to impossible for people like me who actually have ADHD to get the medication we need just to function day-to-day.Inceltown posted:How much Adderall were you getting for that 20? That's like whole bottle of the stuff price. I don't know where the gently caress you live but here in the US Adderall is like $300 for a bottle of 30 pills.

Generic amphetamine salts are like $30 for a months prescription with cut rate insurance. $10 a pill on a college campus or the street sounds about right.

I don't know, this was an event from before we dated, that she told me about. I have never taken ADHD meds without a prescription (and i happen to not even really get much out of Adderall, i do better on ritalin...)

And they probably wouldn't let him in wearing in his slutty lingerie anyway. "Date night", I think it's fantastic that you and your wife have found a way for you to be truly yourself, even if only for a little while. More power to you. (Or rather, more power taken away from you, if that's the dynamic.)

It's almost the platonic ideal of what I imagine this thread is "for" (not that I don't love the crazier stuff too)
