Skin tone was a evolutionary trait.

White = Cold Climates
Asian = Slightly Warmer Climate
Mexican = Warm Climates
Black = Hot Climates

Don't quote me, I think that is what it is.

Not sure if scientific data backs that up.

Not quite right

So it is partially right?

I basically came to that conclusion based off observation by looking at the map.

I think'd be more about UV radiation than anything else. If heat were the issue, then darker skin would be in warmer areas

Ah.... I see.

If humans lived in a extreme hot climate, they would adapt through skin tone.

If they lived in extreme cold climates, they would adapt through skin tone.

Bet you if we lived in extreme climates, we would give rise to a new race.

i'd say it depends on how extreme, among other factors

there is also the necessity for some form of natural selection

if desirable traits are not sorted through long processes then no cohesive move towards a new race can occur

Is it just me, or is it weird when people refer to companies as "it" instead of "they"?

I wonder what kind of race would arise from a extreme climate.

Companies are considered entities aka individuals.

For some reason.

"it" refers to the incorporated business methinks

sure, but the companies don't make "it" decisions

they make _their_ decisions.

idunno, it seems weird.

I hope science gets to the point where they could create a Neko race that is compatible with the human race.

Creating a equal intelligent race that could co-exist with humans.

Like fantasy world.

> compatible
giggity

There is already such a race, it's just taboo to explore the... compatibility.

If races are not compatible, how could they co-exist?

why cats though

I am talking about anime style nekos.

The cat women and men.

Yes, we know you're talking about catgirls

Yeah.

Also like to see elves.

^_^

ayy spectre's back

aren't those just people with pointy ears?

@Hoenn_Otaku "Umber" hmmmm?

Life span would be the big difference.

~~I also had a group where the super soldiers were green cat people just for the fun of it~~

No, they're midgets who like to make gifts for no good reason whatsoever

skip this whole neko bullshit

gimmie full blown monster girls

Of course if we can create elves, we would be able to extend human's life expediency.

@Hoenn_Otaku "Umber" Ohh, thought you were referring to the family of computer hardware vulnerabilities targeting speculative execution, collectively known as "spectre".

Maybe dwarves.

~~I still have pictures of Mu as a green cat man~~

oh, no, lmao

i meant the user

I wouldn't be adverse to creating wide variety of races that could form their own cultures.

It would make the world more lively.

Shapeshifters

Polymorphs

Anyways I just brushed my teeth, I just needed to come back and tell you about the green cat boys before I left since you were talking about nekos anyways

Would you guys be okay with scientists creating new races to co-exist with humans and form their own cultures.

?

_Dusty's Eugenics Parlor_

why new cultures??

@Dusty Morgan been There, done that, named it the “Bruised Universe”

wouldn't that just create more problems for trying to integrate new people?

I can talk about it later, good night

this chat escalated quickly

If humans created them, they would already be intergrated into our culture.

@Dusty Morgan why don't you make the recurrent laryngeal nerve non-recurrent first.

It isn't like they independently evolved outside our society.

It would just mean they look different, but share the same culture.

Overtime they would develop their own culture and maybe create their own inventions.

In United States, they would have equal treatment.

subculture, you mean

Due to constitution applying to all citizens of the nation.

Yeah subculture.

Typically when it comes to fantasy, I don't wish that stuff to ever be true. Granted that's because, as a child, I realized I was extremely introverted and turned my fantasy world into a hell so I would appreciate the real world more.

The new races would automatically get citizenship to United States.

As long as they are born within United States.

I can't say much about other nations.

Most of the developing nations might develop their own versions of races.

still see problems with that

perhaps these new people claim some form of superiority or oppressed status, and become separtists

we still have problems today with race

That all depends on how they are treated.

IF they are treated with same respect as humans.

They will probably live like we do.

Without any tensions.

Yeah at first, people would be wary, but overtime it will become a common thing.

then the superiority possibility still stands

Making sure they can breed with humans makes it easier to co-exist.

they claim superiority, and may actually be superior, and then demand special status for it

omfg are you guys talking about computers like they are going to rise up and take over

no, genetically engineered humanoids

I think that would be less likely if they are raised in a culture that believes in equal rights for all.

ahh okay fair enough i guess

Depends on the type of culture they are raised in.

thats atleast acceptable-ish

They already have, seen the NPCs?

Arrogant people would think they are superior yes, but culture and society would counter act that.

i'd guess

They would be individuals instead of collective.

The individual that claims superiority would probably get a lot of pushback.

a bit optimistic. we don't know if such methods would work in modern age

As long as there is not tensions between races.

if a superior engineered human had in contrast to humans yet a even larger frontal lobe where sympathy and reasoning comes in, they would more then likely out-human us morally

so it wouldnt be much a problem

then you'd end up with all the highest places in society held by the new engineered people

As long as it in positive traits...

"da joos" 2.0

you underestimate human stupidity

If we create new races, we should offer people the chance to select new traits as well.

Humans should be able to augmentation themselves in return too.

Anyways I am going to head to bed, I am super tired.

Nice talking to you guys.

cya dusty

But think about it, would you guys like to see one or two new races?

A one yard dash

Nah

Different species, sure

Different races? What's the point

part of me would like top see it but I just don't think it is practical

Unless they have superpowers

Then we can enslave them and use them

at that point why not just use robots? far more ethical

Cos robots need to be powered

and humans fed

Wheat is cheaper than batteries

a healthy human needs more than wheat

unless you want a malnourished superhuman slave

Depends on their abilities

and, since we're talking sci-fi here, it's not unreasonable to assume we have a much more efficient power source than modern day

Oh yea... treat the first lady as a sex object

Wew

Big OOF

Hmmm... can I say that I don't get why american education is systematically racist af? It's horrifying.

Remember that sign at one of the protests saying "rape melania"

Hypocrites I tell you

People of the regressive left considers anyone but them to be subhumans that doesn't deserve to live.

Repubs were condescending before, but in a well meaning way

Im talking christians who go "ill pray for you"

Wha?

It may sound condescending, but they mean well for you

Not a fan either

Oh.... eh... republicans aren't all saints tho

Then again same for every demographic out there

Tbh the phrase I'll pray for you is just a weird thing to say

Which is why people are sometimes taken aback for it

And... I think the bible also had a phrase in there.

If your enemy is thirsty give him a drink

Seems to me to be straight outta hidayah soaps.

The shame will burn hotter than boiling water

Of course it wont work if its some person trying to take advantage of your mercy though

This whole Warren thing seems to reinforce how bad of an idea affirmative action is.

I missed the whole warren thing except that she took a DNA test

Like.... wtf

She ran on the platform of being a minority

Thats it

Ambiguous claims of identity giving you an advantage or disadvantage systemically is just a bad idea.

People literally have to remember the SOP against trolling. Stop feeding the trolls.

Hell actual identity giving you a leg up is bad idea regardless

SOP?

Unless you live in a monarchy

Standard operating procedures

There isn't any good standard of actual identity.

It means, what would be the default and best action when doing something

I understand what it means now that I know what the acronym stood for.

I'm really tempted to wear this MAGA hat to school tomorrow.

Being afraid to do so is why I want to.

Its rational

Just study up and vote once you can

Someone breaking the ice is important though.

Vote when you can

As in. say "you are not alone"

Its... just academic suicide

Dont bother

Although i hate people who are doing practical politics in academic grounds

I hate politics in academics

In general

Typically so do I.

Unless its polici

Political science

But when one side is enforced and the other suppressed, I think it is worth talking about.

Or history on politics

They are okay

I need to make a list of reasons for my decision that I can give.

So I'm not fumbling under pressure to explain myself.

Still dont bother if you aint gonna gain anything from it

Aye. No need to wear a MAGA hat

Ugh.

Doing that sounds so pussified.

Idk, maybe military service have made me dislike people who aren't neutral in a politically charged situation

And people will only see your intent to wear the hat to provoe

And you are dealing with people who will do their best to assume the worst of you

If anything youd just be souring the mood in the classroom

Aye

Why https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=351602838739907&id=6250307292

no i know you cause you are a fucking lying hypocrite

"Six years after the online firestorm, she's tired of talking about it."

<:koonlul:384164603237761035>

that should make things simple

"she's tired of talking about it."

If that were true, you wouldn't have done the interview.

And I wonder if she gets a fresh wave of harassment every time she whines about being harassed.

Tim should do a small video of how some on the left are liking that rap video showing a Melania look alike being a stripper in his video

The left were angry for less

If you want to wear a MAGA hat then do it. I'm left leaning libertarian according to the political compass quiz and I really see no need to say that "wearing a maga hat is asking for trouble"

"racist, homophobe, nazi, fascist"

vs

"NPC"

I commented about his use of Bess Kalb in his main line video today

Cringed a little.

what is bess kalb

Twitter user who used to harass trump until she got blocked

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/463065106889179136/501982012106735616/unknown.png

Was she the one who tried to sue

I'm not sure if she was on board with that

But she definitely built notoriety off of top responses to his tweets.

like anyone who obsessively replies to his tweets with a verified checkmark

i guess people do pay attention to them

I find the messages directly towards Melania particularly bothersome.

it seems to me to just be another troll on the internet

wait, did Tim reference this?

Not this, but referenced the person

who's now apparently a TV and Award Show writer.

haha

Go figure.

glorious

i should be surprised

And yet award shows are continuously reaching record lows

I WONDER WHY

gotta laugh

TIL a new quote. https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/231391-because-if-you-don-t-stand-up-for-the-stuff-you

Thanks, Quartering, for reading a Kotaku article that had this quote in it.

And it's damn right. Principles are hard. It means sometimes you have to defend people and actions you hate.

defending an idea is not necessarily defending all that it may entail imo

for example claiming we should respect each other

there are limitations

I mean, that's pretty blatant.

same as free speech i suppose

I've finally gotten to where I can boil the elements of my prime principle down to a simple concept: Universality.

although i do defend the right of someone to say what they feel no matter what

i just don't necessarily defend their opinion i suppose, so nevermind

I will not condemn or attempt to revoke rights from someone based on a religion

i might actually

Because I myself would not want the same done to me.

it depends on what is going on in the religion, or what they consider to be

Instead, I will focus on the standards by which I, myself, would gladly be judged.

And that is action.

for example, Muhammed supposedly had married a wife that was not even a preteen when he was around 50

and many muslims defend that

Sure. W/E.

They can.

does anyone know what was in the tweet from hulu @Timcast did reply to ? it's been deleted and bot wasn't fast enough to copy it to twitter feed 😉

yeah i just think that you can't paint a broad swath over all religion being equal or free
