"If Male Athletes Can Run Fast, Female Athletes Can Run Far via McGill Office for Science and Society (OSS)
'In most sports, there is a gap in performance between male and female athletes. Ultrarunning may be the exception.'"

The study is locked I vouch for the fact many run a LOT faster and further than this mere male can

Hhmmmm, maybe the are trying to escape from the mere male?

With any luck, it may solve/eradicate a lot of problems.

Nothing "girly" about baking. Best bread I've ever eaten is the stuff I bake myself, and I know what's in it. No machine though, proper kneading. Something cathartic about it.

Kneading dough also gets your hands nice and clean after working on Land Rovers!

Psst want to buy a cheap handbag? Rippoffs might be fine if they are actually cheap for Cheap .........

Happily I know most fish I buy and luckily catch more than I buy.

"More than 10 per cent of the seafood sold in Australia is not what's on the label and threatened species sometimes wind up on the plate, DNA tests suggest.
The national study, by the Minderoo Foundation, has exposed a serious problem with labelling and species substitution.
Researchers who DNA tested 672 seafood products sold at Australian supermarkets, fish markets and restaurants found 11.8 per cent didn't match what was on the label.
Shark and snapper species, and imported seafood, were most likely to be incorrectly labelled.
In Tasmania, a supermarket that purported to be selling imported stingray was actually selling critically endangered spotback skate from South America.
At a restaurant in Western Australia, something generically labelled as shark was actually a piece of smooth hammerhead, a species classed as vulnerable globally."

In the early eighties I worked for a fish wholesaler. A popular one was caught off New Zealand by Russian trawlers, preped in NZ then air freighted to Australia packed in ice but not frozen. It was then sold in fish and chip shops under at least 6 different names. Speaking to shop owners they said it was common for people to have their favourites and not like others. All being the same fish from the same box

This is interesting mix of fact, Fiction and some OMG bits



"The film's star Jim Caviezel has previously endorsed elements of the QAnon theory — namely that trafficked children are being drained of their blood.In 2021, Caviezel made an appearance at the Health and Freedom Conference in order to promote Sound Of Freedom.
Caviezel used his virtual talk to warn listeners that trafficked children are also the victims of "adrenochroming"."


What is Sound Of Freedom about? The controversial anti-sex trafficking film is storming the US box office - ABC News

Dopey me had to google "adrenochroming" Perfect fodder for this thread! "The QAnon claim that Hollywood and political elites harvest adrenochrome from children's blood"

Fact check: QAnon's adrenochrome conspiracy theory is baseless

The issues with the film are serious and real. Shame that it is mixed up with some really wacky stuff. I may go and watch it
