Someone call the “alpha male” influencers and tell them to pack up because scientific evidence shows ancient women were hunters just as much as men.

And, as a bonus, estrogen makes you better at endurance and gives a bunch of other athletic advantages.

SUMMARY: Over 500 people reportedly died in a Gaza hospital explosion. The IDF denied responsibility, accusing the Islamic Jihad group for the strike. Protests erupted in the West Bank, with widespread distress due to limited water and trapped civilians. Meanwhile, US President Biden is set to visit Israel amid the crisis, aiming to support and contain the war with Hamas. Back in the U.S, Jordan fails to secure the House Speaker role in the first vote, sparking a call for a second vote.

Windows 11 has a bunch of weird UI bugs like this. It still feels very beta quality even though it's been out for 2 years. Not sure this is being managed well...

Harsh condemnation of the attack on a hospital in Gaza also being issued by Iran, Jordan and Turkey. There is no on-the-record reaction yet from officials in Israel to Hamas officials saying the explosion was caused by a direct hit from an Israeli airstrike.

- At first "they didn't know what happened"
- Then, they said "we had warned but they didn't evacuate"
- Now, "it isn't us, it's Hamas".

War criminals, murderers, fascists.
