Post Score Posted Republicans liked the exact same workplace diversity training more when it skipped buzzwords like "diversity" and "privilege" and used plain words like "differences" and "unfair advantages" instead. Same content, different labels, and they also rated it as less politically biased. 30707 7d ago 1 in 4 teenagers worldwide is not active on any day of the week and girls are falling furthest behind, a major new study finds. 18423 2d ago Six future Trump officials (Vance, Rubio, Gabbard, Hegseth, Patel, RFK Jr.) wrote books before taking office. Researchers counted 2,074 metaphors in them: about 91% were about threats, and war was the top theme by far.

One girl even had traces of a plant from the Amazon jungle. 12563 4d ago Researchers have solved the mystery behind 60-second fluctuations in global power grids: unintended synchronization from large-scale battery storage and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems performing automated power checks at the exact start of every minute. 10738 3d ago Men lose 16% more healthy years than women worldwide, yet only a handful of countries have a men's health policy.
