The Mighty Nein: Episode 1 - Mote of Possibility - Lemmy.World
This is my favorite of Critical Role’s campaigns and the first episode of their animated show, based on the campaign, suggests it’s going to be much more serious and less comedic than The Legend of Vox Machina. It’s amazing. I heartily encourage people to watch it!

Predicting political beliefs with polygenic scores for cognitive performance and educational attainment
Predicting political beliefs with polygenic scores for cognitive performance and educational attainment - Lemmy.World
Abstract Intelligence is correlated with a range of left-wing and liberal political beliefs. This may suggest intelligence directly alters our political views. Alternatively, the association may be confounded or mediated by socioeconomic and environmental factors. We studied the effect of intelligence within a sample of over 300 biological and adoptive families, using both measured IQ and polygenic scores for cognitive performance and educational attainment. We found both IQ and polygenic scores significantly predicted all six of our political scales. Polygenic scores predicted social liberalism and lower authoritarianism, within-families. Intelligence was able to significantly predict social liberalism and lower authoritarianism, within families, even after controlling for socioeconomic variables. Our findings may provide the strongest causal inference to date of intelligence directly affecting political beliefs.
My comment was banned from Lemmy and there is no way to appeal the verdict. I hate to say it; but this is worse than Reddit.

I left Reddit in large part because its mod policies had become a shambles. Now, I’m finding Lemmy’s aren’t much better. There’s no information about why a comment was deleted, and I assume it tracks to show an account was banned. This is garbage. Consider my lease on social media in general on hold.
Your animus and anima are fucking. Who's on top?
Is there an instance for Democratic Socialists rather than Communists?
Is there an instance for Democratic Socialists rather than Communists? - Lemmy.World
I fled Reddit due to the authoritarian mod craziness, but Lemmy.world seems infested with too much Communist craziness. I’m leftist, but communism is idiocy. Is there an instance that leans more democratic socialist but refrains from going off the deep end?
