Wikipedia is a jumping off point for research, and should not be used as a source. It is a bibliography for all of the things you should use as a source.
And, at the very least, Wikipedia isn’t prone to hallucinations and pandering to the user.
The christian family in these memes (which are absolutely all over facebook these days) genuinely do always look miserable. Who the fuck is relating to these stock mormon farm cultists. That is a couple who made love only once in pitch darkness with bags on their heads then celebrated the pregnancy with a feast of uncooked potatoes and warm tapwater. The baby seems intrigued though. Maybe only by the bottle of pills??
Could not leave this in the tags <3
These memes aren’t meant to be funny to anyone who doesn’t fit the very narrow definition of christianity used by whichever church or religious organization first generated it.
Much like the right-wing anti-communist/ant-socialist propaganda (which, incidentally, often makes communism and/or socialism sound rad as fuck), it’s meant to reassure members of a particular ingroup and reinforce their “our way is the best way” message.
This is also why evangelist groups send people to proselytize in places that might be seen as “unfriendly” to the groups message. The idea is for the evangelist to go evangelize, get a lot of rejection, and receive a lot of positive reassurance from the group. This process draws the evangelist further into the groups specific ideology, reinforcing the strength of the group as a whole.
every wikipedia editor in america right now

I did not ask to be called out like this, tumblr
As a trans woman I can confirm that they indeed found an ancient forest inside a 630ft deep sinkhole in China
cis people can reblog this but keep it on subject, please
Happy pride month everyone always remember that the sinkhole has an ecosystem large enough to house not only insects but likely several species of small birds or mammals
the peaceful wind of nature - Collab with @anasabdin - thank you so much for animation and for turning this art into life - it was a great experience to work together with you! ✨

@0hheytherebigbadwolf HELP!!
Every June this inevitably winds up back on my dash. And I appreciate that. And I will reblog it. Every time.
Hey, it’s @archerinventive, and the Pride Knights!
Oh no….. OH NO!!!
oh no, not "society as we know it", that thing that we all love and agree shouldn't change!
"Society as we know it is at risk" yay wahoo yipee hip hip hooray!
Oh noooo…. How dare they threaten me with a good time!?!?
Researchers have used Easter Island Moai replicas to show how they might have been “walked” to where they are displayed.

Finally. People need to realize aliens aren’t the answer for everything (when they use it to erase poc civilizations and how smart they were)
(via TumbleOn)
What’s really wild is that the native people literally told the Europeans “they walked” when asked how the statues were moved. The Europeans were like “lol these backwards heathens and their fairy tales guess it’s gonna always be a mystery!”
Maori told Europeans that kiore were native rats and no one believed them until DNA tests proved it
And the Iroquois told Europeans that squirels showed them how to tap maple syrup and no one believed them until they caught it on video
Oral history from various First Nations tribes in the Pacific Northwest contained stories about a massive earthquake/tsunami hitting the coast, but no one listened to them until scientists discovered physical evidence of quakes from the Cascadia fault line.
Roopkund Lake AKA “Skeleton Lake” in the Himalayas in India is eerie because it was discovered with hundreds of skeletal remains and for the life of them researchers couldn’t figure out what it was that killed them. For decades the “mystery” went unsolved.
Until they finally payed closer attention to local songs and legend that all essentially said “Yah the Goddess Nanda Devi got mad and sent huge heave stones down to kill them”. That was consistent with huge contusions found all on their neck and shoulders and the weather patterns of the area, which are prone to huge & inevitably deadly goddamn hailstones. https://www.facebook.com/atlasobscura/videos/10154065247212728/
Literally these legends were past down for over a thousand years and it still took researched 50 to “figure out” the “mystery”. 🙄
Adding to this, the Inuit communities in Nunavut KNEW where both the wrecks of the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror were literally the entire time but Europeans/white people didn’t even bother consulting them about either ship until like…last year.
“Inuit traditional knowledge was critical to the discovery of both ships, she pointed out, offering the Canadian government a powerful demonstration of what can be achieved when Inuit voices are included in the process.
In contrast, the tragic fate of the 129 men on the Franklin expedition hints at the high cost of marginalising those who best know the area and its history.
“If Inuit had been consulted 200 years ago and asked for their traditional knowledge – this is our backyard – those two wrecks would have been found, lives would have been saved. I’m confident of that,” she said. “But they believed their civilization was superior and that was their undoing.”

“Oh yeah, I heard a lot of stories about Terror, the ships, but I guess Parks Canada don’t listen to people,” Kogvik said. “They just ignore Inuit stories about the Terror ship.”
Schimnowski said the crew had also heard stories about people on the land seeing the silhouette of a masted ship at sunset.
“The community knew about this for many, many years. It’s hard for people to stop and actually listen … especially people from the South.”

Indigenous Australians have had stories about giant kangaroos and wombats for thousands of years, and European settlers just kinda assumed they were myths. Cut to more recently when evidence of megafauna was discovered, giant versions of Australian animals that died out 41 000 years ago.
Similarly, scientists have been stumped about how native Palm trees got to a valley in the middle of Australia, and it wasn’t until a few years ago that someone did DNA testing and concluded that seeds had been carried there from the north around 30 000 years ago… aaand someone pointed out that Indigenous people have had stories about gods from the north carrying the seeds to a valley in the central desert.
oh man let me tell you about Indigenous Australian myths - the framework they use (with multi-generational checking that’s unique on the planet, meaning there’s no drifting or mutation of the story, seriously they are hardcore about maintaining integrity) means that we literally have multiple first-hand accounts of life and the ecosystem before the end of the last ice age
it’s literally the oldest accurate oral history of the world.
Now consider this: most people consider the start of recorded history to be with the Sumerians and the Early Dynastic period of the Egyptians. So around 3500 BCE, or five and a half thousand years ago These highly accurate Aboriginal oral histories originate from twenty thousand years ago at least
See, this is why all of the “built by aliens” shit bugs me so much (racism, colonialism, orientalism, etc. notwithstanding)!
The actual answers and the storytelling traditions of native people and their descendants are so. Much. More. Interesting!!
This is why Pride is not just a party. It's a joyful celebration, but it's also a pointed and colourful two-finger salute to a world that stood back whilst so many of us died. And we'll never go quietly, never again.
They tried to wipe us out.
And they failed.
And we know that they failed.
We will never go back, we cannot be erased.
hey friends where is that picture of boromir with the gondor flag except its a pride flag?
Couldn’t find it so I made another because you’re right that it’s a crime and it’s definitely my duty to remedy it
This captures everything I love about being online
This reminds me of the time that I asked if anyone had resources on the history of Shinto and while nobody had book recs, turns out an actual Temple Maiden followed me on Tumblr and was down to chat.
One positive of the Internet is how it has enabled us to connect with all of the weird, obscure knowledge that’s been obsessively archived by very passionate people with very specific hyperfixations
Fidel Castro has been dead for 10 years. Raul Castro is in his 90’s.
The Cold War has been over for decades now.
We’re now several generations removed from Cuba’s communist revolution.
Going to war with Cuba at this time is a pointless, selfish, and reactionary endeavor that will achieve no strategic or economic goals. It will only serve to satisfy the vengeful spite of elderly Cuban exiles who have championed a siege that is now well into its sixth decade.
I am sick of sending off young people to die for the twisted, cruel, colonial desires of our great-grandparents.
The U.S. is now going the way of the Soviet Union: hurling lives, material, and energy into the bottomless pit of military might while its people starve in the shadow of the wealthy elite’s failed imperial ambitions.
If I wanted a giant touchscreen, I’d buy a tablet.
Give me all of the buttons and knobs any day of the week!
shes right and she should say it
Saying he “died for our sins” is preemptive victim blaming.
Also, “died” is doing a lot of work in that sentence. He was reborn in three days. At most he died for our weekend.
