Okay so yes we need to put more money into education in the US but y'all this SPECIFIC line of thinking has much less to do with public education and everything to do with the evangelical war on science. This exact “earth age” rhetoric isn’t the result of dumb people, its being taught in Christian schools and touted in evangelical churches. Evangelical lobbies help pass laws that force states to teach creationism alongside evolution. Millions are spent every year by evangelical institutions to convince partitions that science is lying to them, to force them to belive the only place they can find truth is the church. Creationism is just another facet of that and acting like it just “Americans are dumb” rather than a pointed, purposeful campaign to keep people in a what amounts to a cult, is not oy disingenuous, its dangerous
Yeah as someone who was taught the earth was 6000 years old and believed it until I was like, 22: its a cultish weird thing you get shoved into your hea from a VERY young age. We had sunday school classes about how evolution was wrong when I was growing up; and about how feminism and even egaltarianism was wrong as well. Brainwashing doesn’t skip over you based on whether or not you are “smart”.
Saying "terfs unfollow me" isnt the big statement you think it is. If you want terfs to fuck off you must have unwavering love and support for trans women, and do what you can to boost trans women's voices. And you must block every single terf you come across. The goal isnt to dunk on terfs, the goal is to uplift and create safety for trans women.
One of the prettiest moments in winter is when the sun starts to come out again in like february/march but it’s still cold but that doesn’t matter because everything feels light and fresh and you walk outside without freezing because the sunshine is warming your face and everything is starting to wake up
Man if I was faking this disorder or writing it as a story with MADD, I would REALLY get a more linear and logical “plot line” to how this all works and not one that makes me narrow my eyes and go “What the ACTUAL fuck that makes no sense”
Also we wouldn’t use names that sound so damn similar
Bitches be like “dissociative disorders aren’t real you’re faking having ‘alters’ you just want to seem edgy” bitch if I was faking I’d pick cooler people to judge my life choices at 2 in the goddamn morning
During a military campaign, Vlad the Impaler, the basis for Dracula, once pulled his troops out of a major engagement in a valley at dusk so that the sun was in their enemies’ eyes. Once they were over the hill, they set loose a bunch of rabid bats who flew away from the sun (towards the enemy) and attacked them, leading to significant infection in their ranks, and Vlad’s eventual victory. Because of how the bats appeared from where Vlad’s soldiers appeared to be at dusk, myth stated that the soldiers turned into bats at night, which is where the “Dracula can change into a bat” thing came from.
King James (the one known for revising the Bible) liked to watch women give birth. That’s where the “tradition” of women laying on their backs to give birth comes from.
Previous to that it was common for women to have chairs with holes in them and straw underneath, so they could sit on this special chair and let gravity help with the birthing process.
Spicy foods were thought to increase libido and cause children to masturbate. To prevent kids from touching themselves at night, a man named Kellogg invented the blandest combination of cereals, marketed it at kids, and called it Corn Flakes
At the Battle of Gettysburg during the American Civil War, a small group of Union soldiers had run out of ammo against a large group of the Confederate Army. In a panic, the Union soldiers sprinted at them, screaming, with only bayonets drawn. The entire Confederate Army that was present turned and ran away in fear, not knowing that they had literally no ammunition.
When the Roman Emperor Caligula went to invade Britain he stood on the coast of Gaul with his army and suddenly declared war on Neptune, God of the Sea. He had his men collect sea shells from the shore as “spoils from the Ocean”.
During the Austro-Prussian war of 1868, Liechtenstein sent over an army of 80 people, but ended up coming back with 81 people because they befriended a guy on the other side.
People refused to send art and sculptures to be displayed at the Chicago World’s Fair because of Chicago’s history with fire. They had to fireproof the Fine Arts building to get people to agree to loan them their art. A year after the fair closed most of the grounds were destroyed by fire but the Fine Arts building survived. It’s now the Museum of Science and Industry.
The carbon emissions thing from Ghenghis Khan is not the whole story. He also planted trees wherever he conquered land because he liked trees and thought they were important. He conquered enough to make an impact on the global climate.
Radu III, brother of Vlad III( Vlad the Impaler) nearly killed Mehmed II, the future Sultan of the Ottoman’s, after Mehmed invited him up to his chambers. Radu, seemingly unaware that the offer was sexual in nature, was startled when Mehmed embraced and then tried to kiss him. Radu stabbed the prince in the leg, then ran and hid in a tree. They later became lovers, and maintained a relationship for the rest of their lives
Just googled the last one because holy shit that’s magnificent and seemed to good to be true, but not only did it actually happen, but I also learned that radu was known as “radu the beautiful”
Jack Churchill, known as Mad Jack, was a British Officer during WW2. He loved hunting nazis, playing the bagpipes, and archery. He loved them so much that he did them all at the same time.
Churchill killed a nazi with a long bow in battle as well. Maybe his gun jammed, but more likely he did it because when you’re a badass you do badass shit.
He was captured multiple times and tossed in concentration camps. He escaped everytime. One of his escapes wasn’t so much an escape as just an exit. He just walked on out of there. Who the fuck going to stop him after all.
He snuck out off base one night in Italy with his claymore sword because I guess he couldn’t sleep and figured capturing 42 nazi officers with only his sword would be a good way to overcome insomnia. So he did that.
He so loved his sword that he is famous for saying no soldier is properly dressed for battle without one.
Back when Rome was still a Republic (so a democratic form of government without an emperor and the Senate was actually in charge) they had a special hill with a big special rock at the bottom.
The purpose of this was that whenever anyone tried to threaten the democracy of the Roman republic they would throw them off the hill so that their bodies would be dashed against the rock and die. This was done even to senators that tried to fuck with the citizens etc through their position.
This was both a form of punishment of course, but was also a symbolic gesture to set a clear example, that if you try and break the people’s will, the people and land itself will break you instead.
Also, because topical, the American pledge of allegiance was made as a marketing campaign to sell flags to schools. It was literally an advertising scheme, and we just went with it
The left cat is mimicking their owner and ‘petting’ the other cat (I think), because they love and trust eachother; you can tell by the slow blinks and the left cat looking away, and the right cat accepting the gesture by going about its business and not leaving.
You’re definitely right in that these cats trust each other! However cats view human pets and scritches as a type of social grooming. When grooming other cats, they usually lick. This cat isn’t trying to copy humans.
The brown cat is actually trying to ask the grey cat to play, and politely backing off when refused! Very slowly raising the paw and gently batting it down is somewhat cat body language for “I’m gonna getcha”. If grey cat had been in the mood, it might have flinched away or batted the paw back, signaling to brown cat that it’s time to play fight or chase. However grey cat didn’t respond, and brown cat respectfully left it alone to finish grooming.
Me, for the next 24 hours: This building is not physically defensible, what is the closest location that is? What is the nearest object capable of breaching a human skull? Is my outfit bite proof? Am I prepared to cope with the loss of my loved ones? Do i have the knowledge and resources to establish a self-sustaining area? Can I...
