It’s officially Thanksgiving in the USA

Time to smell the gravy, marvel at your auntie’s pretty place-settings, and listen to the 5edgy9me once-a-year intellectuals crawling out of their local Starbucks like zombies from the damn grave, moaning

@sixpenceee has already joined in the festivities of hilariously bad revisionist history with this little gem:

‘Cept Christopher Columbus never actually set foot on American soil – And Thanksgiving has nothing to do with him.

Thanksgiving in the USA was officially adopted as a holiday during the Civil War, though it had been off-again-on-again celebrated since 1621 – This is thought to be the famous ‘Pilgrims at Plymouth’ Thanksgiving.

Originally, it was celebrated because of a particularly successful harvest was managed less than a year after the Pilgrims first settled the Plymouth colony with the few surviving members of the journey from Europe. This sort of feast wouldn’t happen again until a bountiful rainfall broke a treacherous drought in 1623.

Only one or two other colonies celebrated similar days of thanks, and all of them were related to farming practices. Natives frequently attended these meals. Indeed, the first Thanksgiving saw about 90 Natives join in on the festivities.

That might not sound like a lot initially, but keep in mind that there were only 50 Pilgrims there, so the feast was almost 2:1 Native.

Now, with respect to ‘Genocide’, lemme learn you some knowledge..

Claims of Native genocide by the Pilgrims mostly originate from happenings during the 1637 Pequot War – Also known as the Mystic Massacre.

Essentially, in the area the Plymouth Pilgrims had settled, there were a few major warring Native bands. Specifically, the Pequot, the Mohegan, the Narragansett, the Wampanoag, and the Algonquians.

Basically, the Pequot sucked. They were the most powerful tribe, and were constantly trying to expand their territory – Even before the Pilgrims had come. They regularly raided the Wampanoag and the Algonquians, and bullied the Mohegan and Narragansett. When the fur trade started up, they tried to scare all the other tribes out of competition.

This led pretty much all of the tribes in the area, with emphasis of the Mohegan and Narragansett, to ally with the Pilgrims when shit started to go down.

The Pequot seemed to have the least resistance to the foreign bacteria the Pilgrims brought in, and it weakened them a lot, leaving the other tribes and Pilgrims the ability to reclaim or take over a lot of their land.

About 700 Pequot died during the war. A great deal of them were also taken/given to the other tribes as slaves.

A great deal of the bullshittery surrounding the settlement and colonization of North America comes from people who are unwilling to admit that Natives were brutal with each other… That they were just these awesome, no-socialist hippies that just sang songs and ate berries all day.

I don’t just think that’s dishonest, I think it’s pretty derogatory.

I remember vividly a time I was on a long busride in my home of British Columbia, which has a very high Native population. I was seated next to an Aboriginal man from a Kwakwaka'wakw band and he told me, very proudly, about his tribe’s impressive archive of ancient weave records depicting a great victory over neighboring tribes leaving 600,000 of them killed by the Kwakwaka'wakw warriors, who were greatly outnumbered. I would find out later that Kwakwaka'wakw were known headhunters and cannibals.

Once again, Thanksgiving was celebrated very sporadically, and certainly not as a consistent holiday, until the Civil War.

Thanksgiving never had anything to do with the Natives, other than their participation in a mutually-beneficial relationship with people who genuinely appreciated their help, and thus were willing to share what little food they had with them. It was about farming and harvesting, and later about peace and reconciliation.

We here in Canada celebrated Thanksgiving back in October, but I’ve always liked the story of American Thanksgiving better. To me, all of it’s incarnations have represented unity in one way or another – Different people working together to make everyone’s life better. Whether that be the Natives and the Pilgrims, or the Northern and Southern States.

People just being good to each other, if only for a little bit.

(Oneida Indian Nation has participated in the Macy’s Parade every year since 2010 in what they call ‘The True Spirit of Thanksgiving’)

Happy Thanksgiving, guys!

People please stop reblogging that post about that person who got ~fired~ after “working on akali for 9 months” it’s a straight up lie. Check out the real people behind the video, a french studio named Fortiche. Nothing in that post adds up. A lot of fortiche members actually have instagrams with the actual process, it was a contract so riot games had no one to “fire” since it wasn’t an in house job, and even if there was nobody would fire a person who could work ON THEIR OWN on a project like that (which is impossible btw.)

Please think before you reblog shit like that, it discredits every people fighting against exploitation in the video game industry. Just… stop. Inform yourselves.

Wha aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh? Tumblr believing everything without doing any sort of research before spreading misinformation? Naaaah that doesn’t happen.

I saw this on twitter last night (here’s my reply to it https://twitter.com/Tacogoats/status/1062851272783618052 )

From what I read on twitter the person in question had worked on the REWORK (her abilities and such specifically?); not the skin design.

Now I still don’t see more on the *why* this person was fired but some people are linking me articles that companies will work people really hard then just fire them. However I still don’t know 100% if that’s the case; it’s radio silent.

After being on the internet for so long I very much like to see facts/proof upfront before I hop on things. Someone said the person who got fired leaked the rework - maybe that is what got them fired. Maybe Riot (…unsurprisingly, again I really do not think highly of them they’re utter garbage…) actually did fire them after working them really hard, for no good reason. Just to use them. But maybe there was more to it? We don’t know.

Firing someone just fucking sucks regardless…

callsigndreadfrost

Checked out the thread on Twitter. I find the entire thing highly suspicious. We can’t all have our fingers in everything happening with all of our favorite media but usually, and yes I am very aware this happens everywhere, but Tumblr has a reputation of spreading a lot of loaded lies with the intent to further tarnish someone’s reputation especially if it’s a “hive mind” or “band wagon” situation as is often the case in this hellsite.

I’m in no way defending or playing devil’s advocate for Riot. It’s a shit company from what I’ve read and seen. But if this person did leak information then being fired is a bit of an extreme but it was totally their fault. Companies have been cracking down hard on leaks since it’s been a frequent thing for the last few years.

What I would like to know is where is this person and why did they deactivate? If they hadn’t lied then why deactivate?

I think people are more willing to believe it because it’s Riot, and they have a kind of weird history among people. Granted, I know none of it, aside from the shit I find around the net (largely ‘cause I don’t play League), but it’s akin to people believing any shitty thing you say Konami or EA has done because they’ve probably done worse in the past.

These are two real human beings with wives and children (one of which has expressed extreme discomfort with fangirls being creepy/sexual around him) and I have to scroll down my dash to a tracked tag and see people shipping them.

This is why people have such a terrible image of the SPN fandom.
