Cromwell’s brand of Puritanism is also where America’s prosperity gospel hails from, in addition to the Puritans being at least partially responsible for the British leg of the Transatlantic Slave Trade if memory serves.

Also, fun fact, the Pilgrim’s trip to America was actually funded by corporations in Europe, with the understanding that the companies would provide the settlers with ships and supplies, and in exchange the puritans would build a trading settlement and send back X-amount of whatever interesting crops or materials they find/grow as a return on their investment. Again, hardly the tale of a group of honest religious folk fleeing prosperity in a new land.

Similarly, the fact that the Pilgrims moved into an area that had been left depopulated due to a pandemic that had swept the continent (meaning many found crops already planted, homes already built, and graves full of “treasure” like grave goods to steal…) doesn’t get into the narrative either.

Likewise the amount of people sent to America who were indentured servants, criminals, and random homeless people that were rounded up and sent over seas (the idea being the urban poor would be able to find a better, more profitable life growing crops for some rich plantation owner in Carolina than they would living in Southwark)… This likewise didn’t work, as they rarely had the knowledge, experience or desire to become a farmer in a land thousands of miles away, hence why many of them realised that if they just used kidnapped people to do the work instead they could make money while not doing any manual labour.

All of this is 100% true. Another example of rewriting history to make it palatable that has been taught to young children basically since public schools were founded is the Thanksgiving Day story. What we are taught: the pilgrims came to America to escape the Evil Evil Church of England, and they were starving! And winter was coming! But there was a native american named Squanto who worked hard and learned english, then introduced the pilgrims to his tribe. They all became friends and threw a big celebration feast and they lived happily ever after. The end. What really happened: Squanto had been a slave in England, was set aboard a vessel to the Americas in order to help capture more native americans and force them into slavery, but escaped when he got there. He made his way back to the village he grew up in only to find that the entire population had been wiped out by either slavers or smallpox. Since survival had a lot to do with relying on a community, when a ship full of pilgrims arrived he became friends with them - by speaking the English he was taught while a slave. He took them to the (now empty) village, and showed them how to tend the crops that were already growing. The shelter was already build. There was already stored food, and he showed them how to get more. Then he negotiated peace between the settlers and the Wampanoags. Then, yes, there was a feast to celebrate the peace. One time. With one small group of pilgrims, the Wampanoags, and Squanto. Meanwhile, the Puritans were busy coming to America in boatloads. Their entire goal was to take land and resources, capture young, healthy men and women as slaves, and kill everybody else. The second “Day of Thanksgiving” was a celebration of the massacre and capture of over 700 Pequot tribe members. All ages and genders. More were celebrated later for similar reasons. So it went until Abraham Lincoln declared Thanksgiving Day to be a national holiday, and the “official” story was spread across the US in an effort to bring people from the northern and southern states together…. on the same day he ordered the military to march against the Sioux. Womp womp.

Love At First Sight

I have no real idea what prompted this one, perhaps just carting around my own neice and a plethora of shows and fanfics with Dad-centric themes. *~*~*

Being an only child and sent straight from the isolated family seat to the Brotherhood Eli had never had experience with infants. Even when the Prince had been born he had very little to do with the heir to the throne, the Queen and her Lady maid had seen to his care and keeping to the near exclusion of all else for the first year. They had named him William for the Queen’s father.

Now though there was another babe and things had not gone nearly so well.

The princess was healthy and strong according to those that had attended the birth, it had taken far more from the Queen however and she had yet to leave her bed. John worried for his Queen but had taken on her duties in addition to his own, he had worked himself into a deep sleep tucked safely away in Eli’s chamber while the protector himself had decided on a small patrol through the halls to settle his own restlessness.

He had not planned to make his way into the royal nursery, at first wasn’t sure what had drawn him there, and then the princess cried again. It was little more than mewl, not enough to wake the nurse sleeping across the room but it had certainly gotten his attention. In the moonlight he couldn’t make out details like the babe’s eye color but he knew when she spotted him, her tiny fists coming up to wave vigorously eventually uncurling so tiny fingers could reach toward him. He reached back tentatively, surprised then the princess latched onto a finger pulling with a strength he had not expected, his own tug in response earning another rather indignant little cry. “Oh is this how it is then your grace? I do have a patrol to make.”

The Princess burbled in return tugging ineffectually at his finger once more only protesting when he attempted to retrieve his hand. After a few tries he sighed finding himself already smitten with the tiny royal loathe to upset her or rouse the nurse needlessly, “A tour of the halls then tximeleta?”

Picking up the infant Eli resumed his walk of the wing till his tiny passenger fell back to sleep knowing even as he finally untangled her hand from his own that he was wrapped around her little fingers as sure as he was loyal to her father.

He was honored months later when the King broke with tradition in naming his daughter.

He was certain Princess Elisa would prove a worthy namesake.

“Beth, I’ve missed you so much, honey. It’s been such a long time–25 years. Of course, you haven’t changed, but I have.

I’m an admiral now. Me, the ensign that said that anyone with a rank above lieutenant was a horse’s ass.”

(Beth laughs)

“Beth, you didn’t hear me, did you? Oh, Beth, tell me you can hear me.”

I know there’s a lot of like, younger teenagers that follow me so check this out, if this is your first time driving in winter, don’t just stamp on the brake pedal to stop, if you’re on ice you’ll continue to slide for quite some distance and could possibly hit something/someone

ease into it, like small pumps on the pedal. And brake earlier, like give yourself some room because even if you’re driving slow and braking correctly you’re still probably gonna slide a bit 

[tianasidhe-augurelt]

And please don’t panic if your back end starts to turn.  If you’re going slow enough, you’ll be fine.  Turn into the spin, not away.  Breathe, stay calm. If you get the chance, practice fishtail response in a big, empty parking lot.  When I was learning to drive, my dad would take me up to the church parking lot and talked me through it.  If you stay calm, it’s fun to make the car intentionally fishtail, and you’ll get a good feel for how the car will respond when you take control of the spin.

Don’t let the ice frighten you.  Be a boss on the ice!  I have faith in you~ (づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ ﾉ*･ﾟ✧*･゜ﾟ

Sephiroth Week - Day 3: Fate

In the puppetverse AU, Vincent and Hojo are still civil enough to each other to share custody of a child because Hojo never shot him. Instead, a lab baby crawled away into the basement’s other rooms, and Vincent “Babysitting Was NOT In The Assignment Briefing” Valentine came running to the rescue. And got hisself tore up real good. Lucrecia patched him up with Chaos-y goodness, and Vincent went back to Midgar to stay with Reeve, while he recuperated and let his hair grow out. To avoid a repeat of ~the monster incident~, Seph was sent with him. Lucrecia and Hojo visit every day they’re in Midgar, and (slightly older) Seph spends a week with them in Nibelheim a few times a year.
