Lots of bad stuff happening. I think we all look around at the world and can’t really believe this nightmare is reality. Lockdowns. Censorship. Stolen elections. Retribution. Fear. Panic. Violence.
I’m not a very emotional person but when I think of the attempts to silence millions of people in our fair country I’m brought to tears. This is the only reason that I become remotely political. When you strip away all of the issues – judges, tax rates, healthcare, race – all of the bullshit, you’re only left with the divine gift of free expression. Either we have it or we don’t.
The beauty of America is (was – hotspur) the belief that we can work out ideas, discuss difficult issues, fight over them, and ultimately come to conclusions that are objectively true and also moral. If all topics that the Left doesn’t favor or won’t benefit them are off limits then the compact is broken. They are attempting to achieve power by silencing their political opponents, which is just another attempt to reduce the divinity of man and subjugate him.
I always think man, the people on You-tube used to be so creative. Remember when it first started how amazing it was? Yeah…see this video? How exciting is THIS?!?!?! The first back flip on You-tube
The first video I ever sent to Merv.
I’d like to thank lauraw for introducing me to this work of art…I believe it is part of the reason Merv fell madly in love with me……….three years after I showed him the video, but really…who’s counting?
The first cat video on You-tube……and as we all know, the Internet was created for cat and dog videos…..I’m pretty sure all videos uploaded to You-tube in 2005 were filmed with a potato.
Cybergoon squad…….the very first “weird side of You-tube” video.
And last, but not least, the VERY first video uploaded to You-tube by one of the founders enjoying his time at the zoo….my guess is, this guy is probably a rich mofo.
Also, it’s entirely possible I sprained my finger picking categories. I might die. I’ll miss you all.
This is in Modern Mexico, and the majority of the ruined site was built by aztecs in the AD 1470s. It includes plentiful evidence of Aztec architecture and building techniques, as well as forensic evidence that they practiced normal Aztec religious observance in the temple area (i.e. ritual sacrifice of a living human being). But the Spanish were the bad guys, y’all.
This site is named for a tribe in the region contemporary to the estimated time of its construction. The first written reference to it calls it Daorsioiethnos Thrakon, and it sits in modern Bosnia-Herzegovina. The fort and acropolis are believed to date back to ~400-500 BC, and the site was destroyed or abandoned close to 100 years before Christ’s birth.
Not much left now, sadly, just some walls built to stand the test of time.
Recently made public, but dating to ~900 BC, this was once a temple of the “water cult” that was popular in this region of what is now Peru. What’s been found thus far matches architecture and pottery common to other such temples in nearby regions.
