This is your daily reminder that the Aztecs literally sacrificed tens of thousands of people a year in the most bloody and horrible ways you can imagine, started wars just to collect more victims, and we're also cannibals. There is no honest way to spin them as the good guys
Look at the fluffy baby! 😍
So we’ve been keeping a small (very fluffy) secret… 👀 A truly historic moment for our conservation zoo ❤️
This sounds like the opposite of a problem.
She is stalked by secret libraries.
A detective or an archaeologist. Or both. They kinda have some things in common, which are the things I like about them (well, the other things I like about them are Nancy Drew and Indiana Jones, so there's that).
if you followed your childhood dream job, what would you be right now?
My great-great-grandparents and my great-grandmother escaped from Russia just before the Bolshevik revolution. I have other relatives who were not so lucky.
share a piece of lore that connects you to history.
I got to see a baby pony at work today, so working on a Saturday hasn't been all bad.
Tbf, if I was a conquistador and I went to Mexico and I saw the human sacrifice to literal demons and the cannibalism and the other perversity and some idiot in a bat costume was pretending he had the moral high ground for defending all that, I'd probably turn into the joker, too
Uh, this means I'm both an elfmaiden and a dwarfmaiden, so idk whose side I'm on.
A sensitive girl is a FEELMAIDEN. A tall girl is an ENTMAIDEN. A short girl is a DWARFMAIDEN. A girl who talks a lot is a SPELLMAIDEN. A pale girl is an ELFMAIDEN or ELVEN. An artsy girl is a CRAFTMAIDEN. A girl who makes bread is a LOAFMAIDEN. Etc.
How do they know it's slated to attack on November? Do we have a spy on that ship?
JUST IN - A mysterious intergalactic object could potentially be a “hostile” alien spacecraft that’s slated to attack our planet in November, according to a new study by scientists — NYP
Ride the elephant to work. Keep it outside during the day. Everyone stops to look at the elephant. My employer gets more business. They should definitely hire me and give me an elephant.
What would YOU do with the elephant?
Guys, I know you've heard this from me before, but I have the most unhinged idea for a WIP ever and I love it (and yes, it has something to do with Aztec Batman, and no, it's not a Batman AU fanfic).
I'm 100% certain this is going to be so bad. It's an intriguing idea, but the history is going to be all messed up and that's honestly so annoying.
A new legend rises. AZTEC BATMAN: CLASH OF THE EMPIRES is coming to Digital 9/19.
1/15 🧵 A Protestant woman posted this: “All the verses that say Mary as Queen of Heaven?” She showed an open Bible—blank pages. I’d like to respond with care. Not to argue, but to invite us to see something deeper. Something the historic Church has always known.
So I went to the dentist for a routine appointment. Good news: My teeth are fine and I saved $271 because I have insurance now. Bad news: They took 7 x-rays and the dentist is about the same age as me, so I am old and also glow in the dark.
No joke. This stuff has sabotaged my family's farm. And the thing is, I don't care if I don't get anything from my parents. I'd rather see one of my siblings or cousins with the whole farm and get nothing than see it divided any more than it already is.
One of my controversial takes is that’s you should not spread your inheritance evenly among your children and especially if you are a farmer. This is one of the things that’s ruining family farms.
