For many many centuries you have all had questions about all the ancient megalific structures like the pyramids in Egypt and south America and all over the globe so I will tell you the answer to the big mystery if you study the history of any of these structures you will discover that the people who built them all share an almost identical origin story about after a very large cataclysmic event a person or small group of persons came usually from the sea  who were survivors of an advanced civilization that had been wiped out by before mentioned cataclysmic event they in turn taught these primarily nomadic hunter gatherers to build farm write they laid the groundwork for all we know in our modern day civilization what about the pyramids themselves you say well its not about what they are its about what they represent they were not built by slaves they were built by the people in those lands all working and rowing in the same direction so that a very simple and eternal lesson could be taught that no single human being could ever build any of the megalific structures that have survived from antiquity but when people work together they literally accomplish greatness this is a lesson that should be as true today as it was back then but we have devolved from a single race of human beings that when you work together can accomplish so many amazing things to a society that is driven by greed and narcissism so you should look to the past for answers to today's problems but you need to know the right questions to ask of history to get the proper answers to today's issues

I endure not because it’s easy, but because I believe everything will pay off.

Everything will be fine

Refuel...

The sound all men fear

Looks cool

This thing about men supposedly thinking about the Roman Empire several times a week... 

Do we really think about it that rarely? :)

Roman Empire

Making my own history here

When I was younger, I tried to drive a car. The car was broken, and some adults were pushing it to a safe place. There were only two of them, and then they asked me, “Do you know how to drive?”
Of course I lied and said, “Of course I do.”

In my mind, I thought, It’s a broken car — what could go wrong, right? And in the end, which kid would miss an opportunity like this, right?

So I sat in the driver’s seat, adjusted it, and they started pushing the car. I drove pretty well until a part of the street.
So you may ask: what was the problem? Nothing happened, right?

The problem was that, when we were almost arriving at the place, I had to turn the car. And, as you know, a kid has tiny legs.


---

Part 2

Until that moment, I had only driven forward, without turning the car.
When we were close to a house, I had to turn right. It was a downhill street, and there was a wall at the end.
With these hints, you can already imagine what happened, right?

They were pushing the car and shouting to me, “Turn right!”
I tried, but it was really hard. The steering wheel was heavy, and I was too small even to see the street through the windshield.
As soon as I turned, the car started going faster and faster.


---

Part 3

They shouted to me, “Press the brake!”
But as I told you before, a kid has tiny legs.
I couldn’t press the brake, and the car kept going fast.

Everything happened so fast in my mind, even though not even a minute had passed.

So what do you think happened at the end of this story?
I’m alive, so you already know.

They managed to stop the car from the front, and then my mom came to see who was driving.
She saw it was me — let’s skip that part.

If I had told that man I didn’t know how to drive, none of this would have happened.
So… sorry for that. 😓

Kids don't drive

Most of us were taught that Thanksgiving started with a peaceful dinner between the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag.
That story is incomplete and hides the truth.

By the time that 1621 meal happened, Native communities had already been devastated by European disease. The “peace” was a survival alliance—not friendship. And what followed was not peace.

Within decades:

Treaties were broken

Land was stolen

Entire Native villages were burned

Men, women, and children were killed

Survivors were sold into slavery


Events like the Pequot War and King Philip’s War wiped out entire tribes. By modern definition, this was genocide.

The friendly “Thanksgiving” story was later created to make colonization look peaceful and to erase the truth of what really happened.

Today, many Native people observe a National Day of Mourning—not celebration.

We can enjoy family and food, but we should also know the truth.
History doesn’t change because it makes us uncomfortable—but we grow when we face it.
