    This is the 20s, and people make up random shit that spreads like wildfire every fucking day.

        The only reason I’m sad that Biden dropped out of the presidential race, is I was enjoying my joke that it’s the roaring 20s…and by that, I mean we got 2 dinosaurs running for office!

        And then I’d do a T-Rex roar.

        But now the joke doesn’t work, because Harris isn’t an AARP member. So she can’t roar like a dinosaur.

    Remember when people thought it was the lack of access to information that made people believe in made-up nonsense? Yeah… it was not.

      History books teach the famous quotes that important historical figures have said.

      And that certainly will be in the future history books, provided the republicans don’t cut ALL funding from education and burn the books first.

    I’ve recently been to the Knosso Palace, in Greece, and it’s littered with creative rebuilding based on hyped up hypothesis about stuff like “here they probably had rituals”, “here they had advanced undreground pools for purification”, and A LOT of the experience is wasted on clarifying that what you are looking at is fake and wrong.

    Also asbestos on the site.

    They call velociraptors turkeys in Jurassic Park. The actual paleontologist in the movie gives an accurate description. The “velociraptors” we later see are actually misidentified utahraptors.
