Holy fuck. They will be walking next.
Pffft, big deal. They have oodles of ancient skeletons sitting upright in the US. It’s called Congress!! Heyooooooooo!
It would be funny if it wasn’t the truth.

Found near the Josephine Baker school.
For the Americans who weren’t taught their own history.
TBF it seems most of her history in the US was in entertainment and wearing a skirt made of fake bananas. Not really required learning. Her real activity seems to have taken place in France working with the French Resistance and civil rights, and unfortunately her civil rights work here was overshadowed by MLK.
Not . . . sure that’s how history works tho

Wow, she was an amazing person. Thank you for drawing attention to our deficit
Glad to see the youth getting involved with science…
Children at a primary school in eastern France found a strange attraction next to their playground this week: a skeleton sitting upright, peeking out of a circular pit.
Call off Scoob and the gang, we found our suspects!

The Egyptians had no word for dying, they just said “going West”.
Not sure how true that is, but i remember it for whatever reason.
Given that most/many ancient cultures had a good handle on astronomy, it would make sense if they associated west with death. Since the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, it makes some logical sense to associate the east with beginnings of things and the west with endings
