Controversial Truths About Ancient Egypt Masterpost
The pyramids were built by contemporary workers who received wages and were fed and taken care of during construction
The Dendera “lightbulb” is a representation of the creation myth and has nothing to do with electricity
We didn’t find “““copper wiring””” in the great pyramid either
Hatshepsut wasn’t transgender
The gods didn’t actually have animal heads
Hieroglyphs aren’t mysteriously magical; they’re just a language (seriously we have shopping lists and work rosters and even ancient erotica)
The ancient Egyptian ethnicity wasn’t homogeneous
Noses (and ears, and arms) broke off statues and reliefs for a variety of reasons, none of which are “there is a widespread archaeological conspiracy to hide the Egyptian ethnicity”
The carvings at Abydos aren’t modern machines but recarvings over old carvings. Sure they look like them but if you can read hieroglyphs and know that Ramesses II will even usurp the carvings of his own father just to be a little shit
‘No soot on the ceilings and walls of the Dendera temple!’ is actually because of extensive restoration works and not because Egyptians were in on shit like Baghdad “batteries”
While the Egyptians were fine-ass astronomers they didn’t align any of their enormous and/or important buildings to modern star constellations, because constellations look very different now than they did ~5000 years ago
The pyramid is the simplest, sturdiest shape with which to build and many different cultures discovered this in their own time. There were never any weird fish humans/aliens involved
The sphinx of Gizah is only an approximate 5000 years old; the 10,000 year/rain erosion nonsense is proven hokum
Speaking of that particular sphinx, the Napoleonic expedition is not responsible for its missing nose
Akhenaten was not a “heretic” by contemporary standards
Ramses II appropriated a lot of his predecessors’ buildings/reliefs and isn’t really deserving of the epithet “the Great”
The Battle of Kadesh ended in a stalemate (twice)
While they had feline deities throughout their history, Egyptians didn’t actually worship cats themselves. This was a later Greek/Ptolemaeic addition
It was not, in fact, practice to shave off eyebrows after cats died; Herodotus lied about that
Herodotus lied about a lot of things and many misconceptions about ancient Egypt can be traced back to his Greek ass
I can’t believe I forgot my favourite Hill to Die On
Seth was not the god of “evil”, and despite his chaos providing a foil to order, he wasn’t completely villified until very late in Egyptian history, when he became associated with despised foreign enemies
Hats off to the few of you who’re reblogging this with tags saying you’re going to check my claims later. You make me not entirely despair of this hellhole.
Here are some vetted Egyptological books/sources (that are by and large appropriate for a lay-audience) you can find most, if not all of the above:
Lehner, M., The Complete Pyramids
Wilkinson, R. H., The Complete Temples of Ancient Egypt
Hornung, E., The One and the Many: Conceptions of God in Ancient Egypt
Dunand, F. & Zivie-Coche, C., Gods and Men in Egypt
Kemp, B., Ancient Egypt: Anatomy of a Civilization
Bard, K., An Introduction to the Archaeology of Ancient Egypt
Stevenson Smith, W., The Art and Architecture of Ancient Egypt
Kitchen, K. A., The Life and Times of Ramesses II, King of Egypt
Sweeney, D., Sex and Gender (in Ancient Egypt)
McDowell, A. G., Village Life in Ancient Egypt: Laundry Lists and Love Songs
Te Velde, H., Seth, God of Confusion
Guys do me a solid and reblog this version instead of continuously asking for sources on the other versions thanks
Excuse me please post ancient erotica link
hey it’s not my fault people keep reblogging the version without it!
Current twitter drama is Europeans confidently declaring that they don't need to drive or use overpriced public transport to get to the MetLife stadium for the World Cup; they will simply walk down the highway to get there. Girl it's New Jersey. They're gonna splatter you for fun.
If you manage to get on the turnpike before the cops stop you, a soccer mom is gonna do the Jersey slide in a RAV4 and turn your entire group into a wet speedbump
this? you want to walk down this????
please say sike
IT'S NOT A FUCKING STREET ITS AN 8-LANE SUPERHIGHWAY THAT GOES OVER A SWAMP
footpath
I don't know what ANY of this is about, but I promise you there will be people walking. And if cars run people over, all the open containers of alcohol they'll be carrying will suddenly become molotovs. Our love of having a good time only just barely supercedes our hatred of stupid ass American cars and their drivers. Have you ever seen rally racing? We stand mere meters away from cars racing through highly concentrated areas, "protected" by nothing more than a yellow tape. We laugh in the face of death. And when a driver crashes and does a barrel roll over our rally picnic, we flip the hotdogs on the grill and open another beer.
Americans don't understand hooliganism. People regularly die and murder over soccer, it's just a fact of life. People will walk on the highway.
"I'm just gonna run them over" Do you think these guys give a shit
Do you think these things give a shit? They don't. They are incapable of doing so, because they are not people, they are fifteen tonnes of cargo traveling at speeds of 140km/h. They physically cannot stop in time, and a hundred fleshy bodies isn't enough to do more than slow them down, and that's with the truckers braking in a panic as they attempt not to jackknife into causing a 15-car pileup.
I'm resigned to the fact that most of this is just ragebait but oh my god. Hooligans are not going to win against the eighteen-wheelers!

I think a lot of Europeans think that the stadium is in the middle of a city and surrounded by infrastructure, which is why they keep insisting that they can just walk from point A to point B. It's not! It's in the fucking Meadowlands!!!! You have multi lane highways and a literal toxic swamp and that's it!
"Well if there are a LOT of football fans they'll stop for us!"
There's a video online of a trucker who accidentally hits a flock of sheep in the middle of the highway at full speed and splatters them. Has to turn the windshield wipers on to wipe away the blood. This is what every Jersey driver yearns to do once they get on the turnpike.
girl help they're now demanding NJ build a bridge over the highway (???? from where???) or shut down the fucking I-95 (one of the busiest highways in the country that everyone commutes on) for their little soccer game.
I live close enough to the Meadowlands to regularly curse the hubris of the American Dream mall and this is the funniest shit I have read in YEARS. A lot of the European twitter people seem to think we are DEFENDING the Meadowlands and the general layout of the area like we think it was good urban planning. Girl no! It is a shithole, we know it is a shithole! (Although the actual swamp is kinda pretty from the window of a train heading to Secaucus Junction.) We are not trying to express pride, we are trying to save your life!!!!
I MEAN. I know people talk a lot of shit about American arrogance and they're not wrong to do so, but look at this, my fucking god.
._. Let them perish
Whats funny is they think ppl are defending the infrastructure. Like...no bitch we know it's ass. We are telling you it LITERALLY can't be done
Right like, no no. We KNOW it is horrible. We KNOW it should not exist like that. MetLife stadium shouldn't have been built in a swamp like that. Everything about its existence is bullshit. This is probably the WORST stadium to try and get to, considering that it is illegal to try and walk there.
FIFA has also intentionally MADE it worse. Because they're closing the parking lot. They're also preventing ride shares from what I can tell??
Meanwhile the governor of New Jersey is saying this is going to cost NJ $48 million to deal with the ridership, and wanted money to offset that, which FIFA doesn't ever do. So they decided to massively inflate train fares to offset the cost.
Again, while trying to prevent rideshare services from occurring.
Oh, ALSO people in New Jersey and New York City are all being told to "work from home" on days of the world cup matches because the public transit congestion is expected to be that bad, coincides with rush hour, and because for some of it, they're full closing off public transit to anyone who doesn't have FIFA tickets.
And then there are people complaining about our "shitty national stadium" and I don't even know how to begin to explain that MetLife isn't even the biggest capacity stadium in the US. It's not even in the top ten. (It is #15).
I genuinely do hope everyone is just being a bit of a troll when they say they're going to walk on the 95 or some shit because people will 1000% die. I don't even know what a comparable metaphor for this is.
But you cannot just shut this road down:
I'm reblogging again because I was about to get heated in the replies. So to the person who said, some version of "why didn't the host cities build sidewalks? They fucked up."
1) nfrastructure is hard. Like really hard. It's loud, it's expensive (so fucking expensive) and very disruptive to traffic.
2) it's a fucking highway. One of the busiest. It's a really busy section of highway because it has a huge amount of commuters. Do you have any idea how many traffic disruptions that would cause. It would literally months to years of traffic disruptions on one of the biggest highways in the country. It's a direct line into New York City. We have a hard enough time filling potholes and you want us building sidewalks
2) it's so expensive. You don't understand. Because building materials are expensive and you need a lot of them. Then you gotta get people to actually build the things. Depending on on where you source workers, they are probably unionized. Don't get me wrong that's a good thing, but it does balloon the cost. Then you gotta pay people (most likely cops) to guard the projects because it's on a fucking highway and as someone who learned to drive in New Jersey, trust me it's dangerous. Also the cops guarding the sites are definitely unionized and again see above for ballooning costs.
3) the cities did not fuck up. First off, I-95 is owned by the respective state governments so if anything New Jersey and New York fucked up. They didn't, see above. MetLife stadium is in east Rutherford. East Rutherford's total 2025 budget was $32.908.690.24. which seems like a lot until you consider that New York City's 2025 budget was $3.8 billion. That's literally 251.5151 times the budget.
4) FIFA said it would help with the costs and then pulled out of the deal.
Source: I have lived in Jersey and work in government (the people who build the infrastructure)
TLDR: asking New Jersey / East rutherford to build sidewalks on I-95 is like asking NASA to land on the moon in the next six months, with no prep.

This is the best one
(in case anyone needs context, since i know there's a bunch of younguns who didn't even know the "It's gonna be May" meme... The song playing is NSync's song "It's Gonna Be Me", the guy in the mint green t-shirt is NSync member Lance Bass, and the guy in the pink hoodie is his husband Michael.)
I need to you all to know that the original caption for this is : “POV your friend mispronounces a word once and now it’s a national holiday.”
big fan of whatever the youth is doing to torment scientology buildings
the aroace read of ryland grace is so personal and haunting. "you don't even have a dog." was it not enough to love the world for the sake of living in it. was it not enough to live for the thrill of discovery. was it not enough to smile at your students. was it not enough to be afraid.
@seesfunbucks you can't leave this in the tags
oh my god
That was timed so well oh my god
i was honestly unaware this needed doing but you totally did it, zacharyschofield9

Christina Koch (Mission Specialist), Artemis II - April 6th 2026
Oh how they grow up……
I wonder if Neil’s owner/s know about how we celebrate the date of that photo
Neil himself is long gone from this world, and yet every April 13th this group of internet strangers come together to celebrate him and his act of banging out the tunes. Like an entire holiday, all for this little guy
Cause I think it’s pretty beautiful if you wanna get all sentimental and sappy
good news :)
The story goes something like this: On Thursday, April 13, 2006, Neil sat down at his piano, and played some tunes. The only piece of surviv
happy neil banging out the tunes day to everyone who celebrates
ITS APRIL 13 YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS
FETCH ME NEIL
HAPPY BIG TWENTY NEIL

hey. hey, you, us american adult who has to file taxes.
that shit has to be done by wednesday. it's almost april 15.
do not panic, you got this. this is just to help make sure you got this by wednesday. wednesday, april 15. you got this.
also google your state + "state return free file" and the state's tax dept website probably has a list of services that will e-file your federal AND state returns for free if you meet the income restrictions.
(you probably do.)
fuck turbotax. there are better, still easy options not trying to nickle and dime your broke ass for this nonsense out there, and you can probably use a few of them to file fed AND state for free.
by wednesday.
wednesday, april 15. 2026.
you got this.
A new Adventure
I'm glad I was able to make a 413 tribute this year. Art block and little time were my main obstacles, but skipping this day is something I simply can not allow. Of course there's always this desire to make something grandiose and exciting, sadly I have no such opportunity (but there's always next time).
As for the idea, I was going to draw something much moodier and maybe more personal (as I often do) at first, but it didn't feel quite right. So in the end I went with a more stylized approach and a more "familiar" scenario. It was nice to try out something different, and I'm rather happy with the result (also the process was fun. Using Rebelle instead of the usual CSP helped with that a lot.)
Anyway, happy 413, everyone! (if this day can even be happy)
P.S. the title is rather ironic, but that's the point.
