I handed my girlfriend a hair tie once while at my parents house. Good times were had.

It’s why society sucks. The people who could change things for the better don’t. They could make things better or just retire. Instead they make things awful.

Leaking a same\specific lie over and over to keep tabs on the leak trails seems far more likely than Fermi winning the dice roll on this.

Those who do or do not study history are dinked to repeat it. That’s the issue. We study history, then send the military to Afghanistan. We aren’t learning anything from history that is actually useful.

Kids crusaded against date memorization, and that worked. So now we know the minutemen at Lexington and Concord, the bill of rights, all these wars, we know they happened. Great Lincoln saved the union. But none of that matters. It has actually no effect on people meeting any kind of important decisions.

What we need to learn is the effects history has had on people. Like, clearly America went to war in WW1 to stop the war, and in WW2 to do something, and America’s actions in WW2 are justified and all, but every single person who got shot in WW2 had a really bad time. Wars are to often taught from the end, America beat the Sioux, or the Mexicans, to form states out of their land and the we are looking at those states and they’re nice places now. But every war has it’s losers, they’re the ones who get shot. They’re the perspective we never get taught. Even a short war like the Bismarck German unification gets the facts taught but skips on the pain. But people get shot and it really really sucks.

It should only be with a heavy heart that we go to war, because even a just war will be nothing but awful and everyone should know that.
