this has already been mentioned on here but im thinking about the gem and etho dynamic. they've only really gotten closer this season and gem just beats the shit out of him as she pleases. he logged on, got into a punch fight with her, and logged out when he started losing. and then theres mumbo who has been on the same server as etho for 8 years now (almost 9) and is self-admittedly afraid of him. it makes me giggle

Native Tribe To Get Back Land 160 Years After Largest Mass Hanging In US History

Golden prairies and winding rivers of a Minnesota state park also hold the secret burial sites of Dakota people who died as the United States failed to fulfill treaties with Native Americans more than a century ago. Now their descendants are getting the land back.
The state is taking the rare step of transferring the park with a fraught history back to a Dakota tribe, trying to make amends for events that led to a war and the largest mass hanging in US history.
“It’s a place of holocaust. Our people starved to death there,” said Kevin Jensvold, chairman of the Upper Sioux Community, a small tribe with about 550 members just outside the park.
The Upper Sioux Agency state park in south-western Minnesota spans a little more than 2 sq miles (about 5 sq km) and includes the ruins of a federal complex where officers withheld supplies from Dakota people, leading to starvation and deaths.
Decades of tension exploded into the US-Dakota war of 1862 between settler-colonists and a faction of Dakota people, according to the Minnesota Historical Society. After the US won the war, the government hanged more people than in any other execution in the nation. A memorial honors the 38 Dakota men killed in Mankato, 110 miles (177km) from the park.
Jensvold said he has spent 18 years asking the state to return the park to his tribe. He began when a tribal elder told him it was unjust Dakota people at the time needed to pay a state fee for each visit to the graves of their ancestors there.

Lawmakers finally authorized the transfer this year when Democrats took control of the house, senate and governor’s office for the first time in nearly a decade, said State Senator Mary Kunesh, a Democrat and descendant of the Standing Rock Nation.
Tribes speaking out about injustices have helped more people understand how lands were taken and treaties were often not upheld, Kunesh said, adding that people seem more interested now in “doing the right thing and getting lands back to tribes”.
But the transfer also would mean fewer tourists and less money for the nearby town of Granite Falls, said Mayor Dave Smiglewski. He and other opponents say recreational land and historic sites should be publicly owned, not given to a few people, though lawmakers set aside funding for the state to buy land to replace losses in the transfer.
The park is dotted with hiking trails, campsites, picnic tables, fishing access, snowmobiling and horseback riding routes and tall grasses with wildflowers that dance in hot summer winds.
“People that want to make things right with history’s injustices are compelled often to support action like this without thinking about other ramifications,” Smiglewski said. “A number, if not a majority, of state parks have similar sacred meaning to Indigenous tribes. So where would it stop?”
In recent years, some tribes in the US, Canada and Australia have gotten their rights to ancestral lands restored with the growth of the Land Back movement, which seeks to return lands to Indigenous people.

A National Park has never been transferred from the US government to a tribal nation, but a handful are Co-managed with Tribes, including Grand Portage National Nonument in northern Minnesota, Canyon de Chelly National Monument in Arizona and Glacier Bay National Park in Alaska, Jenny Anzelmo-Sarles of the National Park Service said.
This will be the first time Minnesota transfers a state park to a Native American community, said Ann Pierce, director of Minnesota State Parks and trails at the natural resources department.
Minnesota’s transfer, expected to take years to finish, is tucked into several large bills covering several issues. The bills allocate more than $6m to facilitate the transfer by 2033. The money can be used to buy land with recreational opportunities and pay for appraisals, road and bridge demolition and other engineering.
Chris Swedzinski and Gary Dahms, the Republican lawmakers representing the portion of the state encompassing the park, declined through their aides to comment about their stances on the transfer.

Countdown to Remembrance Day
Each day, we honour Canada’s heroes from the Second World War by sharing their stories.
Flying Officer George “Buzz” Beurling, DSO, DFC, DFM & Bar
George Frederick "Buzz" Beurling was born on December 6, 1921, in Verdun, Quebec. Known as "The Falcon of Malta" for his remarkable skill as a fighter pilot, Beurling became Canada’s most successful Second World War ace, credited with downing 27 enemy aircraft over Malta in a span of just 14 days.
His relentless drive and unparalleled marksmanship led him to a total of 31 confirmed kills, making him one of the most celebrated yet unconventional Allied pilots of the war.

Sooo i started watching Hetalia a while ago and I'm enjoying it!
But I was just wondering, why do all the other country's have diffrent accents but Canada doesn't? Why doesn't he have a accent?
But then i remembered, I'm Canadian.
The reason Canada "doesn't have an accent" is because the accent sounds normal to me..
I'm a dumbass

“𝕃𝕠𝕟𝕘 𝕤𝕝𝕖𝕖𝕧𝕖𝕤 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝔸𝕦𝕥𝕦𝕞𝕟 𝕝𝕖𝕒𝕧𝕖𝕤” 🧣🍁 Great Gray Owl 🦉 Alberta, Canada 🇨🇦
📸 Lisa M Jones Photography
Yes, I know its still summer, but I can feel a touch of Autumn in the air. I have noticed the leaves slowly beginning to change colour, 🍂 and the overnight temperatures have gotten cooler. As much as I enjoy summer, I can’t deny that I look forward to the colourful beauty of the Autumn season. 🙌
Here’s hoping that I can capture gorgeous subjects like this great gray owl, in the stunning fall landscape this season. 🤞🫶🏼..
