Bro, imagine if all the gods from different religions and mythologies from different cultures were so competitive against each other to find out who was the best at what, so they created the Demigod tournament. Once every hundred or thousand years or so. The gods assemble their childrens camps of different mythological cultures, from the Greek mythology camp half blood all the way down to the American mythology camp half blood.

A team of demigods is handpicked by the gods to see would be worthy enough to compete. The contest is to test everything that makes a demigod. Strength, speed, agility, durability, reflexes, stamina, teamwork, power, etc.

Every time this event is held, it's a humongous deal in their world. It's the one time in centuries where demigods from other camps around the world come together, and both compete against one another and get to know one another. But the gods see this as an opportunity to see which mythology is better so they can rub the other gods' faces in it...All...The...Time.

The tests for this tournament change every century that the tournament is held, so no tournament is the same as the last, and it's changed by the gods who won the previous game.

All the gods set up the tournament but also had little temporary cabins for their children to sleep in, along with places where they can get food. The tournament is also recorded live for both gods' entertainment and for the demigods who are not participating. There's also commentary boxes with translators just in case, and it's protected by a dome shield of the gods' creation so that no threat of any mythology can intrude or interrupt when the tournament is held.

They also have games and activities for every demigod to do when those who aren't participating are not watching the tournament.

Let me know what you think

Remember how I always talk about Israel going for not just Palestine but Lebanon, Egypt, Jordan, Syria & so the list goes?

After all their aim is "Greater Israel" which I'll talk about in another blog one day, I'm just gathering material at the moment, anyways, as you know Egypt & Israel signed a peace treaty & Egypt got all the land back Al Hamd L Allah but that doesn't mean Israelis aren't allowed to come in as "tourists".

Dahab, one of the most beautiful small towns in Sinai our beautiful Egyptian land is always full of Israeli tourists who ran away after Israel called them back after what happened on the 7th of October.

Well today a girl shared a video, being harassed by an Israeli tourist who's claiming that he's the owner of the land & that we "Egyptians" are animals, enjoy:

Video credit to the Glocal on Instagram, they're an Egyptian media account on Instagram, here's also the link of the video:

remember when archie sonic made the echidnas british colonizers and not only were n*zi echidnas introduced but the guys they were actively being racist against (the dingoes) were portrayed as pissy bad guys, "appropriated" the echidna's technology (despite the echidnas themselves appropriated their land) because they "couldn't create technology of their own" and also more n*zi caricatures too

and then the spirit of one of their colonizers banished them to desert superhell
