One of my favorite things to bring up to folks is the correlation between global flood myths across multiple ancient civilizations. How is it that all these people who've never had contact with one another all have myths about a giant flood? Do you honestly believe it was subsistence hunter cavemen who wiped out all the megafauna? They put skilled hunters on the line every time just to kill these creatures en masse? Not to mention these megafauna are all well preserved meaning they weren't even butchered for meat. How were the great planes formed?? You think the cavemen just did that too? Core samples found in Greenland show traces of nuclear glass. Glass that's only formed through intense heat. Now I'm not suggesting we were nuked back into the stone age, that's crazy talk, but have you ever wondered why ancient civilizations were so obsessed with tracking the stars? Was it cause they were just bored? Or was it because they were watching for another meteor? Have you ever thought about the fact that humans today are nearly indistinguishable from humans 65,000 years ago? They had the same capabilities as us and yet written records only begin to appear a few thousand years ago? Doesn't that seem odd to you? Have you ever thought about how you would preserve history? Hard drives? CD's? Paper? On a long enough timeline all these things decay. Oral traditions like storytelling? Now that's a good way to ensure things get passed down but things end up getting distorted along the way. A generations long game of telephone
Tldr: history has been wiped out once before and it's likely that's it's happened multiple times. This implies that it could happen again

-FLASHBACK FRIDAY- To the 20/05/2024: Ciarra Mermay 2024 day 07: Yellow bellied Turtle.
For this days Mermay prompt the theme is based around the Yellow bellied Turtle also known as the Yellow bellied slider. Here we have two new Mermaid OC's "Jess" and "Mazz" ( Jess is the one with Lavender coloured hair, Mazz is the Red head remember that now!).
The two Merms have found a jolly Turtle named "Tyke" who has just eaten 30 Chicken nuggets! Do Turtles eat Chicken Nuggets? Well I know that they eat Pizza so why not Nuggets 😁.
I'm gonna try and upload all the Mermay posts I did last month on to here so watch this space!

When Truth is Not Stranger Than Fiction in Indiana
Conservatives are flocking to Indiana from Illinois including some family and friends. They claim it’s about high taxes in Illinois. When they slowly explain that to us, the only thing missing is a “duh!” at the end of their explanation, as if we Illinoisans are the dopes. I have to admit, taxes are higher in Illinois, but you get what you pay for. We pay for a progressive, welcoming state. And…
