I got to hold a 500,000 year old hand axe at the museum today.

It's right-handed

I am right-handed

There are grooves for the thumb and knuckle to grip that fit my hand perfectly

I have calluses there from holding my stylus and pencils and the gardening tools.

There are sharper and blunter parts of the edge, for different types of cutting, as well as a point for piercing.

I know exactly how to use this to butcher a carcass.

A homo erectus made it

Some ancestor of mine, three species ago, made a tool that fits my hand perfectly, and that I still know how to use.

Who were you

A man? A woman? Did you even use those words?

Did you craft alone or were you with friends? Did you sing while you worked?

Did you find this stone yourself, or did you trade for it? Was it a gift?

Did you make it for yourself, or someone else, or does the distinction of personal property not really apply here?

Who were you?

What would you think today, seeing your descendant hold your tool and sob because it fits her hands as well?

What about your other descendant, the docent and caretaker of your tool, holding her hands under it the way you hold your hands under your baby's head when a stranger holds them.

Is it bizarre to you, that your most utilitarian object is now revered as holy?

Or has it always been divine?

Or is the divine in how I am watching videos on how to knap stone made by your other descendants, learning by example the way you did?

Tomorrow morning I am going to the local riverbed in search of the appropriate stones, and I will follow your example.

The first blood spilled on it will almost certainly be my own, as I learn the textures and rhythm of how it's done.

Did you have cuss words back then? Gods to blaspheme when the rock slips and you almost take your thumbnail off instead? Or did you just scream?

I'm not religious.

But if spilling my own blood to connect with a stranger who shared it isn't partaking in the divine

I don't know what is.

One thing I really love about seedy anime websites and YouTube mp3 converters is like. They actually do what they say they’re doing. But they WILL try to trick you into downloading a virus. Like it’s almost just a greeting at this point. I try to extract a song from a YouTube video and it says free VPN installer tonight perhaps? Free VPN installer tonight queen? And I say YouTube-mp3 converter you sly dog, you know what I’m here for. Show me the goods. And YouTube-mp3 converter says ahhh you got me, no getting one over on you. Thought it was worth a try tho. Here you go king x

“Barbenheimer” sounds like a mafia movie directed by Martin Scorcese actually.

[thesoulofseverussnape]

this may not make sense to anyone else, but i'm gonna say it anyway; barbenheimer is like goncharov, but actually real

I wanted to make a post cuz the only thing being talked about is that Russia is experiencing a coup, and that's all people are talking about. It was quickly called off and no one is being arrested. Something else happened- we don't know what.

Its in meme format cuz just a text post giving yall information wont really do the numbers, hmm?

read about it here

EDITING THIS CUZ I WASNT CLEAR: This is not a good thing-nor bad- war is not black and white. This is just what's happening and what is being shown on our news sources. Please do your own research.:)

Obligatory "tumblr shouldn't be your only source for news, especially a destiel meme."

Everyday i see Supernatural trending and i just think "what near world-ending shit are we going through today?"

[thesoulofseverussnape]

EVERY.FUCKING.DAY.

I go to sleep to a disaster and wake up to another

I never thought my life would come to the point where I'd get my news updates from fucking Supernatural memes but here we are.

Also why the fuck are we speed running history? Like i thought we were over that shit.

I honestly know too much about history to not be absolutely terrified of what's gonna happen next.
