So let's not invent a shield that can stop any fast incoming forces using arcane physical effects... Heard that turns out badly

To expand on this: mutations between generations happen exactly there, between generations. So the parents of the "first" chicken (if you draw the line somewhere on the evolutionary scale) were not chicken; the egg however was a chicken egg, as it contained a chicken.

But social media is an essential industry in how opinions are formed.

What is that map though

Small niche subs are the only reason I'm still using reddit. Not the main subs, again bots are the problem, but small niches are unfortunately slow to migrate to an entirely new platform because it's not guaranteed that the community comes with it (unlike large generic subs like memes, which has a very general audience)

But there were? Just off the top of my head you have Deir al-Medina, which is the village were the workers assigned to the tombs in the valley of kings were assigned to (not exactly the pyramids, but similar enough). We have records of how they complained about bad working conditions and missing supplies, which were usually promptly dealt with because of the importance of the tombs to royal ideology.

Also: what about the texts literally in the pyramids that describe how they were being built and by whom (at least by whom further up in the hierarchy)? It's not like those aren't texts because they're not written in the Latin alphabet. Archaeologists did not, in fact, make up how pyramids/tombs were constructed.

Sure they are different, but if somehow someone finds out just one password of yours, all others are broken too, right?

This looks like an early internet "hey look at my cool blog" page
