Controversial Truths About Ancient Egypt Masterpost
The pyramids were built by contemporary workers who received wages and were fed and taken care of during construction
The Dendera “lightbulb” is a representation of the creation myth and has nothing to do with electricity
We didn’t find “““copper wiring””” in the great pyramid either
Hatshepsut wasn’t transgender
The gods didn’t actually have animal heads
Hieroglyphs aren’t mysteriously magical; they’re just a language (seriously we have shopping lists and work rosters and even ancient erotica)
The ancient Egyptian ethnicity wasn’t homogeneous
Noses (and ears, and arms) broke off statues and reliefs for a variety of reasons, none of which are “there is a widespread archaeological conspiracy to hide the Egyptian ethnicity”
Ramadan Mubarak to all of my fellow Muslims, especially those who cannot fast. Just because you cannot fast does not mean this is not an important month ❤
I’ve been seeing a lot of anti-Nazi ones, which is great, but I felt like we needed one to show our support for the Jewish community.
Simon taking out his anger over Wille being celebrated for kissing a girl out on Wille because it probably looks to him like Wille is now trying to conform to what’s expected of him. Wille looks like he’s starting to conform and Simon sees through the bullshit.
Felice is not a threat. You don’t love Felice. You love me. Fight for me. There’s a desperation in Simon’s eyes as he rips into Wille in the locker room and eggs him on; he can feel Wille pulling away and no longer fighting for them, and it makes him angry.
Despite trying to move on, despite trying to forget his feelings for Wille, deep down all Simon wants is for Wille to fight for them, and that’s why he panics so much when Wille finally starts moving away.
You told me you didn’t want to be who they want you to be and here you are doing exactly that.
1820’s-kidnap a girl and literally torture her to the point of insanity and when her family entombs her alive literally doesn’t even lift a finger. Executes a woman (who they thought was pregnant) just because her husband wasn’t what they considered brave. (I have no idea when the Edmund Herondale thing happend so I put it on here, feel free to correct me)
1880’s-Is disgusted by Tessa’s specie and doesn’t hesitate to tell her so. Laughs and ignores when someone asks for their aid to take down their biggest enemy just because the person who asked was a woman. Tries to take away the title of institute head from a completely capable shadowhunter because of her gender.
1920’s- Is still disgusted by Tessa’s specie and doesn’t hesitate to tell her or her two children.
1980’s-starts to show a little bit of humanity that is then destroyed by a racist maniac
2000’s-Humanity? Bye, bye, you little shit and welcome back to stupid-ass decisions town. Nearly gives up and bows down to racist maniac and his demon army because they don’t want to make downworlders equal.
Rips apart a family from their sister because her father was forced to have affairs with a a faerie causing her to have faerie blood, something she certainly had no way of controling. And then forbids them to search for their brother that is literally suffering torture in Fae land. Then, as if that wasn’t enough, submits two eight-year-olds and two twelve-year-olds to trail.
2010’s- Is literally commanded by racist maniac 2.0
So, yeah, the Clave’s a little corrupt shit and I’m yearning for the moment where Alec shuts it down.
Leon, alias ugliesarewaste, alias killalluglies, alias slaughter-uglies, etc. is back. He targets people who he thinks are ugly and bombards them with asks telling them to kill themself. His URL changes constantly since Tumblr keeps deleting his blog, but it's always pretty similar in it's meaning.
I'm pretty unbothered by comments like that, plus I've already annoyed him so much he blocked me once, but please, if you see this guy in your notifications, BLOCK THAT MOTHERFUCKER. He's dangerous. Earlier this year he caused a girl to commit suicide and on top of that he's also a pedophile.
