apparently native american tribes were in contact with the donner party and offered them food when they saw the colonists were starving and the donner party turned them down and decided to go the whole “cannibalism” route instead.

✨ Here are the prompts as I promised! They are timeless, whenever they find you, feel free to use them.
Feel free to share your thoughts with me!!
✧ Day 1 What do I need to stop running away from? Why am I always running away from this and what is going to happen if I face it head-on?
✧ Day 2 What is my definition of failure? What’s something that I have previously failed at and how did it make me feel? How can I deal with failure in a healthy way?
✧ Day 3 How do I lie to myself everyday? Why am I doing this and what am I trying to avoid?
✧ Day 4 If I could say one thing to the person who hurt me the most, what would it be and why? How would I feel afterwards?

You ever have a compliment that just sticks with you for literal years and years? Maybe forever?
For me, it’s when I was working as a figure model for art classes at my university (because it paid well due to being an early-morning thing and was easy to get because nobody else wanted to apply due to the near-nakedness and pervasive body image issues in our culture). There was this one professor who was always so happy when I showed up as the female model for that day because he said that I had a “good sense of motion”, and it was fun to draw. (Which, in itself, was a great compliment because I am a clumsy, self conscious person.)
But what really got me was one day we were doing 15-minute poses, which are harder to do because you need to come up with something interesting and dynamic, but you have to be able to hold it for a quarter of an hour without moving even a little bit. They didn’t have any specific guidance for us, so I just… did something. Idk. But about five minutes into wandering around helping the students and talking to them, he paused and told me that I was doing a good job, and, “What a fun pose. You’re reminding me of Rodin’s ‘Eve,’ there. You always have a very Rodin sort of energy about you. Thanks for waking up early for us.” And then just went back to discussing the use of ink with one of the students like he hadn’t almost reduced me to tears.
Then I went home and looked up Rodin’s ‘Eve’ and was blown away because she actually did look like me? I had ended up in that pose almost exactly just by chance, but she also had a soft, squidgy tummy and the hip dips and weird butt and big feet and thunder thighs and strong calves, just like me.
And I don’t have a great relationship with my body. Very much the opposite. I frequently hate the way I look and fit into it, but then occasionally from the depths of the past comes the voice of an art nerd telling me I’m like a Rodin sculpture, and I feel like, “Yeah, I have Rodin Energy so suck it, brain!” And it helps me reframe the way I’m thinking about myself because I can get outside of my head for a minute and see that while I’m frustrated with my body, it has an art to it just by existing. Soft tummy? Fun to draw, nice curves! Big thighs? Strong lines! Dimples and wrinkles and slopes become a place for light to sit. Bodies are so cool, and that includes mine! Even if it’s not quite what I want it to be, it’s still a work of art that nature sculpted just for me.
And for him it just seemed like such an off-handed, normal, natural thing to say. He thought “Hey, that looks like Rodin,” and so he said it.
Just… Idk. Compliment people. Say what’s on your mind. You have no idea whether it’s going to totally change a person’s life. It’s just words to you but it could be really, deeply important to them.
I really appreciate the idea of George a college student slowly realizing that his very best friend lives a whole ocean away and is also some kid he met on a minecraft sever. Plus added bonus of George meeting Sapnap and deciding he's gonna have beef with a high schooler before realizing that shit these high schoolers are my friends now. And then slowly but surely his sleep schedule is getting fucked up, his career path has altered greatly, he's a millionaire, he wants to move to America.... and he's never seen his best friends face.
It's just wild to me and honestly I can see how friends could get it easily confused for dating. I love my best friends dearly and maybe if I'd never met them in person + our careers were entangled I'd spend all day on phone calls with them but idk I can't see myself in that situation lol.
george be like. i’m a compsci major. i’m a gamer with a foul mouth. i’m asking a teen to pay me to code for him. i’m working on the same server with the teen who asked me to code for him. i’m friends with the teen who asked me to code for him. i’m laughing at his pyramid code. i’m best friends with him. he’s a high schooler. i’m friends with a high schooler. i’m best friends with a high schooler. holy shit i’m friends with another high schooler. i’m obsessed with nutella. why does my best friend keep telling me i look like shawn mendes. why is my other best friend annoying and argues with me. i am a uni graduate. my best friend is a youtuber. my best friend wants me to be a youtuber. i am now a youtuber. my best friend just gave me $5000 for being a youtuber. i am going to learn helplessness. i refuse to tell my best friend i love him on screen. he desperately snitches whenever i tell him off screen. no one believes him. he gives me more money. he saves me in minecraft. i learn even more helplessness. i am ruining my sleep schedule to hang out with my best friends. i have never met my best friends. everyone thinks i am in love with my best friend. i’m a millionaire. my sleep schedule is even worse now. i have so much pretty privilege. i am going to abuse my pretty privilege. i am a brat. i am a menace. my best friend gives me anything i want. i am going to brag about this and use it to my heart’s content. i am going to make everyone that i interact with give me things for free. i am even more of a millionaire now. i am a millionaire whose job is filming and editing videos. i refuse to edit my videos. my best friend who is richer and busier than me is editing my video for me. i am going to let this go to my head. i am making him edit my next video. he won’t edit my next video. i don’t need him. i have always been independent. the axolotl wasn’t green? i need a haircut. my best friend needs to tell me how to cut my hair or i won’t get a haircut. every time i run into the tiniest inconvenience i will whine to my best friend to help me. he lives five thousand miles away. that is irrelevant. he should be finding some way to help me regardless. i have allegedly never seen his face. i am moving to america. i am filming vlogs with tommy before i move to america. wilbur soot thinks i am dating my best friend. this is entirely his fault for not knowing the memes. several of our friends have no idea what is going on between me and my best friend. i do nothing about these rumors. i make them worse
