do you want to know something?? I always wondered what the hell kind of hairstyle the Ancient Egyptians were trying to portray with depictions like these
and this
until I did my hair this morning and
oh
welp
you can take the noses off our statues but until you find a way to take Egypt out of Africa we’re still going to find ourselves
I’m reblogging this post without all the salty, racist commentary because I’m sick of looking at it. please spread this around again in its pure form for posterity.
What’s funny is that white people thought they were hats/crowns 😂
And here’s some pictures of the Afar people, who still live on the horn of Africa today.
Cool, huh?
Beautiful
People thought it was Hats and Crowns? How could they not see hair?
The same reason archaeologists, upon finding a woman’s skeleton in the grave of a famous Roman gladiator, immediately wondered where the gladiator’s skeleton was: Old Straight White Man™ brand denial.
Same way they denied the Really Gay Egyptian Tomb, too. It’s kind of a Thing.
This post is amazing, I’m so glad it exists. I have learned.
me, showing off my university degree: that’s right everyone, i paid multiple dollars to the government in order to attain sporadic sprinklings of knowledge that i forgot two months after each class ended
bruce banner has 7 phds? thats so excessive.. if i met someone with 7 phds i would honestly just be like wtf is wrong with you? its not even the fact that it would take so much time and effort to get them its that there is literally no situation where 7 phds is necessary. thats never gonna happen. hes honestly gotta be so stupid to think for some reason he needs 7 phds.

Bruce Banner was broke as shit but really good at getting graduate assistantships/scholarships (less good at getting Real World Jobs) so he just went from PhD to PhD for like a decade, just churning out dissertations while weeping and muttering under his breath “i have no real-world skills i have no real-world skills i hAVE NO REAL WORLD SKILLS AAAAAAAHHH”
I guess that’s why he has anger issues. I can understand what so many years in academia has done to Dr. Banner.
I can stomach bro-type boys who actually are quite sweet and loveable beneath their bro exterior significantly more than like, guys who study philosophy and write “poetry” but beneath it all actually have the skewed moral compass and heedless self absorption of your common or garden bro.
Honestly I’m still not over the fact that Bethesda gave me a chain-smoking, gravelly-voiced, film noir robo-detective with a heart of gold and didn’t give me the opportunity to fuck him. Did they think none of us would want to fuck him?? Or are they just giant cockteases?? I’m leaning towards the latter based on “is there any machine you can’t charm” and “got a thing for antiques huh” UHH YEAH I FUCKING DO NICK WHY WON’T YOU LOVE ME BACK
