We had my sister-in-law's boyfriend to our house yesterday, who is from #Iran, and my kids were making coloured eggs. He pointed out that they do that in Iran, too, for #Nowruz, and now I *must* find out if these practices are related!

Nowruz is an *ancient* holiday, and #Easter is an old #pagan word for a very #Christian holiday, but "Easter" for many people is eggs and bunnies (ie, #RitesOfSpring), so this stuff could ALL be related.

Small-town Maine. 1957. A dirt dig turns into a plot twist: Viking coin, 900 years old, sitting pretty where it absolutely shouldn’t be. No ships, no skeletons—just one silver outlaw. Maybe it traveled hand-to-hand across Indigenous trade highways. That’s one hell of a journey.

Drought alone didn’t undo the Classic Maya 🌵

Elite refusal to structurally adapt compounded environmental stress. When leadership prioritizes image over reform, vulnerability deepens.

Collapse is rarely sudden. It’s cumulative denial.
