Let’s NOT gaslight people into thinking that white supremacy isn’t fundamentally racism and atrocious. Tommy Tuberville ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! #racism #alabama #politics #greenscreen #news

This happened back in February but I’m still not over it - New Zealand has produced fossils of giant penguins before, but new fossil findings indicate some of the largest penguin fossils ever found. Researchers estimate these penguins would have been 340 pounds 😳 #paleontology #LearnOnTikTok #animals #penguins #giantpenguin

Don’t judge me for my cavities but let me know if you want more info about this because it gets kind of unhinged #anthropology #archaeology #history #LearnOnTikTok #healthyteeth #cavity

Replying to @rafa it’s a messy, bizarre cup of tea and NOBODY UNDERSTANDS HOW THIS HAPPENED #anthropology #archaeology #humanevolution #drama

New analysis of an archaeological site in the Iberian peninsula circa 2900-2650 BCE indicated high-status individual was female! Honestly read the research it is so freaking good 👏 #anthropology #archaeology #history #spain #gendernorms

No research just linguistics thoughts #linguistics #anthropology #alphamale

What do you think? My completely arbitrarty ranking of my roommate’s special edition monopolies #game #monopoly #specialedition #ranking

Pour one out for the pigeons. Also, fun fact, messenger pigeons can find their home from 1,000 miles away. #animals #funfact #history #birds #pigeon #justiceforpigeons

Google this. It’s real. It’s wild. It made international news in 2010 but I still think about it. It’s pandas. #animals #animalfunfacts #panda #funfacts

What do you think? I love this argument. Even if the Trojan War was really just a single skirmish, when you look at myths as a key to understanding cultures, you can learn a lot about their sources of conflict, values, social structures, and fears. Myths often contain a kernel of truth about events that happened and just became more and more dramatized over time. #funfacts #culture #history #greekmythology #anthropology

Replying to @Dawid great question! Again, there’s limited research on this, and unfortunately a decent amount is more anecdotal than anything else. #anthropology #funfacts #culture #patriarchy

Matrilineal and patrilineal descent systems play a big role in how our society passes history, power, and property through generations. It’s a complex idea that is often correlated with the ideas of matriarchy/patriarchy, matrilocality/patrilocality, and how we cooperate and interact as a society. This is just my perspective on the biggest implications of matrilineal or patrilineal descent from my own experiences, but it has broader implications across healthcare, education, and safety in communities. #anthropology #funfacts #culture #matriarchy #patriarch

I did NOT mean to apply this filter but I don’t want to refilm this so…. #storytime As someone who went to the University of Virginia (the school that Thomas Jefferson founded), this has always been my favorite story about Jefferson. History is stranger than fiction, and you can’t make this up. #history #historytime #foundingfathers #unitedstates #animalfacts
