John Tyler (the 10th president and born in 1790) has a grandson who’s still alive.


I just googled crazy

He’s one of the last living members of a club of people who seem like they are bending time, demonstrating that “long ago” isn’t so long ago. There was the man who fought with George Washington in the Revolutionary War who lived long enough to be photographed; the womanwho received her father’s Civil War pension until her death in May; a retired man in Washington whose father was born enslaved.

All that shyt that’s on Ancient Aliens. They had batteries in Baghdad in BC times and it’s a lot of other out of place history artifacts.

also my Florida brehs have y’all been to the coral castle? This guy built a whole mansion by himself out of it and it’s said that he had some tech that made the heavy objects float or some shyt


This shyt is hilarious

More guns (400 million) in america than people.
The world produces enough food for 12 billion people, even though we only have 7 billion, yet there's still world hunger.
The American Revolution was over something as stupid as "taxation without representation" when the U.S. colonies were just an extension of the UK so they weren't entitled to any representation same way modern U.S. territories have no representation in congress
For your second point I think that was kinda the point. Territories don’t go to war with the US over their independence because it would be suicide and because it’s a delicate balancing act of competing interests. The original US colonies figured they would be better of alone.

There are more Polish people in Chicago than Warsaw
Probably cause they were on the extermination list in ww2. U realize that was the first country to fall and face genocide in the war right? What happened down in Puerto Rico? Also, Warsaw is a city, not a country with Olympics teams

The fact that in every car, there's an arrow next to the gas guage that tells you what side the gas cap is on.

When I was younger, I would be driving folks cars, dad, brother, friends etc and would always stick my head out the car trying to see what side to fill up on.

When I learned about that, I hit the :ohhh: and I went and checked every car and sure enough it was there.

I was driving my dads van a few weeks back (I rarely drive it, maybe once every 5 months) and was trying to fill up and all I did was look at that lil arrow like :smugfavre:
