So was going through some videos on YouTube when I discovered this video.

The short version is that it’s about a myth where a Ukrainian fighter pilot shot down 7-8 Russian craft and 10-12 helicopters, if true then good for Ukraine, if not then at least the people have something to believe in which gives them hope and hope is a very powerful thing.

Just a little head's up: I decided to participate in the Hazardous Writing Materials challenge for this week, the prompt being "history." In this case, it'll be more like pre-history.

You read that right, so I'll elaborate. September, October, November and December are the last 4 months of the year, everyone know this. What most of your probably don't know is that their names are effectively meaningless now, once again I promise to explain. September literally means the 7th month, October literally means the 8th month, November literally means the 9th month and December literally means the the 10th month. Every other month of the was either added in by the Romans, see the

[Since IYGALL has been such a massively long ride, I figured there's too much for me to talk about in just one blog post. Today's is more cut-and-dry history, while tomorrow's will be more of just random thoughts I had at various points while writing. Also, just gonna warn you, I do crack some dumb jokes in this section]

I’ve been meaning for some time to air some musings on a matter that I’ve always found to be puzzling. The topic is an opinion I’ve seen expressed by a number of intellectuals and artists, most of whom I respect. It is that religion causes wars. As most religions are touted as means of establishing peace, assertions to the contrary are interesting and warrant investigation.

So, since As Time Goes By won the SunsetxEqg villain competition I got to choose the next theme. I didn't need long, having had an idea for a long while.

Here in the states, and probably many other nations tomorrow is the day we call Saint Patrick’s Day. Saint Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland, and has a bit of his mythology surrounding him.

That all said, they don’t call it Saint Patrick’s Day in Ireland. They call the holiday the Feast of Saint Patrick, it’s a holiday where they celebrate his life on the anniversary of his death. So yeah, the holiday isn’t his birthday but the day he died. Let that all sink in for a moment.

So, last week we covered Windows. This week we're covering Linux. And Linux servers don't come with graphical user interfaces, so you have to type everything out. And this is supposedly the greatest operating system in the world. Personally, I'll stick to Windows.

The town I live in has always been a fond memory for me. I have lots of fond memories of my town. It's a little place called Beverley, which is a small town but very rich in history. Because it's where I grew up, I absorbed little and large amounts of that history, and I can tell you for a fact that it's one of the most haunted towns in the UK or maybe the world. In fact, there are books written about it called Haunting in Beverley and The East Riding of Yorkshire, the author(s) being Peter

“Early in life I have noticed that no event is ever correctly reported in a newspaper, but in Spain, for the first time, I saw newspaper reports which did not bear any relation to the facts, not even the relationship which is implied in an ordinary lie. I saw great battles reported where there had been no fighting, and complete silence where hundreds of men had been killed. I saw troops who had fought bravely denounced as cowards and traitors, and others who had never seen a shot fired

So I won't lie, all of what I'm gonna show to you is made using AI. But I'm not using these as the "Finished looks", but these are more of concepts, as I'm terrible at drawing, and don't have cash to pay someone to draw them. But this is the main idea:
