What’s the meme here
That the Sumerian’s will use anything but metric.
Apparently, muricans are a lost tribe of Sumerians.
Hold on a sec. I need to write up some golden tablets or something.
Well you see, in 1793, 'Merica requested the metric artifacts from France so we could be metric too. France sent over a kilogram, but the shipment was lost at sea. And that was a little sad.
All joking aside, US feet, inches, pounds, and so on have been secretly really metric since 1893.
eh.
Fun fact. if you use your knucklebones to count instead of fingers, and you use multiplication instead of addition you can get to 144 counting on your fingers. (i.e. one digit on the second hand is equal to a full hand- 12- on the first.)
yeah. some bullshit about that being why we have 12 hours, and 12 inches in a foot, is totally going into those golden tablets.
(IIRC, we have 12 hours because there was 10 hours of daylight in Egypt, and an hour on either end for twilight. that evolved into the 24 hour system we have today.)
I think I’ll call my new religion

It’s a screenshot of a Twitter post, that’s a meme right?
If I remember correctly, Homo sapiens sapiens was not only coetaneous with Mammoths, but we are widely considered to be one, if not the main cause of their extintion.
Also constructions like Gobekli tepe, with it’s carvings and decorations, predate the extintion of Mammoths by something like 6000 years.
Well, that’s a new word on me. Thought spell check corrected contemporary.
I… am so disappointed this didn’t go where, for a split second, my brain thought it was going.

Chickens are dinosaurs - and humans are mammoths!!
Birds are dinosaurs. Humans are not mammoths
Don’t tell me what I am and am not
Weren’t there like full blown civilizations at that point? Kinda weird to refer to mammoths as if it were some stone age prehistoric period and be surprised that someone could craft something like this then lol
I think the pyramids at Giza were a few millennia old at that point eh?
Several, yes. Egypt, Uruk, Indus, etc
Just using some tiny mammoth population on an isolated island in Siberia to state “MAMMOTHS WERE STILL ROAMING THE EARTH WHEN BLAH BLAH BLAH” is somewhat disingenuous.
Is it a lie though?
Also pretending that 4000 years ago humans were still hunter gatherers or something (it’s kind of implied in the wording imo). 4000 years ago there were plenty of fairly developed civilisations around.
That is a locust.
Ur mom is a locust. Huht huht huht.
One hopps grass the other grasses hopps.
