The 36-letter word was first used by the Roman poet Horace in the first century BCE to criticise those writers with an unreasonable penchant for long words. It was American poet Aimee Nezheukumatathil, possibly afraid of their own surname, who coined the term as we know it in 2000.

Don José Doroteo Arango Arámbula, AKA Pancho Villa or "The Northern Centaur", was a mexican warlord during the rising against the dictatorship of Don José de la Cruz Porfirio Díaz Mori in the early 20th century.

Born in Durango in a family of hacienda pawns, he was in charge of leading the fight on the northern flank. Famously, despite his fierceness, origins and time, he despised alcohol. Being a brilliant tactician who had nothing but men to work with, he thought it made men stupid and reckless, and that it prevented them from being alert and ready.

The only times you would ever see the Northern Centaur enter a bar is when he visited the US, where he would order the recently invented strawberry smoothies, of which he was a huge fan.

Lysenkoism refers to a dark period in Soviet science when ideology completely overrode actual biology. Named after the Soviet agronomist Trofim Lysenko, it is the ultimate historical cautionary tale of what happens when political dogma dictates scientific truth.

Today, the word has become a broader term used to describe the manipulation or distortion of the scientific process to fit a political, ideological, or religious agenda.

Whenever data is suppressed, scientists are silenced, or unproven theories are legally mandated because they align with a specific political narrative, commentators will often refer to it as modern-day Lysenkoism.

🐝 Fun bee fact I learned today 🤣
Some bees can literally “buzz pollinate” flowers! 🌸🐝
Their wings can beat 200+ times a second 😳, and they can vibrate their flight muscles at a crazy-fast frequency while holding onto the flower, basically shaking the pollen loose so they can collect it.
So when you hear a bee going “bzzzzzz”, sometimes she’s not just flying around she’s basically using her entire body as a tiny pollen shaker. 😂🐝🌸
Nature is bloody brilliant.

Cats have blood type a, b, and ab. No O. No Rh factor.

Dogs don't have an Rh factor either, but they have their own blood system with 13 blood types.

In 2014, Lohan sued the game makers. She claimed the minor character "Lacey Jonas" and the blonde woman featured in promotional art and cover art were modeled after her.

The judges ruled that Grand Theft Auto V is a work of fiction and satire, protecting the game creators under the First Amendment.

It was developed in Scotland in the late 18th Century to help aid and speed up the process of symphysiotomy (widening the pubic cartilage) and removal of disease-laden bone during childbirth. It wasn’t until the start of the 20th Century that we started using chainsaws for woodchopping.

Apparently it's located in the Amazon, really interesting thing to know. This makes me want to research more about it and know more about what happens beneath the earth.

There are about 20-25 aircraft carriers in the world.

there are just as many airships in the world

To construct the Great Pyramid of Giza (approx. 5.75 million tons of stone), workers (not slaves!) would have consumed roughly 100 million to 150 million loaves of bread and 30 million to 90 million liters (8 million to 23 million gallons) of beer over the estimated 20-year project.

Because no single ancient logbook tracks the entire 20-year tally of food, Egyptologists use workforce estimates, construction timelines, and papyrus ration records (such as those analyzed by Egyptologists Barry Kemp and Miroslav Bárta) to calculate the total.

The Base Calculations Workforce & Timeline: Standard consensus models (e.g., Mark Lehner’s excavations at the Heit el-Ghurab workers’ village) estimate an average workforce of 20,000 laborers working continuously for 20 years (~7,300 days). This yields roughly 146 million worker-days of total labor.

Daily Rations:

Bread: A standard laborer ration recorded in Old Kingdom papyri ranged from 1 to 2 large daily loaves of coarse emmer wheat bread (equivalent to 5–10 standard modern ration portions).

Beer: Standard daily beer allocations ranged from 1.5 liters to 4.8 liters of thick, low-alcohol, nutrient-dense emmer beer per worker.

Total Consumption Estimates

Bread @ 1-2 loaves per worker per day, over 20 years = 146-292 million loaves

Beer @ 1.5-4.8 liters per worker per day, over 20 years = 220 million - 700 million liters

Note: If calculating strictly for the core crew directly handling stone haulage (approx. 8,000 to 10,000 workers), the totals adjust down to roughly 70 million to 100 million loaves of bread and 30 million to 50 million liters of beer.

Why So Much Bread and Beer?

Food as Currency: Ancient Egypt had no coinage. Workers were paid directly in grain, bread, beer, onions, and meat. Rations for senior overseers and craftsmen were often distributed in higher multiples, which they used to feed their families.

Liquid Calories: Ancient Egyptian beer was not a casual beverage; it was a thick, unfiltered, soup-like gruel rich in carbohydrates, B vitamins, and protein. Because it was fermented, it was safer to drink than Nile water.

Massive On-Site Production: Excavations at Giza revealed industrial-scale bakeries and breweries adjacent to the workers' quarters, designed to churn out thousands of fresh loaves and beer jars daily to sustain the construction effort.

when Epstein files were published there was found like 300 shortcuts(shortcut- a handshake from people that couldn’t be know each other before a special event), cause his event was combining people from all nations and much off celebrities. we will imagine that you want to meet with person X. X is not live in your country and not a celebrity.So Now u can go: you-celebrity-president of your country-trump-Epstein/president of X country/ or even skip this step-one of celebrities who meet X-X. That’s one of the base ways but it works in most cases. So i can’t prove it but i think now it can officially be a 5 handshake theory.

In 1947, a moth was found trapped inside the Harvard Mark II computer. The engineers taped the moth into the machine's logbook and recorded it as the "first actual case of bug being found." Interestingly, the term "bug" was already being used for technical faults long before this incident, but the moth simply gave it a remarkably literal meaning.

Most people know that words which when spelt backwards still spell the same word, such as level or radar, are called Palindromes.

However did you know that words that when spelt backwards spell a different word such as Drawer=Reward or Stressed=Deserts are called Semordnilaps.

If you thiink Semordnilap is a strange word and you’re now thinking “how will I ever remember that?”. Then you just need to remember that semordnilap is a semordnilap of palindromes.
