The indigenous peoples of Mexico and Central America have some really fascinating history, so more information on their survival, and any parallels around the world would be welcome.

More often that not, you and I come across some fucker spouting off on what good natives are and what do they contribute to society. Blah blah blah. He (of course it's a he) deleted the comment before I could finish my response.
People need a reminder that this is bullshit.
You've run into them before, and you'll run into them again. It's regular, like winding a clock, or making a bowel movement. So here's a guy you can read about and bring up for the next time.
Here's a list of what John Romero has contributed to global culture.
It is completely possible for you, or your kids, or your friends and family, to graduate from school. To go through college. To learn things, to learn how to create with your mind and your eyes and your ears and your tongue and your hands, to build all kinds of wonderful beauty. To share it with the world at large, and to shape and form the world around you into something nice if you want to. There will be others who tell you different. They can sense what you can do, and they are afraid of it. Keep going. Do not stop until you have decided you must stop. And you will make your own way in the world.
Enjoy.
I'm wondering if certain rogue groups in the tribe ever invaded non-Yaqui homes and attacked people. I thought I read somewhere that this happened, but I haven't been able to find the source again, which makes me wonder if I'm mixing up the notion with something else.
Patch 1.2a has been released! This will likely be the final major release of the CK2 version, unless there are any other major bugs that escaped our notice. We sincerely apologize for the late delay - this winter was unusually rough for many of our developers, and we were unable to dedicate as much time to the mod as normal.
Given that this is the last major release of the Fan Fork, I'd like to say a few words. After the End has changed my life and many other lives in a way that most video game mods don't. It provides everything that a good mod should - a fascinating world with interesting history and characters, unique and innovative gameplay mechanics that build on vanilla to deliver a new experience, and idiosyncratic quirks and oddities that let the player know that it was made with love by a passionate team of developers. However, it also provided me and many others with a chance to contribute to this wonderful experience, igniting or reigniting passions for game design, coding, art, and sound design and providing us with a chance to show our talents to the world. The community around this mod is one of the most devoted and passionate communities for any video game mod ever, and I am blessed to have such a group of people enjoying my work and the work of my colleagues. I have made many of my closest friends through this mod and I don't think I would be the person I am today in any sense without it.
Although this is the end of the CK2 mod, this is by no means the end of AtE. Our devs remain hard at work on the CK3 version, which will hopefully impress you even more than the CK2 mod. Thank you for your support, and I'll see you in the next version.

>> Manifest destiny was a widely held cultural belief in the 19th-century United States that American settlers were destined to expand across North America.
Was there a barren and underpopulated half in your country that attracted settlers seeking to establish towns and cities with similar levels of civilization as the core cities of the time?
Honduras is too tiny for a Manifest Destiny ideal, but a similar pattern emerged when American banana companies started operation in the previously underpopulated north of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Population density focus points shifted from the center-south region to the Sula valley in the north and San Pedro Sula is now on par with Tegucigalpa regarding standards of living.
We were the first people's to be invaded by the Spanish. Taken as slaves and worked to death. Eventually we were almost extinct but a few of us survived. We are not extinct.
I only say this because I had an argument with a woman who just found out that she had native American ancestry and took a semester at college for indigenous studies.
She said I wasn't native American. Puerto Rico is in the Americas!
Do your worst!

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
They’re on standbi
Pilot on me!!
It really does, I swear!
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
What did 0 say to 8 ?
" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
When I got home, they were still there.
I won't be doing that today!
You take away their little brooms
This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
There hasn't been a post all year!
