In seriousness though the hypothesis writing was just invented once in Sumeria and spread around is not widely believed anymore. Writing at the very least was invented twice, in Sumeria and Mesoamerica, but it also appears to have been independently invented in China and possibly Egypt.

The alphabet specifically seems to have only been invented once though and all alphabetic scripts are derived from it in some way.

Tangentially, I randomly just learned that made reading kanji in the wild a little easier

French taco looks like it's just a crispy burrito, leaving the fact they got the name wrong aside, I'd be quite happy to have that as drunk food after a night out

Just because France says it's a taco doesn't make it one. This is a clear example of linguistic devolution.

Comment by the guy who posted it was roughly 'treating myself to some chicken, mayo, and ice cream 🙂" and that's it.

That chicken has been baked at the perfect time and temperature to ensure a safe temperature, while avoiding any hint of color or moisture.

When I was a kid in the 80's my mom made one of those dirt cakes in a flower pot with gummy worms and fake flowers etc. What she failed to do was seal the holes on the bottom of the pot and also not make it far too moist. We thought the dog was leaking fluid...

EDIT: this but in an actual flower pot. with holes on the bottom



EDIT 2: "Do dogs have periods???" is suddenly a question for 3 kids under 10

Thinking about it, I wouldn't be surprised if both Krispy Kreme and Popeye's had folks from corporate on hand to make sure the food going out was perfect. Those first few weeks/months of donuts and fried chicken were probably about as perfect as you can get from those companies.

You haven't lived until you've watched a big southern white man squeeze mayo onto every single bite of food, squeezy bottle disappearing in his massive fist so it looks like each contraction of his meat paw is squeezing a massive cyst.
