I would be rich, charismatic, handsome, well connected, influential, happy, and dumb as a brick. I would be blessed; the rest of you I don’t know so much about.

Any specific regions or time periods?

Any books that you would recommend

Oh absolutely I got a mini library of…

aren’t academic

Nope.

Aztecs.

Mixtec-Pueblo culture before European contact was vibrant, dynamic, and layered. It was reflected by its surrounding cultures of K’iche’ (Mayan), Chichimeca, Iréchikwa (Purepecha), and Otomi. Their books look like comics painted on accordions. I’ve been to Teotihuacan so I’ve seen the massive pyramids the peoples of the valley built millennia ago. I’ve read about how cities were planned and zoned then built with stone and you can still witness the logic behind those decisions today. The comida is good too.

I wish I was smart so I could learn Spanish easier.

The qualifying part is just factually wrong. The other part is up to a new host country to decide. I haven’t heard any opening the door to throngs of Americans.

The Americas are not the E.U. You have to be approved to immigrate to Canada & Mexico unless you want to over stay a visa. In spite of my love pre-contact indigenous history of Meso-america my Spanish is garbage. I don’t qualify for refugee status.

Where would I go? Who would take me?

“Give up on being happy. It’s just a distraction. If you do not succeed you will be wretched. If you fail you will not survive.”

Yeah it’s really bad. Your gripe is justified in my eyes.

Huh, no? There’s a literal trumpet at the end of the book series. Like the musical instrument. It’s incredibly dumb.

Edit: I’m almost certain Stephen King hates Trump.

“maybe”

Fuck that trumpet.

Tell him that I want two hundred dollars in either tokens, quarters, or credits (whatever the machine takes) or I expose this loveless sham of a marriage. I’m then going to fuck off to play Galaga and Centipede.

It really does break my heart knowing so many codices were destroyed. The ones that survived are the neatest comic books ever made and it’s such a tragedy so much art was burned.

Moche, Wari, etc.? I’m an Anthropology nerd, what are you digging?

Exactly what I wanted. Good job.

Few things:

1. Appreciate ya.
2. I’m neither shouting or trolling.
3. Don’t eat garbage.

It seems to me that people here are getting really upset by the idea that buying a sugary treat commercial product is trashy. Growing up I had no choices other than trash. Now I’m going to call out trashy behavior when I see it. Eating junk food is trashy.

Yes, it’s not hard.

Because I was raised by an idiot redneck that fed me the typical American diet, I was an unhealthy fat kid. So I’m going to call garbage out when I see it.

I wouldn’t walk 20 feet for those. Fast food is not healthy or cheap. The ice cream you can make at home is easy, cheap, and usually tastes better than anything you can purchase.
