Youtuber I thought of as a disembodied voice is shown to be a human with skin.

My dealer: got some straight gas 🔥😛 this strain is called “video essay on alleged bigfoot descriptions from indigenous oral tradition” 😳 you’ll be zonked out of your gourd 💯
Me: yeah whatever. I don’t feel shit.
5 minutes later: dude I swear I just saw a snake with big feet be called "bigfoot-like"
My buddy TREY the Explainer pacing: Kathy Moskowitz Strain is lying to us

Currently watching The Native Bigfoot by Trey the Explainer and, beyond the fact that claims of a Pan-American tradition of Native Bigfoot stories are wildly exaggerated(i.e: made up by Euros), I think we should consider how this Euro desire to LOOK for shared mythological and religious beliefs is ITSELF a cultural artifact of European history.
Like: with the Interpretatio Graecae, the Romans carrying forward that practice in their OWN religious imperialism, the LONG history of Christian evangelical syncretism with local cult and custom(by this I dont just mean claiming the holy sites, days, and deities of indigenous traditions as secretly Christian, but also the tendency to include local european deities as evil spirits within a christian cosmology); Europeans have a good 2000 years, at LEAST, of this universalizing, ecumenical behavior, and we ought to consider how this Euro impulse to assert commonalities in mythologies and religions may be expressing itself through the mythmaking about "the native bigfoot".

My Youtube playlist
Disability and (Dis)Ableism (systems, vocabulary, voices)
I'm still not fully happy with it. It's still cluttered at the end and there's some longer videos I still need to rewatch. But it's the last day of Disability Pride month! I'm not gonna let perfection come before progress!

One of the best Youtubers ever Trey the Explainer did a face reveal after 10 years!
Delightful channel about paleontology, cryptids, ancient culture, curiosities, prehistoric humans and extinct hominids.
One of his best is on disability in prehistory (19min). Fascinating cases of ancient humans and neanderthals caring for each other. Including one story of a young girl who, telling from her bones, never walked. She had tooth decay and her dwelling was filled with date pits, suggesting she was not only loved and cared for but her family collected and fed her treats.
Also a thorough profile on my favorite ancient wonder, The Colossus of Rhodes (36min).

I fell asleep watch Trey the Explainer videos and let me tell you starting a video about the Archeology Iceberg and waking up to the Imagined Worlds Iceberg video instead really brought my reality into question for a few seconds there.
