Yeah it would be from Croydon.

Calling it a conspiracy [theory] is a little insane, but this is otherwise downright plausible compared to the pyramid power plant stuff.

I would also say that claiming it is “not an original” suggests that it’s a copy rather than not being the original carving.

ryathal ,

If I drew a mustache on the Mona Lisa I think it’s fair to no longer call it an original.

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Why? Is there an original somewhere else once you do that?

brygphilomena ,

Your artwork would be an original. It’s not an unaltered mona Lisa, but it’s still an original painting.

AmidFuror ,

They're saying the head was replaced. Better phrasing would be that it is not in its original form.

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Re-carved anyway, although I’d like to know what happened to all the original stone. You’d think we’d be able to find it. It’s a lot of stone based on that drawing.

hemko ,

Reused, most likely

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

On what? You can’t just chip stone off a statue and then hope you find a use for it.

hemko ,

You can chop it into smaller blocks to use on something nearby, idk honestly but I’d just assume it’s easier than bringing a new block from quarry

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

At the age they were building pyramids and would have supposedly recarved the Sphinx, they were mostly using very large stone blocks. They only switched to smaller stone blocks in the Amarna period when Akhenaten had them do it to speed up construction. But that was centuries later.

I’m pretty sure that big ole nose would require modern reinforced materials. maybe they tried and failed to make the anubis, but i doubt it would’ve worked very well.

I’m totally with you on this one. I can see the current head being a later replacement.

Although: Anubis had the body of a man, not a lion, so that theory is fucked. If there was a different original head, it was probably something else: a lion, or an eagle, or something; the ancients loved to mix up animal parts in their mythos, so roll a dodecahedron for what it could have been. Not one of the main Egyptian gods, though: those were all human-body, animal-head. Putting one of those on the Sphinx body makes absolutely no sense, and OP^OP^ is a garden-variety moron.

P.S. that silhouette also just looks like a Doberman, which is twice as dumb.

amotio , to insanepeoplefacebook in Sovcit wants to put their children in a private trust.

As an European, I am almost always confused when reading posts like this. Can someone explain what is ucc1 and private trust?

KillerTofu ,

The post appears to be from a “sovereign citizen”. It’s a rabbit hole of crazy where people think that the government is illegitimate and that the government also has private accounts “trusts” in everyone’s name, and something about it being in all capital letters is significant somehow? Then there’s all the arcane beliefs that they don’t have to pay taxes and they call their cars “conveyances” which somehow makes them immune to the laws about license and registration.

I’m not doing it justice, but it is people who think they aren’t subject to any laws and believe there’s a secret rule book that if you follow makes magic happen.

TexasDrunk ,

Everything’s made up and the points don’t matter.

Noodle07 ,

Up until the points are money and you owe it to someone with more power than you

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

As an American, we don’t know either because this SovCit stuff is all gibberish. They believe in magic words.

palebluethought ,

A UCC-1 is a form that acts as kind of a public declaration that you’ve loaned someone money or property and they’re indebted to you. It helps establish the relative priority of creditors in complex financial situations, and serves as a public record of liens on the collateral of loans. Something like that, I’m not an expert.

But it’s just a public record of a debt, basically. That debt has to actually exist, though, for the form to have any meaning. These guys have all convinced each other that just by saying they’re a creditor to the government or whoever via this form, that they can make it come true, and thereby conjure money or ownership rights out of nowhere.

The ignorant like you should go to whatever streaming service has it in their region or whatever store sells the DVD or Blu-Ray and watch it right now because you are missing out on comedy greatness and you are definitely risking your health by not laughing enough.

Speaking as a trans person, I took part in a lot of legal proceedings to legally change my identity and get treatment. So you go registered car, go ahead and get registered. :)

Cats always need a brushing. Even hairless cats. They may not have much hair, but they’ll find a way to shed.

audiomodder , to greentext in Anon notices

Enby who prefers dogs here. I guess I break things?

pennomi ,

I’m sorry, there’s a greentext on the internet that disagrees with you. You are a cat person now.

audiomodder ,

There’s a difference between a cat person and a catperson. I am definitely the latter.
