There are many, MANY, MANY cryptids. Things we now call mythological creatures were, at one time, believed real in the same way moth man or the flatwoods monster is.

Griffins, sphinxes, minotaur, cyclops, to name a few.

Cyclops famously is thought to come from ancient elephant skull fossils

Modern ones are the results of the same pattern of human thinking, but elevated.

“Trust me bro”

Move to the EU.

If I had my current knowledge, low-level iron forging, agriculture, and architecture (cisterns, wells, deep food storage) and very rudimentary medicine because the wife is obsessed with various herbs that are used to make our modern medicine

If I was starting from scratch, probably just be decent at hunting because I have good hand eye coordination and maybe tracking

Both parents 18. Divorced when I was 8, fought eachother over petty bullshit for years after. I raised my little sister, who was born just 3 years before they separated. Depressed, medicated for anxiety, and have no relationship with any of my family.

Thank you! I try to exercise caution for myself of am I just off put by this or is this truly uncessary behavior, and I’m glad the option to judge for myself is available.
