Negative.

They don’t drill a hole into the skull and leave it permanently. They remove a section of skull to allow the brain to swell without causing damage, then replace it after the emergency is over.

These are the shows your mom likes but coastal elites have never heard of or turn their noses up at.

I had this period in 2010 when I was weirdly addicted to Ice Road Trucker. I still don’t know why. It was just a bunch of men driving trucks.

That was my reaction. I switched to Youtube watching quite some time ago. It’s the Discovery Channel and the History Channel the way they were meant to be. It’s endlessly fascinating and unlike the basic cable networks of old, the creators do not hesitate to really get down into the weeds.

It’s mostly chuds who say that. They don’t like offices and mobile phones and just want to live in some idealized Bronze Age where they would get Stacy and be allowed to kill anyone who makes fun of them for being a virgin.

Yeah, agriculturalists were just a big treasure box for nomads. They had zero compassion for anyone who wasn’t a member of their tribe.

At least, until the farmers got their shit together and started building armies with metal weapons and armor. Then they wrecked the nomads’ shit permanently.

Old people teach children superstition, old wives tales and sexism. There’s a reason schools employ mostly younger people.

People still believe in trepanation even today.

Historically the nomads would raid the farmers and carry off their women and have a good laugh about it. The farmers got angry and got to work. A decade later an army armed with metal armor and weapons marched forth and absolutely wrecked the nomads shit. Today, nomads are total losers who occupy the worst land on the planet. Who’s laughing now, Chad?
