This isn’t fireworks. It’s a centuries‑old rocket war between rival churches every Easter night. Tens of thousands of homemade rockets are fired toward each other’s bell towers. Originally, they even used real cannons until they were banned in 1889. The 'rocket war' (Rouketopolemos) takes place every Easter in Vrontados, Chios. The tradition dates back to the Ottoman period, with even older roots possible. It all happens at midnight on Holy Saturday, during the Resurrection service. Chios, Greece 🇬🇷 (clip by margarita. in .greece)

During Easter in Romania every single person gathers at midnight outside of a church and takes the flame. The USA can’t fill streets unless it’s gay pride. The UK can’t fill streets unless it’s stab fest carnival. This scene is 2000 years old. Tradition is beautiful.

St George’s church in Yaroun. I am no longer able to safely reach this church. This was shot on Christmas Day. I was able to reach this town and work right up until March 1st. The second video is a destroyed church in Derdghaya. On this Easter weekend, remember that American tax dollars are spent on destroying churches in the Middle East.

This is Jilong Town, approximately 26 km away from the border crossing where the mudslide occurred. 4738 km away from Shanghai. The altitude here is 2600 meters, while the port is at an altitude of 1800 meters. This is a very remote place in China, already located on the southern side of the Himalayas.

First things first, there was never a guard of honor to be given in the first place, it’s never been a tradition in the super copa. Also this is Mbappé signalling to his teammates to get up and get their medals.

Continuing another step mirroring the decline of the Roman Empire, the production of the penny has ended. First they removed silver from the quarters and dimes in 1964, then copper from the penny in 1982. Now the penny is dead. A funeral for the penny was held at the Lincoln Memorial in D.C. on December 20. This event was held to honor the penny after the U.S. Mint discontinued its production. Attendees were encouraged to bring their own pennies to pay their respects. The event included a speech from a descendant of Abraham Lincoln. The event aimed to reflect on the penny's long history and its significance in American culture.
