I can understand like a rought overview in elementary school textbooks, with more (accurate) details coming in through middle and high school

Speaking of wild misinformation one parent showed off her kid's history book which called the Trail of Tears a willing event

Well I’m sure different writers would write different stuff.

Trail of Tears was a willing event...? *facepalm* Kind of like how people willingly pay protection money to the mafia so they don't get their house burned down, I reckon.

My sister had a history teacher in highschool that taught the California gold rush was caused by Egyptian slaves who dropped their gold in the hills, so everybody tried to go grab it.

Egyptian slaves??? That's new to me

The theory, that is

wow, egyptian slaves. that sounds......a bit far offf lol.

Cut my hair today
Went from down to my butt to maybe three inches long. Only have kitchen scissors so it's hella uneven but tomorrow hopefully dad will help me fix it up with his razor

I think the only time I’ve ever had such long hair was when I was kid. But even then I don’t think it was to my butt.

When I was a kid I had a bob. With bangs

I did that a few years ago. Went from my butt to about an inch or so long. SO LIBERATING. Didn't look good on me, but it was nice having my hair dry quickly after a shower instead of a few hours later. I'm letting it grow back out and will probably stop around my shoulderblades. It's just past my shoulders now and already bringing back the neck problems.

Yeah the best part of short hair is that you don’t have to dry your hair that long lol. That and less shampoo lol.
