You’ve survived every single thing life has thrown at you so far. That’s pretty incredible. You can survive this, too.

downside: going to have to include a picture of the Giza pyramids in the slides for the lecture
upside: i get to give people a crash course in why perspective matters in two frames, because

An image of the three pyramids (and three satellite pyramids) on the Giza plateau that looks exactly the same as you've always seen it: Menkaure's smaller pyramid and the three queen's pyramids are in the foreground, with Khafre's pyramid looming behind it. Behind Khafre's pyramid is Khufu's, a.k.a. the Great Pyramid, which looks slightly smaller than Khafre's in this image.ALT

followed by

Another photo of the pyramids of the Giza plateau. This time the pyramids are all shown from the same distance, so that the distance between them is clear as well as their relative size. It's now painfully obvious that Khufu's Great Pyramid on the far right is indeed the largest, with Khafre's in the centre only an increment smaller. Menkaure's pyramid, on the other hand, is less than half the height of Khafre's.ALT

is such a funny sequence

i find most people who haven’t seen it in person don’t know that cairo is RIGHT THERE

I loved these perspectives so I took some of my own when I was in Cairo and yeah, they’re literally just. Right there. Pass em on your way to work, nbd

No, y'all don’t even understand.

There is literally a Pizza Hut across the street from the pyramids.

That Pizza Hut among other things is why Egyptologists laugh their asses off when we see another piece of media where the protagonists get “lost in the desert near the pyramids”, because it’s like… just turn around my dudes you’re only a seven min walk away from the nearest fastfood shop

Yall don’t know how much I adore all of this
