Battle of Little Bighorn (1876) - Novo General Megathread for the 25th of June to 2nd of July 2026
(hexbear.net)
Death of Custer, scene by Pawnee Bill's Wild West Show performers c. 1905 of Sitting Bull's stabbing Custer, with dead Native Americans lying on ground
On June 25, 1876, at the Battle of the Greasy Grass (Battle of Little Big Horn) Lakota, Arikara, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho defended Sioux and Cheyenne families living in south central Montana in a battle with the Seventh Regiment of the United States Cavalry.
As explained in An Indigenous Peoplesβ History of the United States for Young People by Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, adapted by Debbie Reese and Jean Mendoza:
In June 1876, a large encampment of nontreaty Sioux and Cheyenne families was gathered along the Little Bighorn River. Later that month, Custer and the Seventh Cavalry prepared to attack the encampment, but warriors led by Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull successfully intercepted them. Most textbooks call this the Battle of the Little Bighorn, but Lakota and Cheyenne people, especially those whose ancestors defended the encampment villages, know it as the Battle of the Greasy Grass.
Sioux chief Sitting Bull and Lakota leader Crazy Horse directed their warriors against Lieutenant George Armstrong Custerβs regiment of over 225 cavalry men near the Little Bighorn River. Custer and his men died in the battle, and the united tribes claimed victory over the U.S. military that week.
But the victory against the United States was short-lived. Crazy Horse died in 1877 in U.S. military custody, as that government worked steadily to disarm the nations of the western plains and force their people onto reservations. Sitting Bull lived another 14 years and was murdered at the Standing Rock Indian Reservation by an Indian Agent. He was targeted for his political power and his participation in the anti-imperialist spiritual movement, Ghost Dance.
Marble markers for the Seventh Cavalry were erected in 1890, but it was not until Memorial Day of 1999 that red granite markers were added to the historic site to honor the memory of the Lakota, Sioux, Arikara, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho who died the week of the Battle of Greasy Grass.

Going through the time machine and killing Frank Miller on 9/10/2001 then coming back to see they built statues of him in front of every comics store
Anyone who refers to people outside their professional mileau as "Civilians" or worse yet "Muggles" should be burned at the stake.

Just finished it and can definitively say that East of Eden was a life changing book for me.
Good anime has people smoking cigarettes.
Itβs just a fact 
the really fucking annoying thing about being an ex-smoker is that smoking a cig does actually make you look sexy and cool
and as a nonsmoker, i felt cooler standing next to someone who was
Can you imagine Cowboy Bebop if everyone vaped instead?
Spike Spiegel taking a hit of his fruit punch vape after doing some tai chi just doesn't have the juice.
I really do come off as the most pro-smoker nonsmoker you have ever met
I didnt soak my beans, and instead pressure cooked them for 50 min, slow release for 20min, and the beans turned out uncooked in the center. smh.
Tragic
Boomer father talking over me about a problem I'm currently trying to solve and he knows literally nothing about. Will not shut the fuck up, ever. If he helped, especially via payment, then it'd be tolerable. But some fucknut who's like "yeah, you wanna' spend more money and time travel to make it not happen in the first place" really fucking helpful, mouthbreather. Can't help but insert himself into other people's problems to flatter himself.
This is what the white house is trying to hide from you
I found crazy audio quality for 40β¬!!!!
The Chinese brand Samson makes the SR950 studio monitor-type headphones and I've found them on Ali for about 40β¬. They feature (according to the datasheet) a quite flat spectrum response.
Using PeqDB (free online tool) to equalize them to my taste using a sample song I love and know well, I got them sounding pretty much exactly how I want them to sound (had to boost the bass and the highs). Then using PEACE on Windows I could equalize the whole computer sounds with the exported data from PeqDB and now I have fucking gorgeous sound quality IMO for just 40β¬!
The bridget plushies will continue to be mass produced until morale improves
The Golgi Apparatus is the worst named part of the cell. That should be the name of a pulp sci fi book from the 50s, not a body part.
That should be the name of a pulp sci fi book
80's spy thriller more likely.
write the book you want to see in the world
Is Mamdani the first gooner mayor in America?
Mamdani hasn't gooned a week in his life.
If he does, it's during a trip away from his wife, while thinking only of her.
This is Adams Erasure
Among all the internet existing, we forget about Tumblr. How are they doing anyway?
I still use Tumblr. Short story from my own experience is that it very much sucks but with a very lib-slanted paint-job. Staff makes no effort to hide that it regularly targets POC and trans bloggers. There are alot of prominent Zionist bloggers still on there, and the few leftists you might find on there unfortunately engages in a lot of ugly clique bullying which can range from understandable (sometime a take is geniunely bad) to overblown and needlessly cruel in response.
Oh and yeah, alot of smug and condescending libs in between all of this.
Same as it ever was
That guy who plays the bear or the bear's publicist used his Facebook account to heart emoji me cause I accidentally commented on a sponsored thing about how as a cook I have never watched the show but hate it and its fans
It's been a strange past few years, hasn't it? I miss you all.
I have foind the perfect bass tone. The trick is to down tune until the tuner stops working, chorus pedal, distortion pedal. Soinds like buildings falling over. You will have to find notes yourself, they are there but so is the sound of the apocalypse if you play anything but the high end of the high strings. Did a sick collab with my pal that I will post as soon as he sends it in a way I can download. He can talk your ear ofd about a synth but cant use soundgasm. There is a full super soft sounding bit in their where during our improvement we decided to do borderline folk via synth bass and a lot of pedals. Still sounded good. Tune way too low, its cool
Bit idea: hardcore band called Youth of Tomorrow and all the members are only straightedege cause they're pregnant
the storage medium proven to hold retrievable data longer than any other is a clay tablet.
The oldest known document, and itβs a complaint tho
Clay tablets are super meh as long storage. They used unfired clay primarily because it could be erased and rewritten, most surviving clay tablets happened to get fired in accidental fires. We have significantly older carved stones and even paintings in cave walls.
it is june 28 and stalin saved the world from fascism
A plasma donation center is opening near me. Soon, I can sell my body for beer money.
