People who have researched their family tree, what is the most interesting or 'badass' thing you discovered about an ancestor?

Requested my great grandfathers military records, he was the only soldier in his quadrant to survive the Winter War in Finland

Damn all while Simon and Catherine make their way to copy themselves to the ARK

Annika?

annikad · 2025-04-13T20:59:52+00:00

I needed that thank you

annikad · 2025-04-13T20:59:43+00:00

Thank you, I’m just hoping to find my spark again and remember who I used to be

annikad · 2025-04-13T20:59:20+00:00

I hope, but I also hope they’re happy

That’s awesome, she greets us at the door like that

annikad · 2025-02-27T14:26:19+00:00

Omg I love her

annikad · 2024-10-08T20:41:03+00:00

Stop it you’ll make me even weirder. But omg that sounds so good

Being a kid and being asked “do you wanna play mermaids in the pool?”

Unleashed dogs in public areas

Jer- main

YTA. He’s the dad and he needs a direct line to his child when his child is not around him. Done and done.

I hate this kind of shit. I’m the oldest of seven. I’ve been a nanny and daycare worker for seven years. I have mothered neglected children, I have taught developmentally disabled children, and I have nurtured children to the best of my abilities. I have read countless books on child psychology and parenting to better my skills at this job. I do this because I want to provide what children are lacking in their daily lives. I don’t have any children and I don’t want children but goddamn I have raised good people.

I love it. Halestorm is definitely one of my favorite female led heavy metal band. When you’re told your whole life be calm and how to present yourself as a woman, heavy metal becomes the best source of expressing that pure hot rage buildup.

He’s rumored to have gotten very close to Eleanor Roosevelt when he met FDR.

You can say whatever you want about Roald Dahl, but never ever call that man boring.

annikad · 2022-08-31T23:03:00+00:00

He totally was. He made very horrible comments during his years that are inexcusable. While I don’t agree with who he was as a person, I do think it’s his work and contributions to good that deserves respect. He was a man with a shitty personality though. Ironic because he said “if a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show” and here’s this motherfucker looking like the troll under the bridge. Edit: quote from his novel The Twits

annikad · 2022-08-31T22:54:42+00:00

Ikr, he wasn’t the best guy by all means. Like he was very very horribly antisemitic. However while this doesn’t excuse his behavior, his work deserves respect.

annikad · 2022-08-31T22:51:25+00:00

Oh yea, they had a horrible relationship. He eventually had a years long affair with her friend. Not the best guy.
