I don't know a lot about history but i like it alot
tell me history facts please
@boobs_idiot the ancient picts worshipped rivers. each river was a particular deity
@boobs_idiot ehehe it's funny to me tho because scotland's landscape is highly influenced by glacial flows. rivers make V-shaped valleys but glaciers make huge flat bottomed U-shaped valleys and there are way more of those here.
the tops of our mountains have been carved off too, into these blunt nubcaps
@pan oh i think yorkshire is similar in that way, i know that at least some parts of it were made by glaciers
i know that there are a bunch of caves in the yorkshire moors, i wanna go explore one day but also that's extremely scary
@pan WOAH that's cool
and also it makes sense, a giant stream of water that has the power to destroy rocks over time is pretty special
