Historians pretty much agree that Jesus was a historical figure, even though heavily fictionalised.

Indeed. The headcanon part is the whole hijacking part.
Truth be told, it makes perfect sense for religions as a whole following some type of evolutionary path and that a religion that actively tries to eliminate other faith would be one to eventually gain dominance. I’m more surprised that it seems to have happened fairly late and perhaps just once? There’s probably others similar to the judeo-christian tradition that ended up falling short of their conquest, but still.
My headcanon is that the Old Testament was a god specifically of the Jews and some upstart god took over (possibly after murdering him) in the New Testament days and then proceeded to spread his influence to non-jewish people while aggressively eliminating any opposition. Wherease in the old days people believed in various gods, this one started of campaign of montheism, depriving the rest of them of faith and eliminating them one by one. Nowadays he’s kicking and screaming because the rise of atheism in many parts of the world which used to be his strongold is depriving him of energy and thus he finally faces annihilation.
Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.

Because of the implication.
I’m pretty sure cookie clicker has no victory condition, it just goes on and on. At least it was that way last time I played it. Things might have changed since.
An interesting trait that moles share with sharks.
This reminds me of an exhibiton I once saw called “No Pain, No Game”. The idea being that any sort of game has some failure state, some obstacle to overcome, that’s what makes it a game. So of course I started thinking of counter-examples. Your slot machine idea is a good one, what I eventually came up with is Cookie Clicker. That game is nothing but positive reinforcement. There’s no way to lose progress or mess anything up, any action you take makes you “win more”. Not taking an action also makes you “win more”, just more slowly.
This showerthought is an idea adjacent to that all. Interesting stuff, even though it’s not too deep.
Now I’m wondering how you draw a girl with 5 text-to-speech (tts) programs.
TBF, the ancient Egyptians would probably also not understand that.
The linked comment offers three options and I bet it’s right:
Warning that this topic draws a lot of insane people with genital mutilation fetishes. Any of the comments advocating for circumcision are either men who were circumcised against their will, women who circumcised their children and haven’t accepted the truth, or weirdos who want others to suffer.
Oh, no! Not the rich dickheads!
Nope, this was real.
Source? Some of these were real, but there’s also a ton of fake bullshit floating around.
Yup. I know a bit of German, but that doesn’t help with the buffalos at all.
Not really, we’re eukaryotes. We share a common (unknown) ancestor, but bacteria split off into their own monophyletic group I’m pretty sure.
Everybody knows asteroids always fall into craters, so it was just a matter of putting the centre next to the crater so it wasn’t hit.
