Walking through the savanna-woodland landscape of Boé National Park, Guinea-Bissau, you might encounter a tree covered in gnarled scars, with an accumulation of rocks surrounding its base.

god forbid a man has hobbies
I’ve done dumber shit with my bros and theoretically we have higher order thinking
They’re inventing cricket!
We’ll know for sure when one chimp bites another’s face off for being LBW.
Just me and the homies meeting up to throw rocks at our rock tree.
Journal: being super judgemental for no reason.
Because fuck that specific tree. 🖕
Man FUCK that tree! My homie fell off that tree once, hit his head pretty bad, never been the same so… FUCK that tree!
‘Why do teenagers kick the can down the same lane every year?’
Sounds suspiciously similar to archery, hatchet throwing, knife throwing, and all other target practice hobbies.
But why one specific tree?
How else are they going to compare shots unless they aim at the same target?
Because fuck that tree in particular.
Have you ever followed what Muslims do on the Hadj? They throw stones at three pillars representing Satan. Maybe the monkeys have invented religion?
Pillars? I thought they throw stones to a giant black cube
Nope. That cube is the thing they walk around seven times, but on another day.
And inside the cube is an altar made from an iron-nickel meteorite.
It’s not inside, it is inset into a corner on the outside.
It’s pillars. The cube is what they pray towards.
