20 Of The Worst, Biggest Screw-Ups Of Human History
Recently, a post from a now-deleted Reddit account on the popular Ask Reddit page caught my attention. The post asked, "What's been the biggest fuck-up in the history of humans?" and naturally, I had to share. Here are some of the most on-the-money answers: "Putting screens in the hands of toddlers." "The US government planting kudzu in the 1930s (as a make-work project) all over the southern US to combat erosion. The vine has swallowed up entire forests." "The Khwarazmian Empire, while never quite a world player, was still a considerably-sized nation of the ancient world. Never heard of it? There's a reason why..." "In 1218, a party of Mongolian emissaries was sent by Genghis Khan to open possible trade routes. The local governor, who was the uncle of the Khwarazmian Shah Muhammad II, had the party arrested. He apparently suspected it was a trap, though it appears to have been a genuine gesture of trade negotiation. We'll call this arrest 'Fuck-up #1.'Displaying an unusual amount of patience for a man of his reputation, Genghis then sent three ambassadors to try and diplomatically resolve the situation. Shah Muhammad II refused to punish his dear old uncle for his actions, and instead decided to execute at least one of the Mongolian ambassadors, or possibly all three. He sent the severed head of one ambassador back to Genghis Khan as a lovely little parting gift, which was 'Fuck-up #2.' "There was no 'Fuck-up #3,' for Genghis then decided that the 'fucking around' phase was over for the Khwarazmians, and the time of 'finding out' had begun." "On this note, one of the biggest policy fuck-ups is the Mongol policy of having to return back to Mongolia to elect a new khan after the death of the old one. This single policy outright halted many of their major campaigns and subsequently saved much of Europe and Asia from the all-conquering Mongol armies." "Microplastics are going to be the lead of this decade." "Adding lead to gasoline." "I mean, Japan attacking Pearl Harbor can be on this list too. It set off a series of fuck-ups." "When Noah allowed those two mosquitoes on the ark. I mean, seriously, dude???" "The invention and widespread use of plastics." "In terms of death attributable to a single individual? Lysenko and his agricultural reforms." "This is what happens when you appoint an unqualified political loyalist instead of a real expert. Lysenko's only real skill was sucking up to the party. RFK Jr. is this generation's Lysenko." "Prince Arthur Tudor dying shortly after his marriage to Catherine of Aragon, and leaving Henry to replace him as heir to the English throne." "It will be AI." "Turning Hitler away from art school." "Despite the fact that I am using the internet, I'm going to make a case that the internet is our biggest fuck-up." "Not decarbonizing in time to prevent catastrophic global warming. We're heading full throttle for the cliff right now, with no brakes." "Plastic. Social media. Nuclear bombs." "Using PFAS in almost everything through the '90s. Thanks, now the world is contaminated and everyone is getting cancer." "The moment our species decided that we could turn healthcare into a for-profit business, I think, will turn out to be one of the most epically stupid and relentlessly human things we have ever collectively thought up." "When Benito Mussolini declared war on the Allies, over 40% of Italy's naval warships were in foreign ports. Upon declaring war, they were seized immediately by the foreign countries they resided in." "The last season of Game of Thrones." And a final thought to leave you with: "We probably don't know about it." So, what do you think of these? Were any big screw-ups left out? Let me know down in the comments!

'I need a break': Country star taking time to ‘figure out what's next'
Kelsea Ballerini is manifesting a chill summer. After wrapping up her first arena tour and finishing her first season as a judge on 'The Voice,' the country music star wants to take some time to relax and regroup. 'I need a break, and I've never been able to say that before, but I really think that it's time for me to just pump the brakes, figure out what's next, take the time to just have a summer,' Ballerini said during her recent interview on 'Today with Jenna and Friends.' 'Every time I say I have time off, something happens,' the platinum-selling singer joked. 'But I'm very open to whatever is out there.' Ballerini hopes her summer itinerary includes going to the beach, learning to cook a new meal and spending time with her dogs, Dibs and Milo. Aside from a performance this Friday at the CMA Fest, Ballerini doesn't appear to have any upcoming performances or appearances scheduled, according to her website. This year has been a particularly eventful year for the 'Peter Pan' singer. Her tour, which ran from January to April, supported her fifth studio album, 'Patterns,' which she released in October. In March, Ballerini released a deluxe edition of 'Patterns,' which featured five additional songs. She also signed on for her first season as a judge on 'The Voice,' which wrapped last month. During her 'Today' appearance, she explained that it was a completely different experience than what she was used to. 'It's been such a beautiful season of doing things that are out of my comfort zone and bigger than I've ever done, and it's been really fulfilling. I love being in that seat,' she said. As for whether she'd ever return to 'The Voice,' Ballerini said, 'Never say never. I think it's all about timing.'
