I don't know about Churchill, but Teddy was born a sickly kid with asthma. He decided that shit wasn't going to hold him back and that he was going to overcome it all through sheer will. He hunted,boxed, and did a whole bunch of shit. Granted though, being a Roosevelt he was rich as fuck and his family's money allowed him to do pretty much anything he wanted

I can believe you do, only kids at Ivy's make such purposely stupid jokes that attempt to continually draw everyone else's attention to the fact they attend an Ivy

Well up here in the Great White North your average normie has never even heard his name and your above average "I'm a fan of history" normie is aware of his existence only.

Roosevelts the Chad which fights off the other Chads to protect the betas because he cares about them.

You are born a Chad, you don't become one.

Mark Antony in HBO's Rome is the definition of a Chad

How does one become Brad?

Who are Brads in history?
Any books on Brads in History?

>>3278713
brads are basically tryhard chads. you enter bradmode by having decent to good genetics but are unable to master the social graces of chad so you feel insecure and lash out at betas to make yourself feel better you still get laid regularly but usually only with 7/10s plus the occasional stacey who is just using you to pass the time until she can upgrade to chad. henry clay and john c calhoun would be good examples of historical brads. hitler would be the perfect brad were it not for his low tier genetics.

>>3279993
what? clay was a team player though. calhoun was a beta sperg obsessed with slavery as positive good. both were not nothing great to look at going off the photos of them desu

>>3280061
i picked them because they were relatively powerful men yet were never top-tier and were overshadowed by more chadly individuals such as andrew jackson

>>3279993
how do you get the social graces of chad?

would reading the biographies of chad help in this area?

>>3280158
irl practice and no reading books will not help you

>>3280167
what exactly does irl practice consist of? talking and partying with normies?

is that how teddy became so charismatic despite being a manlet?

>>3280189
teddy went to go hunt buffalo in north dakota and that is what hardened him up but ya talking with people would be good start

>>3280210
what would be the modern day equivalent of hunting buffalo? or should I try to do that as well?

sorry for being an autist :(

He also was a literal coward and a traitor.

John Muir

>John Muir
>literaly who.
fuck you, it's not our faults you have no clue about history. this guy was responsible for conserving millions of acres of western american land from development so that it's still pristine today. He wrote about his western excursions and this photo shoot is, i think, when he convinced teddy to come out west to convince him that the nation's natural history was at stake. They camped out in Yosemite and Teddy already a big guy on conservation signed on to preserving vast amounts of land. Of course, this was a good PR opportunity because teddy never shied away from his macho, outdoorsman image.

>>3282118
that artist killed people in sword duels and he brags about it and also how many women hes fucked. he is chad as fuck

can anyone recommend me a book on George Washington?
I started reading pic related, but then I got to the part where God reached down and pushed the bullets away from George during the battle for Fort Necessity, and then went on an aside to tell the story of how a Native chef went out of their way to tell George about a prophecy that said a great builder of nations would come
not saying that the book doesn't have real facts in it, but it also seems to be taking liberties with the truth

>>3288252
George Washington is not a chad lmao
Never even had kids

as >>3291108 showed, he is fucking worshipped when people remembered him and they taught him more in school. PLUS if you live in the west or look at a US map even if you don't know about him, most of those huge areas in the West set off for nature preserves are his legacy.

>rode a fucking avalanche
Few mountaineers go far enough, during the snowy months, to see many avalanches, and fewer still know the thrilling exhilaration of riding on them. In all my wild mountaineering I have enjoyed only one avalanche ride; and the start was so sudden, and the end came so soon, I thought but little of the danger that goes with this sort of travel, though one thinks fast at such times. One calm, bright morning in Yosemite, after a hearty storm had given three or four feet of fresh snow to the mountains, being eager to see as many avalanches as possible, and gain wide views of the peaks and forests arrayed in their new robes, before the sunshine had time to change or rearrange them, I set out early to climb by a side cañon to the top of a commanding ridge a little over three thousand feet above the valley. On account of the looseness of the snow that blocked the cañon I knew the climb would be trying, and estimated it might require three or four hours. But it proved far more difficult than I had foreseen. Most of the way I sank waist-deep, in some places almost out of sight; and after spending the day to within half an hour of sundown in this loose, baffling snow work, I was still several hundred feet below the summit. Then my hopes were reduced to getting up in time for the sunset, and a quick, sparkling home-going beneath the stars. But I was not to get top views of any sort that day; for deep trampling near the cañon head; where the snow was strained, started an avalanche, and I was swished back down to the foot of the cañon as if by enchantment. The plodding, wallowing ascent of about a mile had taken all day, the undoing descent perhaps a minute. When the snow suddenly gave way, I instinctively threw myself on my back and spread my arms, to try to keep from sinking.

>>3291238
Fortunately, though the grade of the cañon was steep, it was not interrupted by step levels or precipices big enough to cause outbounding or free plunging. On no part of the rush was I buried. I was only moderately imbedded on the surface or a little below it, and covered with a hissing back-streaming veil of dusty snow particles; and as the whole mass beneath or about me joined in the flight I felt no friction, though tossed here and there, and lurched from side to side. And when the torrent swedged and came to rest, I found myself on the top of the crumpled pile, without a single bruise or scar. Hawthorne says that stream has spiritualized travel, notwithstanding the smoke, friction, smells, and clatter of boat and rail riding. This flight in a milky way of snow flowers was the most spiritual of all my travels; and, after many years, the mere thought of it is still an exhilaration.
