Mythology or history?

I was told the translation of this yesterday and apparently there’s this serpent-like dragon / beast (maybe similar to Babylonian stories of evil beasts?) and he is terrorizing the people of Tigray in this image.

They get a “concoction” and trick the beast into eating it to defeat him. The one who defeats the beast is allegedly the started of the Solomonic dynasty (could be wrong on that part? anyone who can read this please correct me).

Does anyone know of any anecdotal or other stories regarding such a beast?

Laptop reset

Hello everyone, I did a laptop reset on my HP windows 10 laptop and I chose the option to keep my personal files. All my personal files were saved except for ONE folder saved in my PC. There was one .txt document saved there. I *thought* I had it saved on a flash drive, but I thought wrong. Since I clicked the option to have my personal files saved, I thought that would mean that the .txt file would not be deleted.

Is there any way that I can recover it? I have no way of accessing that file anywhere else, and I checked the recycling bin as well.

Any help would be greatly greatly greatly appreciated.

Ged match and illustrative dna

Can I download my raw data files I uploaded to either of these websites? I accidentally lost my saved raw data files on my laptop but I submitted it to both these websites already. Will either allow me to download and retrieve my raw data?

Parasite cleanse

Just ordered some capsules for a parasite cleanse and binder capsules to go with it. I plan on either doing a water or fruit fast while taking the capsules.

Question- for the binder, when should I take it? Immediately after the parasite capsules or hours later? I’ve been trying to find specific answers online with no success.

Also, is 10 days on, 5 days off, 10 days on again a good idea for detoxing?

Thank you

Tigrinya

Where *specifically* in Ethiopia is Tigrinya still widely spoken, and people grow up speaking it as their first or second language? Not just “Tigray region” for example but specific names of places where one might expect someone to speak Tigrinya. I’m asking about specific towns and cities.

Also, are there any places in *Wollo* area where Tigrinya is commonly spoken, or was until recent years?

I’ve been told by an habesha grandmother that it has a “biblical” and “regular” meaning, the biblical meaning being the Amharic/Tigrinya word for the Hebrew word “Nazarite” meaning set apart by God/chosen by God/dedicated to God, and the regular/worldly meaning being “the new millennium.”

Is this accurate?

He's 16. He's been having some issues at home, which I can't deny, sounds worrisome.

But he adores me and my siblings. None of us are Black. I've been thinking about taking him to a Black church and going to African restaurants. Though he's a picky eater in general, so I'm not sure about the restaurants.

His parents are religious and trust me. Would it be ok to go to a Black church with him? I think he could use a Black community.

He has tried to die from suicide, and I want to do what I can to support him. His brother, not adopted, is his best friend. But said brother is moving for college, and I suspect he's acting out even more because he's worried about not having that support.

I am currently learning the Ge’ez alphabet and something I notice in the workbooks I have and the online characters are that the alphabets in the book look different from the alphabets written out by someone’s actual handwriting.

Can someone write in their *actual* handwriting all the Ge’ez handwriting? In their clearest, most presentable handwriting? For some reason, when I see someone’s alphabets written out, it looks different from the ones in my workbook and online. I’m confused on which one I should actually teach myself.

Here are three pictures of examples I have written so far, are they correct in handwriting or is there another way to write them? I don’t want to memorize the wrong thing, it’s already taking time as it is.
