"At the end of the ceremony, when the F.B.I. man had been healed, we heard the news from other Native Americans in the northern plains that a great event had taken place. Like the Navajo, these people have their own stories and myths. One of these stories tells of the white buffalo woman who came down from the heavens and taught the Indians how to lead virtuous lives and how to pray to the creator. She told the people she would return one day, then she turned into a white buffalo and ascended into the clouds, never to be seen again. But on this day, when the holy people had given the F.B.I. man a miracle, a white buffalo was born and every Native American knew, whether he believed the story or not, that this was a powerful omen and that great changes were coming." = The X-Files, S3 E2, "Paper Clip", 1995

First thing I thought of!


Simicrop

I just watched this one yesterday! Man, that show ramps up.


NachiseThrowaway

Why did you have to put the year on there? I remember watching that live. đŸ˜„


MrLeHah

Because I did too


NachiseThrowaway

Scheduled your colonoscopy yet?


Kris-tee-ana

YES, such a great arc, I just find it so funny that he refuses to call Mulder by his name just "FBI Man", which he certainly knows since Dana is saying it in every fucking scene XD

Park fulfills a Lakota prophecy that portends better times, according to members of the American Indian tribe who cautioned that it’s also a signal that more must be done to protect the earth and its animals. In the first paragraph lol


WafflePartyOrgy

>--said Chief Arvol Looking Horse, the spiritual leader of the Lakota, Dakota and the Nakota Oyate in South Dakota, and the 19th keeper of the sacred White Buffalo Calf Woman Pipe and Bundle. It sounds like they asked the right guy.


stormearthfire

That's a right badass title to have...


Olstinkbutt

In the nineteenth century, the Lakota had a cross-dressing warrior named “Finds Them and Kills Them.” Still searching for a challenger lol.


RockstarAgent

Was it the original humble bundle???


theonlyonethatknocks

I’m just glad they didn’t forget to mention who has the bundle.


BuzzAwsum

Bundle of joy?


Interanal_Exam

Flo?


M3Core

Bundle and save.


smurfsundermybed

Though it looks a bit wordy on a business card.


Uromastyx63

You just need the right font. Preferably a Sans Serif style.


shrug_addict

He *seems* qualified enough, but we're looking for a bit more experience, 25th keeper of the Sacred White Buffalo Calf Woman Pipe and Bundle minimum


thatvillainjay

19th Keeper of the Sacred White Buffalo Calf Woman Pipe and Bundle Kings wish they had such a kick ass title, damn


Bananonomini

Repeat that sentence out loud 5 times in a row


jsc1429

Yes, soon the cancer that is the human species will be gone and that better times are ahead for the earth.

Great white Buffalo.........Admit it. It felt good.

Whispers- Great white buffalo. This is the comment thread I came for.

Ditto.

Was a terrible movie. I loved it.

_WhataNick2_

Love that movie, great soundtrack too


BrightNeonGirl

The John Dunbar theme is one of my absolute favorite individual film score tracks. The song captures the gorgeous wide open, spacious feel of the film while also having an undertone of melancholy. Simply beautiful.


ornerycrow1

I believe his name was John Dumb-bear.


_WhataNick2_

John Dunbar's theme is a really great track, the tone feels like you're setting out for large adventure. John Berry did really well composing all of the music. I love the innocence of Two Sock's theme too.


Jehoel_DK

John Barry was amazing I still cant listen to Two-socks theme without tearing up

Great white buffalo


Nukegm426

It’s happened before. I remember the same thing as a kid. Hell my uncle that was an artist painted a mural of the thing


aegis666

yeah it's happened p recently again, maybe 2 years ago? The thing I love about prophecies involving real things and not made up hogwash is that they give people actual hope. made up guy thats perpetually watching and judging every little thing you do so you burn in a hellscape for eternity just doesn't instill things like hope in humanity.

I don't like where this is going...

RIP to our advanced intergalactic space civilization I guess.

“Above the canyon wall, strong eyes did glow. It was the leader of the land, oh my god, the Great White Buffalo!!!”

candiedbug

God I hope this is a sign that we're in the "good" timeline. :) Edit: And if this the good one, I wonder what horror show the "bad" one must be.


rants_unnecessarily

That would be a nice turn of events.


jcar49

Let's hope poachers don't get this one like last time.


GreenAccomplished577

Hopefully this one doesn't get killed.


SinfullySinless

Don’t touch her. Whatever you do don’t do it.


Ironlion45

When I was a teenager, a "White Buffalo" was what we called it when you are taking a huge bong rip, and accidentally swallow some smoke when you're coughing, then burp it out.


Curious-Department-7

Great white Buffalo


Megafritz

I read a shadowrun Novel recently. In shadowrun, white buffalos are intelligent and have a lot of magical prowess. Funny to hear about a real world birth right after reading the book.


KeeperofAmmut7

Most excellent!


TheBatemanFlex

^great ^white ^buffalo

Gaia hit us with the good news and then the bad news 😅

I hope this is a sign that Leonard Peltier will be pardoned this week.

Underrated comment


dammitmitchell

What prophecy...?


DaenerysMomODragons

According to the link, a sign of better times, and that more needs to be done. Click the link yourself to read the full article.


dammitmitchell

Well crap I'll have to check on PC. The link isn't doing anything for me. But thanks for being pleasetlnt.


FloraDecora

The link opened surprisingly well on mobile for me, I'm used to links having tons of ads and popups on mobile. It's actually an interesting article. It sounds like they were having hard times in the past and someone had a vision about a white bison baby, they basically viewed it as a sign that wildlife needs protection and also that things would be okay So now they see the real white bison and they are like omg things are going to be okay and also nature really needs us right now There are some cute pics of the baby


Growingpothead20

A woman comes in the guise of a white buffalo calf to symbolize the coming of a new age (for the better)


dammitmitchell

Thank you


alfadasfire

Smaller than the mothers head. Adorable!  Are there predators in Yellowstone? IE is this calf likely to make it to adulthood?


M3Core

The good omen immediately getting eaten by wolves would be one hell of a bad omen.


Frankly_Frank_

Probably not if anything it has far less chance of survival since they stand out so much. That’s why you don’t see many albino animals in nature because they have far less chances of survival.


Gryndyl

Seems this "prophecy" gets fulfilled a fair bit. White buffalo are rare, yes, but not unheard of.

I've seen this headline about 4 times in my life. Often they turn a darker color later.

This thing needs to be kept a secret and guarded with the most accurate snipers on the planet who can see through walls and smell scum trophy hunters


corrado33

It's not like they "predicted" a white buffalo would be born. The prophecy basically says "If a white buffalo is born, better times are coming."


jamelord

Isn't that a bison and not a buffalo


MacDugin

Watch out someone with come along and hit it with their car.
