This could also explain some things: Atlantis legends, Puma Punku (looks like something broke apart there), the flipping of the magnetic poles (hasn't happened on the usual schedule according to the ice cores), the strange way the Giza pyramids are constructed, and Piri Reis map showing Antarctica without the ice.

This is utter nonsense. If you do a little research into Egyptology you'd find that there is a well-documented architectural progression from "mastaba" tombs in Egypt (stone walls with a roof), through the "step pyramid" at Saqqara, through to the "true" pyramids at Gisa (and elsewhere), included failed experiments in pyramid building, such as the "bent pyramid".

For some reason people always picture massive amounts of slave workers putting all these stone structures in place

No, again this is untrue. Slaves had nothing to do with the construction of the pyramids - in fact slavery was basically unknown in Egypt at the time. You had an agricultural workforce who had nothing to do after the annual inundation (flooding) of the Nile. Essentially limitless manpower available for state construction projects. All this is well documented. The workers' villages around the pyramids have been extensively excavated.
