I don’t think there is ever a great time for humanity to turn our future over to a set of intelligent machines, but I know that doing so while the globe is dominated by an Epstein Class of anti-human fascists is definitely the worst time.

over.

I know, it seems like that, and then you're doing research projects without a full-service academic library, as I do, and the number of times you think "I really have to get to the University of X library" is very high!

Just like the book will never die, radio will never die.

Sorry, I mean set your clocks forward to 53 BCE for the Parthian campaign with Crassus!

And to you as well, David! Time to set your clock back to 499 BCE for the Ionian Revolt!

This spring, we set our clocks back to 499 BCE for the Ionian Revolt against Persian hegemony in Asia Minor.

Talarico gives defiant victory party speech: ‘There is something happening in Texas’

AOC: We already have multiple American service members who are dead for an illegal action that the president has pursued with no plan out. They don’t know why they got into this war. They’re talking about a hundred different reasons, and they don’t know how they’re getting out.

"O nation miserable,
With an untitled tyrant bloody-scepter'd,
When shalt thou see thy wholesome days again"
---Shakespeare, Macbeth.

Thank you, Curtis!

This fortune cookie knows too much!

The picture shows two dolls with movable shoulders, elbows, hips and knee joints. The legs of both dolls are partially broken off. One doll's arm is almost completely missing. The limbs and torso are very long, the breasts small. The faces are largely destroyed. The hair is combed back behind the ears, reaching down to the shoulders at the nape. The ivory, which is actually white, has turned brown over time.

Beloved #toys: a pair of #Roman ivory #dolls with articulated arms and legs found in a tomb of a little #girl from a wealthy family in Emona, Ljubljana/Slovenia.

The majority of the dolls in Roman times were made of less valuable materials such as clay, wood or linen. 🧵1/2

WORD FACT

Greek “dramein” (“to run”) and the related noun “dromos” (“running, racecourse”) ultimately give us:

Hippodrome → A racecourse for chariots (“Hippo-” = horse)

Dromedary → via Greek “dromas kamelos” (“running camel”) and Late Latin “dromedarius”

Indicted. Convicted. In Charge. How Did the World End Up in the Hands of Men Courts Have Already Judged? Three of the most powerful leaders shaping this week’s headlines have one thing in common, and it’s not what you’d expect.

Because law alone was never meant to carry the full weight of justice. People have to care. Communities have to pay attention. And we have to stop normalizing what should never feel normal.

In a courtroom, consequences follow findings. In the wider world, power often outruns accountability entirely. The same legal systems that hold everyday people to account can struggle to reach the people whose decisions cause the greatest harm.

THIS!

This is a frustratingly salient reason why Trump’s first impeachment didn’t have the juice

Maybe we can start a war on Mondays!

Maybe an airstrike?

Today is Alex Pretti's birthday.

Just a little reminder that post policing sucks. No one is the arbiter of what is and is not okay to post or discuss, no matter what is happening in the world.

People are allowed deal with the horrors in their own way, in their own time, without being shamed.
