Map of central and eastern Europe, annotated with locations and images of wooden beams and pillars carved with faces, stretching from eastern Germany to western Russia.
Which of these early medieval funky faces captures your #FridayFeeling?
Spread from modern Germany to Russia, they suggest a shared artistic and spiritual tradition across Slavic central and eastern Europe during the Early Middle Ages.

Artis Svece | Timotijs un Dalila
Pasniedzējam, kurš strādā ar studentiem šobrīd, ir jāiegaumē, ka reti kuru atsauci uz Rietumu kultūras klasiku var uzskatīt par pašsaprotamu.
Latvian philosopher Artis Svece has written a very thought-provoking essay on Chalamet and ballet. Of course, the essay is about something more than this quite bizzare scandal. What to do with Classics today? Is the common knowledge of culture lost?

Good thing some US colleges are closing their Religious Studies departments—definitively not “useful” at all or an area of expertise that might be relevant for understanding our present…

It’s not science fiction that makes us nervous about of autonomous weapons platforms breaking free of human command- it’s history.
Control of warriors has been an unending struggle.
The founding myth of the English is of mercenaries who topple a kingdom.

Man bija tieši šis jautājums, kāpēc ir sižets par random cilvēku, kurš sarakstījies ar Epstīnu, kas sagadīšanās pēc ir latvietis. Provinciāla pieeja - redz, arī te ir latvietis.

Vai nu lapas apakšā, vai arī pēc teksta. Maksimāli vienkārši. Akadēmisks teksts ir darba instruments.

esmu ar Muraško bārā stundu diskutējis par veidu kā viņš kārto atsauces. Man tas šķiet neveiksmīgs un akadēmiskiem tekstiem nederīgs, bet jā, let's agree to disagree...

es uzreiz ietu ieņemt Sāmsalu. Galu galā Sāmsala kopā ar Pilteni (veco Kurzemes bīskapiju) 16. gs. vidū piederēja Johanam Minhauzenam un tad Dāņu princim Magnusam. Mums Sāmsala ir nepieciešama nacionālajai drošībai. Pārāk ilgi (astoņus gadsimtus vismaz) tā ir bijusi mums drauds.

Trump Announces New European Tariffs in Greenland Standoff; Allies Outraged
NYT will sanewash the Trump administration into authoritarianism. Obviously, this is not a "standoff", it is a shakedown.
Also, any European politicians who still thinks the current U.S. is an "ally" is delusional and incompetent. The Trump administration is an adversary at best, an enemy at worst.

Are you writing about #Greenland and looking for expertise on the tense geopolitical situation? (unless you trust US AI chatbots to do the trick, of course 🙃)

Time to stop writing articles about the "security" or "economic" reasons to capture Greenland, they are irrelevant

un Broks saka, ka Saeimas deputātam ir jānāk vienreiz nedēļā, jāiedziļinās un jānobalso... viņš nav dzirdējis par darbu Saeimas komisijās un tikšanos ar vēlētājiem...
