Just another Ph.D teaching students how relevant the Roman Empire still is, often in Latin (history rhymes in awful ways). Pseudonym b/c I am contract faculty. Very glad to be (re)connecting with friends here!

Remember when @govpritzker.illinois.gov said the pigs wouldn’t assist the Wild Boars? I do
“Pain Compliance Techniques.”
Yet another variety of cop has arrived—NIPAS/assorted suburban Illinois cops from various departments recruited for riot control.

ISP just gave another warning, ordering protesters to disperse or potentially face chemical weapons or "pain compliance techniques."

Disney is saddened at the passing of Brianna Wu. A wake is to be held on Sunday. The casket will remain closed unless the leopard poops out enough salvagable tissue.

I couldn’t forgive him or like him, but I saw that what he had done was, to him, entirely justified. It was all very careless and confused. They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back
More Insta snaps from the let them eat cake ball at Mar a Lago
Why do I feel like all the guests in this photo came to the party as Ghielaine Maxwell?

Does anyone else see it?

I mean, I guess it is a great META-example of why education is so important.

B/c, as someone pointed out last night here on bsky, people who throw Great Gatsby parties have either never read OR did not understand The Great Gatsby.

Good Liberal Arts teachers prevent celebrations of doom parties?

DEI is the new "Thanks, Obama"
I’m not paying enough attention, but it feels like Leo has gone back to enough traditional pomp in his personal presentation to feel more traditional without going full Benedict? I guess the shoes would be the true test—didn’t Benedict go bespoke? Thinking about Livia weaving for Augustus now, lol.
Are they, uh, practicing for later when they get home?

Seriously, that’s some bathroom sex with clothes on. Not my kink, but I have nothing against same sex love.
Since I’m allowed, as a viewer, to interpret their published “art” as I see it: “Bathroom Rendezvous (with hidden strap-on).”

Jules: Bangin' a dude, and givin' a dude a hug with hairplay ain't even the same fuckin' thing.

Vincent: It's the same ballpark.

Jules: Ain't no fuckin' ballpark neither, ain't even the same sport.

Vincent: Your wife let you give a lady friend that kinda hug?

Jules:

"But Her Emails" he cried softly
What the actual f*ck?!!!

“Members of Trump’s National Security Council, including White House national security adviser Michael Waltz, have conducted government business over personal Gmail accounts, according to documents reviewed by The Washington Post and interviews with three U.S. officials.“
Waltz and staff used Gmail for government communications, officials say
Trump’s national security adviser is trying to manage his way out of a crisis. But new revelations about his team’s operational security are piling up in the inbox.

The salon is bad enough, but talking about using SNAP money for weaves makes his throwback “welfare queen” racism absolutely crystal clear should anyone not be clear on the racism. Same disgusting like as their nasty Saint Raygun (spelling intentional).
Yes. The mitre and the statement about the Eucharist are both very powerful, but the mitre in particular makes it a strong visual that even non- Catholics are likely to key into as symbolically important and unmistakeable that upper levels of the church are more involved.

If you or someone you care about are one of the 42 million Americans who buy groceries with SNAP benefits, you should know that on the night before those benefits ended, your president held a lavish, expensive private party at his estate in Palm Beach.

That is how much he cares about you.

deep inside the country. If the algorithm flags someone as “not a U.S. citizen,” agents can override traditional proof of citizenship, even something as official as a birth certificate, in favor of whatever the system reports. And those scanned have no right to refuse, including U.S. citizens.
And, apparently, he said this to Eugene Daniels, not his co-host Jonathan Capehart. One wonders why he mixed them up. 🤔
