I am not a Christian of course but like all Americans I have spent my life marinating in Christian mythography, and so around this time of year I have a lot of thoughts about the Nativity and the part where the innkeeper says there's no room in the inn.

Here's Cernunnos, wishing you all a merry Yuletide, however you celebrate!
The name Cernunnos appears in an inscription on a first-century CE Roman pillar from Gaul, associated with a horned figure.

Ten years ago I posted on Republican obsessions re naval ships, especially naming them in ways that carry out immature grudges. And that was back when GOP insanity was merely Neocon warmongering and cheating, before the present era of volcanically-open-evil.

I’m back after a 3 day suspension for sharing a link to publicly available police reports exposing Blood Tribe nazis. They also removed the post. Bluesky evidently prioritizes the protection of literal, active nazis over community safety. Unfortunately for BT, they’re already in the sunlight now :)

what the nerds seem to always have, that the warrior culture doesn't, is a willingness to look at what is actually decisive in conflict, rather than what makes them feel like they have a bigger penis than they actually do, or what they think will make their wives finally look at them like a man

The racist disbelief that Black people can be worthy of coveted opportunities leads to all sorts of resentments. People cloak their resentments in a variety of talking points. This guy is recycling the current talking point of resentful White people by cloaking his resentment in “discrimination.”

You absolutely will not convince a bunch of historians and sociologists and whoever else is in this thread that you know more than we do about this and we should use it. I wish you AI enthusiasts would stop wading into our conversations. You have nothing helpful to contribute and are snarky.
