This is not surprizing; Lattimore dominates, and it can be difficult to remember that his first name is Richmond, not Richard.
Zeroshot translation with LLM of Homer align more with Lattimore's translation, apparently a canonical one in the English speaking world? #chr2025 doi.org/10.63744/Xcj...

This is unbelievable self-parody
I did not have "The US government wages war against computer fonts because of DEI" on my 2025 bingo card and i did not because it's so fucking stupid that I can no longer think or see straight
Marco Rubio ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor's decision to adopt Calibri a “wasteful” diversity move

Open Rebellion
"I'm not in denial, I'm in open rebellion" damn that quote goes hard
“I am so bored by AI. One of the things I love about the theatre is AI can’t do it.”

Ethan Hawke is a dude 👌🏻

I was told that I like and re-skeet "as if I get paid to do this"

This has to be the nicest thing anyone has ever told me.

Tom!
Former Rep. Tom Perriello, a Virginia Democrat who won his sole term in a huge 2008 upset, unexpectedly announces campaign against GOP Rep. John McGuire. Trump carried the current version of #VA05 56-43, but it could look a lot different if Democrats convince voters to approve a new map this spring.

It comes from the White Supremacist faction (Miller/Bannon) as a claim that the "heart" of "western civilization" is Trump & the US, & Europe has given up promoting "European values." They cannot accept social democracies and such acute attacks of Christianity as Merkel's charity in the Arab Spring.
Where is this attack on Europe coming from? Some readers may remember the old slogan from the War on Terror days, “They hate us for our freedom.” Clearly, MAGA hates Europe

I mean, on the other hand, we might say that too few people have been to France, where the value of rudeness is on display minute-by-minute!
Seconding Siobhán, I endorse further education in the social value of rudeness, which is high!
There are way too many people in the world that have not heard 'fuck off' enough.
