What. A. Story.
Some of the most remarkable lost artefacts from the ancient world were the titanic wrecks of the Nemi ships, built for a Roman emperor.

In their first-century heyday they held gardens, palaces and baths in a floating wonderland. But barely a decade after their recovery, they were lost forever.

The MERL has asked so nicely, and they are my simgle best follow on here so you won't regret it.
We're 300 followers away from 70,000. 300 more would be really nice. But you know what would be even better? 300 plus 30,000.

All so that idiots can pay billionaires to generate weird pictures of waifus while others ask a robot for a wrong answer born of unprecedented plagiarism.

It's hella valid to note that Pope Leo selected a chosen name and the entire world responded by respecting it. Nobody asked why he has to use a new name. Nobody suggested that he was delusional. We just all collectively said, "Cool. It's Leo now."

But let a trans person select a new name...

Sad that the fire hose of 4 games of playoff hockey every night has been turned off. But VERY excited for my US holiday where I can watch full games live instead of middle of the night social media clips.

Settle in folks, storytime is starting!
We're sharing a criminally good story today.

It involves our 18th century Court stand and how it was a backdrop to a infamous Highwayman's demise before moving to its current location in the Great Hall via a Medieval bridge.

Can't deny that this is tremendous value for money.
It’s Saturday. It’s party time. Let’s look at some bricks!

20,000 of these bad boys were bought for £6 in 1358.

Worth. Every. Penny. 👏

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

This is what happens when you defund and devalue art in schools and scorn a liberal arts education. A technologically advanced but culturally bereft populace whose entire view of creativity is limited to monetization potential, less sophisticated and less artistic than a baby stacking blocks.

So much of our modern politics is unqualified men sabotaging the world we live in because they cannot understand why the world works the way it does and covering it up when they inevitably fuck up.

Here's the statement every American athlete - especially those playing in Canada - has to commit to memory for the next three and a half years (or more, or less). Clip and save a copy of this, if you'd like. I'm giving this away for free:
