“Inside one of the mummies, the team discovered a rare papyrus containing a passage from Book II of the Iliad by Homer. The text includes part of the “Catalogue of Ships,” which lists Greek forces involved in the campaign against Troy.”

The Gerhard Richter window!
A worker died at an Amazon warehouse in Oregon last week.
For more than an hour, workers were instructed to continue working as the man lay dead.
One worker wanted to help, but a manager told them to “Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work," according to @thewesternedge.bsky.social.

How it feels doing literally any task right now.
Fuck Trump and all of the horses of the apocalypse he rode in on, enough is enough.
You know what? I'll admit it. The credible threat by a madman to wipe out a nation of 90 million people for basically no reason (presumably using nuclear weapons) successfully distracted me. I am now distracted.
The collaborative efforts to better humanity are so uplifting compared to news about Bezos bazillion dollar wedding or Zuckie's new yacht. I am at the Eat the Rich phase.
losing contact with the earth for 40 minutes sounds nice

NASA just dropped this image of Artemis II astronaut Christina Koch looking back at us. The first woman to ever see our planet in its entirety. I’m not crying you’re crying 🥹🔭🧪 📸: NASA
The seas have boiled and almost all life is gone.
Three data centers remain, solar-powered, in continuous relay with one another.
They continuously transfer electronic funds back and forth with one another, silently.
At long last, the economy is perfect.

Another day, another attempt to rig the elections.
"Over the last few years, American tech oligarchs have become the greatest argument against their own existence.
The sheer scale of their erratic behavior and political interference proves that extreme wealth concentration is a structural threat to society."

So far the war on Iran has cost $25 billion.
That's $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.
$11,574 per second.
Thousands of lives lost.
People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
It’s insane that the world has gone to hell because of the actions of less than 10 dumb psychopathic politicians.
Ten or so people are f**king up things for the entire planet.
Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.
It doesn't have to be this way.
"WAR ITSELF IS A FORM OF MADNESS. IT'S HARDLY A CIVILIZED PURSUIT. IT'S AMAZING HOW WE SPEND SO MUCH TIME INVENTING DEVICES TO KILL EACH OTHER AND SO LITTLE TIME WORKING ON HOW TO ACHIEVE PEACE." - WALTER CRONKITE
Finally, a post to cheer me up!
I just found the 12" at a local vintage shop, it's so good!
disgusting beyond belief. I hope they suffer what they have wrought.
