This was both a powerful and artful memento mori: an elegant woman looking into the mirror, and rapidly aging with the paper flap. This was printed in 1510 Germany, #skystorians

Master of the Legend of St. Vitus, Martyrdom of St. Vitus (interior), c. 1470/1480 87.2 × 91.6 (Belvedere Gallery, Vienna) St. Vitus, lying on his back on a plank, is being pushed into a well-used brick oven by two men in ridiculous outfits while two saints look on in prayer
What people of the past understood is that to do a martyrdom right, you need a wood-fired brick oven that can reach up to 850° F (450° C). Even the best home oven won't get that same perfect char. #earlymodern #arthistory #breadsky

On Monday, a woman posts a photo on her "supersausage_charlie" Instagram account. It shows a dog at a Holy Week event in Spain. The dog is dressed like the other religious figures at the event, which involves an all-white outfit and pointy white hat.
On Monday, a woman posts a photo on her "supersausage_charlie" Instagram account. It shows a dog at a Holy Week event in Spain. The dog is dressed like the other religious figures at the event, which involves an all-white outfit and pointy white hat. The caption reads: "Dachshund takes on Semana Santa 🐶✝️🐣 #dachshund #semanasanta #dogsofinstagram #potd #happyeaster"
On Friday, the same woman posts a photo of her dog sitting on their couch. The dog is again dressed in the same outfit. This time, they have a gold necklace with a Christian cross on his neck.
The caption for Friday's post reads: "‼️PLEASE READ‼️ For clarity: the post from a few days ago was a reference to Semana Santa, a Spanish religious and cultural tradition. It was not connected to extremism, racism, or politics in any way. This was already stated in the disclaimer, but it is clear that some either misunderstood that context or chose to ignore it. This account is a dachshund account, and it will remain a space dedicated purely to the joy, humor, and love of sharing life with my dog. Nothing beyond that. Some of the comments left under that post were deeply disturbing. Hate, racism, extremist language, and abusive behavior have no place here. They will be removed and reported immediately. I appreciate everyone who continues to engage with this page with respect, kindness, and the spirit in which it is intended. • #dachshund #semanasanta #potd #spanishtraditions #fypage"
I'm sorry, but this woman posting photos of her dog at a religious event in Spain and then having to frantically clarify a few days later at their "supersausage_charlie" Instagram account is something out of a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode.

Campaigning in Roman times: For #FrescoFriday a painting from Pompeii that was long believed to show the sale of bread. It's thought now to be the free distribution of bread ahead of an election by a politician in a white toga.

En 2001, tras los atentados de las Torres Gemelas, los aeropuertos de todo el mundo sufrieron una transformacion radical de su seguridad.
En 25 años, no se ha vuelto a producir un caso similar, por lo que el sistema se muestra suficiente.
Sin embargo, la logica securitista ha enloquecido (sigo)

A man sitting at a working desk, in 1540 setting, with a drinking cup, a few books, a writing desk with paper sheets, and lots of more details.
Working the morning shift as a scholar in 1540, a browser tab and a word document opened on two screens, other needed texts opened and handy, an overfull mail account nearby, and a hot beverage in reach to make for the best working condition. Bonus: wearing a thinking hat. #academicchatter
Spotted this 15thC boss of the last supper in the cloister at Norwich Cathedral when visiting recently. It's making wonderfully varied use of perspective but I was most intrigued about the table spread, which says rather more about late medieval England than Roman Judea. Let's decode it! 1/5
#OtD 1 Apr 1649 Protestant radical group the Diggers occupied St George's Hill, UK, and began tilling the land collectively. They advocated a kind of proto-communism based on direct action, common ownership and the end of hierarchy. Commemorated here: shop.workingclasshistory.com/products/tso...
Crec que està molt bé que els Casals i Ateneus facin aquesta feina, això realment és útil per a veins nostres que tenen moltes dificultats, i parlo per casos reals.
"If there is anything scarier than a fascist who denies climate change, it’s one who doesn’t, because we know what kind of “solutions” they would implement. . We have to assume that the right has been brainstorming plans for when the climate crisis gets to genuine emergency levels. There are plenty of people employed to brainstorm contingencies and agencies tasked with predicting and modeling bad things that may eventuate, some of which are secret and some of which are not." . - David Graeber
The likes of Peter Thiel and El*n Musk have their 'solutions.'
Artificial Emotional Intelligence? You ask it a question. It doesn’t try to reply but sympathises with you for the problem that led you to ask, and understands how difficult things must be for you at the moment.
