An intentionally destroyed #BronzeAge #sword found in a burial at Blaubeuren-Asch. Bronze Age weapons deposited in burials were often bent or hacked into pieces before placed into the grave, in this way they 'died' with the owner. Dating 9th century BC.

That advert is next-level dystopian what the actual fuck
They’re doing eugenics right out in the open now, largely because Trump, RFK Jr, Dr Oz and the rest of the fascists have been pushing a eugenicist agenda since they seized control.
It’s white Christian nationalism and it’s dangerous.
Disabled people are not “imperfect”.
We are also not expendable

I was going to write a thread to myself about how wood carving made me appreciate the creative process again, but I've seen a slough of AI articles today, so I guess it just made me appreciate wood carving.

The principal of Edinburgh Uni earns around £420,000 a year. This week his staff were on strike over the threat of redundancies.
It's time we got the pay of uni and college bosses back under control. MSPs can back my plans to do that on Wednesday.

The UK should never have left the Single Market or Customs Union, but neither Tories nor Labour fought the case for either out of fear of the right.
Now the right is far right, the country is poorer, and so the people angrier, and the flag-waving Brexit nationalism has spiralled out of control.

I can't imagine thinking that the only lesson to take from the holocaust is that Jews must be militantly protected.
Jews like my family made up 60% of the holocausts victims, but they did so alongside communists, disabled people, black people, LGBTQ people etc

I'm struck by this clip of former Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz saying Holocaust education has backfired in part because people Palestinians as victims: "They think the lesson of the Holocaust is…you fight the big powerful people hurting the weak people."

it’s funny because the only people who can truly verify this must be well over the age of 50 and can also be the only people to blame

I don’t know at this point if there is enough evident to say “the New York Times, institutionally, was a co-conspirator with Epstein” but it’s basically beyond doubt at this point that at least one employee of the paper were co-conspirators and used their position at the paper to help affect that
