I’m genuinely enjoying everybody’s historical analogues. Third Reich? Vichy? SDF? Let’s hear it. Nobody loves the rhyme of crisis more than me.
But I’m still not convinced the model isn’t just America’s good ole Jacksonian era apartheid-based spoils system.

Minoan vases with octopuses are always a delight, but relatively common. This rare vase shows a different type of marine animal: an argonaut. It's an octopus-like animal that lives on the seabed in a shell. The Minoans were masters of depicting aquatic creatures.

With debate rife about Matt Damon’s armour in the Odyssey photoshoot, a reminder of what Odysseus may have worn. This Mycenaean ivory plaque shows an elite warrior in a boar tusk helmet, carrying a long spear & huge ‘figure of 8’ shield. He seems to wear greaves too.
