Okay, unrelated Dionysus news, I was looking around for some additional images of him and found this one where he looks like he got assigned the role of fruit for the school play about the food groups.

Fun fact: around this time eels were commonly eaten in Rome but also sometimes kept as pets. It's been written that Crassus would dress his pet eel up in jewelry ("just like some lovely maiden") and held a funeral for them when they died.

This lady is just chowing down on raw meat. Is it referencing sparagmos — the ritual of the cult of Dinoysus wherein adherents tore live animals apart with bare hands and consumed their flesh raw? Who knows! It's debatable whether that was actually a thing, but I think about it all the time anyway.

Marantz's is a nuanced storyteller who avoids sane-washing the alt-right figures he follows. He also does a great job of demonstrating how the act of "trolling" is just cover for field testing abhorrent beliefs with the ultimate goal of moving the Overton window. Rating: 😀/😀 #booksky

Read this on background for the podcast and was surprised I liked it, though it is unbelievably sad. I don't feel much differently about the Bidens than I did before, but I do understand crack addiction a lot better! Rating: 🙂/😀

I know basically nothing about Chinese history between WWI and the civil war, so I loved getting a glimpse of life in Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Taiwan during this time. Sadly for me I found it hard to connect with either main character. Rating: 🙂/😀

Fascinating look at Dr. Blasey-Ford's life prior to testifying at Kavanaugh's confirmation and the effects that decision continues to have on her and her family to today. Rating it with happy emojis feels weird, but whatever: 😀/😀

Inspired by @hayleyotrope.bsky.social I want to get on Booksky! Here's what I read in Jan:
Was trying something new with this one — I don't usually do thrillers. Loved that it's set in PDX, and the plot was engaging. I did have a hard time with the MC who made some batshit decisions. Rating: 😐/😀

Can someone explain the point of adding a gen AI tool to articles on the Washington Post that summarizes the article your own newsroom wrote? And that still has to be reviewed by actual writers?
