And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting on the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door; And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming.

I love you forever and ever and ever

Bro Amazon told me Monday when I ordered it LAST weekend. Why is it so hard to get one book delivered, where is it coming from Egypt? Wtf.

When researching a conflict between civilizations that use different calendars from each other and us, things can get confusing, so I had to make a spreadsheet :P

I love seeing pictures I’ve created from videos appearing in other sources. This is an image from one of my videos, anyone is encouraged to use them for educational purposes like him.

My wife and I painted together today. I decided to make a scene out of the New Kingdom.

How? How did my video on the Unas pyramid show up when searching for that? And when it did, why did they click on it? I’m happy they did but not what they were looking for lol.

“Fun fact”. Remember the 1999 movie The Mummy? Well this box in it was originally the Lament Configuration. That’s right. What would eventually turn into The Mummy was originally conceived as Hellraiser 3.

Yay!

I’m starting to get references in academic papers. Don’t underestimate YouTubers. Egyptologists do the real research, but Egypt science communicators are currently cultivating the next generation of Egyptologists.

Got a new resource recently!

Saw this on Reddit and had to share. Notice anything unusual? The top half is written from right to left and the bottom half is written left to right. Hieroglyphics are weird.

My man just out here in 1837 excavating the pyramids with a flask and some weed… I respect it. Since I live in a non prohibition state, next puff is for this guy!

Big news from my perspective! Hopefully, I’ll have a consistent revenue stream from it and be able to hire narrators in other languages. I can see viewers use Japanese, Korean, Polish, German, Spanish… captions.

Got an exciting email from YouTube. If I make a few bucks for each video, I might hire a few foreign narrators to make the videos more accessible to native Spanish, French, Japanese, Korean, Polish…

My in laws have this piece of art on the wall and it caught my eye because I recognized the crown and hieroglyphs. Asked around and found out this is the heretic king Akhenaten, his wife, and one of his daughters offering to Aten around 1340BC.
