- very good essay. i got profoundly, untetheredly angry at this bit in particular
- A fascinating writing on Gaelic from the 19th century to the modern day by Josie Giles hjosephinegiles.substack.com/p/on-the-gae...
- One of the more unfortunate cases of it Not Working is when Syriza let Independent Greeks run - of all goddamn things - the Defence and Internal Affairs ministries
- Weird that the word "archer" has almost entirely pushed out the word "bowman," which is just better, from everyday speech.
- "from four or five years ago" so like not especially long ago
- the replies are full of people giving excuses for why educators can't and all I can say is: yes, there are always reasons why the right thing can't be done
- Reposted by Nukes for Eilistraee 🇺🇦🇱🇹I think the observation that the US invented nuclear weapons while fighting an incredibly bloody, total war and used them immediately, but that afterwards neither they nor anyone else used them again, gives a clue as to a reasonable middle ground.
- Since 2022 I have actually become firmly convinced that this belief system should automatically land someone in jail.
- Are you all unwell. This Hiroshima discourse is completely unhinged. Some of you are just talking past each other but "the Japanese Empire wasn't that bad" and "nuclear weapons use isn't that bad" are both pretty unhinged takes!
- Growing up Lithuanian means that when I read Akallabêth for the first time and specifically that one of the things the King's Men did was restore Adûnaic to official language status, I couldn't help but think "that seems fair"
- The banal helplessness of the tone of these articles annoys me. Just don't let these students graduate. Fail them!
