- Putting it out there that I'd like to talk to someone out there who 1) is a graphic designer 2) has listened to the Martian Revolution. If that is you or someone you know hmu
- Just to follow up on what @sarahebond.bsky.social said, the idea that in *50BC* Rome failed to solve a population decline and that led to the collapse of their civilization is so unfathomably historically illiterate it's hard to even know where to begin
- Reposted by Mike DuncanHistorians know: the false confidence & frequency with which Musk says “throughout history” signals the immediate historical mendacity that will follow. He hasn’t ever done the reading & makes up “facts” about Rome—which reached its pop. height around the 2ndC CE & didn’t “fall” from pop. decline.
- Sincerely I mean this, Nero never did anything this stupid
- Please to enjoy this interview/profile of me and the Martian Revolution.
- Wrote this into the Martian Revolution back in Dec when I was concerned people wouldn't accept a character being *that* stupid.
