In a sweeping decision, a judge found that international students and other noncitizens “unequivocally” have the same First Amendment rights as Americans. That doesn’t mean they’ll feel comfortable speaking out.

A Federal Judge Has Ruled That Foreign Students and Scholars Have Free-Speech Rights
The decision calls threats to deport pro-Palestinian activists a “truly scandalous and unconstitutional suppression of free speech.”

Do you ever think about the fact that Wikipedia is the last good major website on the internet? You aren't bombarded with ads. It doesn't try to push video on you, and it doesn't redirect you to a scam site.

Let's be precise @cbsnews.com : it's a relief, not statues. And it isn't a toga either. Looks like a himation worn over a tunica. At first sight that's one of the most interesting aspects about it.

When amongst themselves, Saturnians measure nerdiness by how many of the planet's moons people will be able to name. There are some mnemonic rhymes helping in the endeavour, but they are complicated due to the total lack of vowels in the Saturnian language.

I really like Netflix's "Ripley", not least thanks to its great décor - and I even like this small (intentional?) mistake: Dickie Greenleaf's studio contains a reproduction of the famous 'Tomb of the Diver' fresco from Paestum. The story is set in 1960/61, but the tomb was discovered in 1968. 1/3

In case you wondered what a "New York Times" front page calmly chronicling the descent into fascism and the end of America as a benevolent superpower looks like, here is a fine example:

Love the fact, that the parental advisory for "The Return" (the Fiennes-Binoche flick on Odyssey books 13-24) notes its featuring "many people being killed by arrows" as well as "discussions of longing for home". Sounds pertinent.
Advisory by kids-in-mind.com for The Return (2024): "Why is “The Return” rated R? The MPAA rating has been assigned for “violence, some sexual content, graphic nudity and language.” The Kids-In-Mind.com evaluation includes full male nudity in a non-sexual context, several sex scenes with partial nudity, an implied rape, many people being killed by arrows as well as sword slashes and stabbings with blood pooling and splattering, many discussions of war and death, discussions of longing for home, several arguments and at least 3 F-words. Read our parents’ guide below for details on sexual content, violence & strong language."

Tell me about a complicated man.
Muse, tell me how he wandered and was lost when he had wrecked the holy town of Troy, and where he went, and who he met, the pain he suffered in the storms at sea, and how he worked to save his life and bring his men back home. He failed to keep them safe; poor fools, they ate the Sun God's cattle, and the god kept them from home. Now goddess, child of Zeus, tell the old story for our modern times.

In den konsensuell geprägten Merkel-Jahren ist das hässliche Gesicht des deutschen Konservatismus in Vergessenheit geraten (der @spiegel.de nahm das bereits am vom 25.2.2006 wahr). Daher rührt m.E. die derzeit verbreitete Verblüffung über sein comeback.

Angela Merkel, Franz Müntefehring, Horst Köhler, Wolfgang Schäuble, Gregor Gysi, Peer Steinbrück, Guido Westerwelle, Harald Schmidt, Michael Schuhmacher, Thomas Gottschalk, Uli Wickert. Einzig bei Edmund Stoiber macht das Lächelschild z.T. einer durchaus grimmigen Grimasse Platz.

#OTD february 4th, 211 AD emperor Caracalla suceeded his father. I give you our plaster cast of his portrait. Nota bene: This portrait isn't a critique of the emperor, but indicative of the strongman image he fully intended to convey. I won't post any presidential mugshots etc. for comparison.

#GoogleMaps’ satellite view has been updated to reflect the current state of Los Angeles, after the fires. Below you can see how close the fire came to the #GettyVilla - the houses on the ridge above are gone (first pic). Pacific Palisades, mostly gone. Altadena, same. 😞 #LAfires
Google Maps satellite view over the Getty Villa in Pacific Palisades, next to Malibu. Several homes above the villa have burned to the ground. A wider map would show hundreds of homes gone.Satellite photo above Pacific Palisades village (the small shopping district on Sunset Blvd.) and the homes surrounding it. Only a few businesses were spared when the billionaire owner rented water trucks and private firefighters to save his buildings. He didn’t save the businesses immediately adjacent, nor, according to the people who live in the area, businesses that he was in opposition to before the fires.Satellite photo over Altadena, a neighborhood in the north of L.A., snuggled against the mountains. All gone, burned to the ground. Over a thousand homes and businesses, I think.
