He acknowledges that at least. It’s important to recognise that forgiveness is not a right

“Racist” is a bad word for you, but pure a “race realist” who thinks Black people are genetically inferior. In other words, the very definition of a racist. Wear it with pride. It’s what you believe

@nathancofnas.bsky.social hey Nathan, do you have a like, a league table for the number of Black academics you’re hoping to hound to death?

@nathancofnas.bsky.social hey Nathan, you exposed Arday and caused his death. How does it feel? Do you feel good? What do you say to his family?

@nathancofnas.bsky.social hey, Natha!, can you show your methodology for your genetic basis for race? Does it only work if you use your own special algorithm? Or can the rest of us test your data and methods? Or are you scared to let us see?

There are two wolves inside of you. A fantastic result for the rewilding project you've been developing in your chest for the last few years.

By far the funniest moment in Homer’s Odyssey is when Circe says, “Shall we have sex?” and Odysseus says, “You just turned all my men into pigs. You have the GALL to think I would sleep with you? Of course I will. Absolutely. But don’t do any weird spells”
photograph of the relevant passage in Fitzgerald's translation of the Odyssey ("I make no bed of love with you upon it. Or swear me first a great oath, if I do, you'll work no more enchantment to my harm.")

I would like to announce that Bluesky has definitely broken through to the regulars bc my not-at-all-ever-on-social-media spouse just mentioned a Bluesky thread that one of his friends sent him. This is big, people. Huge

"He’s bypassing barricades, crushing fences, lying on roads and bashing into at least one parked car." “He’s broken fences, he’s harassing people’s cars ....” There is a 1-tonne seal, named Neil, that is the deliverer of chaos and destruction to Tasmania. An excellent character.

A 1,000kg mammal is wreaking havoc in Tasmania – and Neil the seal is loved for it
The elephant seal has been crushing fences, blocking traffic and bashing into parked cars, in what experts say is play-fighting behaviour

14 years ago, Magdalene Lum wrote a letter to Sir David. This inspired us to create a wider letter project, Letters to Sir David/Dear Sir David, culminating in a booklet that we hoped would reach him. We don’t know if it did, but the gratitude and affection remains. Happy Birthday, Sir David

Photo of a clay sheep in profile. Only the head, neck, and shoulders are preserved. The artist has made little circles all over the clay animal to show the wool.
