Babylonians divided the lunar month (~28 days) into shorter units of weeks based on the 7 known celestial objects.

Sun-day
Mo(o)n-day
Tiws-day (Mars)
Wodens-day (Mercury)
Thors-day (Jupiter)
Friggs-day (Venus)
Satur(n)-day

Tue-Fri = Norse words

4,000 yrs later we still use it

"Should we be suspicious of Islam? (As a particularly comment religion)"

"How dare you! But also you're lucky and should be thanking us b/c there's an angry mob outside that would literally kill you"

"Yes that's kind of exactly my point"

"Bigot!"

"What"

[Basil the Great @BasilTheGreat]

WOW.

A student at the Oxford Union tells Tommy Robinson he is lucky they've put security on for him otherwise their Pro-Islam supporters outside would beat him to death

This is the Oxford Union, how far it has fallen as an institution when this is the sort of argument made

Stayed more than 2 years after visa expired. "Originally from Cameroon" is a weird way of saying citizen of Cameroon who is here illegally. Like why would you expect to go through TSA security with ID verification when you're in the country illegally?

[ABC News @ABC]

A Johns Hopkins University researcher, originally from Cameroon, was detained by ICE officers at Baltimore Washington International Airport, according to the university, which said it is "deeply concerned" about the matter.

@CaitlinClark22 Also this.

Another game, another milestone for Caitlin Clark 💪

[JustSomeDude @SOTTATIS]

@CaitlinClark22 is literally the only WNBA player in the Top 5 for all offensive stats. 3rd for Points (21.5), 2nd for assists(7.9), & 4th for 3s.

Outrageous

[Matt Taibbi @mtaibbi]

I know. That’s why it boggles the mind that news outlets are calling the diaries useless or a nothingburger. They’re damning

[JustSomeDude @SOTTATIS]

This is like when people wave the Mexican flag while decrying America as a 'colonizer'.

[Johannes M. Koenraadt @johannesmkx]

It's worth noting that Moroccans speak Arabic and is ruled by Arabs. Arabs aren't native to North Africa. They are colonizers.

There's a word for a coordinated swarm of 49k military aged males. It begins with an 'i'.

About 49,000 migrants entered Spanish enclave of Ceuta from Morocco in 24 hours, officials estimate https://t.co/FoDfvrEKVl

[JustSomeDude @SOTTATIS]

Wait... Granting amnesty encourages further massive waves? Who would have guessed 🙃

[CBS News @CBSNews]

Video footage shows hundreds of migrants crossing into Spain's North African enclave of Ceuta on Thursday, with many entering on foot or by sea.

It's crazy that Fauci documented criminal conspiracy and how he was perjuring himself multiple times... And yet he has complete immunity thanks to a last minute vague open ended pardon from Biden

[Mike Benz @MikeBenzCyber]

“if they came out with that statement… it would undermine the DOJ’s efforts at mandates.” It’s literally everything we all suspected, got banned for saying, which they denied publicly, but confessed in a diary.

[Mike Benz @MikeBenzCyber]

Fauci is pleading the Fifth today because he only has 2 choices: tell the truth that shatters what’s left of his reputation, or lie and get hit with perjury charges that his past pardon can’t protect.

[Marc Porter Magee 🎓 @marcportermagee]

“Fauci’s diary reads like a black comedy of manners in which a 79-year-old social-climbing scientist becomes the face of the government’s response to a pandemic and then the toast of the town”

Cities and countries will do this kind of shit and make normal people trying to to the right thing jump through a dozen hoops spend thousands and wait years...

... All while simultaneously absolutely refusing to remove homeless encampments / arrest & imprison criminals, etc

[Mason @webdevMason]

How normal well-adjusted people become libertarians

[KanekoaTheGreat @KanekoaTheGreat]

🚨NEW: Rand Paul’s Fauci Diary website has quietly REDACTED the June 2021 entry where Fauci describes suffering a pulmonary infarction (lung blood clot).

Side-by-side:

Original → Full account of the CT scan, initial cancer scare, confirmation of a “definite” pulmonary infarct in the right lower lobe, and immediate start of Eliquis.

Now → The entire medical passage is blacked out.

Did Fauci’s lawyers demand the redaction?

Why scrub a lung blood clot from 2021 after it went public?

The change came just hours after @SecKennedy and others began publicly highlighting the entry.

[Rand Paul @RandPaul]

The same mainstream media that demanded we all trust the science can't bring themselves to report what their favorite scientist wrote in his own diary. I wonder why.

[JustSomeDude @SOTTATIS]

Guys! You won't believe this! ICE is... Arresting people in the country illegally.

Wait... Isn't that literally their job?

Well i guess technically yes, but this is a problem.

Why?

Um because it's wrong?

Why?

Fascist!

What?

[The New York Times @nytimes]

ICE is detaining foreign citizens at airports with expired U.S. visas, including spouses of Americans, according to documents obtained by The New York Times and interviews with immigration lawyers. https://t.co/gHPgFnhc6r

[JustSomeDude @SOTTATIS]

Whoops

[NPR @NPR]

Virus researchers — who are familiar with lab accidents and how research on coronaviruses is conducted — say there is virtually zero chance that the novel coronavirus was released as result of a lab accident, despite misinformation being circulated.

Los Angeles Times: Multiple people injured in collision involving Waymo near downtown Los Angeles

Reality: The Waymo was driving at 27mph on Venice Blvd when the blue vehicle hit a homeless person illegally crossing the street in a wheelchair, swerved across the road and hit the Waymo.
