@ESCdiscord Is EBU legally required to only make bad decisions or something?

Czechia brilliantly make their point over Austria ORF television’s technical issues #Eurovision2026

@MarcelMarcon_ @HejBjarne Hardly. Besides, English is an official language and all teaching at University is in English. It would be supremely stupid of your university not to allow Malta as an English-speaking country

@CynicalBrit2023 @Seoirse_ @tomhfh That only makes sense if you somehow believe that the Bible, written by imperfect mortal hands in imperfect mortal languages, copied down and translated by other imperfect mortal men into other imperfect mortal languages, was and is a perfect reflection of God's perfect will

Remember this the next time you hear some right wing dingus complain about money going to research on mushroom enzymes or whatever

@eduardo_garcmol Congratulations!!

@TypeForVictory I think I'd happily pay an extra £1-5 pound per night when visiting the UK if I knew the money was going towards upkeepimg and improving the services in the place I'm visiting

I decided to make the syllabus for my upcoming course "The Ancient World in Video Games" public and downloadable on my old blog. Some thoughts about course design sprinkled here and there. Let me know if you find it useful or interesting!

structures they left in their wake.

And so can we.

Take a moment to reflect on its "pre-history", on the sea-ice-hunters, the bear-carvers, and the monument builders of the Dorset.

'History of Greenland' video coming soon. Thanks for reading. 11/END

@AntiquityAlex @BelovedOfOizys It's a weird mix of pride and trepidation

[Samuel Azzopardi @SamuelAzzopard2]

@BelovedOfOizys A sour note to reading an otherwise truly amazing paper

[Samuel Azzopardi @SamuelAzzopard2]

@BelovedOfOizys Unfortunately, I'm not too shocked given the country where this was taking place

[Samuel Azzopardi @SamuelAzzopard2]

@Seoirse_ It's not a UK-only issue tbf. I don't imagine me fighting for Malta either. Government policy has destroyed any emotional attachment I had to the country.

[Samuel Azzopardi @SamuelAzzopard2]

@Seoirse_ I think it would help people get a sense of service if the political class weren't (deservedly) seen as 100% devotes to American commercial and global interests more than anything else.

@bigNASCARguy @Kinnzayyy @_6signxxx If he really cared he could have donated the same amount of money to the same conservation efforts. Let's not act like this guy is the Saint Francis of Elephant Conservation

@porfyrogenitus If this is about THAT slave revolt, the slaves were in collusion with Ottoman forces to hand over the islands to them. Also these Turkish slaves were captured corsairs, not some innocent Balkan boy stolen out of his home to become a eunuch Jannissarie
