@NJFiorvento I just put this booklet together with metrical Compline psalms and hymns, using Claude and text from an anglican metrical psalter. Haven't printed it yet.

@JosephBenJ2 @ClassicalTheis No, at that point you just need a Bible and various commentaries by Fathers and saints.

@ClassicalTheis I just picked this up

@literally_chad @MomaBera We don't do an allowance, but I suggested it once purely as a way for her to feel she could just spend money on herself without feeling guilty lol

@QuetzalPhoenix Western Europe didn't actually have access to Homer until the late 1300s. They did have other Latin stories of the Trojan War.

@a_fellow_of Reminds me of a character from The Secret History by Donna Tartt. He's fluent in several dead languages but shocked to learn about heliocentrism. Also an autodidact.

@owenbroadcast I interpret it as a parable about poor planning.

@benitokatolik I want to read the "Christmatic" Bible.

Once met a guy who genuinely spoke with a transatlantic accent. His parents hired a dialect coach for him when he was a little kid, and it really stuck.

@kurington @UpdatingOnRome Fiddla, Please!

Nolan’s Oppenheimer is about how dropping the atomic bomb was bad. Nolan’s Odyssey is about how going to war is bad. Taken together, they symbolize Nolan’s opinion that we shouldn’t have interfered in WW2.

@Coachkcrypto @JamesSurowiecki Do you think Ken Watanabe is white, or that Tom Cruise played Katsumoto Moritsugu?

@OVTweetmarck He's right though, my 2 year old goes nuts for Jar Jar based on character design alone

@OrwellNGoode No, we had another baby

@dissidentwest This image has to be 20 years old at this point. I feel like it shows up here every six months.

@kenzietuff Was this the last time Arthur has been portrayed as a hero in a movie? I saw this once when I was 8, I vaguely remember him being a good guy.

That said when baby #3 shows up before a substantial raise I will be taking full advantage. Sorry.

I support Universal Basic Beans and Rice (for US citizens, ofc).

@j3lqingt0n SNAP is almost entirely a scam. We could have a national food program with packaged flour, rice, eggs, beans and do more good than charge cards where poor families buy garbage to give themselves diabetes (that taxes also pay for)
