NYT writes this like it’s a big surprise that she had looted antiquities. I just assume all antiquities are looted. And people who donate to museums are the very people who have these. I’d be more surprised if say, my plumber had looted antiquities. @RidiculousCrime thoughts?

@uyarakq The Icelandic word is “félagi” which is like “partner” or “member (of a club)” but when I hear it I always think “howdy partner” which is not related at all 🫠

The volcano will not build affordable housing, build more schools, build more health and mental health centres, or make wages on par with the rate of inflation, or block state assets from being sold to private citizens or tackle corruption 😭 #eldgos

99% Invisible: in this episode we talk about sex in the 17th century, if you are listening with someone who may not be ready for that….

This week is a big week for schadenfreude

I don’t know why they haven’t changed their name. It is not a good look for a “reputable” casting agency to be called this.

Important tourism question: How did they obtain lava for the lava show? Did they take it from the earth? In what container??? How do they know they didn’t unleash an ancient curse during this endeavour?????

Fire in the boat house in Hafnarfjörður

Fire in Hafnarfjörður. It’s a vacant boat house so hopefully nobody hurt.

@TylerMahanCoe @JoshuaHedley Oh god have you seen Ethan Hawke’s Blaze Foley movie? I’m telling you he had the actors read the Wikipedia as they “reminisced” various misadventures.

@loogawa @ZoeSchiffer I think if he was a capitalist he wouldn’t have orchestrated the sale of his company in order to pay *more* taxes to the society that raised him.

But I get what you’re saying.

@ChickenJoeSTL Lovely photo Joe! Reminds me of “the Lonely House” by Hopper (1923)

@brooksbarnesNYT Really easy to be “apolitical” when you’re at the top, huh?

@PhoenixJRamos I’m kind of shocked people in positions of power, who work with immigrants, don’t know the basics of immigration practices.
