Recurrent crises regarding standing army loyalties, land grants for superannuated soldiers, assimilation of conquered neighbours, and slavery.

Now reading: Anthony Everitt's biography of Cicero (2003). Excerpts below 🧵

[Yung Lain 🇬🇧 @LainPoasting]

An exercise in rehabilitation. "John Adams' first book and proudest possession was Cicero."

Using social media for Japanese immersion means curating your feeds to surround yourself with authentic, native content.

I tried teaching myself classical guitar for a while and made some progress, but it was just as frustrating and painstaking as I remember it being at age 11. Self-teaching electric guitar absolutely trivial in comparison.

Niall Ferguson’s wife enthusiastic about Restore. Niall Ferguson is a strong supporter of Kemi Badenoch and appealed directly to Elon Musk to support her in 2024. Probably had a hand in her appearing on Bari Weiss’ podcast early in her leadership.

「練習しているうちに 指の先が硬くなるから血が出たりすることは ないよ」fair amount going on here for a K-On! episode so can't blame him tbh

[Yung Lain 🇬🇧 @LainPoasting]

He's watching without subs here. That's just a normal reaction to the first couple of attempts at immersion.

I think if you have four hours per day plus weekends to do anything you want and you squander it, then you're low in conscientiousness and your 4HL needs to become a 1HL.

[LindyMan @PaulSkallas]

When you have a job. When you're in the 4HL you don't have time for an identity.

What can you do with a few hours? One activity at most. Buy a few things.

There's a time limit on peoples lives. You can't expect too much from them
