Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

A clear and brave message from @navalny in case the regime should kill him.

Excited to be in Oxford to give a paper on 'Monumentality and materiality on late Roman sarcophagi' at the Late Roman Seminar this afternoon ⚰️📃

The remains of a Roman mausoleum “with an astonishing level of preservation” – believed to be the most intact structure of its kind discovered in Britain – have been unearthed in London.

#EpigraphyTuesday A tomb of one's own. This lovely marble box was fashioned as a mini-tomb for Publius Ciartius Actus. Curving columns with dolphin capitals, an eternal garland draped over a delicately hewn doorway of Ionic capitals 🧵 1/3

If you wanna see what a beautiful soul #TyreNichols was, check out his photography website. I'm saddened
that we have to memorialize this young man already but I'm glad he left this imprint, particularly for his family. There are some beautiful pics.

You think you know it all—from childhood instruction by parents, through school, to trained historical study—yet James Bulgin here on @BBCTwo tells you necessary truths that take the #Holocaust to new depths of moral & civic collapse #HolocaustMemorialDay

The Holy Family is still among us here and now, in the faces of the refugee, the immigrant, the oppressed, the sick and poor.

“For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me." Matthew 25:35

Merry Christmas

Caesar's comet & the birth of Christ... why I don't read the gospel birth narratives the same way I used to.

A final farewell to @MuseumofLondon at London Wall site last night with 46 years' worth of staff/volunteers - last chance to wander the galleries before the doors closed for good! 😪👋

Just in case it's the last #SarcophagusSaturday... it had better be the sarcophagus of Marcus Claudianus, c. 330 AD, Museo Nazionale Romano. Standing in front of this one for ages changed the way I look at these monuments 💘⚰️😍

[Dr Miriam Hay @MiriamAnnaHay]

@Ritterton They definitely liked their miracle scenes 🍷 My pleasure!
