NEW: World Cup Daily, Day 25. They just don't care. Qatari World Cup organizers don't even hide their apathy over migrant worker deaths, including the most recent one.

@TheStalwart Couldn’t get chips for the computer necessary to ensure each bag has the right mix of colors/flavors?

@AncientsHH @rogueclassicist Fascinating. According to this, Barca means “from Barca.” Couldn’t Barca mean “conqueror of Barca” the way Africanus refers to a conquest of a place, not place of origin? Or were the Romans the only ones to use this naming convention?

@hmeisler I always assumed it’s cuz it’s roughly 1 year of trading days

@jpnudell Nice, I can understand that takeaway. I’m left to wonder why those storyboards were never transformed into a proper graphic novel…

@jpnudell Thanks to the Tron thing I recently dove into Jodorowsy’s Dune. Have you seen the doc? Giger is one of many legends featured in it. The art made in pre-production (largely by Moebius) is spectacular

@ryanfb Sounds like a large sum. How many talents in a carat? Curious what the interest rate was in % terms

[FBI Newark @FBINewark]

The FBI has received credible information of a broad threat to synagogues in NJ. We ask at this time that you take all security precautions to protect your community and facility. We will share more information as soon as we can. Stay alert. In case of emergency call police.

@Quatr_us We are totally on the same page, but as you said previously it’s $30 a day on each person, not $30 a year. A 10% increase in spending for programs that really will pay for themselves!

[(((Nate))) @natroniks]

@Quatr_us The US collects roughly 3.3 T in tax revenue per year (based on last 5 years)
So the bill maps maps out spending about 1 year’s worth of revenue over the course of 10 years

@SaraEisen Seems to me if you get covid and live w others, esp unvaxed, you’re likely to pass it on. Maybe vaxed it’s not quite as transmissible? But really it shows the importance of getting vaxed for protection! Yes you can catch & pass it, but vaxed makes it more like flu than plague

@lillydancyger Probably an anxiety of crowds/close contact with basically anyone outside your household.

@profyarrow The positioning and perspective of figures here are so reminiscent of the bronze “sacrifice of Isaac” Ghiberti made for the doors of the Florence baptistery. And yet the Renaissance artist never would’ve seen this ancient work. Amazing.

@nadirahdixit It’s the academic institution version of rich people getting stuff for free
