The Antiquities of the Jews by Josephus - which promises to be a long haul.
I have learned from Mary Beard's talk about Roman Emperors that the senators allowed emperors to go unchecked not just out of fear, but the possibility of gain - and that the gladius of power had another side: the emperor can trust no one b/c they are lying all the time.

Recorded on my phone - sorry about the quality. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sjS...
That worked. Thanks.
Good thing I checked here b/c the link in the email didn't work.
For the last time, IT'S A JAR.
My beautiful Mom - today is her birfday.
Strangely, that described a friend of mine reading comics he hadn't paid for in the store ... while at Harvard Law School. T-shirt, scruffy, lank hair to his shoulders. Also had the nerve to ask me when I was going to wash MY hair. Miss him.
I use my WaterPik for cleaning crevices in rocks. I figure the d*mn electric toothbrush is enough.

You better, better hide your heart. Elon's comin', better walk. Walk, but you'll never get away, no you'll never get away from the burnin' cybertruck.
Ohhh, Good N' Plenties! YOM!
We usually hear them at night and early morning … when we’re awake. Heh.
Down here they say, "Who cooks for youuuu, who cooks for y'alllll!"
Night mining! It’s a party.
Rough rubies wire wrapped.
Jasper, interesting shape found on Kure Beach, red glass, and Aventurine.
The audiobook is top notch as well. And the news of a third in the series has made my day. Can't come soon enough. [Cracks whip.]
Are you sure that's not a young Heracles throttling a lion?
Holy shhhugar! That's my neighborhood! Get on it right away!
Reversible hematite pendant.
Tiger Eye wire wrap. Thanks, @brazentiger.bsky.social
It's always something. Give it another swipe.
Thanks, @brazentiger.bsky.social
A little wire wrapping.

The Language Instinct by Pinker - Will this help me teach ESL?
Für Elise
This looks legit. DinoSOURS.
Cheered up yet? No? (Grits teeth) www.youtube.com/watch?v=peX5...
As no appreciative improvement in morale has be detected ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=peX5...
Jesus Interrupted by Bart Ehrman. Again.
Postings of this video will continue until morale improves.
James by Percival Everett. Actually I finished it in one day. Damn.
Took me a minute to translate that to "whipped cream" from the connection to German - but I think I like "Slagroom" better than "Schlagrahm." Gimme one o' them Slagrooms!
This is my new Cancer Anthem.
This is a milestone. Heidi got in my lap and stayed for an extended petting.
Not fair. Laughed until I started wheezing.
Oh, so it wasn't the old "flash yer *!*$" solution that allegedly worked so well for Phryne and numerous other females.
To keep moths away from your knickknacks?
Teach Yourself Complete Babylonian
I only had to read Jacques Cousteau books to worry about great white sharks in the local swimming pool - the perfect camouflage! You won't catch me watching Jaws.
Duolingo is p’ing me o again. A fill in the blank answer could be either links or rechts (plus some nonsensical answers). The previous exercise had the same sentence with links. I guessed wrong and lost a ❤️. Either direction word would be grammatically correct. Bist du schon nicht Tot, Eule?!
I had a friend who went to Harvard Law School who was still reading comic books - not "graphic novels" - real ones like Batman issues. But he didn't buy them. He'd sneak a read at the shop. Not sure what the moral here is ...
Revelations
Only too right. And sheep are a nice substitute for cats as a palette cleanser.
It's 6:19 am and I've already misplaced my phone. Awwww, pook!
How do you pronounce that? I don't want to get it wrong.
This made my day.
e-tsundohku
Stabbed with a paintbrush? That would be different. (Heh) Took a bit to find the axe. I thought that was Klytemnestra behind Agamemnon having thrown the net over him. He looks wet with streaming hair and beard.
Limes all sliced and soaking in water. Some time tomorrow it's marmalade madness! (Had to run out and buy new canning lids I forgot about.)
BLOO-skee, BLOO-skee!
Learned their lesson from the incident with Aphrodite of Praxiteles at Knidos.
Heehee
Cook not responsible for cat hair in the gingerbread.
Christmas baking help
FINally.
Noir and Razzmatazz are brilliant - but you should hear the audio too. I can listen to those over and over.
A very Dinkie Christmas to all!
My favorite is the Robert Sabuda pop-up. I used it just today with my ESL students. I was too busy reading it to them to notice any eye-rolling.
“Here comes #menopause”
No, Duolingo, I do not want to learn German at 6 o'effingclock in the morning.
Every Videogame From 1954. Happy Holidays!

Moonpenny Duchess Marchpaine, AKA Heidi
I can't work because the breaker to the garage is off because of storm damage. Trying to be patient waiting for my turn with the contractor.
HB!
This is the best thing ever. I could watch it over and over.

Not sure Hall's stage genius transfers to film. As for Ian Richardson as Oberon - I couldn't possibly comment.
Thesmophoriazousai, because I don't remember it and it's referenced in The Reign of the Phallus.
Ah, fresh new vict-, um, viewers of Husbob's videos! www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCDI...
Every new user should like and repost this.. 😉
Couldn't take it any longer. The stress of politics AND hurricane brought back the shingles.
Refugee from other social space. More cute kitty.
The stress of hurricane and politix have reignited my shingles. Great. On top of everything else. Here's a cute kitty.
