Planting trees is certainly good. But it doesn't create a forest. Existing forests should be aggressively protected. There is NO substitute for a natural forest.

great idea sealing the enemy of the realm in stone! but...listen, i know you were thinking about throwing him into the ocean to never be seen again, but hear me out what if we used him as the centerpiece for the village? he just really ties the whole place together yk

Archaeologists have made a stunning discovery inside a 1,600-year-old Egyptian mummy — a fragment of Homer's Iliad. The papyrus was found tucked inside the gut of a mummy unearthed in Tomb 65 at Oxyrhynchus, an ancient city located 118 miles south of Cairo. The excavation was carried out between November and December 2025 by a team including researchers from the University of Barcelona and the Institute of Ancient Near East Studies. This marks the first time a Greek literary text has been found incorporated into the mummification process. Previous discoveries at Oxyrhynchus had turned up Greek papyri used in burials, but their contents were always magical or ritualistic in nature. The fragment found within the mummy belongs to Book II of the Iliad, a section known as the Catalogue of Ships, which lists the Greek forces that sailed to Troy. The Iliad, composed around 800 BC, is widely considered the cornerstone of Western literature and centers on the Trojan War and the fate of the warrior Achilles. Researchers are still unsure why this particular literary passage was chosen for the embalming ritual. The funerary complex also yielded other remarkable finds, including mummies adorned with gold tongues and fingernails, heart scarabs, and amulets depicting gods such as Horus, Thoth, and Isis. #archaeohistories

Annoying bc some of the sentiment of the article is good (though I don’t believe in irreversible amoc collapse), but language is so important and using is this way to fire up discourse is so detrimental to productive governance and social engagement

This is not how you engage productive thinking and conversations. this is just how you fearmonger, pander to people already on side, and make your argument susceptible to being laughed off and discredited
