The actress playing Helen of Troy not knowing what The Odyssey was despite attending Yale University perfectly encapsulates everything wrong with the modern world. A woman who has been gifted opportunities far beyond her merit so institutions can check off their diversity box.

@ProofofMaro Not to be that guy, but the word "laser" is not an acronym. It *was* an acronym. But the notion that a word's origin dictates its current nature or use is a fallacy.

How old were you when you learned the word ‘laser’ is an acronym?

Academics are literally trying to change the dictionary just to prove me wrong. This guy wants to alter the standard Ancient Greek translation reference to say that κυνώπιδος means 'ashamed' rather than 'shameless.' Why? Because I insulted him and he doesn't like my politics. I've said it before, but save your old books. They are going to rewrite everything and tell you up means down.

So this is going to go over RHG's head, but it's a useful point to make: how does a classicist go about digging deep what a word *means* in a given context, or what it might mean? Even to dispute a dictionary? It turns out that we have an established method for this! 1/

@KatieMiller Understood. So don’t take it. The FDA has deemed it safe for decades. And if you want more families, make family life more affordable here in 🇺🇸. Pay women $2500 bonuses for giving birth. Pay parents $300/mo per child until 21. It’s almost like supply and demand…

I've gotten thousands of death threats from stupid black people the past week. So to all the blacks that want to "slide" on me, or "drop my lo" here is your chance! Meet me this Sunday at 12:00pm EST. The address is: 3050 NW 183rd St, Miami Gardens, FL 33056 Before we duel, I'm going to give you a copy of the book "The Cat In The Hat". If you can read 2 pages uninterrupted, without sounding it out or using your index finger to focus on each sentence we can engage in combat. I know this can be annoying, but beating up retards is a crime in Florida (Section 825.102 – Abuse or Neglect of Disabled or Elderly Person). Therefore, I have to ensure you're mentally competent first, since coming to fight a podcaster over tweets is pretty fucking retarded. Comment "monkey" below and I'll DM you my number to coordinate. I look forward to meeting all of you! 🤗

If that addict on your street were your own son, what would you do? That is the defining question that guides my 5 step plan to fix the homelessness problem in LA. We *must* end this evil racket of corrupt politicians and NGOs who profit off the misery of these poor souls. They launder money and feed them more drugs, so they can keep their customers locked in this hell on our streets. We have a moral obligation from God to help them and make our city safe and clean for everyone. Karen Bass and Nithya Raman have forsaken this city. Time for real leadership. Time for real compassion.

@brndmng It’s a Persian word and Sanskrit word. Not “Proto indo-European”…has nothing to do with Europe.

Both "magic" and "machine" trace back to the Proto-Indo-European root magh, meaning "to be able" or "to have power."

@ShooTrooTwo @FourWingAstral @ShitpostRock2 My brother Skyrim was made in 2011 by bethesda, the 360 and the ps3 were underpowered compared to pcs of that era. What makes you think they could do the scale of cyberpunk 2077, a game mind you that was made for modern consoles and PCs

@elonmusk @GuntherEagleman Identifying the shooter isn't very important right now. The most important thing is to get the system right, abolish gun law in America and save lives.

BREAKING: There are now reports of THREE PEOPLE who lost their lives at the Islamic Center shooting in San Diego. "There are two teachers or staff from the school to be more specific, that have been killed as a result of the shooting. That is separate from the suspects we are hearing about."
