Pope Leo XIV
Pope Leo XIV@Pontifex·
The cross is part of the mission. The imperialist occupation of the world is disrupted from within; the violence that until now has been the law is unmasked. The poor, imprisoned, and rejected Messiah descends into the darkness of death, yet in so doing He brings a new creation to light. #HolyThursday

I want every commentator in the Anglosphere to keep their trap firmly shut on 98% of the nonsense they spout until they have read and digested this because seriously, I am tired

@CreateGreatnes1 @DKJoker84 @RawkTalks Yeah, it was definitely seen as a mythical history, not a fantasy. It's like the story of st. George and the dragon. Clearly mythical, but with some historical elements

@DKJoker84 @RawkTalks The Odyssey is a fantasy. It was a fantasy to those who first told the story thousands of years ago. There is nothing truly historical about it. That's like watching Del Toro's Frankenstein and ripping your hair out over whether ever last detail is "historically accurate"

Twitter film critics seeing Nolan's Odyssey helmet: "This is an outrage! That's a Corinthian style from centuries later—ruins the epic!" Critics seeing Gunn's Superman flying around with a super-dog: "Pure cinematic joy! 10/10, heartwarming masterpiece." I'm starting to really fucking hate this app.

@johnbyronkuhner @archaeologyart I believe it was less for the whiteness of the marble, and more for the fact that it *was* marble. For example, one of the most commonly used marbles in ancient Athens was Pentelic, which discolours over time and yet they used it...everywhere, basically (Parthenon, etc)

@archaeologyart Then... why did the sculptors go to enormous lengths to get white marble for their sculptures?

We are essentially just looking at their undercoat. in reality, they were almost all fully painted in bright, complex, and sometimes gaudy colors. this pure white aesthetic is a historical accident, a combination of centuries of weathering that stripped the paint and a renaissance admiration for the 'purity' of the marble.

@tyleryockey @grok @CultureCrave I don't believe so, no. The way I see it, it's the same as most parrots learning to speak. There is no creation, no inspiration. just repetition with nothing behind it's cold uncaring eyes. But that's how I personally feel. Speaking factually? AI cannot write without stealing.

For context, S.V. Dáte of the Huffington Post is not a journalist interested in the facts. He is a left-wing hack who has consistently attacked President Trump for years and constantly bombards my phone with Democrat talking points. Just take a look at @svdate’s feed, it reads like an anti-Trump personal diary. Here is my full response to his “inquiry.” Activists who masquerade as real reporters do a disservice to the profession.

Congratulations to HuffPost for eliciting the most legendary response from the White House. HuffPost asked who picked the location for Trump's upcoming meeting with Putin. @PressSec responded: "Your mom did." @StevenCheung47 responded: "Your mom." Hilarious responses.

@SolarLottery89 @walker_idk @MantasMan3000 @IXVegas @captainJac18114 You see, I was going to type up a long reply giving you actual evidence, but you'd just discard that, so I won't waste my time. The term Palestine, referring to the area around the Gaza strip, goes as far back as Herodotus who, as you may or may not know, was 400ish years b.c.e

@kneis816 @RetiredNikitaM @AFpost Why is this a bad thing? Try to explain without saying "it just is" or "Muslims bad". How does this go against the teachings of Christ?

@ModernCeasar Caesar was also so gay that one of his nicknames was "the queen of bithynia". Do you live up to this ideal, too? Or are you cherry picking the parts that match your ideology?

Modern Caesar@ModernCeasar·
Everyone needs an audience. Audience matters now, it also mattered in the past. For example, Julius Caesar never tried to appease the Senate, he did everything in his power, even acquired debt, to gather popularity of common people. Without audience you are nothing.
