I havent read @emilyrcwilson.bsky.social's Iliad yet, but this checks out:

"The Wilson Odyssey was remarkable."

Turn anywhere else. Read omens in fish entrails.

"As the violence in and around Gaza has continued to escalate, people are turning to places like X (aka Twitter) for the latest news on the conflict. But they've been met with a flood of bad info"

Mark Zuckerberg’s Threads ‘temporarily’ blocks COVID search terms to focus on larger misinformation concerns

Kudos to the NSF and the Simons Foundation for recognizing the enormous value of what the arXiv provides us all.

Excellent piece on the British roots of the conflict in #Palestine and the impact of colonial “divide and rule” strategies here and elsewhere:

“In British India, they pushed the Hindu-Muslim divide, sometimes favoring one population, sometimes the other. In Cyprus, they pitted the Greeks against the Turks. In Sri Lanka, it was the Tamils against the Sinhalese. In Ireland, it was the Catholics against the Protestants. The list goes on.“
