Why do our elite dress up like them at their most formal affairs? How do the penguins of Heard and McDonald Islands maintain such magnificent livery in the supposed absence of trade or economic activity?
Wake up sheeple.
It was never lizard people pulling the strings.
It was penguins all along.
And yesterday was our day of liberation from them.

Evergreen

This is one of the most interesting and autistic things I’ve ever read. I can’t believe I just sat here for half an hour, completely mesmerized, taking the entire article in. It’s long but well worth the read.

Summary: The article "HBD&D" by John Carter combines human biodiversity (HBD)—the study of genetic differences between human populations—with Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) game mechanics, assigning real-world traits like intelligence or strength to D&D-style stats to explore how human variation might look in a role-playing game.

"A prominent computer scientist who has spent 20 years publishing academic papers on cryptography, privacy, and cybersecurity has gone incommunicado, had his professor profile, email account, and phone number removed by his employer, Indiana University, and had his homes raided by the FBI. No one knows why."

The Convergence Chronicles

In 2015, I pointed out that convergence prevents an organization from being able to perform its primary purpose. And we’ve seen this playing out in diverse organizations from Boeing to Warner Bros. But what is remarkable about this chronicle of the convergence and collapse of a voluntary writing organization by Fandom Pulse is the way […]

NEW BOOK — Le Morte D'Arthur

https://www.imperiumpress.org/shop/le-morte-darthur/

Sir Thomas Malory’s Le Morte d’Arthur is the foundational work of Arthurian legend, shaping Western literature from the Renaissance to today.

The Imperium Press edition includes extensive scholarly annotations, parsing each of Malory’s obscure word choices, bringing the text out of a medieval world and into our own. This definitive edition will ensure that the quest for the Grail, Camelot’s shining promise, and the tragic fall of Arthurian Britain, will all remain profoundly relevant for all time.

The Trump Tariffs

They’re hitting Switzerland harder than we expected, and the UK considerably less than we expected, but this will not interrupt our plans nor is it likely to change our book prices. If we have to, we can obviously increase our manufacturing in the USA, but some of the improvements in the coming payment systems should […]

Lesbos, Mitilene, Hecte

Mytilene was one of the mints that struck electrum coins for a very long time. This hecte from Mytilene, minted around 500 BC, is made of electrum. The coin represents two animals, a roaring lion and a calf's head.
The calf was the emblem of the city of Mytilene. Hence, the lion on the obverse can not be understood as another symbol of the city, but as a divine feature. He was the companion of several gods, like Kybele, Dionysos and Apollon. Since Apollon was Mytilene's main god, the lion on the coin may well be understood as a substitute for Apollon – all the more so as Apollon's bust replaced the lion's head on coins minted later.
