Lisa Kudrow nailed it! This was the best
Republican impersonation I have ever seen, I was even getting upset thinking this was real. Love it!

But there are pockets of goodness elsewhere. Come to Savannah. You can skip the rest of the state.

Well, we'll see what the Mother of God has to say about this.

Not only will this not shut them up (alas) but Art History majors will remain the butt of humor for a certain type of ignorant person.

Strong chin: conquer Gaul.

Weak chin: fail to conquer Ukraine.

Well, I’m about to find out from my Greek history class. I just posted the syllabus. Let’s see how many drop before the first class.

If Nichols' cat can sway someone's notions of either history or policy, who's the chump?

Yes but consider. You fly often. I fly once or twice a year. My Amex Platinum Delta card was once good enough to get me into the Delta lounge, which was nice. Then they changed the rules and insisted on a new card with an annual fee of $650. Suddenly no lounge for me. Not worth $650. I’m still mad.

Have they moved all the Tut exhibits? They were still in the process just a few years ago. A lot of Tut was still in the old museum.

Probably not Bernie. But O’Malley would’ve won.

If you’re an immigrant with legal status who’s committed 0 crimes you can be sent to a torture prison where you’ll be raped and dehumanized.

If you’re old pals with Trump and ran a pedophile ring you get sent to a cushy minimum security prison despite being ineligible because you’re a sex offender.

That’s Romisch-Germanisches Museum, of course.

The Romisch-Germanisch in Cologne is closed for repairs but some items are on display elsewhere & include the amazing glass cup from the 4th c. crowned with a Greek text β€œdrink, live beautifully (kallos) forever.” (Not my translation; sorry, I haven’t figured out how to type Greek on my phone yet)

Frozen in time. This shopfront in Rome’s historic centre features granite columns with Ionic capitals, believed to be originally part of the ancient Teatro di Pompeo complex, re-used to decorate a mediaeval portico. The street is Via dei Giubbonari, just off Campo de’ Fiori.

Particularly given how much they brag about their service in their advertising.

A fixture of my younger years. We played An Evening Wasted With Tom Lehrer so many times that I still have half the album memorized.

Point taken but I meant no judgement. I learned to cook largely because my spouse was herself disabled.

More positively, though I recognize much of my food is prepared-I don’t make the gnocchi though I do put together the Gorgonzola sauce-I cook an average of 30-45 minutes a day & find it one the most relaxing times of the day (usually). People should learn to cook- they don’t know they’re missing.

You have no idea how much this pains alumni like me.

🚨🚨🚨 Jeffrey Epstein during a 2010 deposition:

Q. Have you ever socialized with Donald Trump in the presence of females under the age of
18?
A: Though l'd like to answer that question, at least today l'm going to have to assert my Fifth, Sixth, and 14th Amendment rights, sir.
