I watched Raiders of the Lost Ark on telly last night, its been ages since i watched it.
It was fun: how handsome Ford is as a young man, how daft the presunptions of whar archaeology is, but it, importantly, reminds us where all archaelogists should stand in the face of fascism.

β€˜Fell the enemies:’ Illini Republicans support ICE amid killings - The Daily Illini In a post that included a graphic of a presumed officer holding a gun to someone's head, Illini Republicans stated that they β€œstand with ICE."

University of Illinois college republicans advocate for executing protesters as β€œtraitors” with art that takes a disturbing killing and makes it even more extreme.

For the day that's in it 4:

A hill that I'll die on: today should be properly called and written "Imbolg", not "Imbolc".
The word has a -g at the end, not a -c.

That wean and his father should never have been abducted by the thugs of ICE.
Now,, the rest of the 3800 weans and their parents need to be released from these concentration camps.
