Damon albarn is a bitch but that lil homemade necklace he wore in the early 90s is poppin
someone once said that the necklace harnesses all his twink energy and when it broke that’s when he stopped being a twink and I have been not able to stop thinking about it.
working in healthcare has both radicalized me further left and made me like so more frustrated with ideologues for whom the good enough is the enemy of the perfect. Like I truly believe the best solution for most of our health problems is to provide people with universal healthcare, universal housing, and universal basic income. I think anything less than that will be ultimately less effective in noticeably improving the life of the majority of my patients who are most desperately need help. Also these patients need care now and will not live to see the realization of a better, kinder society. If we refuse any partial or compromised improvement, people will unnecessarily suffer and die. But also I think we need uncompromising leftists who take principled stands and drag us further left as a result. But also they are not always good on committees. It’s a difficult balancing act, one I’ve never (and likely will never) fully reconciled within mythm344444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444uiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii sorry the cat jumped on the keyboard but she’s right you know, you work as best you can with the world you got while trying to make it better, I think that’s what she was trying to type, but when I pressed her on details about that, she dumped ten pounds of cat litter on the floor

Guys.
Y’all.
I…
I just. I just… i have discovered something. And I have laughed too much. I have laughed every time I have tried to explain it to someone. I cannot get through this.
Look. Okay.
There are two things you need to know, here.
First: There’s a style of Greek pottery that was popular during the Hellenic period, for which most of the surviving examples are from southern Italy. We call them ‘fish plates’ because, well, they’re plates, and they’re decorated with fish (and other marine life).
Like this one, currently in the Met:
Or this one, currently in the Cleveland Museum of Art:
They’re very cool. We’re not 100% sure what they were for, because most of the surviving ones were found as grave goods, but that’s a different post.
The second thing you need to know is that when we (Classics/archaeology/whatever as a discipline) have a collection of artefacts, like vases, sculptures, paintings, etc. and we do not know the name of the artist, but we’re pretty sure one artist made X, Y and Z artefacts, we come up with a name for that artist. There are a whole bunch of things that could be the source for the name, e.g. where we found most of their work (The Dipylon Master) or the potter with whom they worked (the Amasis Painter), a favourite theme (The Athena Painter), the Museum that ended up with the most famous thing they did (The Berlin Painter) or a notable aspect of their style. Like, say, The Eyebrow Painter.
Guess what kind of pottery the Eyebrow Painter made?
