A quotation from Hemingway

No catalogue of horrors ever kept men from war. Before the war you always think that it’s not you that dies. But you will die, brother, if you go to it long enough.

Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961) American writer
Essay (1935-09), “Notes on the Next War,” Esquire, Vol. 4, No. 3

We put up an ad at a local cafe, and Beck answered it. | remember him walking through the gate, barefoot, with a guitar. He had on an ironic t-shirt or a bowling shirt, | don't remember. He lived in our little granny unit for about 6 months. He was quiet, and gentle and had a penetrating stare. My mother-in-law bought him some sheets. Once he came into the house, a started playing a dulcimer - and instrument he had never played before - like he'd been playing for years. He and | went to the laundromat, where he'd tell me stories of traveling through Appalachia like a hobo. He was the real McCoy. We went to the Grand Library in Glendale, where we would check out really cool albums from the 1930s and 40s. He played the guitar on the little porch of the granny unit. He had a big reel-to-reel thing. | distinctly remember his friends visiting, and laughing and improvising songs just like Loser. He had an old girlfriend named Rain, who he was still getting over. He played at the local cafe with his beat up guitar, barefoot, and a harmonica strapped to his head. Awesome songs that would appear on his EP cassette later on. It was a small cafe on Vermont Street and Sunset. Not many people showed up. One night a gorgeous, ethereal girl glided in, like a bohemian in flowing dress. She was Hope Sandoval from Mazzy Star. | swear to God, when Beck first walked through the gate of our house, | KNEW he would make it big. One of my biggest regrets in life was not getting to know him better. | was too shy. | felt too "old" at only 29 years old. Years later, | turned on the radio and heard Loser. | shrieked and knew instantly it was HIM! Beck is a prodigy.

Wild timeline: Cleopatra lived closer to the Moon landing than to the construction of the Great Pyramid. 🏛️🚀

The Great Pyramid went up around 2560 BCE. Cleopatra was born in 69 BCE — about 2,500 years after the Pyramid. Her reign ended in 30 BCE, roughly 2,000 years before Apollo 11 touched down.

To Cleopatra, "ancient Egypt" was already ancient history.

Author's notes to follow in a comment.

A quotation from Hannah Arendt

Nobody knows what is going to happen because so much depends on an enormous amount of variables, or, in other words, on hasard. On the other hand, if you look back on history, then retrospectively, even though all this was contingent, you can tell a story that makes sense. How is that possible? That is the problem for every philosophy of history. How is it possible that in retrospect things always look as though they could not have happened otherwise?

Hannah Arendt (1906–1975) German-American philosopher, political theorist
Interview (1973-10) with Roger Errera, Office de Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française (ORTF)

In earlier times, the Cumbrian king Gwenddoleu ap Ceidio died at the Battle of Arthuret, in 573, in a fight over Caer-Laverock. This drove his bard, Myrddin Wyllt, insane and he ran off into the woods, an act that possibly inspired the character of Merlin in Arthurian legend.

Texas continued to claim all the territory north and east of the Rio Grande, which included a large stretch of land that it had never effectively controlled in present-day eastern New Mexico. New Mexico had long prohibited slavery, a fact that affected the debate over its territorial status...Outside of Texas, many Southern leaders supported Texas's claims to New Mexico, in order to secure as much territory as possible for the expansion of slavery."

Arthur Miller quote

the verbal/online history of UO has become a meaningless "remember that time Lord British died?" meme, repeated ad nauseam in articles written by people who were not yet born when UO launched in 97

forgotten in that wake is that UO wasn't just an 'online game' as we have come to understand it in the post-2000s. it was a fully populated online *world*, complete with complex social hierarchies and ad-hoc political structures.

and not just 'inside the game'. these social and political groups were organized in other networks like irc and web forums, and the game was its playfield.

the developers facilitated this by adding "guilds" to the game, which you could join/leave. they also, imho more interestingly, had a House of Commons: an online monthly IRC/web chat where players directly talked with developers about game systems, programming and bugs.

this wasn't a "report a bug" form. it was a fully involved conversation about how to deal with complex issues like player killing, real estate, ecosystem problems, and virtual economies.

developers took the feedback seriously, and implemented new ideas that players brought forward. some of the players involved in these chats eventually became UO developers themselves.

it was one of the most fascinating experiments in direct democracy i've ever seen online. by the mid-2000s when Origin closed, the House of Commons system was largely abandoned, and player feedback became much less important to the game.

"Stratics" became the repo for keeping minutes of these chats. here they are, decades later:

OnThisDay in 1909, a French newspaper carried the first instalment of a new story by Gaston Leroux, set in the sumptuous, haunted world of the Palais Garnier opera house. The paper – called ‘Le Gaulois’ – had printed the first installment of ‘The Phantom of the Opera’.

Trump has often said his favorite USA #history era is THE GUILDED AGE. he, of course, uses the term unironically; refusing to understand the term as derogatory. which is why he went about gilding every nook and cranny in The White House

Trump’s taste has always been of a poorly educated man’s version of what a rich person’s tastes should be. he has often said The Gilded Age and the Versailles Era (Louis XIV-LouisXVI) are his favorite. LouisXVI is for whom the guillotine was invented.

all of USA’s government and political apparatus is built upon the #FirstAmendment. there is no constitution, no rule of law without the #1A.

Democrats should haul their asses back to DC, and use whatever rules maneuvers to start an #emergency session of #Congress.

if #GOP #MAGA #Republicans won't abide by the 1a, why would they abide by our #votes in November or ever?

Proving the existence of Jesus is a topic that has intrigued historians and theologians alike. Numerous historical texts, including writings by Josephus and Tacitus, reference Jesus, providing evidence outside of the Bible. This suggests that Jesus was a real figure in history. #History #Jesus #Evidence #Faith #Apologetics

holy shit. i never noticed that, buried deep in the documentary, there are photos of the hotel basement that i explored briefly in the video.

these were taken over 15 years ago, and you can see how much that hole has changed. the floor settled, much of the ductwork collapsed, and the drywall fell down

this is *exactly* where i was standing 15 years later.

a few years ago i drove up to the NWT to visit some family, and i made a side-trip to Pine Point.

i hadn't seen it for over 30 years - the very last time i had seen it, the entire town was being hauled away by semi trucks carrying bungalows on trailers.

when we arrived, i couldn't recognize any of it. what had been hundreds of concrete foundations and asphalt had been replaced entirely by millions of poplar trees and wild grasses. i could barely make out the pavement beneath it as new saplings erupted through it and turned the road into rubble.

eventually i stumbled upon the foundation of the pine point hotel - it had been completely backfilled to prevent people from exploring it. but one area - near the employee bathrooms as it turned out - had collapsed, and opened a hole to the surface.

i turned on my camera and crawled inside the hole.

i've never shown anyone this video. i'm not sure why. it felt disrespectful i guess - like a kind of voyeurism. but today - four years to the day i recorded it - i realized that no one else might ever get to see the pine point hotel basement.

so here are a few minutes of my exploration, completely silent aside from the sounds of my feet. forgive me for not providing a strong play-by-play in the alt description, but i'm still baffled by the many broken things i saw in there. maybe you'll have better eyes for it.

after 15 years, i'm always surprised by how few people ever saw/played/viewed the flash/interactive documentary Welcome to Pine Point.

it would turn out to be the final love letter to interactive multimedia on the web, before - for the vast majority of users - computers were turned into passive video viewing devices

mercifully, the authors ported it to html5 a few years ago. it lost a tiny bit of its interactivity along the way - the flash->html5 ports never quite work well, but the overall core experience is still there. i highly recommend giving it a try - it's funny, warm, and soulful. like falling in love with an old polaroid.

🧵

this thread is devoted to an obscure bit of northern canadian history - the ghost town of Pine Point, Northwest Territories. it was a mining boom town that exploded out of the ground in the 1960s, and was completely deserted by the late 80s. just 25 years from nothing, back to nothing. all for lead and zinc.

i grew up in a nearby town that watched it flourish and completely disappear by the time i was ten years old.

when i was eight, my parents drove us to its "town garage sale" which turned out to be everyone selling everything they owned - including their houses, which were carted off on huge trailers that very same day.

it never occurred to me that a town could just vanish, leaving almost no trace behind. just a few asphalt roads and concrete foundations of hundreds of houses were left there.

the only thing that let us know it once existed are the memories of the folks who lived there.

A quotation from The Bible

Some of them left a name behind them,
   so that their praises are still sung.
While others have left no memory,
   and disappeared as though they had not existed,
they are now as though they had never been,
   and so too, their children after them.
 
[εἰσὶν αὐτῶν οἳ κατέλιπον ὄνομα
τοῦ ἐκδιηγήσασθαι ἐπαίνους·
καὶ εἰσὶν ὧν οὐκ ἔστιν μνημόσυνον
καὶ ἀπώλοντο ὡς οὐχ ὑπάρξαντες
καὶ ἐγένοντο ὡς οὐ γεγονότες
καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτῶν μετ᾽ αὐτούς.]

Is This Satan's Little Season? The Truth About the Rest of the Dead

You are being tested. Satan the Devil is your exam proctor. Will you pass or fail?

This video is interesting. I will add a few things to consider:

People are finally starting to get it. The lake of fire and brimstone is a metaphor.

This era is the age of the lake of fire and brimstone.

YOU are in the lake of fire and brimstone. Now. Today. It is not somewhere you go when you die a bad boy. You have already been a bad boy or girl and you have already died and gone to hell.

YOU are the dead. You are dead and in hell. Now. Today.

This world age is the hell of the Holy Bible. To escape hell is to escape the blindness and wickedness of this age and all its filthy fake history, fake religion, and fake politics.

The whole world has been deceived. History is fake. Religion is fake. Science is fake. Everything is fake. It's all a pile of half truths and lies.

The only way to see through the fog of lies is to look toward the Savior, Jesus of Nazareth.
