What I think is really interesting about the papyrus account of the workers building the tomb of Rameses III going on strike to demand better wages is really fascinating to me because if you look at the description given by the royal scribe you see that there was an attempt to satisfy the workers by bringing a large amount of food at once but that was rebuffed by the workers who declared that it wasn’t just that they were hungry at the moment but had serious charges to bring that “something bad had been done in this place of Pharoah” (is poor wages and mistreatment). They understood themselves as having long term economic interests as a -class- and organized together knowing that by doing so they could put forward their demands collectively. It so strongly flies in the face of narratives that are like “in this Time and Place people were happy to be serve because they believed in the God-King and maybe you get some intellectual outliers but certainly no common person questioned that”. If historical sources might paint that sorta picture of cultural homogeneity it is because those sources sought not to describe something true but invent a myth for the stability of a regime.
A Daily Mail article on the shooter. Funny how we have to rely on UK news stories for the best most detailed information...
But anyhow, key quote from the article:
According to the chief, Hale and no criminal history and said he did not know of any history of mental illness, though investigators were still looking into that.
No history of mental illness, got that? A female, thinks she's a male, but that's all an indication of mental stability apparently, no history of mental illness. None at all. Nothing intuaitively obvious to the most casual observer that would indicate she might be mentally ill.
Sen. Megan Hunt: "We are blowing up this session. The session is over and it's on your terms because the terms were made clear to you for the last 4-6 weeks. You ignored that, you didn't care. Hating trans kids in Nebraska was more important to you than the rest of the session."
Vote with me and block this bill or very, very few bills get passed this year. Blackmail.
Good News! The Vaccines were Harmless!! (except when they weren't) The Vaccines were TOTALLY GOOD! (except when they weren't) Bombshell Vax Analysis Finds $147 Billion In Economic Damage, Tens Of Millions Injured Or Disabled A new report estimates that 26.6 million people were injured, 1.36 million disabled, and 300,000 excess deaths can be attributed to COVID-19 vaccine damages in 2022 alone, which cost the economy nearly $150 billion.
Watching the 6 minute bodycam video of the Nashville metro police take out the tranny school shooter was stunning. To avoid further embarrassment, I suspect the Uvalde Texas police department will refrain from viewing it.
Twitter "Sens. Hunt, M. Cavanaugh, and Conrad dropped 742 motions on the bills that are currently out on the floor.
Cavanaugh tells me with the change in rules, they are going to continue to control the session moving forward unless #neleg drops measure targeting LGBTQ Nebraskans [protecting kids from sex change operations]."

Lovely, serene.
The city of Seattle is making an effort to clean up the homeless camps. Surprisingly, they found a stolen, and opened ATM in the camp.
It's become a real fad to back a stolen truck through the front windows of a business, and steal the ATM........or grab as much alcohol as you can!!
And just like that, Hard Lake is gone and Soft Lake is back. Hope there aren't any ice fishermen under that lovely water...
Wow. First thing I see when I arrive.
StuNNing.

Apparently, someone has offered $6 billion for the Washington Commanders football team!!
$6 billion ain't what it used to be!!
