The tombstone of Tiberius Claudius Maximus, a cavalryman of Legio VII Claudia, provides us with unique evidence as to how soldiers got ahead in the army.
It records that he was promoted to decurion by Trajan in the Dacian Wars "because he had captured Decebalus [King of Dacia] and brought his head back to him at Ranisstorum"

This reminds of a joke: A young priest asks a wise older priest, "What's the difference between the Jesuit and Dominican Orders?" The older priest says wearily, "Well, actually they have a lot in common. They were both founded by Spaniards, St. Dominic for the Dominicans, and St. Ignatius of Loyola for the Jesuits. They were also both founded to combat heresy: the Dominicans to fight the Albigensians, and the Jesuits to fight the Lutherans." The younger priest says, "I see. But where do the Jesuit and Dominican Orders really differ?" The older priest looks at him and says, "Well, have you met any Albigensians lately?"
I hung out with Oliver Stone twice via a mutual friend. He was very intelligent and interesting, and a little nuts. He indulged my questions about his films and we talked a lot about history.

The most captivating thing about Jennifer Lawrence’s face was her heavy-lidded eyes, which gave her that enigmatic, mysterious look. But now she’s gone and had the trendy upper blepharoplasty, and all that charm is gone.
She doesn’t even look like herself anymore. What a shame.

My dear Wormwood, Four years suits us. Better still is the native who calls it mercy while his own suffer. Preferring the stranger to one’s neighbor is the precise inversion of the Enemy’s law- our finest recruits march under that banner. Your affectionate uncle, Screwtape.

I regret to inform you that the only political party who actually believes their own rhetoric is the Libertarian Party and this has had disastrous political, moral, and social consequences for everyone involved

I'm very very sad tonight. I just learned that Stephen Biesty passed away in 2024 at 63... He is one of my favorite artist. Rest in peace.

Africans have never done this for Whites. And still, we don’t mind. It’s about us helping those in NEED.
But the Africans are always in need. The schools fail. The wells dry up. The farms collapse from lack of maintenance. Homes, entire cities are destroyed and blighted. Even the iron bars of the drains we build them are dug up. They stab and shoot and kill eachother with no end, filling every hospital.
For as long as we can remember, Whites have been trying to uplift Africans.
We look at them, and through our own deep empathy, we see ourselves. Where they are thirsty, we bring clean water. Where they are hungry, we plant crops and bring food. Where they are sick, we heal. Where they are homeless, we build homes. Where they are uneducated, we build schools.

I just want to make a point real quick. For 30 years the Minnesota GOP supported and defended the Somalian community in Minnesota. GOP voters were told "These are natural conservative voters". The Minnesota GOP called their own voters racist when concerns of crime and non assimilation were brought up.
Somalians have never once ever voted for the GOP. They are 80-20 Democrat voters and this was after the GOP catered to them and turned over their own communities in Minnesota to them for 30 years.
Below is a video of the 3rd most powerful congressman in the national GOP calling voters in St. Cloud racist for not wanting Somalians being dumped in their city.
Anyone who tells you to ignore how a group votes and tells you to instead cater to them so that group one day votes for you is either lying or stupid.

1/ The use of writing in the Minoan and Mycenaean worlds reflects two entirely different sociopolitical and religious structures. Although Linear B' is an evolution of Linear A', the manner and purpose for which the two societies used these systems present profound contrasts.

Mais on n’aime pas la France pour ses valeurs mdr. C’est vraiment une phrase d’allogène, ça. On aime la France parce que c’est notre pays, celui de notre peuple. C’est un lien de sang et d’héritage. On aime aussi la France de 1600, tu crois qu’elle partageait les mêmes valeurs?😭

“‘I was asked if I liked Brazil. I said no, because the country is full of negroes. They didn't like that at all. You can't say anything against negroes. The only merit they have is that they've been mistreated, and as Bernard Shaw observed, that's no merit.’”

No president since Calvin Coolidge has done more to restrict immigration than Donald Trump
New from NYT: By executive action alone, the Trump administration has accomplised the largest cuts to legal immigration since the 1920s.
Muslim and African migration is down 90%. Visa issuance to Asia — including India and China — and Latin America has fallen across the board.
