Ok, I think I’ve found a library who are interested in carrying out this digitization project. I won’t say too much until it’s confirmed, but now we need someone at the National Archives of Egypt to reach out to for a collaboration. If you’ve ever done research involving the…
Ok, I think this is actually worth a shot. We already got one prospective volunteer. If anyone would be interested in contributing to such a project, or know someone who might, reply here or DM me! Anyone can join; bonus points if you have experience with archival research

I think you guys are underestimating how bad Democrats are about to drop the ball
Putting 2026 wins onto an Electoral College map creates an electoral hydrogen bomb.

Congress tried to do the same during the Biden era. “Terrorism” has just become a label for when you’re so “dangerous” the government has to immediately take away your rights but not actually dangerous enough to put on trial with, like, evidence.
SCOOP: The Trump administration is considering an executive order that would list some nonprofit organizations as having terrorist ties, a move that would immediately suspend their tax-exempt status and cripple their operations. Officials are reviewing an arcane law that would allow President Trump to use an untested part of the tax code and write an executive order declaring groups linked to terrorism. Those groups would then automatically lose their coveted tax-exempt status. Story w/ @RichardRubinDC wsj.com/politics/policy/trum…

yeah cuneus is latin, but here are some fun etymologies for you: canal/cane/cannon/canyon and chanterelle (like the mushrooms) have sumerian etymologies, and alcohol and sesame have an akkadian etymology. and chameleon was a calque from akkadian.

Charlie Kirk once said that Texas would never turn blue in his lifetime. And what do you know, he was right.

Sudan 🇸🇩: SAF advancing on the Kordofan front after forcing a major breakthrough into RSF territory yesterday.
Sudan 🇸🇩: a significant breakthrough on the Kordofan front today as the SAF advanced both west and south of the city of El Obeid, seizing several strategic localities including Abu Qu'ad and Kazgeil. RSF fighters simply melted away.

It’s time for ICE to take the masks off, turn the body cameras on, and start answering to the American people who pay for their bloated budget.

Open the schools!
It's just not probable. Texas was stolen!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The post's calculation assumes 2.9 million voters all chose one candidate. In the 2026 Texas general election, about 9.9 million ballots were cast, with Democrats winning the Senate race 55.1% to 43.0% and Governor 52.8% to 45.7%. Both Republican candidates conceded. txelectionresults.com/2026-general-e… viewfromthegallery.com/breakdown/texa…

You know what would solidify the Dem's stronghold for generations to come? Doing something about the $1.863 trillion in student debt people around the country carry. Hit people's pockets quick and hard.

They say the past is a foreign country, but Egypt looks the same as ever @stendhalist
A 2nd-century account book from Roman Egypt records the scale of corruption & extortion by the authorities. At various months, large payments are listed to: "police officials", "police chief", "to a soldier at his demand." One entry simply records 2,200 drachmae "for extortion."

EmiRATi talking about democracy 😭😭 post one bad word about MBZ bro I dare you
A dark day for democracy. Abdul El-Sayed may have won the election, but he should not mistake victory for immunity from scrutiny. Every broken promise and every failure to deliver will be documented and presented. Michigan will be watched. Closely.

Of course, even if a majority of Jews were Zionists, anti-Zionism still wouldn’t be antisemitism, any more than anti-segregation would be anti-white when the majority of southern American whites supported segregation
for those who claim that anti zionism = antisemitism because ‘a majority of jews are zionists’ and you can’t argue with the majority of jews: jstreet.org/press/j-street-2…

Worth noting MSNOW has never asked a single politician what their plan was to protect Muslims or to promote “Muslim safety”. I studied the past three years from ten major media outlets and found Jewish safety was mentioned 4,200% more than Muslim/Arab safety, at 254-to-6
MSNOW: What is your message now to Jewish voters nationally and what you will do to protect them? Abdul El-Sayed: I’m committed to Jewish safety, and we are united against discrimination. The U.S. spends billions to carry out genocide and apartheid against Palestinians. The genocide in Gaza with our complicity is continuing right now. Nobody wants to talk about that.
