"Israeli settlers attack"? Not "Clashes between Israeli settlers and journalists"? Gee, I wonder why.

CNN headline:
"West Bank: Israeli settlers attack journalists, including CNN"

Artemisia Gentileschi painted Lucretia's suicide three times. This one stuck with me the most. It's believed she used herself as a model. In the story of Lucretia, she kills herself after being raped. Artemisia was also raped as a teenager. (1/2) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucreti...

In May 1611 at the age of 17 years old, Artemisia Gentileschi was raped by Agostino Tassi, a 31-year-old friend and colleague of her father, Orazio Gentileschi.[4] Tassi promised marriage following the rape, which would have spared Artemisia the shame of being considered "impure" according to contemporary standards. However, he declined to uphold his promise and the Gentileschi family took him to court, accusing him of rape and other crimes against the family.

During the trial, Artemisia was subjected to torture as part of her testimony in order to prove she was telling the truth. Metal rings were placed around her fingers and tightened while she spoke, causing agonizing pain and potentially jeopardizing her blossoming painting career.[6] Tassi, on the other hand, was not required to undergo a similar experience and while ultimately convicted and banished, the sentence was not enforced.[4] Like Lucretia, Artemisia Gentileschi made painful sacrifices to maintain her honor and virtue. While some scholars believe that Artemisia would have used her own experience to depict the anguish on the subject's face (which may possibly represent a self-portrait), others observe a woman who, like Artemisia, was determined to choose her own destiny.[4]

My dad was a borderline swiftie for a brief period and now he makes this face every time he hears something new about her

I think I've gotten the hang of guessing time periods reasonably well, so I've been using hints for place. Like for this inscrutable "winged pendant". I still did perfect on guessing time period and only got 900 points for place even with the place hint.

A muted green pendant made from stone that looks sort of like a whale tail in my opinion

So excited to present this trophy to the Atlanta Hawks!!

Gold trophy that says "only team to win a game against the new york knicks in the '26 playoffs with the exception of games that were disrupted by the president attending and taking a nap"

I think if you're rooting for an American men's national team at this point, you're just kind of stupid at best and a sincere jingoist at worst.

Genocide isn't just about killing people. It's also about erasing them.

Republican state Rep. David Clark of Buford is introducing a resolution to rename Sawnee Mountain as "Trump Mountain," a move that has drawn criticism from the mayor of Cumming and from a family that donated hundreds of acres to protect the land. Clark is one of 10 candidates running for lieutenant governor in Georgia.

It is believed that Native Americans may have used a natural clearing atop the mountain called the Indian Seats for ceremonial purposes.[5] As white settlers migrated to the area, now known as Cumming, a local Cherokee named Sawnee helped them adjust to the native land. As a well skilled carpenter and farmer he was known throughout the land. He was later driven away from their native lands by these white settlers and died while traveling on the Trail of Tears. The range was named in his honor.

My sister requested a simple UFO stamp and then she bought some art from Goodwill and we stamped it. I also stamped a tank from Goodwill. Very fun idea and the results are cute! #linocut #printsky

Do you understand how threads work? You agreed with derogatory stereotypes about people based on an article you apparently didn't even read the first three words of.

Saw Alison Krauss tonight. Wish I'd been recording when the guitarist switched out for a banjo and the crowd cheered.

RIP Ted Turner. I will always think of this story. I can't endorse a business owner forcing an employee into using a different name in order to promote one of his products, but I can find it funny. www.reddit.com/r/mlb/commen...

I somehow doubt it's a coincidence that this book shares a title with a taylor swift song news.artnet.com/multimedia/w...

The first quarter of the 21st century is now behind us. Yet a pervasive sense of cultural stagnation persists: many observers and participants feel that creativity across the arts, media, and popular culture has slowed, leaving society with a muted sense of innovation and excitement.

David Marx’s new book, Blank Space: A Cultural History of the Twenty-First Century, provides an incisive guide through the cultural touchstones that have defined the last twenty-five years. Marx examines how commercialization gradually came to dominate contemporary culture, propelled by rapid technological advancements and a shifting cultural mindset that favors profit-driven formulas over experimentation. He argues that these dynamics—spanning art, literature, music, film, and fashion—have stymied radical innovation, making the opening decades of the new century some of the least transformative since the invention of the printing press. As Marx observes, there is now “a conspicuous blank space where art and creativity used to be.”

love a protest that is so vague and lacking in conviction or pointed commentary that no one can really object to it and also requires me to give up nothing

Made a homemade "Kraken" shirt to see Florence and the Machine tonight. Please politely ignore how wildly off-center the back is. The tentacle came out so much better than I expected. #printsky #linocut #artsky #florenceandthemachine #fanart #traditionalart

I didn't have a cute or funny sign at No Kings 3. I said the most important thing I could think of in the only way I could think of. I know politicians know the "liberation" thing is bs, but I hope something will get through to the people who believe and support them.
