So, what you don't read in the NYT obit: beloved author Julie Powell had covid 6 weeks ago (she tweeted a bunch about it). There are countless men and women getting heart attacks, strokes, and blood clots following their infections. The covid public health disaster is infinite.
ALL men+ women in their 40s+ who get covid need to be on high alert for signs of heart attack+ stroke in the 6 months following. Maybe longer.
It is *horrific* that she passed. Her husband Eric is an editor for Archaeology magazine, so this touches my world. I hope this helps to raise awareness.
Anti vax trolls and conspiracy whack a doodlers all are getting blocked, so a preemptive warning to all you shitchokes 😘

Just a reminder that I block with the same wild abandon I consume Ghirardelli chocolate chips, zero regard for anything but my own needs. Go scream at a brick wall, maybe it will care more 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻
Enjoy the knowledge that I am
living my best life, and you spend your days screaming like a baby with a loaded diaper at strangers.
(always dudes)

There have been many threads on #AncientApocalypse the @netflix series. And, I have a different perspective. Graham Hancock doesn't know how to dig, or run an excavation/survey. It's like saying I cannot do heart surgery. It's just a fact. Not mean. He's not an archaeologist.
That's the core flaw with the series. Aside from great threads that @FlintDibble @jens2go and so many others have done. Why would you listen to someone tell you why archaeologists are ALL WRONG when they cannot run a dig, or have basic expertise to read an excavation report?
Graham may reply to this and say "I never said I was an archaeologist or claimed to be one I am a journalist." OK, if you're not qualified in basic archaeology 101, don't have training and cannot dig, how can you critique the thousands of us who do?

Can we talk about how Howard Carter, discoverer of Tut's tomb, was a complete POS narcissist? He was so horrid his professional staff quit. This was 1922+, when many people were Very Bad, and Carter was... special. Stop romanticizing these people.
Even today a number of (foreign) Egyptologists carry on his fine colonialist example of bloated ego, piss poor treatment of Egyptians, general obnoxious behavior, and overall jerkwaddery. 100 years on, and not enough has changed.
"I see wonderful things". Well I see a man, utterly broken, devoid of ability to feel, unable to maintain appropriate adult relationships. Sorry to burst your bubble folks. Carter was a living Red Flag of a man.

Every time I receive an in person conference invitation, I want to print it out, burn it with sage, and host a ghost banishment ceremony
WHY ARE WE MEETING IN PERSON DURING A MASS DISABLING PANDEMIC
Oh, you attended the large conference unmasked and posted about it on twitter? And you got covid and now have long covid? I cannot anymore. Just, cannot.

Seeing as many of you are on the Very Online Blokes Who Shout That NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO DISCUSS ANDREW Committee, when exactly *is* the right time to discuss an alleged pedophile who had his mum pay millions to sweep it under the stolen priceless artifacts from former colonies
Like was there a discussed "time out." A week? A month" "Just hush up forever." I'm SUPER curious why you think defending a pedophile over their victims is ever OK.
Like, I am very sorry for the loss, I respect that Andrew seems capable of loving his mother, also he needs to be put away and never allowed near any child ever again.
