[NEW VIDEO] Meet the translator behind Christopher Nolan's Odyssey Emily Wilson has been vilified and lied about on social media for the last two months. In fact, the last 9 years She was my former professor of ancient Greek at Penn. So, naturally, I wanted to talk with her about translating the Odyssey and being a public scholar Our conversation covers the gods and heroes of the Odyssey, as well as topics of slavery, feminism, vegetarianism, and carnivory. We dive into various approaches to poetry and translation and the reception of Greek myth. And of course we touch on the new movie It's a great conversation, and I hope it humanizes her and debunks many of the lies about her Watch it now! Link: piped.video/9p5VeyX1PJE

It only took 48 hours and now I'm seeing loads of conspiratorial tweets about fake votes and election stealing Buckle up, cause once the shock of the election results wear off, they'll go back to lying

Democrats should do the Stefanik college president hearings in reverse. Get college presidents on the record saying that students have the right to peacefully protest and to say controversial--even offensive-- things. Get them on the record that scholars should not punished for their views and that universities will protect foreign students targeted for their views. Demand that the last three years of McCarthyism and cowardice end now.

THIS JUST IN: Democrats have FLIPPED the Texas State Board of Education! This is a monumental win for Texas students, families, and the entire education community in our great state. Congratulations to our incredible candidates!

Elon deleting all his tweets 🤣🤣🤣

The big lesson of the Biden years is that you have to prosecute these people. You can’t just move on. You need to make the next generation of grifters and hate mongers scared for their lives.

Watching all these freaks wake up and realize that this website is so incredibly far off from reality has almost made the abuse and harassment of staying on here worth it

Oh, you’re in a red state? Your bio says Texas

Wait is he still a Democrat? No way, this fucker should just leave now cause he'll be irrelevant soon

One small issue though, the Big Beautiful Bill takes effect in January that’s going to fuck a lot of people & like clockwork, people will forget it was passed by Republicans.

I hope this is right, but not as optimistic that we should each read our personal bugbear into the results of an election that was decided by millions of voters with their own personal reasons Either way, I'm looking forwards to a legislature that will hopefully value the opinions of scientists and educators more than cranks

If you hate anti-science, anti-intellectual #pseudoarchaeology, follow my feed.

Let's Fucking Go! Do it

Elizabeth Warren for majority leader

Every tech bro rn

Imagine if Elon's $500 million had been spent on education or healthcare. Or the arts. Anything.

For the love of all that is good, Democrats, do not squander this. The voters have given you a mandate. Use it. Be the party of working people. Be the anti-war party. Be the anti-corruption party. Be the party that ignores the Senate Parliamentarian. We cannot go back to business as usual.

How do you handle affordability if you don't go after corruption that costs billions? How do you handle affordability if you don't change a system that always favors the wealthy? It's not about getting even, it's about creating a fair society. That requires punishing crooks

Hundreds of Minnesotans are leaving their "I voted" stickers at the site where Alex Pretti was murdered by ICE agents.

I like El-Sayed, but this is the wrong response here As a US Senator, he will be voting, proposing, and influencing foreign policy decisions that impact people around the world. To abdicate his ethical responsibility towards humanity as a whole is a bad look. It's attitudes like this that leads to the Iran war and a whole host of other imperialistic actions by the US Plus there are millions of US citizens who live overseas. To be oblivious to the fact that he has constituents, US citizens from his state, in the UK is a minor point but worth being up. He works for them too

Hot damn, he followed through. Don't screw with HistoryTubers 💪
