This is my burner account.
I hate that it's come to this but I might have to start trying the discover feed on main because the chronological feed is getting inundated by a small number of people who will retweet literally anything to the point it's getting unusable.

I need to do more investigation but the Italian version of Athenaze may possibly be an unexploited mine of potential future wojak memes.

There's this weird bit of a medieval Greek poem by Tzetzes where he gives an epilogue on greeting people in their own languages. A later manuscript is fully glossed (a secondary addition) and contains a bizarre obscene extra phrase for the Alanic text.

On an Old Persian kick at the moment, but the Achaemenid royal inscriptions are starting to get a bit repetitive. I might have to switch it up with some Avestan in a bit since these Zoroastrians seem to have more interesting things to say.

Waking up to get a DM to the effect of asking whether I saw the Simon Goldhill news and my immediate only half-joking reaction was "What? Is he in the Epstein files?" and I think that reaction should probably say enough.

I know it's not in my best interests arguing in YouTube comments with MDs pretending to be doctors when they're merely physicians without real (PhD) doctorates, but my god, the world is ending and I can't help myself.

Occasionally when I'm thumbing through old issues of Glotta I'm reminded that in the early 20th century there were two German philologists of Ancient Greek, one named Buttmann and the other named Assmann. Haven't found a Titmann yet though, but I'm sure he's out there.

lmao I just found out that a guy I hate, who had a permanent job at Cambridge and had a very public crashout in The Spectator a year and a half ago, is now a "professor" of Latin at an unaccredited "college" with ties to Jordan Peterson in Savannah, Georgia.

While it is true that Latin nauta is inflected as an a-stem because it is a loanword from Greek ναύτης 'sailor', itself an agent noun in - της formed within Greek to ναῦς 'ship', have you also considered that sailors might also be inflected as though feminine in Latin because they were fabulous?

I just sat down to summarise things from the last three weeks for myself for the sake of my own sanity, and if I were an aspiring novelist of dystopian literature I think I'd say this would be a bit much.

A new rule has been proposed in an online community that I've been involved in for a couple of years now that we can't chat in languages other than English because the mods can't read anything but English and I'm trying to come up with a diplomatic way of saying no, lol.
