9 An egg dance is a traditional Easter game in which eggs are laid on the ground or floor and the goal is to dance among them, damaging as few as possible. The egg was a symbol of the rebirth of the earth in Pagan celebrations of spring, and was adopted by early Christians as a symbol of the rebirth of man at Easter.

22 Then the great egg dance, the special dance of the season, began. A hundred eggs were scattered over a level space covered with sand, and a young couple, taking hands, began the dance. If they finished without breaking an egg they were betrothed, and not even an obdurate parent could oppose the marriage.

At the price of eggs now a $100k dowry would be cheaper.

37 The 80 years war in the Netherlands would start about a decade after this painting.

The Netherlands had been fairly rich before the war and came out of it with a trading empire that made them richer.

And then the Dutch eventually they sort of gave up being a major power.

59 The Egg Dance - Pieter Aertsen

This is so much fun! Faux Serious Comment: Mr. Aertsen's Egg Dance reminds us that there is a universal human continuity that transcends centuries and technological change that always resolves with this key notion - we, given half a chance, are debaucherous drunks.

Without a doubt: would hang.

Gerry Ford fell and Chevy Chase made a spectacle out of it every Saturday night(!)

127 Why haven't I heard about this artist before? He is wonderful with his use of brilliant, realistic still life (something I always enjoy), the use of color, the way each figure is an individual, the style of landscapes in the background (hello, Mona Lisa), and the way he shows everyday life in the area. They are visually interesting and educational, not to mention being able to see the influence he had on later artists.

Thanks for this one, CBD. It's a great painting to end the week.

That's an interesting little digression. The model was apparently James Whistler's girlfriend. And she was hot. There's another painting by Courbet called "Sleep," which appears to depict this model and another inventing the scissor.

What did he say exactly? In 1938 Poland demanded and got a small piece of Czechoslovakia out of the Czech crises. The general theory is the Germans approved Poland's request to make themselves look better in taking the Sudetenland.

299 What did he say exactly? In 1938 Poland demanded and got a small piece of Czechoslovakia out of the Czech crises. The general theory is the Germans approved Poland's request to make themselves look better in taking the Sudetenland.

Poland then also took a small slice of Slovakia.

I cut Netanyahu slack for voicing support simply because Israel has always received a great deal of support from the US, and it's his job to maintain good relations with the American Govm't no matter who is running it. What did or did not happen in the last election is an American internal affair only. Now of course Biden is betraying Israel now, but that still doesn't mean there was any advantage to him in trying to antagonize Biden back then.

It's a literary trope where the author creates a powerful figure that has attributes similar to those found to Jesus in Christianity.

But that is the way Jesus is pronounced in Spanish. So Spanish Christians are saying the exact same syllables as they pray to.

It's not big deal because Jesus was really Yeshua (or Yeshue) which is the word we translate into Joshua in the OT. So, "Jesus" does not have as distinct name as we artificially construct.

Biden and his senior national security officials have pressed the Israeli government to end the war quickly and agree to a peace plan based on the two-state solution.

There are some things to not like about Trump. There are things to like. His first term was successful in many ways, but lacking in many ways. A main goal of most first term presidents is to get to a 2nd term. In that regard, he failed, but it does seem like it was a fraud.

In the end, the nomination was never really in doubt. Trump needs to be ready for the cheat. I hope he governs a bit more freely in 2nd term - as a 2nd termer can.

472 It's not big deal because Jesus was really Yeshua (or Yeshue) which is the word we translate into Joshua in the OT. So, "Jesus" does not have as distinct name as we artificially construct.

-

Which is part of what we're watching slowly slip away in Western Civilization. It's tied to the removal of the 10 Commandments, prayer in school, etc. Americans knew that name existed and that people were named that, but they still weren't comfortable using it casually. Heck, Hells Angels and other dregs of society generally had enough sense than to curse around little kids. Not because they were worried about the parents, but because they knew those were kids. Now you can go to school functions and hear moms and dads using f-word left and right to their 5th grader.

Returning to the 10 Commandments, even non-believers maintained a sense of "I don't think this is true but it gives crucial guardrails for how society should exist."

As whig says, it's a jenga game to our elites. That block was removed and they're giggling at the tower wobbling.

509 You haven't lived until Ace does a whole post where he claims you said all sorts of things that you've never even once IMPLIED and he makes you feel like you're an overall bad person because of it.

remember when your dad hit you, and then when you asked "why , daddy, I did not do anything?!" , he responded : "You were about to !!"

510 Wasn't that the Saffron the Space Whore episode?

I believe the AoS style guide requires the full title of Saffron Intergalactic Space Whore.

513 481 My father (age 92) suffers from dementia and watching Biden last night was like having an argument with my father about his condition.

Why do you watch that shit? I remember my father engrossed with an old 35mm camera twisting the knobs endlessly. What was interesting was watching the essence of the man be revealed as his acquired powers faded. I observed that my father was a very loyal, loving and kind man. He needed to be told that it was okay to let go. Once he heard that he passed over. Life is strange and beautiful.

515 I look at the shitshow that is the Biden Presidency and I hear commentators now say "this is the end of the administration" and it sounds plausible, but then again, these guys are so brazen, that terrible press conference says to me that no way is Joe going to quit.

And they can't take him out, he's a sympathetic elderly man with memory issues.

Eh, the Dims will just kill him if he gets too problematic.

The Democrats have had a lot, a lot of convenient deaths occur among inconvenient Democrats.

Pillow over face? Massive injection of covid? CIA heart attack or stroke poisons?

My personal favorite is that "they" sprinkle ricin all over some cute little 8 year old girl's hair and let Joe go all sniffy on her.*

It'd be the first successful assassination the CIA ever planned!*

*Yes, it's a stupid joke. Don't go all nuts on me here.
