    Fortius et melius magnas plerumque secat res.]

  14. A quotation from Abraham Lincoln

    My note to you I certainly did not expect to see in print; yet I have not been much shocked by the newspaper comments on it. Those comments constitute a fair specimen of what has occurred to me through life. I have endured a great deal of ridicule without much malice; and have received a great deal of kindness, not quite free from ridicule. I am used to it.

    Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) American lawyer, politician, US President (1861-65)
    Letter (1863-11-02) to James H. Hackett

  26. A quotation from Ambrose of Milan

       To avoid dissensions we should ever be on our guard, more especially with those who drive us to argue with them, with those who vex and irritate us, and who say things likely to excite us to anger. When we find ourselves in company with quarrelsome, eccentric individuals, people who openly and unblushingly say the most shocking things, difficult to put up with, we should take refuge in silence, and the wisest plan is not to reply to people whose behavior is so preposterous.
       Those who insult us and treat us contumeliously are anxious for a spiteful and sarcastic reply: the silence we then affect disheartens them, and they cannot avoid showing their vexation; they do all they can to provoke us and to elicit a reply, but the best way to baffle them is to say nothing, refuse to argue with them, and to leave them to chew the cud of their hasty anger. This method of bringing down their pride disarms them, and shows them plainly that we slight and despise them.
     
       [Sed etiam ille cavendus; est, qui videri potest, quicumque inritat, quicumque incitat, quicumque exasperat, quicumque incentiva luxuriae aut libidinis suggerit. Quando ergo aliquis nobis convitiatur, lacessit, ad violentiam provocat, ad iurgium vocat: tunc silentium exerceamus, tunc muti fieri non erubescamus. Peccator est enim qui nos provocat, qui iniuriam facit et nos similes sui fieri desiderat.
       Denique si taceas, si dissimules, solet dicere: Quid taces? Loquere, si audes; sed non audes, mutus es, elinguem te feci. Si ergo taceas, plus rumpitur; victum sese putat, inrisum, posthabitum atque inlusum.]

    Ambrose of Milan (339-397) Roman theologian, statesman, Christian prelate, saint, Doctor of the Church [Aurelius Ambrosius]
    De Officiis Ministrorum [On the Duties of the Clergy], Book 1, ch. 5, sec. 17-18 (AD 386)

  30. A quotation from Horace

    But he that touches me, (hands off! I cry, —
    Avaunt, and at your peril come not nigh!)
    Shall for his pains be chaunted up and down,
    The jest and byeword of a chuckling Town.
     
                                            [At ille,
    Qui me conmorit (melius non tangere, clamo),
    Fiebit et insignis tota cantabitur urbe.]

    Satires [Saturae, Sermones], Book 2, # 1, “Sunt quibus in Satira,” l. 44ff (2.2.44-46) (30 BC) [tr. Howes (1845)]

  34. Retired U.S. Army Gen. Mark #Milley said former President #Trump is "a #fascist to the core," according to journalist Bob Woodward's forthcoming book, "War," multiple outlets reported on Friday.

    Why it matters: Milley's existing #scorn for the GOP presidential nominee has escalated. "He is now the most dangerous person to this country," he told #Woodward.
    "I had suspicions when I talked to you about his mental decline.”

  36. @mrpablington @Azurakumo

    Well it's spoopy season sooo

    #LittleNightmares2 after finishing the first one a couple days ago, went right into 2.

    Thinking #Dredge is next? Certainly fits the theme and I have been meaning to get to it.

    #DeadSynchronicity on the #SteamDeck which has been interesting.

    Wanna get into #Scorn on the #SeriesX sometime this weekend as well, but we'll see.

    I need to test the #SwitchOLED I just repaired so I'll prob hit up Game Stop for whatever I can find that's cheap while still being something I can stand to play for a couple hours. Tho I'm waiting on Joycons/Dock I got a couple days ago still, so that will likely be after the weekend.

  38. Tucker Carlson lost. The Jan. 6 committee won.

    On Monday, Tucker Carlson used his popular primetime program in an effort to undermine the work of last year’s House Select Committee on the Jan. 6 Attack by presenting footage that, he claimed, would cast its conclusions into serious doubt.

    It was a flop.

    House Speaker Kevin #McCarthy gave #Carlson more than 40,000 hours of footage from that day, and the Fox News host used it to make the case that the vast majority of rioters were, in fact, peaceful “#sightseers” smeared through guilt by association with a few #bad #apples.

    But to all but the most committed (or deluded) MAGA devotees, Carlson’s effort failed.

    A growing number of Republican lawmakers — including Senate Minority Leader Mitch #McConnell, Sens. Mitt #Romney, Thom #Tillis, Mike #Rounds, Kevin #Cramer, Lindsey #Graham, Chuck #Grassley, and Joni #Ernst — have #condemned the push to rewrite history.

    The episode quickly became a subject of widespread #mockery and #scorn, apparently failing to gain even an iota of traction among the Trump-skeptical conservatives it was designed to entice.
