Disagree: Everybody hates your AI images and thinks you smell like poo
Nobody likes your AI images!
Very happy to receive my copy of @matthijsdendulk.bsky.social Ethnic Stereotypes and the Letters of Paul this morning! Hartelijk dank!
Ethnic Stereotypes and the Letters of Paul is now available in hardback + paperback and I happen to have some spare copies. ***Repost if you’re interested and by March 31 I’ll randomly select a few people who will get a free copy in the mail.*** Book info here: www.cambridge.org/core/books/e...
I remember when there was a discussion on Twitter about Shein's manufacturing practices and some apologists invented all sorts of fantastical machinery and technology to avoid facing the more horrifying truth. Reminds me of this comedian's joke. IG bscomedian
interested!
God, Slavery, and Early Christianity is out in the real world with @universitypress.cambridge.org! I have some extra, so retweet this by the end of Oct. 19 if you’re interested in receiving a copy! Book info here: www.cambridge.org/core/books/g...
So, I think the (professional) copy editor has introduced a number of grammatical errors into my manuscript - presumably caused by not understanding the sentence, and possible prompted by an AI grammar checker. 1/
proofs day! (first article on Luke, hopefully not the last - although unlike @dorhamidbar.bsky.social I don't already have a prequel lined up)
is it me or has LOEB online gone up in price dramatically? I am no longer allowed to buy it in USD, but have to buy in pounds or Euro.
AI is not powerful enough to dominate. Right now a lot of its biggest investors are panicking because it doesn't work as promised. So they're trying to offload their debt onto consumers by making AI seem inevitable. It's a Ponzi scheme, and once they get their money back the marketing will stop.
book recommendations wanted please: what are the key important eco-theology / creation care books / resources that a theological library should have in stock?
great thread. obrigado!
What truly new things have we learned about how the prophetic books of the Bible came to be? An interview I just did with @haydentank.bsky.social made me reflect on how I was completely wrong on a key point and what a great recent book tells us about the values behind ancient Hebrew literature. 🧵

I never really researched Nuremberg, so I was unaware until today that the famous “Nuremberg Defense” (“we were just following orders”) was not, in fact, the only defense offered by Nazi criminals at Nuremberg. (1/5)
need to sample this for a bass synth! also, yay for kākāpō!
A milestone: #kakapo mating calls have been heard on the North Island of NZ for the first time in over a century. At least 2 of the 3 #kakapo males at the fenced sanctuary of Maungatautari have "boomed" this summer. #conservation www.doc.govt.nz/news/media-r... Video: www.scienceagency.co.nz
Far out. 400 Euro for a monograph (even as Ebook) - new level of lunacy reached or is this tariffs?
Book Review ouch: "There is a basic historiographical nettle here which Strelan refuses to grasp, or grasps so weakly that he comes away badly stung." 1/3
yep. i don't care how many crimes a person has committed this kind of punishment is a crime against humanity. there should be heavy sanctions from right thinking nations against the USA and El Salvador over this.
Duncan writes that Christians need to recognize that what the Trump administration is doing to these men is not only unjust, it is evil.
My latest uninvited intervention in Pauline Scholarship. 😜 (link in next skeet)
Frank Cole Babbitt in 1936 forgot that when translating Plutarch's Greek into English, the English should be easier to read than the Greek!
genius. this needs an update to include the use of AI. possibly on the topic of Vegetative Electron Microscopy. Happy Birthday Tom.
At number seven, Lobachevsky a song about academic plagiarism. And, naturally, Lehrer manages to take a dull topic and turn it into an absolute banger of a tune. /9 www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQHa...
The Revelation Reception Network has a website!

no, you cannot rely on public domain translations from yesteryear where the translator was more concerned with his rhyming scheme than the meaning of the Greek. Monograph citing Athenaeus's Ἄρτεμιν, ἃ γυναικῶν μέγ᾿ ἔχει κράτος but relying on Yonge's 1854 translation. 🤦♂️

article i'm reading is full of bizarre typographical errors, but i'm quite taken with the idea that Paul taught Eor daily for two years, that could explain his later depressive state in the Poo books.
ok, i hadn't thought about it like that. hmmm.
1/x I fear some have interpreted this as suggesting that Eisgruber (Princeton’s president) wasn’t being that courageous. That wasn’t at all my intention: I have a very high opinion of him, and the act deserves great praise. What I did mean is a little complicated, though…
