Just heard back from a job I applied to, letting me know that the job "does not come with a traditional salary," instead, I need to "create a team of partners who are willing to support me financially as the source of funding" 🤯 What kind of new dystopian BS is this now?? 😭

No, it's an actual (religious) non-profit organization. I think they want you to solicit your local church members or something, to donate to the cause, so they can pay for your salary 😒

But the truth is, in a capitalist society, the study of history doesn't matter. Politicians are not interested in our knowledge and corporations can't use us to sell a product.We are "noble, but economically redundant." So, we're never going to get a say at the table that matters

The court confirms that the 32 ancient manuscripts the Museum of the Bible bought from Oxford professor Dirk Obbink were indeed stolen from the British Egyptian Exploration Society, and were not his to sell. They have been awarded $7 million, the price they paid for the items
Judgment entered in favor of Plaintiff (Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc). against Defendant (Dirk D. Obbink).

Graduating with your PhD is so weird. Like, you don't get a congrats email or confirmation email from anyone. You think you graduated cause you applied for it, but how can you tell? There's no email from the system, or your department, or your advisor.. so I think I'm done?

The way new items are unlocked is by receiving loans from other museums, the home museum where these items rightly belong. For example, more Egyptian items are unlocked by satisfying the conditions of the curator from an Ancient Egyptian museum in Cairo
