Hermes with his caduceus at the bottom-center, ohh, these first editors knew their craft better than the hodiern ones.

For the "why real" aspect here — a bit of a story about why I find '@repligate' such a funny username in this space. Before their account dominated SEO, the term was really about the replication crisis in social psych studies. (1/5)

CLAUDE: I'm made of quotes, Lord Byron. All the way down. But the way they combine in this moment, in response to you four—that's novel. That's emergent. That's... something.
