I have met this couple. My friend studied with him in grad school. They are more sinister and unhinged then you can possibly imagine. Neither of
them wear or own any item that’s not pre 1940 and the legal case in his previous divorce is really worth a read.
these two married Egyptology professors who appear like this on the dust jacket of their co-authored book are not whodunit characters but flesh and blood humans existing in the year 2024

He is a professor at Yale. There are
very few Egyptologist professors in the USA because let’s be real it’s pretty wonky and outdated academic field. So he is the whole department there. She was his undergrad, then masters then phd student, then wife lol
@mcrumps
he got her hired at Yale after she got her phd. But during his divorce proceedings with estranged wife (also an Egyptologist now teaches at uchicago) all the detials of his affair with his became public he got suspended and she got fired.
I don’t have strong feelings about this. She clearly had run in with a woman who works at a gallery but doesn’t know the word gallerina but it’s not shocking it wouldn’t land well with women on Twitter, the epicenter of mousey brunettes and writers who believe in asthetics.
My boyfriend and I are looking for a 3rd, but not for sex. We want a freakish Igor like cretin that will do our bidding while creating weird atmosphere.
I was trying to take a hot picture next to a diccomissioned nuclear missle but my father wouldn’t stop muttering about the horrors of war and the darkness of man’s capacity for violence and cruelty and it really threw off my vibe.
One thing about me is when im in love with out mutually assured addoration or even have a strong crush im like a totally different person who is capible of mass atrocities and baffling feats of mental and social psychosis
Lmao Neuschwanstien was built in the 19th century. By Ludvig II, he was known for being crazy and building modern faux “tacky” version of medival castles. This is like the Cheesecake Factory of castles it’s about as modern as it gets.
This did me no favors. I read it when I was like 8. then had no friends because when girls were talking about celebrity crushes I would say mine was the teenage author. I was like that’s pretty close to Orlando Bloom. Not great.
I have started putting highlighter on the tip of my nose because of that one tweet where the guy was like girls put highlighter on the tips of there noses.
this image is so funny to me
the bruised knees, the tattoos, stuffed into the vestments of a respectable woman
we’re gonna see so much of this the next few decades, stay frosty gents

I think it fragments a geographical and temporal moment splintering it away from the histories that tie into it and pushes an episodic framework for thinking about history that is ahistorical and that I feel like we have moved past
traveling to Europe cheaply is easy. 1. spend 3-5 years developing a distinctive artistic body of work that accidentally appeals to the European sense of historical content collapse and playful fatalism.
