Pons_Aelius, to memes in If the internet has taught me anything it's that no one is an expert in anything

yep. The bigger the sub, the worse it was.

You would get some niche subs were there was some decent discussion but once one passed about 100K subscribers there would be a noticeable downward spiral.

Pons_Aelius, to upliftingnews in A 9-year-old wanted to honor her dog that died. So she organized a pet drive for shelters.

It is possible for an event to be both sad and uplifting. A child is channelling their grief to help others.

The pet died, that is undoubtedly sad but it is also a fact of life.

The way the child is reacting to it is uplifting.

Pons_Aelius, to archaeology in Archaeologists unearth ‘most shocking example of Roman slavery’ at Pompeii

As the article states. Slavery is an aspect of Roman society that is so often hand waved away or basically ignored by pretty much every historical discussion or documentary.

When you hear about Julius Caesar in Gaul: one third of the entire population was sold into slavery over the course of a few years.

The entire roman economy ran on slavery.

Spartacus is a staple of modern media thanks to Giovagnoli's novel and its translation into English but the brutality with which it and the other two "Slave wars" were put down in the space of 60 years are rarely touched on.
