Spartan hoplites marched into battle to the aulos, with as many as one flutist per 30 men (so hundreds). Roughly the same density as fife and drum players two thousand years later.

A sound no one heard for 1,000 years.

The aulos is an ancient Greek double reed pipe that went extinct with no recordings and Lukas De Clerck rebuilt it from scratch.

That strap is a phorbeia and it supports your cheeks so you can circular breathe for hours.

This was ancient Greece's rave music 🔥

The American effort to supply China by air over the Himalayas was incredibly heroic. Planes were flown to the edge of their abilities, and so a pilot’s chances of being killed were 1 in 3 (over an expected 100-mission tour).

Today, the Chinese and U.S. militaries held a solemn ceremony in Chengdu to mark the handover of the remains of American airmen, who fought alongside the Chinese people against Japanese aggression during WWII.

We will never forget these heroic American friends who stood shoulder to shoulder with us for peace and justice. May their legacy live on, and may peace prevail.

The NewJeans drama started in April, 2024, and I predicted there would be no winners. The best thing HYBE could do is release the idols from all contracts, drop all cases, etc. Strictly out of self interest. But what do I know?
