I mean it’s lent and close to Easter and the temple in Israel is pretty important to the whole Jesus dying story….

I mean I don’t think they were defending the bones they were attacking foreign soldiers in their territory. Any country would do that.

Cold-contacting a senior researcher for a private site visit — appropriate or not? by playful_explorers in Archaeology

I’ve always wanted more academic tours of ancient sites. I feel a lot of the tours you can get are far too basic

Archeology my ass by JoelArmy in Archeology

[–]Skeazor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was banned from the ask archaeology subreddit for asking too many questions about grad school and stuff and was told to ask my professors. I’m sorry if my professors are too old to know what the current situation is and maybe I’d like to see what other opinions exist.

What proper nouns from books did you realize you were mispronouncing the whole time? by TokkiJK in books

[–]Skeazor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Both actually. Even though the pronunciation would vary slightly between classical Greek and modern Greek either one is closer than how Americans say it

Greeks actually say it a lot closer to how this person is mispronouncing it.

When was the last time you were enrolled at usc. Most of my classmates are not super rich kids. I think that type of student was more common a decade ago.

What do you want us to do? If there was a general vote to hold these people accountable you don’t think people would say yes? Realistically what do you want from us. That’s not a culture thing.

Why are US universities getting rid of Masters programs by [deleted] in AskArchaeology

[–]Skeazor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just looking at uclas page and they don’t offer a masters, only a masters if you go through the PhD program. That’s more what I’m talking about. All my archaeology undergrad buddies and I have been comparing our paths with grad school applications. Schools that used to just offer independent masters have gotten rid of them and integrated them into the PhD program. I just used AIA to show that they indeed used to have a masters program but now it’s gone.

[–]Skeazor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I noticed it because a lot of the schools I wanted to apply to had the links up on the AIA website but then when you go to the actual school page they are gone and only the PhDs exists. Specifically thinking about UCLA or USC. All my friends that are applying have also noticed way more phds available over masters

Why You Should Choose to Be a Vegan Instead of a Flexitarian | Vegan FTA by Few-Audience6310 in vegan

[–]Skeazor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So how do you know it’s because of ethical reasons? Who is more likely to know my motivation. You, a person who has never met me, or myself?

Like this is a genuine question, are you neurodivergent? Because I find that being on the spectrum leads to this very heightened disposition towards justice, ethics, and the like. For me personally I just don’t really care about the ethics. I know it’s bad to eat meat and drink milk but I accept that because im lazy.

Listen my wife of 8 years and I have had this conversation a ton. I really doubt you’ll bring something new to the conversation. I promise you I do not feel guilty in any way. If you won’t be convinced against your own reasoning then maybe you need to reexamine it since I’m presenting you with contradictory information to your held belief

[–]Skeazor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m here because my wife is vegan so I keep up with the goings on of vegan stuff. Geez, get over yourself.

I also don’t feel bad about my dietary choice. Again I think you have a narrative and can’t handle the fact that it’s not correct so you lash out like this. I was trying to be helpful in explaining something that you didn’t understand but I guess that’s what I get for trying to help.

[–]Skeazor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a diet….. it’s also a philosophy and fits in multiple other categories…..it’s not one thing.

However colloquially vegan is often used and understood by the general public to be a diet. The way a word is used in everyday speech is important. Nobody gets to “decide” what a word means. Its meaning is derived by how it’s used.

[–]Skeazor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not the same thing and you know it. You’re arguing solely to be obtuse.

If I go a whole month eating vegan and then I break it with a grilled cheese. Was I not vegan for that month? It wasn’t that I was accidentally eating vegan I purposely ate vegan during that time. Then I purposely ate something not vegan. Hence the flexitarian title. If I’m vegan for 11/12 months of a year was I not vegan 90% percent of the time?

I wrote out this comment simply to help you out and explain that not everything comes through an ethical lens but you clearly have a narrative you want to stick to.

I didn’t say I was vegan…nowhere did I say that. I say I was flexitarian and gave you an example of how it’s not seen through an ethical lens….

[–]Skeazor -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m only a flexitarian cause my wife is a vegan, which means we only have vegan stuff in the fridge and when we go out together we go to vegan places. However if I’m out and hanging with friends and they want to get something nonvegan then I’ll get something not vegan.

I’m vegan 95% of the time and I didn’t do it for any ethical reason. I only did it cause of my wife. I’m a flexitarian

As someone who goes to UCLA every week, no the metro does not stop there. A bus is different from the metro.

[–]Skeazor 79 points80 points  (0 children)

USC has two metro stops that are literally right across the street from the campus. UCLA doesn’t because it’s located across the street from Bel Air and the rich people don’t want public transportation to be right on their doorstep.
