What shady marketing tactic backfired? Shady marketing refers to unethical marketing practices used to promote products or services, often involving misleading information, false advertising claims, or manipulative tactics. These shady advertising techniques may include spam marketing, bait-and-switch tactics, hidden fees, and deceptive advertising aimed at exploiting consumer trust instead of delivering genuine value. Such questionable marketing strategies undermine consumer confidence and can result in significant brand reputation damage.

"In some such families, brothers practiced what is known as temporary marriages, where several brothers would marry a single wife, who would bear heirs to all of them in turn. While the Roman ideology of the univira, a woman's devotion to one husband, seems at odds with the practice of temporary marriage, the way Crassus stepped into his brother's marriage suggests that his family may have opted to allow only two sons to marry in order to secure the family's future. When his brother died, Crassus took the opportunity to move from uncle to husband, a move that may have served his own interests as well as fraternal pietas."

[The brothers of Romulus: fraternal Pietas in Roman law, literature, and society by Bannon, Cynthia Jordan]

@p-clodius-pulcher showed me this crazy quote, wherein "his family may have opted to allow only two sons to marry" made me go "so you are saying in a later era, Crassus would be a priest".

OHHHH THIS IS DELICIOUS. every discussion revolving around Crassus' marriage to his sister-in-law is so so fun. we have archaic traditions & obligations, there's the matter of keeping the dowry in the family (which in turn lends to a fun exploration of the economy at the time, wrt to crassus' father's policy making), & combined together, there's something to be said for the reasoning that the brother-sister marriage records of roman egypt may have had more to do with keeping property in the family.

but now with fraternal pietas? HELLO!! new things to think about. I'm going to unpack this with a magnifying glass.

Funny mental image: Sarek’s first time experiencing a snowy Earth winter and wondering why in the galaxy he left Vulcan for this 😂

Imagining “This day’s inclement weather will impede our planned excursion, my wife” emanating from deep within about 10 layers of thermal clothing masquerading as the Vulcan Ambassador to Earth while Amanda has maybe got a coat and scarf on and is cackling in delight.

Yup, we're back at it with another Glorbie Twitter post inspired by another famous post that got so much attention;

This time, we've got Gloria being a teen activist and Barbie lusting over it, along with our usual Duolingo slander, Sasha just being embarassed by the horniness of her moms, the Mattel CEO tweeting despite his aversion to it after being attacked by She-Ra fans, and even a random celebrity cameo out of nowhere.

As always, the ALT text is here for fun and whimsy (and of course, accessiblity)! Enjoy!

Bonus points if she gets her married name. Spoiler alert, not Adler.

Hello, Sherlock Holmes adaptation writer. I have trapped you in this room. It is fully furnished and comfortable. On the table, you will notice a copy of A Scandal in Bohemia by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, of which redistribution is perfectly legal, as the work is in the public domain. You will notice it is rather thin. You have 24 hours to read the approximately 8,550 words in this story. To exit this room, all you must do is summarize the plot of the story without referring to Irene Adler as a seductress or implying she is attracted to Sherlock Holmes. Good luck.
