Because we have a flag because everyone benefits from the effort to learn about and educate about ancient cultures. We presume that even those cultures benefit, because the memory of them is preserved instead of being forgotten.

Digging up artefacts for private collections, though - that’s just grave robbery with a shine on it.

I’ve been confused about it in the past, but I eventually settled on mould if it grows and mold if it’s taking shape. I’m willing to let the rest of the internet be wrong about it, though.

Pretty great. I have money and free time.

Since you’ve already decided how my part of the discussion is going to go, you may as well go ahead and hold it without me.

Turnabout is fair play, surely?

I unload pallets of computer gear. That’s not the main part of my job, but it’s something that happens from time to time.

You put a surprising amount of work into giving us a cheap laugh. Well done.

Darick Robertson’s art is always great.

For anyone who doesn’t know, this is one of those internet rabbit holes from which not even light can escape.
