HTME Episode 9000: Andy builds a tokamak nuclear reactor with the aid of discord math using his unique language and symbols

[@mikedrop4421]

Today on HTME were going to harvest some deuterium from my homemade breeder reactor and then run that through our fusion reactor to produce the energy. Then go to my closet cyclotron and collect some of my left over dark matter from last years crop and combine everything to make a primitive wormhole. Hopefully we can use that to go back in time and find out how to build a pyramid.

The clay tablet from one king to another wasn't unsent and it wasnt found in a kiln. Clay tablets were dried, not fired so they could be recycled. The tablet was sent but it supposedly went unread and was put into storage until the king could read it. Before that happened the sea people attacked and burned the palace to the ground, the heat causing the tablet to be fired, preserving it.

Classical historian here. I hope this doesn't come across as 'well, actually..' I agree with most of what you said about Homer, and I know the point of the video is the cool sword (which is awesome!) And this was just the contextual pre-amble. But I think it would be more accurate to say that Homer was depicting his contemporary world, roughly c.9-8 BC and layering it onto pseudo-mythological events that took place nearly 400 years prior to his life, if he ever existed. I only say this because a lot of the material culture described in both of Homer's works is pretty accurate to the 8th century BC, with some elements from the 12th-11th c. BC.
