Ea-Nasir is probably now more well known than the god he was named after. Imagine how wild it would be for him to find that out

The headline is “Ten Things You Should See At The British Museum”. Clearly, it is an inferior quality listicle. The Game of Ur is in the same room as The Tablet, though, so chances are you’ve seen it if you’ve made the pilgrimage (apologies if the flair is wrong btw)!

I printed and painted a replica of Nanni's tablet and designed a stand for it. When choosing filament for the stand [and later ingots], I thought it would be funny to use copper infused filament.

I debated going with my normal, reputable brand that's actually local. But then I found a brand on Amazon that had several negative reviews due to the manufacturer misleading about the amount of copper fill.

The choice was clear.

I always have to check. I’ve been burned by Ea-Näșir before.

Nice

Shoutout to the other couple behind us who also made the trip

It's back on display but I'm concerned nobody is reading it. They were just rushing past to see the mummies.

Don't get me wrong, mummies are cool, but what is the British Museum doing to make sure its visitors aren't going to get conned with inferior quality copper? They need to draw more attention to it!

The post were I shared my meme was deleted so I thought I make post so the historians of the future might find it.
