Nice new site: ruism.org. A bilingual edition of the Four Books, Chinese with James Legge’s English translation, and Zhu Xi’s commentary in Chinese toggles open under each verse. Plus the Five Classics, terms, bios, etc. Also has a Spanish and Catalan interface!

I hate teaching at @Columbia. You finally sneak an achievement into the faculty news roundup and the guy next to you in the alphabet wins the Nobel.

Song of the Yue Boatman, the only Yue-language song preserved to this day. Chinese historical records have preserved its pronunciation and translation. This is the Chinese version. 6th century BC.

this bone is extemely amusing because when it mentions the king's chariot was overturned, they write the glyph for 'chariot' upside down (original post by @gyankotsu below)
【#Yinxu Calendar】#September 30 This oracle bone preserves China's earliest known "chariot accident scene"? During the reign of King Wu Ding, Ziyang suffered a carriage crash while joining the royal hunt. The oracle bone records this traffic #accident from over 3,000 years ago.

Rarely would I think my ancestors could be confused, they mostly rejoice or shed tears. But this would confound them.
