@iain_bancarz@genomic.social @ElleGray@mstdn.social Like someone said, in a memorable display of black humour: in the long run, we are all dead. Human nature hasn't changed in 30 years. Or in ~2,500–hence Euripides' theatre plays remain as poignant and relevant today as they were when premiered in the theatre of Dionysus in Athens. Calvin and Hobbes have that atemporal nature, yet the cartoons are deeply framed within the decadent suburban lifestyle of the 80's and 90's in the USA, just like Euripides are framed in Classical Greece. #CalvinAndHobbes #Euripides #LongTermThinking
