Elizabeth I revealed as the translator of Tacitus into English

Translating scholarly Latin into sophisticated English was an amazing level of scholarship for someone who was perhaps the most powerful person in the world. Inspired by this revelation, Trump plans to translate some of his own speeches into sophisticated English.

I may have oversold it with that headline. I reckon there is some transparency, some illusion. At any rate, she looks spectacular. You’d never guess she is 54 years old.

It seems you can see her as a series regular in about two weeks. She will be a baddie (Morgan Le Fay) in season three of Marvel’s Runaways (Hulu, December 13). Morgan is one of those roles that just cries out for over-the-top acting, ala Doc Holliday and Long John Silver. Hell, in the comic books she was briefly Doctor Doom’s girlfriend! It appears (see below) that La Liz is not afraid to camp it up as an evil immortal.

“Submit to me,” indeed!
