Lovely little Romano-British brooch in the form of a hare 😍 The artisan who made this brooch some 1,900 years ago, gave the hare a cheerful little face! Copper alloy decorated with enamel. 📷 British Museum www.britishmuseum.org/collection/o... #Archaeology

Astoundingly, this colourful clay vase was made between 7,300 and 6,800 years ago! 🤯 A masterpiece of Late Neolithic ceramic art, the decorative elements may well represent woven textile patterns. From Dimini, Thessaly, Greece. National Archaeological Museum, Athens. 📷 by me #Archaeology

If the folks setting up the new government in Syria want some ideas, I've looked into the situation for the last half hour or so and I think I could help. DMs are open.

As we approach the holiday season, I have once again hung this up in the gym, to encourage the children to think about their behaviour and life choices.

today we discovered that the revenant is straight married and it is now my mission in life for my nun to be a homewrecker

One of the suburbs here is called Little Canada and I like to imagine multigenerational families of Canadians living in rickety apartments in Canadatown with a moose infestation, serving poutine and beavertails out of hole-in-the-wall diners while wearing Canada Goose and saying "eh" a lot

Fishing some 5,300 years ago: a Neolithic fishhook made of wild boar tusk, wrapped with a fishing line. The size of the fishhook is 6.5 cm. It was used to catch pikes. Found in the lake-dwelling settlement of Arbon Bleiche 3, Switzerland. On display at Archäologisches Museum Frauenfeld 📷me 🏺

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

This was at my dog park and it broke me. In a crowded field of contenders this may be the most cursed cybertruck I’ve ever seen. Maybe the most cursed image full stop. Incontrovertible proof that god is either impotent, indifferent, or illusory.

Since they have divers, I have a tip for the NYPD- The only billionaire killer any of us REALLY know the location of is somewhere down by the Titanic.

Teacher: Now let's learn regular expressions. Regular expressions are a limited form of computation that can match many kinds of strings, but not parse recursively or execute arbitrary programs. Student: And ^.?$|^(..+?)\1+$ determines if a number is prime. Teacher: wtf

If anyone needs me I’ll be in the abyss.

“Hey I noticed you were a weird girl, and when that waiter asked if you wanted a refill you almost threw up, wanna join my polycule?”

Journalist Denethor: you don't understand I NEED to keep talking to Sauron through that seeing stone he lets me have up here so I can let him keep poisoning my once formidable mind with delusions and despair

it’s actually really fucked up the way everyone is talking about the nypd doing a bad job looking for the shooter. would love to see you try looking for clues when 95% of your mental capacity must remain focused on protecting yourself from fentanyl. and it’s like. not even fun or exciting or cool

Hot take: I don't think you could forcefem riker because he would instantly agree and get really into it You wouldn't even get to finish your sentence before he takes the needle out of your hand and jabs himself in the thigh.

A funny story about bloodhounds before I go. Augustus went through the search and rescue program with my stepfather. Did great until the final certification when, instead of finding the guy hiding in the woods to pass, he tracked a bag of McDonald's fries. For two miles.

I believe the Earth is actually a custard filled globe, hardened by fire and caramel along the upper crust. Yes, I have founded the Flan Earth Society. I even wrote some stories about it. It's decent flan fiction.

"You've heard of Elf on the Shelf"—actually, no, I never 'heard' of it at all, it's just some marketing trash that suddenly appeared everywhere in 2005 pretending to be a tradition. I hate it and everything like it. Shove the Elf up your ass. Fuck you.

Leaving a bag of monopoly money near your murder scene and watching the cops fail to find it for three whole days while following an unrelated bike is what being a D&D DM is like

I am having trouble keeping up with world events. Every day it seems like new crazy stuff 👀 Though I have to say... all this frantic reading to try to understand the internal politics of one more country that I never paid enough attention to has taught me a lot.

I love Mad Magazine

I’m not a Syrian refugee anymore. I’m Syrian. Just Syrian.

I still stand by this.

very clear that the bsky team is just trying to "wait the trannies out" and allow the pedo-apologist transphobe to brigade the site with his awful contemporaries and his dogshit follower base. we're not gonna shut up, aaron; you'll need to find some new bullshit principle to justify this bullshit

How it feels to interact with sfw accounts as a nsfw account

I do just kinda need a werewolf lady to pounce on me and dig her claws into my sides and her teeth into my neck

Need to be hunted by vampire girls

ever since i was a little girl, i knew i wanted to be a vampire's thrall and blood source before finally being turned myself,
