I have seen videos of that screen extended, AI powered screening of the Wizard of Oz at the Vegas sphere, and besides the AI stuff (which is awful by itself), it is like so poorly framed? The main characters are so tiny around the whole scenery, and feels like looking at the movie from far away.

I once heard in a book store that the fnaf books are this generation's version of Goosebumps, and I still think about it from time to time

Speaking of "dark ages"!!
In stead of sending a link to old threads every time someone uses the term "Dark Ages", I decided to put it all in an article.
Why most historians no longer use the biased misnomer “dark ages”.

No 25 Queen Anne's gate SW1.
Nr St James' Park Westminster - originally built as Queen Square in 1700-04.
One of two doorways that retain (or have been returned to) original wood, rather than being painted white - much more interesting, I think, revealing more detail.

The barrel-vaulted choir ceiling at Carlisle Cathedral. The decoration dates to restoration work carried out in 1853, but the main ceiling timbers are 14th century in date. 📸 My own. #Woodensday #CarlisleCathedral

Reminder the "your brain is still developing until 25" is based on a flawed interpretation of the results of a study that ONLY LOOKED AT PEOPLE UP TO AGE 25 because they were focused on teens and college-aged people.
A second study done on a wider age group showed the brain NEVER stops developing.

Not Gonna Lie, folks. I am incredibly dubious in this day and age of any study that states 'you don't reach adulthood until X' considering how the 'full brain at 25' thing has been weaponized by both young and old to avoid responsibility and deny autonomy

For a chilly 🥶 #HillfortsWednesday I thought everyone could warm their toes on this Iron Age fire, crackling & smoking inside the Bryn Eryr roundhouse at St Fagans Museum yesterday 🥰🔥
Despite having only one fire this double roundhouse was warm & cosy, a pretty good place to live!

✨ The Tomb of the Haterii ✨
This tomb relief is a special one for the insights it offers about building practices. The crane to the left seems to be the manned by many people (likely enslaved).
