The Roommate just sent me this pic of Belle. She is on the platform by my desk, and sad because I am not there.

A little bear figurine carved out of amber some 6,000 years ago 🐻❤️

A hole runs through the bear’s torso suggesting it was threaded on a cord, perhaps worn or carried as a protective charm.

Found in a peat bog near Słupsk, Poland, in 1887.

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”

Fun fact: during my "want to be a condutor" phase, I also wanted to design a women's tuxedo, based on this style of dress. Traditional tuxedo jacket, over a skirt, probably pencil or a-line. Can put the stripe on the skirt.
Two-piece suit, USA, 1892

Absolutely incredible style here. The cut of the jacket is just sublime, and the embroidery (?) is a simple design, but massively elevates the overall look of the outfit. Just a perfect suit, I love it so much!

Ah yes, pants that scream "subdued colors my arse!" Modern men need to learn to dress with color.

If all my fav independent journalists started a publication, I’d subscribe. Ad watch ads too.
whoever figures out a way to bundle independent journalism subscriptions will be a hero
i know that this is an unpopular take, but everyone starting their own newsletter as a revenue stream is not a sustainable model for writing and reporting or for people who love and want to pay for media.
