I realise I have been remiss and have not posted the various items I have made in pottery class this semester. I decided to try again after a break of about five years.

I’ll probably pin this post so it’s easier to update it.

Disclaimer, I am not good at this by any means, but it’s fun.

Another catnip thread for the neurospicy. Ranging from sewing to archeology and then some.
Things used in everyday life are the real archaeological treasures! These sewing #needles were made from animal bone some 15,000 years ago. Some designs simply don't need to be improved, because form and functions were perfectly matched from the start. Form follows function! 🧵1/2

All that actually exists are choices about how govt might fund its spending - some of which options those same pols are refusing to consider, at cost to us all"

Hard-hitting truth-telling from UCL Prof Anthony Costello….

“The Covid Public Inquiry is a devastating critique of medical advisers, civil servants and politicians who led the UK to the worst public health disaster in a century. More than 230,000 deaths.”

Tomorrow is the 1st day of Advent, and social media feeds will be lightened and brightened by beautiful Advent Calendar posts. Few are as magical and enchanting as those created by Nature Artist @clothofnature.bsky.social Jane E. Hall

Worth a look and a follow. And a share, if you would! 🌿
There’s something enchanting about fungi — rising quietly from hidden realms with old magic in their names. Yesterday’s candle-snuff find reminded me of the tiny tapers in my wild fairytale… a whisper to welcome more wonder into December. #WildWonder #Fairytale

This book has been so soothing. I have probably learned more about the foreign policies that shape the world just in the first three chapters than I have in at least the last 15 years of news media. 🙃 It's helped clarify a lot of the absolutely batshit nonsense of the current timeline. COMFORT READ

Boycotts are all well and good, but have we tried singing an entire musical number about how much an oligarch sucks the second we see them in public?

Seriously, I think the Muppets were on to something there.

1) These are officially the coolest mice ever. I hope they gave them little "mom" tattoos in the American traditional style.
2) This study was in mice, so take it all with a grain of salt.
3) UM. Different tattoo ink colors had different responses?! Go to page 8, the data shown there is wild.
