An ancient and magical amber bear. Carved some 10,000 years ago, it washed up on a beach at Fanø in Denmark from a submerged Mesolithic settlement under the North Sea.

✨Merry Christmas everyone✨

Figurine of an amber bear carved some 10,000 years ago during the Mesolithic period. The bear is seen in profile facing right. The legs are incomplete. The ears, muzzle and mouth are depicted. The figurine is displayed on a small metal stand. The display lighting shining on the bear’s head and neck enhances the translucence of the orange coloured amber

Even at this late date there are many #leaves, some of them rather attractively coloured, on the #trees of #Toronto. This particular #tree is in Rosetta McClain #Gardens in the East End. #Fall #Autumn

tfw you’re fucking the lasagna man for lasagna
•*• Funny-Presence4228 LPT: How to win as a guest and make new friends at a raging, alcohol fuelled party Food & Drink I'm getting older now, and some of my friends' kids have recently started college. I've been reliably told that alcohol-fuelled parties are still happening, and I shared this advice about how to make new friends and be a hero. One of them took my advice, and now has a new girlfriend because of this. The key to the following advice is an element of secrecy because the surprise makes it even better. Arrive late and sneak Lasagna into the party. I mean, taking a large, catering-sized tray of lasagna, along with a stack of paper plates and forks, to a raging house party. I used to do this back in college. I'd make one, sometimes two, in the afternoon in big foil trays before goin to a party. Show up around 10.30pm, and slip them into the oven without asking permission telling anyone. Medium heat for 30 minutes to warm it up. Get my paper plates out, and shout: "Lasagna is ready" to a packed house of drunk people, and hand them all a fork. It's cheaper than bringing beer, no clean-up, and I got laid pretty often. Important note: Make sure the person who owns the oven is the first in the line, and don't make a mess. Maybe make one meat and one vegan or something... This last point was less of a concern back in my day, but we must move with the times.

Painting of six figures are standing in a semi-circle on a grassy field. Five of the figures have fox heads and fur but human-like bodies and attire (shorts or skirts and shoes). One figure in the centre-left is a bird with speckled plumage and human-like legs and shoes. The figures are in a field with a line of bare trees in the background under a heavily overcast, grey sky. A small, blue and white toy drum lies on the grass in the foreground.

🖼️ A Saint, from the 'Jackdaw of Rheims', Briton Rivière.
Painting inspired by a poem by Tennyson which tells the story of a jackdaw that steals a cardinal's ring. It shows a jackdaw perched on top of a stack of red books. The scene is set within a church or monastery, it has stone walls and the ornate stained-glass window.
