A little cave lion carved from mammoth ivory some 40,000 years ago! 🦁 Imagine the #IceAge artist at work, sitting by the warmth of a fire, creating what is one of the world’s oldest known works of figurative art. Excavated 1930s, from the Vogelherd Cave, Germany. 📷 me #FindsFriday #Archaeology

“As much as Meta would love to have everyone wearing smart glasses all day, as evidenced by its new line of prescription-focused Ray-Bans, the Blayzer and the Scriber, it is still not culturally accepted to wear a camera on your face—and it may never be.”

. Another from my walk along the Missouri River. Finally Friday! Hope y'all made it in one piece! #EastCoastKin #photography #monochrome #Montana #blackandwhitephotography #Scape

Asplenium scolopendrium, Hart's Tongue Fern, in the garden today for #FernFriday #FoliageFriday 🌱 This particular plant is believed to be 140+ years old. It was given to our family around 40 years ago by an elderly couple who had kept it in their family for over a century. A special & lovely plant!

Amazing day at the Painted Hills / John Day Fossil Bed National Monument with @sallyfisherprice.bsky.social. Almost no one there and mindblowingly surreal and otherworldly. 1/2

The man who co-wrote "You Sexy Thing," "Emma," "Brother Louie," and "Love Is Life" is gone. Tony Wilson, Hot Chocolate co-founder, died April 24 in Trinidad at 89. His son said it best: "He left a lot of music behind… forever and ever." zurl.co/Khltm

From a course I took decades ago - when you are anxious, stressed, or upset about something that happened or is happening you ask: "In the movie of my life; how much time does this scene deserve?" So if you take an 85-year life & boil it down to 2 hours; you can gain perspective.

When I was a teenager, I was venting about something to my grandma, who was extremely understanding She told me she understood how I felt, but “always remember to be careful when you feel like that because it’s easy to say something that you can apologize for, but you can never really take back”

This is a FRAUDULENT paper, AI-generated. My name was used as an author and I had nothing to do with it, never saw it until today e-pubmed.co.uk/journals/dig... The "Editors" Angelo Rossi Mori, David Mensah, and Zarnie Khadjesari and this "Journal" should be reported.

The unquestioned common understanding that the nazis were the bad guys.

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

Worrye not about 'being productive,' for thou art not a product. Thou art a star daunsinge yn a hopeful skye. A signal blinking across centuryes and worldes. Thou art a song performid just once and perfectlye.

Every example used to push the "men are lonely" narrative makes me think "no, men are not lonely enough."

Belief in & support for vaccines is normal. “But that reality is not immune to the stories we tell about it… [Bad polls] change what clinicians say in the exam room, the decisions policymakers & leaders make, and ultimately become a self-fulfilling prophecy.” Methods matter for talking points
