I learned of Thompson through her work in the Faiyum Depression in Egypt (1924–28). She & geologist Elinor Wight Gardner conducted the first systematic survey of the depression & discovered Egypt’s earliest known Neolithic farming culture, dating back to approximately 4000–5000 BCE. #archaeology 2/2

This tree in London looks full of leaves but is actually covered in parakeets.

I called him Bambino when I found him on the side of the road because he was so small. After fighting injury and growing up you should see him now ❤️

We Deserve Better Than This….

Baking set to opera. Found this weirdly satisfying.

We didn't see many parrots while at Gluepot. I mean, they were there. We'd occasionally see a group perform a fly-by but, with ephemeral pools after the rain in March, they didn't need to come in to drink at the water points. I got a few frames of this mulga parrot near the Whistler bird hide.

NASA just dropped the closest image ever taken of Jupiter...

Crows remember human faces. For years. If you wrong one, it will tell other crows about you — and they'll harass you too. Even crows that never met you! This is not just a bird. This is one of the most intelligent animals on the planet. #birds #crows #animas #nature

There is no amount of money, oil, or gold that is worth more than having bees, trees, and clean water.

Three and a half decades on from the Royal Commission, the crisis in Aboriginal deaths in custody is worse than ever, and as Senator Thorpe says, the lack of action is a "political choice" 👇 www.sydneycriminallawyers.com.au/blog/still-n...

I missed International Bat Appreciation Day yesterday - but it's still April 17 in some parts of the world. This is a grey-headed flying-fox seen after dipping into the River Torrens in Adelaide on an extremely hot day. They are a threatened species and play an important role in our ecosystem.

Dogs are the best.. 💪

Robert Kennedy would now be 100 years old. But his tragic assassination in 1968 denied him the privilege of watching his children grow up. However, the Senator would have been heartbroken to see the morally indefensible harm RFK Jr. is doing to the nation.

I can’t stop watching this. You can literally see the exact second this poor dog realizes he’s safe. He’s shaking, covered in scars and stitches, and instead of pulling away, he just leans into her like he’s been waiting his whole life for someone to show him what kindness feels… Original post

A mesmerizing sight on Florida's coast, eagle rays surf the waves in groups, conserving energy while hunting for food in shallow waters. Nature's beauty in motion awaits you.

Incredible

Sheer brilliance

This disappeared. But I won’t let it

"Do you have an idea of how we could solve the Black maternal mortality crisis if we can't say 'Black?'" I could watch Democratic House Rep. Summer Lee bat around RFK Jr. all day. She's magnificent.

Artemis II astronaut Christina Koch cracks jokes about gravity and how she still feels like she's floating when she wakes up from sleep. 😂

A mum comforts her little boy on the bus. He is crying about something. She says, ‘It’s ok. Have a good cry.’ Man nearby: Well done. We’re so bad at letting boys just feel sad.

Be kind. You never know what someone is going through. 💙 We need more of this in the world right now. Drop a 💙 if you agree… 🥰

A Bit of Good News: 3 Book Ban Bills Defeated in Florida pen.org/3-book-ban-b...

The richest 10% of Americans own roughly 87% of stocks. The richest 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks. It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.

We have to help people with math literacy. Some people, especially billionaires, think the market is the best solution to all problems. They do, because they've been propagandized by big corporations for decades to believe this. We must find ways of breaking through this propaganda!

Holy shit, I have NEVER been more excited for a movie.

The #BostonMarathon was run #OTD in 1972 and, for the first time, women were officially allowed to enter. Nina Kuscsik emerged from an 8-member field to win the race in 3:10:26. She would go to win the NYC Marathon and was the first woman to win both the marathons in the same year. #WomensHistory
