WOW! This small woven basket is about 9,500 years old! 🤯
Looks like it was made yesterday rather than by hunter gatherers during the Mesolithic!
From the Cueva de los Murciélagos (Cave of bats) near Granada, southern Spain. 📷 by me

ALT My photo shows a small, shallow, conical-shaped basket viewed from above, woven from Esparto grass. It is displayed against a dark museum background. Two different colour twines, greyish-brown and a warmer tan brown, have been woven together to create a decorative geometric pattern, giving it a two-tone appearance. Height 4.6 cm, diameter 10.8 cm. This basket belongs to a famous basketry assemblage recovered from the Cueva de los Murciélagos (Cave of bats) near Granada, southern Spain. The assemblage is the earliest known basketry in southern Europe, made by hunter-gatherers some 9,500 years ago. Part of the collections of the National Archaeological Museum in Madrid. However, this basket is currently on loan to the State Prehistory Museum in Halle, Germany, for the temporary 'Shaman of Bad Dürrenberg' exhibition, which is where I photographed it.

This is quite frankly embarrassing and hysterical. We have the Cen Com of the world's most powerful country asking for tips on a nuclear weapon they've claimed to have destroyed. The desperation is smelling foul.
Rewards for Justice is offering a reward of up to $20 million and possible relocation for information about Iran’s nuclear program, including its facilities, equipment, and associated personnel, such as those in the scientific community, or the movement of any of the above.

Never forget that Farage and Badenoch wanted to join Trumps war with Iran from the beginning.

Profiteering from wars
Nine big oil firms on track to share more than £95bn profit two quarters in a row.
Causing inflation, poverty, misery, climate crisis all over the world, but they don't bear the social cost.
More fossil fuel drilling on the way.

A billionaire gives his son $10 million to open a business, and he's praised for being a self-made entrepreneur.
A single mother gets $200 in food stamps to feed her kids, and she's called a lazy fucking parasite living off other people's money.
Explain that shit to me.

Seems like @Nigel_Farage social media bots are malfunctioning. Same happening with @LeeAndersonMP_ or @RobertJenrick accounts 😂 might have something to do with the fact that Meta backend rolled out a tweak that essentially, for lack of better phrasing, digitally concussed the bots, so they can't completely touch base with the central LLM.
So it's defaulted to absurd nonsensicalisms from the bots.
Just shows that Reform is basically a bot farm. Something that we knew for a long time.
Wealth tax now!
BP quarterly $8.46bn (£6.3bn)
profits hit ‘obscene’ 18-year high.
Shareholders and execs profit from wars, household and business hit hard.
No curbs on profiteering. Will fuel inflation/poverty.
Chancellor didn't levy windfall tax on energy companies.

The Iran war has given BP its highest profits in 18 years.
It has cost US households $2,000, and UK households £2,400.
Fossil capitalism is based on a systematic transfer of wealth from workers to fossil capitalists.

Star Trek TNG had a profound impact on me growing up, and Patrick Stewart’s role above all: the secular, rationalist, egalitarian, post-scarcity (whisper it: socialist) vision of the future, a completion of the Radical Enlightenment project married to a sort of Aristotelian sense of virtue, duty, and deep purpose, a Shakespearean, theatrical-literary, humanist forgiveness and celebration of our foibles and fallenness, and Age of Discovery romantic call to adventure and exploration. I remain a believer that this world can yet be built.
