Archaeologists have unearthed a Bronze Age metropolis in the heart of the Eurasian steppe: an early form of city as complex as those of contemporary, more traditionally 'urban' civilisations, showing how steppe polities were just as sophisticated.

Last few days have felt rough. I have a very short, but specific & important list of things I need to get done tonight, before I go curl up in a dark room. Anything else will be a bonus.

Attention friends! As a Cyber Sec Specialist, I feel a need to share this. If you receive an email from Ao3, alerting you to a password reset attempt, DO NOT click on the links! This is a scam to get you to provide your current password. Absolutely terrible. Safe cyber smart! #ao3 #scamalert

Tesla employees passed around photos of the insides of customers' garages, footage of what they were doing inside/near their cars. The cars were OFF at the time, a nude Tesla driver walking past their car in the privacy of their own garage became a Tesla office meme

Ok....so I've put an ep of Man From UNCLE on, but it will mostly be the Girl from UNCLE, rather than the chaps.
Bit of Illya & Napoleon at the start, but then it's April & Mark for the rest of the time.

Camera movement has existed longer than we might think, with pans becoming common in the 1900s.
Early filmmakers also simulated movement. This 1908 fairy tale THE GRATEFUL LITTLE MICE gives the illusion of a zoom by pulling the performers and prop book toward the camera. It's nearly seamless.

'It would be better if they could think of you as a person who is trying to help. Because that’s how I think of you.' My insides melted. That’s the only way I could describe it.

Asking now at stupid o'clock because it's popped into my mind, but does anybody know where one might be able to get teeny tiny models of shonky French battleships for a reasonable price? I want to make baubles for the Christmas tree...

Decided to rewatch The Good Place for a bit, because it's marvellous imo. Will also try to do some writing.

Headache that has been threatening since this afternoon has broken through. Boooo. Illya & Napoleon therapy might help, though Illya also currently has a headache. Might have to go with an early night instead....after this ep.
