My 4yo had a take-home art assignment to decorate a turkey "so he won't get eaten for Thanksgiving," so he decided to disguise him as pizza because "Who would eat pizza on Thanksgiving?!"

Felt. I am burnt out by existing. I’m burnt out right now. I’m trying to spend my day staying still on the spinning world. Sometimes that’s all I got.
I used to be able to suffer through the burnout of only having an event at the end of the day and nothing to do before but now like the energy of just burning time through the day legit exhausts me.

What an amazing legacy from the Cholsey Springline project! Glad to have been there for the unveiling and to talk to people about Berkshire #moths from the project's events. Huge congratulations to @clairecarvell.bsky.social @annadillon.bsky.social + Becky, Vicky & everyone else who made it happen
So thrilled to witness this 10 metre long artwork by Anna Dillon and Becky Carrozza at the launch of the Springline Project. Absolutely mesmerising artwork of the very highest standard. Proud to have been involved and also to have pulled the sheet off!

What if we simply ate Neandertals into extinction?
A new study shows that female and young Neandertals were consumed by H/ sapiens as food rather than in a ritual context, as suggested by traces similar to those found on other animal bones hunted by humans.

Today, a consumer spending mystery. Consumer sentiment about the economy is down, interest rates are still high, inflation is growing, tariffs have made the prices of goods go up. And yet, overall consumer spending looks good. But is the economy actually healthy?
