A big clay Roman style glass furnace. on the left is an annealing oven. The chmney is on topand in the side is a gathering hole and tool-warming port. On the right you can see the stoke hole A clay Roman style glass furnace, viewed looking down the stoke hole. Some boots are arranged in the stoke hole so that it appears that someones legs are sticking out of it. An itiot is crouched behind the furnace so that it looks like his head is poking out of the chimney.

First they come for the comedians, then the cartoonist. Kings fear being laughed at. We have a funny bone to pick with/without a smile on our faces #Colbert #Kimmel #SethMeyers #DailyShow

This is a line from the Hobbit film, but still very much worth sharing as work inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien.

Wherever possible please buy your books directly from authors and/or publishers. Even ebooks (then Amazon can't delete them either). We make a better cut and you get the same thing or better, plus Bezos and ilk don't get richer. Win win win.

It's always been the case that "buying" an ebook from amazon was only actually a loan they could rescind at any point, but lately Amazon have gone harder on this, and it is 100% so that they can wipe banned books from your libraries without your consent.

Buy direct from authors. Get your files.

I know I’m not the only one going insane. They’re normalizing criminals. They’re propping up a monster. They’re forcing predators on us all. How long are we going to take this?

this is literally what it feels like to have astigmatism
A wider field view of Westerlund 1. A dense cluster of bright stars, each with six large and two small diffraction spikes, due to the telescope’s optics. They have a variety of sizes depending on their brightness and distance from us in the cluster, and different colours reflecting different types of star. Patches of billowing red gas can be seen in and around the cluster, lit up by the stars. Small stars in the cluster blend into a background of distant stars and galaxies on black.

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.
