My name is Oz
and wen you see
my big ol' legs
before thee
take a moment
to despair.
Cos you won't find
my trunk nowhere.

I guess I now have to do a thread on shoes in ancient Mesopotamia in response to this (which happens to be from one of my favourite accounts).

I’m not an archaeologist, nor do I really know anything about shoes, but let’s go on this journey together.
can't believe this ancient mesopotamia shoe wearing ass said people need to dress up at the airport

I Am Not Your ‘Inmate’.

"I didn’t always detest this term," said Lawrence Bartley. "But hearing officers use it as an insult reminded me to call incarcerated people — including myself — by our names." Story via @themarshallproject.org. #2021

Fun history fact! If you were born in the 12th century, by now you'd be dead.

Not only is this artwork by Jill McDonald adorable, but "Look at all us exhibitionist puffins" should probably be the Bluesky motto.
The wonder of it!

Art block update: I’ve only actually bloody drawn something! For the first time in two months! It’s an admittedly very old pun, but still.

Use, and I cannot state this enough, libraries. UK/RoI authors get paid for library borrows. More than you'd think!
I’m just going to block anyone attempting to justify or excuse pirating books. Times are hard, yes, but absolutely NO ONE needs to steal books. Libraries exist. There are umpteen works legitimately in the public domain. You don’t need to take income from authors trying to scrape a living.

Orange has always been a peculiar little cat…
Video that I just bumped into while digging in my archives. Back in October 2017, Tiny Orange helped @tkingfisher.com sign bookplates for the @sofawolf.com Kickstarter release of Summer in Orcus.

Good job, cat!

Hey, I *like* my rustic pottery, okay
Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

Update: not only have the local authorities complained to the US Embassy, in writing, to get this addressed, it is also catalysing the local project to erect a monument for the black liberators in the area. Was always on a back burner, now a priority to honour all liberators to balance the scales.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Amazing to think that at some point in pre-history one of our ancestors became the first primate to get a hairdo.

So I’m getting into my truck at the grocery store and a voice yells “Hey! Young lady!”

I am 48 so I did not turn, but then I see wild waving out a truck window. Old man straight off Duck Dynasty, full camo, beard to his sternum. He says “Your bumper sticker! Read books, punch Nazis?”
