Just gave a "Career Day" Q&A about Archaeology to a class of 3rd Graders as a favor to a friend and I was lowkey impressed with how well they listened and asked questions. Maybe the kids are alright after all haha

Spent a few hours at the Swedish History Museum recently, and among all the shiny viking objects on show, this simple carved duck from Birka stood out to me. Ascribed all kinds of sublime and symbolic roles, it may have simply been a kid's toy; a beloved, ordinary plaything without frills or fuss 🦆

Don't miss the boat! Take part in the Great Viking Survey before it closes on 19 May.

Quick to complete and wholly anonymous, find it at vikingsurvey.org!

I dont speak European Quebecois, will I be able to enjoy Clair Obscur Expedition 33 or should I wait for the Japanese dub with English subtitles so people dont call me a poser

I am flabbergasted that 100 men vs 1 gorilla is even a convo. We evolved as PURSUIT PREDATORS biologically constructed to outlast most animals. Even without tools, we take shifts to enrage the gorilla by yelling, baring teeth, etc. & kite it around for a few hours preventing it from sleeping till ☠️

Last night I streamed the Oblivion remaster and I'd safely say I spent about 2.5 hours alone on inventory micromanagement, shuttling rusty iron gear to the Imperial City Market, and doing the Speech minigame to max my merchant reputation and buyback rate.
Semi related, but yes I am mentally unwell

If the Elder Scrolls Oblivion remake doesn't get officially announced or released soon I'm gonna crash out

It's always disappointing that the coolest or funniest beer names/labels always belong to the worst beers. It's like they know nobody is buying a Triple Hazy IPA because of the taste so they have to compensate with flashy aesthetics

I just *know* that week 1 of release some speedrunner is gonna find a way in the new Donkey Kong game to dig straight down in a specific spot and end up coming through the ceiling of King K. Rool's bathroom and auto-win the game in 14 seconds or something

PLAY THIS (archaeology) GAME!

Katrine Haydock, one of our brilliant undergraduates has developed a video game for her dissertation to understand the impact of archaeological methods on gameplay. Please play it and take the survey. 🏺

Model of Roman dice tower at Segedunum Fort museum (Wallsend, Newcastle) which mentions the Picts: "PICTOS VICTOS HOSTIS DELETA LVDITE SECVRI" (The Picts are defeated, the enemy destroyed, play safely). The original was found in Germany in 1985.

Heading out today on a 30 day fieldwork mobilization and having to say "Goodbye for what will be 1/4 of your life" to my 3mo old baby is wild. Archaeology is a hell of a business sometimes 😓

This is insulting (unless Monster wants to sponsor me, in which case "check out this sick new drink!")

It tastes like Red and Blue Jolly Ranchers mixed together

Hmm. My last Instagram post is from over a year ago and somehow today for the first time since then I gain an influx of followers, plus comments and likes on random videos?

Smells like Zuckerbots...

From what I've seen online "Going Live on Twitch/TikTok" posts do better with an arbitrary selfie attached.

We're playing #Avowed with our elderly 1800s Archaeologist character Thaddeus Horngaard doing gun magic and exploring ruins
