Here's a couple of other peoples' pictures I found interesting!
The chap on the left was snapped while performing in the building where the camels were. Great use of a spectacular tinfoil hat.
The heron one reminded me of a local plastic heron that fooled me for months 🙄 .

Maybe EM believes his own AI too much.
The figures I've found, suggest the British Isles contributed a fraction of European immigrants between 1850-1950. And that doesn't include those coming from Asia and Africa.
And is he trying to suggest African culture has not inflluenced the USA?! 😁🤭

I did! I'll spare you the photos I took from the bus, but here are the camels:
Also an art exhibit at the Chapter centre in Cardiff:
...with some details. This one was by a lady who fled Somalia or Ethiopia. I presume it is her native soil.

We know from crocodilians' hearts that their ancestors were probably much more active. Today's cold-blooded crocs have to crawl efficiently because often they are too cold to balance on long upright legs.
This early Welsh croc relative can't ever have been cold.
Climate? Warm-blooded?

I had a Great time reading these! I've read the first 5.
Margaret Beaufort is "The Red Queen".
Read The Lady Of The Rivers first.
Then, The White Queen (her daughter).
Both were said to be:
The most beautiful woman in England, AND a witch.
White Queen was Henry VIII's other grandmother.

Interesting chap, Pask, with interesting activities and associates:
![From wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_Pask
Mallen described Gordon as "a great gadgeteer and had built adaptive teaching machines, for example, to train teleprinter operators, and he used these as a way into understanding human skill learning processes".[35] Mallen suggests that also during this year, Pask presented a lecture to Ealing College of Art on system theory and cybernetics.[36] He writes this influenced several students there, and represented a general ethos in the 1960s regarding the breaking of disciplinary boundaries for which Systems Research Ltd., became a central convergence point.[36] One notable project Pask became involved with involved the Fun Palace, conceived of with the aid of Joan Littlewood and Cedric Price.[36]
Sometime during this period, Pask met George Spencer-Brown who became a lodger at the Pask family's home while working at Stafford Beer and Roger Eddison's operational research consultancy SIGMA (Science in General Management) via strong recommendation from Bertrand Russell.[37] It was here where Spencer-Brown is said to have written his Laws of Form for long hours whilst inebriated in the Pask family's bathtub.[15][37] According to Vanilla Beer, Stafford's daughter, Pask is purported to have claimed while reminiscing about Spencer-Brown's time at his and his wife's household, that "When [Spencer-Brown] bathed, it wasn't often. He used my gin, to wash in".[37] His wife Elizabeth is also purported to have said, in reference to Spencer-Brown having forgot her name after he ceased to be a lodger, "I wouldn't mind, but I cooked for him for six months".[37]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vnuwgxs4lahd4o7ekrg55sus/bafkreid4mnr7nplm42puc4v7hyugg6gx74hhz6pstwmddxui25wohet3ai@jpeg)

This is quite funny in a number of ways. I suppose I'd be in the British Progressive Left Community - but whether I'd be on the Man Utd Supporters or the Man City supporters side, I don't know.
But the search window doesn't find my handle.

WoW! That suspended turtle skeleton is humungous! Is it bigger than the classic one I used in the bottom left corner in my GIF? Must be. Unless it's the same one!

Snapped one while walking to Lidl when I lived in Treorchy. It's in the top right of this plate from my book. The baggy inside half of the wing trailing edge is slightly bigger than a sparrow-hawk. Wings relatively longer too?
Falcon, top left, a cross, was flown by a bloke at the Bwlch nearby.

Ooh! Like the sciencey stuff! 😁My old website: Dinokabin- had a plague doctor!
A plague doctor/steampunk head I might use as my avatar some day!:
My rough try at my first season's steampunking hat:
I'll write my science works in the style of a Victorian Steampunk amateur scientist in future.
