I've never had that strong a reaction to a flu shot. Or any other vaccination. The worst I've experienced is a sore arm from inexperienced or incompetent doctors. I guess I'm lucky that way 🤷‍♀️

Die AfD zielt darauf, die demokratische Zivilgesellschaft in Sachsen-Anhalt zum Schweigen zu bringen. Viele Akteure drohen ihre Handlungsfähigkeit zu verlieren, sollte die AfD regieren. Umso wichtiger ist es, die demokratischen Kerne zu erhalten und zu unterstützen: www.blaetter.de/ausgabe/2026...

🧹 Curses were not just a part of Greek and Roman mythology, practiced by witches like Circe & Medea. They were something ancient people tried to cast themselves by burying lead tablets. Archeologists have found thousands of curse tablets in Athens, Rome, Syria, and even England, at old Roman sites.

Everyday objects are the real archaeological treasures! Birch bark is perfect for making containers and wrapping. This 7,500-year-old wrapping was X-rayed, but unfortunately, it didn't show anything. It probably held something perishable. From the Mesolithic settlement of Motala/Sweden. 🧵1/2 📷me

Primate Profile #98: Bald Uakari Uakaris' red faces may be a sexual signal to females, as healthier males usually have brighter faces (there's no red pigment at all, just better blood flow!). Males however, are colour blind, so the signal doesn't work the other way! Image: @sea-kangaroo (iNat.org)
Bald uakari clinging vertically to a thin tree trunk. These are one of nature's weirdest looking monkeys. With long bright ginger fur all over, they are quite shaggy with a very fat and stumpy tail that doesn't look like it would be useful for anything at all. Most distinctively, in contrast to the rest of their body, they have absolutely no fur at all on their bright red head, making their heads look comically small. They have a small bristly white moustache on their upper lip, and round dark eyes.

Making something legally not mine in my car
Location: Columbus ohio
Could I put a bin in my car with a label to make sure cops know something in my car isn't mine. I'm 18 but my mom and brother are over the age of 21 and sometimes they will leave liquor or weed in my car. I don't want to get pulled over and get a possession charge for it is there any way I can make it legally not mine while in my car. So they don't have to come to my house to pick it up every time.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Green looks at Blue as Blue is dramatically laying down on the floor.
Blue: You can go ahead and go to that party. I'll just be here by my self, alone.

Green looks at Blue with a frustrated frown, as Blue sticks his tongue out while making a disgusted face.
Green: You could also come with me.
Blue: I don't like people.

Green raises an eyebrow.
Green: Don't I count as "people?"
Blue: Of course not. You're the love of my life.

I am Jane Doe - 1

The band played downstairs 
friends of friends of my ex
who moved out two weeks ago
still on good terms, I thought,
small party, for a three story house
ten people, their ten closest friends
I went to bed early, morning exams
double locked door, spread
in what passed for pj's, 
Body warm, sleep consumed
meat on the mattress.
I forgot that night, my balcony 
shared with my housemate,
the one with the pretty girlfriend
out of town visiting her family,
I forgot that night to check the latch.

Konsequent gegen sexuelle Gewalt zu kämpfen würde bedeuten, das Patriarchat nicht nur zu benennen und zu kritisieren, sondern zu überwinden. Sexuelle Ausbeutung und Gewalt ist ein Kernelement dieser Herrschaft, von der ALLE Männer profitieren - und sie ist ihnen wichtiger als unsere Unversehrtheit.

its charlie kirk rting an obviously AI image of a 4th of july parade saying "this is what we're fighting for." indeed.its the roswell level from wolfenstein new order. if you haven't played it, it's really something. before going into the cafe, make sure to explore the whole level, sticking around to listen to the npc dialogue in full. fucking dead on.

Necessity is spolia's iron law. For #SpoliaSunday we examine a C4-C2 BCE Etruscan nenfro sarcophagus in Viterbo. Likely unearthed during C13 works, it was reused for a papal potentate, much like Pope Alexander IV, then ruthlessly reused again until its identity was lost. #AncientBluesky 🏺
ETRUSCAN SARCOPHAGUS, C4-C2 BCE, REUSED IN THE C12-C13 CE. MUSEI DEL COLLE DEL DUOMO, VITERBO

In an excavated corridor in a building beside the Duomo of Viterbo, an ancient Etruscan sarcophagus lies in situ. Roughly carved from nenfro, a local grey volcanic stone, it features a massive gabled lid designed to imitate a pitched roof. In this case the peak of the lid has been abraded away, probably to fit the available space, and the lid itself is broken and partially missing, revealing a human skull and some scattered bones. Originally carved between the C4 and C2 BCE, it was likely unearthed on the cathedral slopes during medieval building works. Since a similar nenfro sarcophagus famously concealed the corpse of Alexander IV in 1261, this box was probably initially repurposed for a mid-C13 papal official. Yet necessity is spolia's iron law. No one dead is important enough to resist the requirements of the living. The tomb was ruthlessly reused, breaking the lid in the process, and the skull inside belongs only to its final, unknown occupant.
