absolutely lost my shit in the middle of a teams call because while something was discussed i wondered what the early images of Lilith were and i'm sorry but look LOOK en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lilith#...
Incantation bowl with an Aramaic inscription around a demon, from Nippur, Mesopotamia, 6–7th century

It's a bowl with scrawled Aramaic script around the inside and a little image of Lilith right in the middle holding what looks like a tree branch almost like a wand, and her hair is short and blocky, and she looks like a 5yo drew her, she's brilliant, a rectangular nose and big round eyes with dots for pupils that make her look wild. she's also smiling. the most Mona Lisa smile you've ever seen until the actual Mona Lisa. this thing is so great. mother of demons, y'all. actually just read that it cold be the male form of Lilith. either way it's delightful

For the record, the proportion of professors at Cambridge who are Black is 0.4%. The number of Black people in the UK population is 4%. So the number of Black professors at Cambridge is ONE TENTH of what you would expect in a meritocracy.

I started a language exchange with someone about two weeks ago and now the nicest part of my day is yelling stupid shit in Japanese at monsters in Monster Hunter while answering questions about the UK.

The image is of a four panel comic. The title above the comic reads, "The organs are a team."
The first panel shows a drawing of a stomach. The stomach says, "I digest food so it can become energy."
The second panel shows a drawing of a heart. The heart says, "I use energy to pump blood."
The third panel shows a drawing of a liver. The liver says, "I take that blood and filter it."
The fourth panel shows a drawing of a brain. The brain says, "I will actively sabotage all of you."

I have checked what the Japanese media are saying and there seem to be competing names for the man. Some are going with ゴミ箱伯爵 (Gomibako Hakushaku - Count Trashcan) whilst others are using the katakana that you have for foreign loan-words and opting for ビンフェイス伯爵 (Binfeisu Hakushaku).

No I think I’d actually prefer if we pause until I understand how 6 = top hat animal legs, weirdly Christian kanji textbook.
A photo of a page in Remembering the Kanji I. It reads: ‘6六
six
The primitives here are top hat and animal legs. Once again, we glide over them until later.’

It’s a fine enough Sunday afternoon to pick up my project - setting up a distraction free digital typewriter that DOESN’T DELETE 80K WORDS WITHOUT WARNING, FREEWRITE. Gideon has opted to help, for a definition of the word ‘help’.
My carefully labeled electrical components. A box containing 16 labeled drawers with items like diodes, buzzers, buttons, resisters and pi zeros.My work space, which is my general desk. The desk mat is of furball inugami Korone with a rocket launcher. Sitting at the top is my emotional support charmander, a small plastic figurine. There are also two field notes journals. On the desk mat is a naked raspberry pi zero with multiple wires and a small e-paper display.A large orange cat is asleep on the deskmat behind my laptop. He has gotten around my request that he not chew any wires by falling asleep with his mouth gently resting on a delicious wire, much in the way that money was simply resting in Father Ted’s bank account.

I feel as though my elder cat, Gigi, would have a better reputation in the world if he didn’t grab my younger cat and hold him in place any time he’s still for more than ten seconds. Is he your little brother or your hostage?

After 10 days of trying to transition the boys to eating wet food in the morning and Gideon refusing to even countenance the idea, I caved. This morning I put down a bowl of dry food for Gideon and a bowl of wet food for Gigi. Gideon devoured the dry food…then ate his brother’s breakfast too.

Gigi assures me Gideon is not being held hostage despite the fact that to convince Gideon to accept any affection from him he has to physically hold him in place.
Gigi (medium black cat) is lying half on top of Gideon (large orange cat), with his chin on top of Gideon’s ear. He looks happy. Gideon is less pleased.

I cooked Christmas dinner for two with only minimum injuries. Now we rest and hibernate in wait for 2026. ✨
A Christmas dinner consisting of home pickled red onions, Yorkshire puddings, gravy, roast chicken, champ, roast potatoes, roast turnip, roast carrots and brussel sprouts (roasted also). My thumb wrapped in tissue and Christmas sellotape awaiting medical attention after cutting myself open due to my extremely unearned confidence in handling knives. (I have since received medical attention).A steak cooked medium well - the second steak I’ve ever made in my life - because my dinner guest was difficult and didn’t want chicken. She wanted two steaks. And ate all my champ then went back to doing trials in ff14. BABE THAT WAS GOING TO BE LEFTOVERS!!! I WAS GONNA MAKE LUNCH FROM THAT!!!!Two cats, one ginger and one black, fast asleep. The black cat has buried his face into his orange brother’s furry tummy. They are cozy and warm and love each other.
