I've learnt from The Odyssey, and I'm telling my dates that my unsightly ear wax build-up is to protect me from The Sirens.

Mornin'. An utterly glorious, joyous piece of noise, originally from Reddit, which still brings me stupid amounts of pleasure several years after it first appeared. Oh, I like this one...😎

106 years ago today, on May 7th, an undergraduate at Christchurch College, Oxford, drank a glass of port then left through the main gates for a walk. I've been thinking about him, & his walk, for years now. It's taken a long time for me to figure out why - why I've kept returning, near obsessed.

It’s also the 77th anniversary of the start of the Amethyst Incident, which means you should read this (again if you’ve read it before, because it’s not like you could read it too much)

Christians - don't just say "God said..." or "Jesus travelled to..." Try "For did not God say...." or "For did not Jesus travel to..." posed as a question. This mystical type style will make your nonsense sound more believable, possibly.

Every year at this time, I'll see a wild animal out and about and idly wonder if they get some time off for Christmas. Then I'll remember that (1) being a squirrel isn't their job, and (2) that I'm not a clever man.

#FindsFriday! An arrowhead made of #meteorite iron: around 1,500 BC, a meteorite struck #Estonia. A fragment of it arrived - presumably in the baggage of an amber trader - at what is now Lake Biel, #Switzerland. An arrowhead was then made there from the cosmic iron. From Mörigen, 900-800 BC. 📷 me

A corroded metal arrowhead displayed upright on a thin stand. The triangular point is heavily weathered and rough, with two short side barbs extending from the base. Its surface shows a mottled texture of rust and mineral deposits, giving it an uneven, pitted appearance

I've spent 25 minutes googling whether REM ever played a gig in North Norfolk, and if so, whether Michael Stipe did the "that's me in the Cromer" gag, and I can confirm that's it's a no on both counts.

Football would be better if the attacking team, when they got within 30 yards of goal, had to shoot. Not every time, but maybe every third time. I'd watch that.
