Brexit not sounding like such a good idea now, is it?

Today, December 6, marks the sad anniversary of the massacre of 14 women at the Montreal Polytechnic School by a misogynistic and anti-feminist man. That should be the reason for our "Je me souviens".

#FindsFriday! Glass beads were a luxury product in Bronze Age central Europe. These 3,000 year-old beads were found in the pile-dwelling settlements of Sipplingen and Hagnau-Burg at Lake Constance. They were probably made in the Alpine foothills from raw glass imported from Italy

Habitants canadiens par John Crawford Young, peint vers 1825-1835. Avec la tuque bleue de dos, on peut admirer un magnifique manteau innu en peau de caribou peinte. Ces types de manteaux sont conservés dans plusieurs musées dans le monde encore aujourd’hui. L’homme avec la tuque rouge porte un classique capot de couverture. Conservé au musée McCord à Montréal. #canadiana #montreal #quebec #canadianart #histoire

Found my Great-grandmother’s death memento card, with an actual photo printed and glued to it. I find it’s very touching to see her face. Her name was Eva Boisvert from Terrebonne.

Bravo The Guardian notification “Donald Trump defeats Kamala Harris to become first convicted criminal to be elected US president”

@AnnaAnthro Who are the Oompa Loompas in this remake?

@clive I was just thinking how wandering poets and singers seem to have existed for millennia, there must be really many examples across time and space :) There is a poem dating back to Ancient Greece where the poet (who sang) was hired by potters to sing for them and he is calling to Athena to curse them if they don’t pay for his services. Seemed very relevant!

@clive does it have to be American?
