Between 2016 and 2022, archaeologists recovered fragments of #hominin bone from a cave in the central German village of #Ranis.
The bones were at least 45,000 years old, and their DNA has now identified them as the remains of our species.

Four years ago, in a pouring rain, we've joined Scots that gathered on Buchanan Street in Glasgow to say good bye to the European Union and ask to keep the lights on for them.
So far they are still tied to Brexit England, but at least we are still keeping that lights on, hoping to have Scotland back in the EU one day.

@andrewfeeney Yes, for it is the work of the devil.
I see that the Brexitanian Broadcasting Corporation is currently obsessed with Nicola Sturgeon. Are its senior news editors unwell?
@falken That. Cannot. Happen.
You know how screwed we are when the right wing ‘think tanks’ turn against Brexit - for those of you who haven’t had the privilege, have a look at the IEA - the very embodiment of Brexit, and right wing free thinkers, they now think Brexit is crap ….. we are soooo screwed

Behold the "UK Internal Market".
After the best part of a day of scratching chins and arses, none of us have the foggiest what the deal struck between the DUP and English government actually means in practice. As such, it is a work of political genius.
Well done, lads!
2017 : £1 billion to bribe the DUP to shove Brexit down the throats of the Remain-majority voting Northern Irish populace..
2024: £3.3 billion to bribe the DUP to stop sulking about getting Brexit.
Only the Tories...
"Labour will NOT reinstate cap on bankers' bonuses": shadow Chancellor.
"We don’t have any intention of bringing [it] back. And as a chancellor of the exchequer, I would want to be a champion of a successful and thriving financial services industry in the UK.”
Any questions?

#Leadsom is on #KayBurley talking about red tape with #Brexit.
She said, "One of the points about Brexit is that there are more checks at the border. That was absolutely known about from day one."
But in 2017 she said this:
"By cutting the red tape that comes out of Brussels, we will free our farmers to grow more, sell more, and export more."

Raspberry Pi is planning a London IPO, but its CEO expects “no change” in focus
— Yeah, right.
I am looking forward to my Raspberry Pi 7 which will arrive with Windows 11 pre-installed, cost a mere £25, and use the bottom 25% of the desktop for streaming ads (while snooping on my every keystroke). Because this is how enshittification proceeds …
Breaking: The so-called "Green Lane" for goods travelling from GB to NI is to be renamed the "UK Internal Market Lane".
That's the deal struck between the DUP and English government.
They'll be wetting themselves with laughter in Brussels.
