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.

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

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?

The #DUP , by saving Theresa May , delivered the #Brexit they whine & sulk about. Not just for their own people (who voted majority Remain), but for the rest of the United Kingdom! May they suffer the "eternal fires & damnation" , which they use to terrify their accolytes, for it.

#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 …

Someone criticized me for doing self-promotion. I'm sorry, but if I don't promote my Patreon then who will? George Takei? I don't think so. George seems like a great guy, but he is very busy saving democracy and verbally destroying wannabe fascists. It pains me to say it but George might not have time to promote my silly little facts.

Austrian merchant, amateur astronomer and selenographer Rudolf König died #OTD in 1927.

Such was his interest in astronomy that in 1906 he built a private observatory on top of his house in Vienna, equipping it with a double Zeiss astrograph with which he carried out many observations of the Moon. In 1912 he published a volume of illustrations of the Moon made by his deceased friend, the draftsman and selenographer Johann Nepomuk Krieger. via Soc. History of Astronomy
