“agarrar una escala y hacerla gemir” Por supuesto las esotéricas y académicas exploraciones de vanguardistas como Anthony Braxton o Cecil Taylor puede que estén ,al menos aparentemente,a años luz de las innovaciones tempranas de Louis Amstrong o Sidney Bechet. Sin embargo en su esencia ambos enfoques divergentes están imbuidos por el espíritu de la creatividad espontánea, Continue reading…

Archaeologists from the USA and Mexico have found a previously unknown Maya city by studying LiDAR data from a 2013 forest survey.

It is located in the state of Campeche, and the researchers named it Valeriana after a nearby lake.

The city had over 6600 structures, and at its peak (750 to 850 AD) it may have housed over 30 000 people. The density of the buildings is second only to Calakmul.

My auntie keeps Golden Guernsey goats on our island, like many of our local unique breeds of livestock they nearly went extinct in the starving during ww2 occupation surviving by only one smuggled flock. They're super friendly and energetic and their colouration might be of interest :eyes:

Oh OH these are very pretty

Game Theory made a series on Welcome to Night Vale lore, and made a timeline of Night Vale history while also using the books. It was one of the first series Matpat ever did on his channel before abandoning it when his channel grew bigger and now he’s revisiting it. Using the classic editing and intro.

discovered an amazing youtube channel called real horror, who does history and crime videos. she only has a few videos on her channel, as she has a full time museum job, and she researches, script writes, narrates, and edits the videos all herself, but she's incredible. her voice is so soothing and smooth, and she is super respectful of any topic she talks about, always getting permission from relatives, or contacting the relevant people to get the facts (if they wish to give them).

but what drives me insane, and seemingly her from a few comments i have seen her make, is that a ton of the comments praise the work of 'the channel creator', but presume that she, the narrator, is not the channel creator and script writer. the say stuff like 'your videos are amazing! and i love the voice of the narrator', and just very clearly viewing the channel owner and narrator as two distinct entities. when she clarifies that it's all her, they're surprised.

you NEVER see this on faceless narrated male documentary style channels. it's presumed until otherwise said that they are the ones who also researched and wrote everything. but for her, they immediately think that a man is running the channel, and she's just a hired voice for a script a man wrote. it's wild to see.

It really says something about the (non-black) History Buff amateur community when they get all excited that Queen Charlotte might have had <1% African heritage but then it’s crickets any time there’s content about an actual British-African person because it includes the evils of colonization, racism, and the slave trade and it’s more fun to point to a privileged 99% white lady and call her a biracial queen.
