Jebel Irhoud !

Jebel Irhoud or Adrar n Ighoud, is an archeological site located just north of the locality known as Tlet Ighoud, approximately 50 km (30 mi) south-east of the city of Safi in Morocco.

It is noted for the hominin fossils that have been found there since the discovery of the site in 1960.

Originally thought to be Neanderthals, the specimens have since been assigned to Homo Sapiens and, as reported in 2017, have been dated to roughly 300,000 years ago (286±32 ka for the Irhoud 3 mandible, 315±34 ka based on other fossils and the flint artefacts found nearby).

“Well, sure. We can’t visit this prehistoric landmass, and most of us will never know what it looked like beyond what our imagination can conjure, but that's why it's so important! Studying Doggerland and Dogger Bank helps scientists, and us, build an accurate picture of what life was like some 15,000 years ago. We can understand how ancient people lived and survived under those conditions and gain a greater understanding of how climate change can have devastating consequences. A lesson many people have yet to learn. Ultimately, however, it's a piece of our history, not only as a species but as inhabitants of this planet, and that alone is reason enough to learn just a little bit more.”

Chat, I'm noticing a disappointing lack of Stobotnik agere content. What's up with that, huh? 🤨

Question... Robbie.... In the mob au? 👀

Get girlie popped KDHDHDH

At first I really wanted to make him like- completely unnoticeable and nobody fuggin remembers him despite being a member JDHDHFHHF- but I wanted to make him interact with Dr.Stone so instead he’s a member thats just rarely seen anymore (Wally totally didn’t get rid of him cause he kept being fuggin annoyin)

kinda all brawls no brains like sally- used to chaotically collect debts peeps have with the ol mob (still does but significantly less since now he’s a fetcher for Dr Stone for more harder to get goods the mob needs. The mob technically can go without the help of Dr.Stone, however he is a middle man that knows just about everything needed for successful heists/deals with his knowledge and name alone)

also? This dude doesn’t know what a bed is he sleeps on just about anything (can sleep like a baby face first in a trash can)

if you do not know anything about christianity but make spiteful negative assumptions about it because “errrrmm christianity bad” i will genuinely kill you dead. i just had someone tell me to my face that there has “never been a focus on the virgin mary” and how she’s “largely ignored or overlooked as being just jesus’ mother” and it took every ounce of my being to not descend upon them like a rabid dog starved

Every time I come across old pics of Taylor from debut era I’m always grossed out when I remember all those many times borshitta and other industry executives repeatedly said quite a few times “ you couldn’t tell if she was 15 or 21” and openly saying Taylor “appeals to young girls and grown men” 🤢

That’s gross enough when you know she was a child regardless of how she looked, but it’s even wilder when you look at pics of Taylor around that time. She looked like a child

Sonic 3 spoilers!

I got spoiled for Robotnik’s death before seeing the movie through gay ship art. And not going to lie, I thought the stobotnik stuff was pretty overblown. But holy shit I get it now.

i always thought it was weird they cut kakyoin from the part6 anime ngl

[waugh-bao]

some 60s keith and charlie because they are the cutest little guys ever!!!!!! 🥹💖

Awww, these are all such good photos. My favorite ‘60s photo of them (which may also be a rare example of Charlie initiating affection?) is this one from 1964, because Keith looks like his soul is leaving his body out of pure joy over Charlie resting his chin on his shoulder.

Just watched Sonic 3 with @chaos-emerald-lover and Sonic! - Spoilers below the cut!

(Don't worry, we took the pic way before the movie started so the flash didn't disturb anyone watching UwU)

I absolutely ADORE this movie!!! It lived up to all my expectations and I'm so glad they stuck to the original lore so well.

I swear, Shadow's backstory nearly made me cry! Although, I do wish we got to see a bit more of Agent Stone, him and the doctor have so much chemistry. Did anyone else spot the NiGHTS chao at the Chao Garden?

I could gush and gush about how much I love this movie for ages, but I don't have the spoons to write a big long post right now. How about you guys tell me what you thought of it in the comments? I'd love to hear your opinions!

Me: trying to sleep.

My brain: do you remember the memorial to the child paragon in Caridin's Cross?

Child Paragon – the deeds and name are unknown, the memorial in Caridin's Cross has been worn away by time or vandalized by darkspawn
