For #BoxingDay I give you...

...a #torc in a box from the Somerset hoard from County #Galway, #Ireland, of course!! 😊

"The torc is now bent into a double-coiled spiral: it is stated to have been found in this condition within a box"

It would be bad enough if the only way social media has used their algorithms was for ads. Facebook was caught performing psychological experiments on users in an attempt to manipulate their emotional states.

@j2bryson @anthropunk When I bought Lego it was a pile of bricks in a bucket along with my imagination making anything I wanted. Now you buy a really specific model, build that like a jigsaw puzzle and move on. Kids aren’t encouraged to use initiative to build.
