This absolutely gorgeous #Roman enamelled flask was found in a grave in Buzet (Pinguente), Istria/Croatia.
It's a product of a workshop in Britain or Gaule.
Enamelled objects were typical for the northwestern parts of the Roman Empire.

Dating 2nd century AD.

On display at Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien.

Canada folks! Neighbours, there's an official petition to sanction Israel for its war crimes in Gaza, by suspending the Canada-Israel free trade agreement.

Can we get this more signatures than the 28,788 that signed the current highest petition by signature count?

This is for all the people who get all righteous about "illegal immigration". Get a grip.
Tim Oโ€™Reilly: โ€œAI has adopted colonialism as its business modelโ€.
Strong words! But he explains: โ€œExtract resources from others and use it to enrich yourself and your customers at the expense of those whose resources you have taken, without giving much back.โ€
Guilty as charged I would say.

AI has adopted colonialism as its business model: Extract resources from others and use it to enrich yourself and your customers at the expense of those whose resources you have taken, without giving much back.

Wanting to live in the end times is kind of cowardly since it absolves of you of the burden of building a better future. Some great compelling force will come down from on high and sort it all out.

Since you don't really know what times you face it's more responsible and brave to live as if these are the "Beginning Times" instead. And with great effort you may do a tiny bit of good that lasts a few decades beyond your grave.

Thanks to The Times newspaper for this shocking photo of the sickening, deadly terrorism being carried out by the notorious 83yo Reverend Sue Parfitt.

Due to the prompt and courageous response of the Metropolitan Police, Rev Parfitt and her fellow terrorists are now securely detained under his Britanic Majesty's Terrorism Act.
