Such a horrible feeling. Distress and confusion at the same time and no safe way to move forward

Perfection is killing all the authentic and exciting things about us. The pursuit has ruined more than it's ever achieved, and I feel like I have to fight the tendency to delay, cheat, and perform every day.

Imagine the flourishing of the world if we all got to show up our fully imperfect selves.

β€œcats didn’t sneak into Europe as freeloaders in Neolithic barns. They marched in with empires β€” and with gods.”

Bones suggest a lion gnawed on Roman gladiator's body while he died A team of archaeologists has found what they claim to be the skeleton of a gladiator who was bitten by a big cat β€” the first physical evidence of gladiator-animal combat in the Roman Empire.

β€œArchaeologists have analysed a skeleton from a probable "gladiator graveyard" in the UK, and found bite marks from a big cat such as a lion or tiger.
It's the first physical evidence of gladiator-animal combat in the Roman Empire.”

Veterinarians are now recognised alongside other health professionals in the ANZSCO (aka OSCA) classification system!

This is a win for the profession & is expected to improve data, modelling & support future access to govt funding & policy decisions.
