This Princeton University Art Museum photo shows a blackware ceramic figurine of two stylised dogs which look as if they are dancing. They are standing upright on their hind legs, facing each other, their front legs raised, with paws resting against each other. The dog on the left has its face turned towards the viewer, with snout slightly raised and seeming to smile. The dog on the right, rests its raised snout against the cheek of its partner. The figures are rounded and smooth with short legs, pointed snouts, pointed ears, and short curved tails. Their bodies are decorated with incised lines, which according to the museum, represent folds of skin, indicating that these canines are Mexican hairless dogs.

Heroquest with a 4 y.o. is an all in proposition. Trying to have everyone gather around the fireplace to cook marshmallows constitutes a quest. Grateful for the orcs bringing the tables and chairs.

Morning. Going to be 40⁰ here in Perth. Great to be alive.

I don't want to be that kind of guy, but... March 1 comes next week.

We in Ukraine are moving towards having lived through yet another godawful winter in the cold and dark under Russian missiles and drones, and we have been good at it.

Excellent. This is the proper way to report the situation.

That's bloody ducks for you. What are they protesting this time.

Just no. Thump a fascist.

A colourful reimagining of an early third century altar to the goddess Minerva. It was found at High Rochester Roman Fort (Bremenium), and set up by Flavius Severinus. Now part of the collections at the Great North Museum in Newcastle. 📸 My own. #EpigraphyTuesday #RomanBritain

Lovely spot though Beautiful country.

Lindisfarne Castle sitting atop Beblowe Crag.

Feb 17: Feast of Finán (†661), monk of Iona, bishop of Lindisfarne. Bede says Finán built a church ‘of hewn oak, thatched with reeds after the Irish manner’. He baptised Peada, king of the Middle Angles, and Sigeberht II, king of the East Saxons. Colmán succeeded him. 📸xlibber #medievalsky

Hunters and Collecters were a great band. I still listen to their song 'Throw Your Arms Around Me'. But when I hear the line
'So she'd your skin and lets get started' I always think of dusting.

Breaking another unwritten law

This is how you deal with fascists.

Russia owns Trump. It is that simple

😂🤣😂🤣

I don't know about anyone else, but my patience is entirely exhausted with these dribbling inbred toe-sucking morons and the scum in the media who are whipping them up.

It is totally unAustralian to do this. This should be part of all driving tests.

Seems my Discworld Goblin name is 'Of the book referent'. All fits nicely I believe.

Hands up if you had tis as a kid. Remember it well.

I might add that indicates that Liberal voters are more likely to preference One Nation or right leaning Christian parties.

So basically this shows us the leakages of votes in preference battles.

So if I read this right those voting independent are more inclined towards Labor than the Liberals. Very interesting. That is personally my own voting trend.
