A black and white photo of Mount Manaslu framed by a plume of cloud drifting upward, echoing the mountain’s peaks. Light and wind carve a temporary silhouette that hangs for only a heartbeat.

For a fleeting moment, the clouds perfectly mirrored the peaks of Manaslu (the 8th highest mountain in the world).

My photo shows a three quarter profile of an ancient Egyptian figurine of a leaping dog facing left. Carved from ivory, now a warm caramel brown colour with glossy surface. The dogs eyes are outlined in black, the ears are floppy, the mouth is slightly ajar (the inside of the mouth is painted red - not sen in my photo). The front and back legs are outstretched as if running at full speed. A lever under the dog’s chest opens and closes the mouth so that the dog looks as if it’s barking. Dimensions: L 18.2 cm × H 6.1 cm × W 3.6 cm. Dated to Late Dynasty I8, I400-I350 BC, reign of Amenhotep III who was Tutankhamun’s grandfather. The dog is mounted on a thin metal rod in a display case. In the background in the same display case is a ‘galloping’ brown horse, which is the handle of an ancient Egyptian fly whisk or light whip.

A very good boy! 🐾🐕😍

An amazing c. 3,400 year-old ancient Egyptian dog carved from ivory. This leaping dog opens and closes its mouth as if barking by using a lever below its chest.

type for books used to be set using little metal letters built into words in racks and then inked and pressed on to paper. If you had stock phrases you wanted to reuse a lot you could make a cast of them called a ‘stereotype’. The sound of them *clicking* into place, in French, is ‘cliché’

Dublin by night: The River Liffey

just flashbacks to Steve Harmison's first ball in Brisbane. I had hope before that that died straight away with horrid awareness of the weeks of misery to come

1776: The thatch is torn by the wind.

errrm...

...First 50–100 rabbits get punted or curb-stomped in the opening minute...
...By rabbit #300 the arena is a red paste skating rink; Elon’s now essentially ice-skating in blood...
...Elon, now basically a horror-movie slasher villain covered in gore, finishes the last few with his bare hands.

Some days judges really earn their money. That poor guy must have been sitting there watching the videos thinking "I only bloody went into this line of work because my name was McCourt"

tempted to try "who would win a fight between Elon Musk and 1000 rabbits?"

"Judge McCourt said he was prepared to spend all afternoon watching videos of a cat shittng in Mr Nugent's garden, but he wanted lunch first" is a scene that even Flann O'Brien would have been pushed to invent

In 1877 the Russian military commander Grand Duke Nicholas stormed to the Tsar against the foreign minister Gorchakov in the following terms; 'Horrible fellow!
horrible fellow! Pigwash! Pigwash!'
