I was making potato and leek soup and the recipe asked for five potatoes cubed. Even for potato soup, 125 potatoes seems a little excessive...

Honestly, this article on "Doggerland" is absolutely fascinating "The floor of the North Sea is now recognized as the largest well-preserved prehistoric archaeological landscape in the world. It would have been a paradise for the bands of hunter-gatherers who followed the retreating ice sheets into the region to settle there. They, however, were not Doggerland’s first inhabitants. Millennia prior to their arrival, the North Sea basin had belonged to Neanderthals, who lived there for hundreds of thousands of years." https://archaeology.org/issues/march-april-2022/letters-from/doggerland-mesolithic-submerged-landscape/ #archeology #history

At the age of 90 year old, Czech former agricultural worker Agnes Kasparkova continued her 13 year project to decorate her small village with hand-painting traditional Moravian motifs on the local houses. "She painted the designs entirely by hand without using stencils. Over several decades, her artwork transformed parts of the village into a living example of preserved folk tradition and craftsmanship" https://streetartutopia.com/2025/05/25/its-never-too-late-to-pursue-your-passion/ #art #streetart #womensart

STREET ART UTOPIA

90-Year-Old Artist Proves It’s Never Too Late to Pursue Your Passion - STREET ART UTOPIA

In the picturesque village of Louka, Czech Republic, art and tradition merge beautifully on whitewashed walls, thanks to the meticulous hand-painted floral patterns inspired by Moravian folk art. This unique transformation was brought to life by Anežka Kašpárková, a 90-year-old artist who spent years adorning her community’s buildings with vibrant blue designs, proving it’s never […]

"The Facial Expressions of Tethys" by artist Julius von Bismarck is ... relaxing 🌊 📽️ A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum.

I spent nearly half an hour this morning cross checking a Japanese print that is confidently being attributed to a famous, now dead, Japanese print maker on social media. 300 boosts on Bluesky etc. Google Lens, Tineye ... no hits at all before 2026. AI slop is everywhere (sigh). I guess the subtext is that I do try to filter the AI art stuff, but it's getting hard. #Art #Artist

It seems that the one lesson you can reliably learn from history is that a lot of people don't learn any lessons from history.
